5 Specify the initialization format. Normally you should
use Quick Format to initialize the disk, and use Full For-
mat if an error message of “Disk not Formatted” appears.
Quick Format: Selects this if the media has already been
physically formatted. Since only the system area of the
media need be formatted, this will require less time.
Full Format: Selects this when formatting media that has
not been physically formatted. You should also select this
type of formatting if writing errors occur frequently with
this media.
Normally, it is not necessary to perform a Full Format
on SCSI media that has been physically formatted at
512 bytes/block. Perform the Quick Format for such
media.
Depending on the capacity of the media, executing Full
Format may require many hours, or may not be com-
pleted successfully.
6 Specify the file system.
FAT16 can format a maximum of 4 Gbyte. If you are
using media larger than 4 Gbyte, use FAT32 format to
format it. (In the case of FAT32, the theoretical maximum
is 2 TB = 2,000 Gbytes.)
7 To format the media, press the OK button. To cancel
without formatting, press the Cancel button.
After a floppy disk has been formatted by the TRITON
STUDIO, a 2HD floppy will hold 1.44 Mbyte (18 sectors/
track), and a 2DD floppy will hold 720 Kbyte (9 sectors/
track).
If you want to use a CD-R/RW for writing packet data,
you must format it (☞p.299). If you will be using it as
an audio CD, formatting is not necessary.
0–3G: Convert to ISO9660 Format
This command converts UDF format CD-R media to
ISO9660 format.
If a file that was saved by the TRITON STUDIO to CD-R is
to be loaded by another device, you must execute this com-
mand to convert it to ISO9660 format.
Hard disk memory is used as temporary storage when mak-
ing this conversion. This command cannot be selected if a
hard drive is not connected.
1 Select “Convert to ISO9660” to access the dialog box.
2 Press the OK button to execute the conversion, or press
the Cancel button to cancel without executing.
Even if data is converted into ISO9660 format, some
files may not be readable by certain devices.
0–3H: Rate Convert
This command converts the sampling rate (frequency) of the
selected WAVE file from 48 kHz to 44.1 kHz.
This is valid only when a 48 kHz WAVE file is selected.
When you use the Make Audio CD page to write a WAVE
file to an audio CD, 48 kHz files will alternatively be con-
verted to 44.1 kHz. This command is useful when you want
to audition the sound converted to 44.1 kHz before writing
it to CD.
1 Select the file or directory whose sampling rate (fre-
quency) you want to convert.
2 Select “Rate Convert” to access the dialog box.
“Rate Convert” will indicate the name of the selected file.
3 Use the Open button and Up button to select the save-
destination directory.
If you want to specify another SCSI device, use “Direc-
tory select” to specify it.
4 If you want to change the filename for saving, press the
text edit button in the lower line to access the text input
dialog box, and specify the filename for saving.
5 Press the OK button to execute the Rate Convert com-
mand, or press the Cancel button to cancel without exe-
cuting.
0–3I: Check Medium
This command checks the selected MS-DOS format media
for errors, and corrects them. Execute this command if you
frequently experience messages such as “Error in writing to
medium” while writing to disk, or “Buffer underrun error
occurred” while sampling to hard disk.
1 Make sure that the media you want to check has been
inserted.
2 Use “Drive select” to select the media that you want to
check.
3 Select “Check Medium” to access the dialog box.
4 Press the OK button to execute the check, or press the
Cancel button to cancel.
5 When checking has been completed, the recovered con-
tent will be displayed.
If you want to stop the checking process before it has
been completed, press the Abort button. Checking will
require approximately 80 minutes for 5 Gbyte (FAT32)
media, but the time required will vary depending on
the media capacity and on the number of errors that are
found.
