Owner’s Manual

Version 1.0 – English -

illustration represents ﬁles of a highly fragmented hard disk, of

which merely the lower quarter remains free for larger ﬁles.

When writing data, Adat Edit attempts to locate sufﬁcient

contiguous space. Apart from that, data is stored wherever

possible.

Especially with stereo recordings, you should not enter too

large of a value in when setting the

Maximum Recording Time

(long click on the recording button in the

Transport window >

Set Audio Record Path

). This parameter sets the size of a pre-

record ﬁle that is created each time record is engaged. If this

value is set high, and you then make much shorter recordings,

the hard drive will inevitably become fragmented.

Defragmentation

You can help Adat Edit work efﬁciently, by periodically

defragmenting the hard disk (also known as “optimizing”).

On the Macintosh, use defragmentation programs like Norton's

“Speed Disk”, AlSoft’s “DiskExpress II”, or La Cie’s

“Silverlining”. Ask your computer dealer which software is best

for your hard disk.

For Windows95, use the included defragmentation program

that can be reached via

Start > Programs > Accessories >

System Tools > Disk Defragmenter

, or other programs (such as

Norton’s “Speed Disk”).

The operating principle of these programs is simple; the ﬁles

are completely resorted so that they occupy contiguous sectors
