How do you get the tune from the box to the PC and visa versa...? (sorry - never laid eyes on one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is a file and you can burn it, but you got no chance of reading it without the CAPA software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I am wrong someone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
