Media Contents: Folders, Songs, and Files
Folders:
A folder is a storage location in the media, used to organize multiple songs in
groups. If you’ve saved hundreds of songs to a USB flash memory or USB storage
device, it may be difficult to find the desired song quickly. Organizing your songs in
folders, with similar songs grouped together (for example, according to genre or
tempo), makes it easier to find the songs you want.
Songs:
A song is the DDK-7 data for a piece of music, recorded to external media. A single
song can contain a variety of data, including the recorded performance,
Registrations, and so on.
Files:
A file is an element of data in a song. For example, a single song consists of various
files, such as Registration files and performance files. The following files are created
with the M.D.R. (The extension will not appear in the DDK-7 display. They will,
however, be displayed on a computer.)
In addition, one file (extension: .nam) is automatically created in each folder for
organization/maintenance of the folder contents. It does not appear on the DDK-7
display.
