Transfer Methods
   
  There are three methods of transferring audio files from the HDR24/96 into a DAW (Mac or PC-based). Each method achieves the same result with the same audio quality. It's just a matter of choosing the method with which you are most comfortable.
   
Hard Drive Transfer
   
  If you want to simply remove a hard drive from the HDR24/96 and mount it into your computer here's what to do:
M_90 (PC)
Install a Mackie Media drive frame (available from Mackie) in your PC in one of its standard hard drive bays. Remove the Mackie Media M90 or PROJECT from the HDR24/96 and install it into your PC. It will show up as the D:, E: or F; drive depending on what other drives you have installed.
   
Ethernet Transfer
   
  Ethernet TransferConnect the 100Base-T Ethernet port of the HDR24/96 to your Mac or PC's Ethernet port (or to a mini hub to which the computer is connected.). Using any FTP application such as Fetch™ or Cute FTP™, type in the TCP-IP address of the HDR24/96 and transfer the files to the computer. Open the files from within the DAW application running on the PC.
   
Direct Transfer
   
  Direct TransferThis is the easiest and most reliable method of transfer. Connect the I/O of the HDR24/96 to the I/O of the DAW's hardware interface, connect Word Clock and set one device as Master and the other as Slave. Record enable the DAW and press play. The project will play in at real time with sample accurate lock and you can monitor the results during the whole process. (Or go get a Cuppa Joe.)
