Tips: File extension
Generally, each file has a file extension; ".wav" for a "BWF" file, or ".sd2" for a "SDII" file.
When editing the name of a "BWF" file, if you enter a name without the file extension, ".wav" is automatically
added.
".sd2" is not automatically added to the name of a "SDII".
Note that the display only shows up to 16 characters, therefore, if a name has 16 or more characters,
the file extension is not shown.
5. Enter a desired name.
You can enter characters by two ways as below.
• Use the jog dial to enter a character at the flashing point. You can move the flashing point to the
right using the [CURSOR/SKIP] >>| key.
• Use the numeric keys at the flashing point. When pressing another numeric key, the flashing point
moves to the right.
6. After you finish entering the desired name, press the [ENTER/YES] key.
After showing "Please Wait!" followed by "Completed!", the display returns to show the ABS 0 point (the
beginning) of the audio file.
