MRS-4 file configuration
The MRS-4 stores the following file types on
the SmartMedia card.
●
xx-yz.aud
This file contains the audio data recorded on
a V-take. The number of such files on the
SmartMedia card corresponds to the number
of recorded V-takes. When a song is deleted,
the V-take files belonging to that song are
deleted.
xx = song number (0 – 14)
y = track number (0 – 3)
z = V-take number (0 – 7)
●
Songno.mr4
This file contains information about the
currently used song number, global parameter
values, and mount information for the MRS-4
Card Manager (see below).
●
UtyprmXX.mr4
This file contains the default settings for all
items and song parameters. The number of
such files on the SmartMedia card
corresponds to the number of songs that were
created. When a song is deleted, this file is
also deleted.
xx = song number (0 – 14)
File compatibility with
PS-02
Setting file
Setting files for the ZOOM PS-02 and the
MRS-4 are not compatible. If a PS-02
SmartMedia card is inserted in the MRS-4,
the various setting files are disregarded.
Audio file
Audio files for the ZOOM PS-02 and the
MRS-4 are theoretically not compatible. If a
PS-02 SmartMedia card is inserted in the
MRS-4, some audio files may be readable,
but playback pitch will be different from the
original. Depending on the settings, some
audio files may not be readable at all.
Zoom Corporation assumes no responsibility for
any consequences of using PS-02 SmartMedia in
the MRS-4.
MRS-4 Card Manager
Software
If you have Internet access, you can
download the MRS-4 Card Manager software

allows a computer equipped with a
SmartMedia card reader to manage MRS-4
data. The software provides the following
functions.
●
