7—Project and Drive Operations

5. Set the Verify and CD Speed parameters:
•Verify’s setting determines whether or not the VS-2000 double-checks the
accuracy of the data it writes on your CD. Turning Verify on is always the safest
method, though it does cause the export to take a little longer.
• CD Speed—sets the speed at which the exported data is written to the CD. Try
the MAX setting to make the EXPORT process faster. If you experience
problems, try a slower setting.
6. Set the Save As parameter to select the type of V-Studio data the VS-2000 exports.
7. Export Track determines which of the project’s tracks are exported.
8. Press F5 (OK). The VS-2000 asks if you want to save any recent changes you’ve made
to the current project before proceeding.
9. Press ENTER/YES to save any recent changes, or EXIT/NO to skip to exporting.
If you’re using a CD-RW disc that already contains data, the VS-2000 asks if you
want to erase the disk. For details on the messages that may appear, see Page 368.
10. If a project is too large to fit on the medium you’re using, the VS-2000 asks you for
additional media as needed. Insert the requested media and press ENTER/YES, or
press EXIT/NO to abort the procedure.
Drive Operations
Before proceeding with the PROJECT menu’s hard drive- and drive-related operations,
here’s some information about keeping your hard drive operating at its best.
Disk Maintenance
As with any piece of sophisticated electronic equipment, you hard drive requires a bit
of maintenance from time to time in order to perform at its best.
When you shut down the VS-2000 correctly (Page 85)—instead of just switching it off—
you’re performing simple everyday maintenance, letting the VS-2000 properly conclude
disk operations, storing your latest work safely on the currently selected drive before
shutting down.
In addition, you’ll want to make sure your hard drive doesn’t begin to show signs of
“fragmentation,” which can slow down the VS-2000 and cause other problems.
Fragmentation
What Is Fragmentation?
When a hard drive has first been set up and has lots of free space, your VS-2000 can
write each file’s data in one single, continuous area of the hard drive. When the file is
played back, the VS-2000 only has to look in one place to find all the necessary data.
During a multi-CD export operation, the VS-2000 asks for each disk twice: once to label
the disk, and once to actually write data on the disk.
A reminder: each disk drive partition appears in the VS-2000’s project list as a separate
drive. As we noted in Chapter 6, when we refer to a “drive,” we mean a partition. When
we refer to an entire hard drive mechanism, we call it a “hard drive.” This distinction is
very
important to remember in the following sections.
