I want to transfer all the audio files (200+) on one SD Card to another blank formatted SD Card without using SD Jukebox because my son has reformatted our computer and the connection between SD Jukebox and its CNC Data has been 'broken'. I know that the long way round is to re-record all the music back into SD Jukebox but I'm not sure I have the patience for that...chuckle.
Anyone any ideas?
Rog

Hi Rog,

Not sure you can do it any other way, the encryption stops you from copying!

Cheers,

s.

Sorry,

You gotta rerecord,

Barry

Hi Roger - my sympathies go out to you. What a birthday present. Are you still talking to your son!!!

We know what you will be doing for the forseeable future........Joan

Shucks...
Yes he's a nice lad really and it is his computer after all...
Actual fact I've got everything on this 512mb SD Card so I suppose I could upload it all off that Card back into SD Jukebox and then pop it into the 1 GB SD Card I've found that actually works with audio files...
But it's such a big risk to suddenly find that I haven't got the files either on the 512 or available in SD Jukebox...
Can't bring meself to do it just yet...
Rog

Sorry Rog but I don't think that one will work either. As I understand it you can only check the files back into the computer which has the original check out info and presumably that was lost when the computer was reformatted.

An alternative is to play back the files from the 512M card in the KN7000 and use the computer to re-record them using Audio Recorder or an alternative software package. There will probably be some degradation in quality but hopefully not enough to ba problem.

Good thinking Len - but I'm not that happy with the quality of Audio Recorder but perhaps something like Polderbits might work...
Cheers
p.s. But it would be over 5 hours work...sulk...

Hi Roger

This idea may sound too simple for words but why not copy the complete SD card onto your PC then copy from PC to the new formatted 'empty' SD card. I've done it with one of my SD cards - but that didn't contain any Audio files. Worth a try.

Hiya John - good to hear from you...
If only it was that simple - but the SD Jukebox software encrypts the audio files somehow so that merely copying in the way you describe is unsuccessful - believe me I tried that one first off...chuckle...
Best wishes and hope it's warm now up there!!!

It might be possible to do this using Fred Mellink's KN SD-Explorer Tool. It isn't very expensive and would save you literally hours of work. I suggest you get in touch with Fred, he'll soon tell you if it can be used. Sorry I do not use midi/audio files at all, so cannot tell you anymore than that.

Another person who could possibly help you is Bill Norrie. I think he has Fred's tool as and also uses midi/audio files.

Good luck
