Dirtywave M8 Operation Manual
About Project Files
Project les contain all song data including chains, phrases, instruments, as well as MIDI
mappings and settings congurations. Output volume, speaker volume, and theme col-
ors are stored internally on the M8. Samples are not stored in the project le. Moving or
deleting samples will result in samples failing to load with the song.
Bundles
Since samples are not stored inside the project le, you may want to share your work
or archive a song before moving samples around on the SD card. Bundling a song han-
dles this. It creates a sub-folder in the “/Bundles” directory that contains the project le,
samples, and instruments.
