File and folder structure

When saving data to USB ash drives from this instrument, or

characters above are a placeholder for the le number, which

can be from 01 to 40.

number.

The WAV, MP3, SMF and MID les in the “EK‑50” folder can be

loaded into this instrument as user songs.

When you insert a USB ash drive into the EK‑50, the

instrument searches for the relevant les in the “EK‑50” folder,

and displays these les as a list from M01 to M99 in song mode.
