Exporting WAV files and importing audio CD 
or WAV files
This section explains how data from an AW16G audio 
track or from a sample assigned to a pad can be written 
(exported) to external media as a WAV file, and how a 
WAV file or CD audio data from external media can be 
loaded (imported) into an AW16G audio track.
Exporting WAV files
Any audio track of the AW16G or all sample data from 
memory can be written as one or more WAV files onto 
CD-R/RW media inserted in the CD-RW drive. This is 
convenient when you want to send audio data to your 
computer, or use waveform editing software to edit it.
Note
Note
• In order to write WAV files, you must use CD-R/RW 
media to which no data has been written.
• You cannot add data to CD-RW media that already con-
tains data. You must first erase the CD-RW media.
• You cannot write a single WAV file that is larger than 
the capacity of the media.

Insert CD-R/RW media into the CD-RW drive.

Move the cursor to the From TRACK field,

sample) that you want to write.
If you select “Tr1-16,” the current tracks of tracks 1–
16 will be written as separate monaural WAV files.
If you select “1–16,” the single specified track will 
be written as a monaural WAV file.
If you select “1/2–15/16” or STEREO, the specified 
pair of tracks (or the STEREO track) will be written 
as a stereo WAV file.
If you select “SMPL,” all samples in memory will be 
written as individual stereo WAV files.

If you selected 1–16, 1/2–15/16, or STEREO 
as the source for exporting, move the cursor 
to the From V.TR, From Start, and From End 
fields, and specify the virtual track number 
and region that will be exported.
Note
Note
If you selected Tr1-16 as the export-source, the current 
tracks for all sixteen tracks will be written automatically. 
It is not possible to specify the virtual track number for 
each.
