The BR-800 allows you to import your songs from a computer into the BR-800 using the BR WAV Converter software. This is useful if you have audio files that you would like to add tracks/recordings to on the BR-800. To do this, your song files will need to be in WAV format. The BR-800 can import WAV files that are in the following format:
• Stereo
• Sampling rate: 44.1 kHz
• Sample size: 16-bit
If the song files on your computer are not in this format (e.g. if they are in MP3), you can use conversion software such as iTunes to convert the files. If you need to convert your files, you may use the iTunes conversion instructions below to do this.
The following article will guide you through importing WAV files from your computer to your BR-800:
