* It is important to note that the
BR-1600CD export process is at a minimum a two-step process: (1) the export step in which
the BR-1600CD prepares the WAV file(s) and then mounts itself as a USB hard disk for the
PC, and (2) the Windows copy steps. Because the Windows copy step requires a person
to be involved there may be more time required than displayed above to complete the export
unless a person is physically at the BR-1600CD as soon as the first phase of the export
process completes. All times above in the Built-in BR-1600CD Export column are best
case with 0 seconds between steps.
** Due to the length of the performance, the BR-1600 required exporting track 1-8
individually and copying them individually. This is the only way we found successful
in getting the tracks off using the BR-1600CD export feature. The BR-1600CD
reported HDD Full! each time we tried to export all tracks or stereo (i.e. 1/2) tracks,
even though we only had 5GB of the 40GB internal hard drive used. To verify these
results, we backed up our project, reformatted the internal hard drive, and restored the
single project folder containing the performance -the result was the same HDD Full! error
whenever we tried to export more than one track at a time. The resultant export
process requires 16 manual steps to complete (see note * above) with 16 possible delays of
time between steps.
