Recording to SD Card
1. Insert a FAT16-formatted SD card or FAT32-formatted SDHC card into your

An SDHC card will provide up to 32 GB. Your transport controls will flash when your mixer recognizes the SD card.

Once complete, you can transfer your recordings onto your computer by inserting the SD card into your computer’s SD card reader and copying the files to your computer’s hard drive. Each file will be labeled with an “SL-ARc” heading, followed by a number.
