REBUILD
A pop-up appears to confirm that you want to rebuild the

Rebuilding refreshes the take information inside the
selected folder, and recognizes files that are not contained
in takes as independent takes, making their playback
possible. Use this function after you have copied files to
the SD card from a computer, for example.
Press the ENTER/MARK button to rebuild the folder and
return to the
BROWSE
screen.
Press the MARK (Â) button to cancel rebuilding and
reopen the pop-up menu.
Moreover, if file names have been added according to the
following rules, multiple files will automatically be regis-
tered as a single take. However, this does not mean that
their formats (WAV/BWF or MP3), sampling frequencies,
bit depths (for WAV/BWF files), bit rates (for MP3 files), file
types (mono or stereo) and file sizes will all be the same.
