Import Destination Details

Imported music files will be stored in the "import" folder. There are two options to store the imported data in the N1.

To change these options, go to Settings - Import Directory and select from "Date" or "All".

8

•"Date" - If you select this option, a folder that contains the import date in the folder name will be created within

device, it will be copied to the N1.

•"All" - If you select this option, data will be imported into the "all" folder within the "import" folder. With this

option, only files with changes will be imported to the N1. Files with no changes from the previous import will

not be imported.

Importing from a Music CD

To import tracks from a music CD, follow the procedure below.

Note: Importing tracks from a music CD requires an optical drive (not included). Use only the compatible optical
drive(s) listed on melco-audio.com. Depending on the manufacture date, circumstances, and specifications of a
connected optical drive, it may not work even if the optical drive is listed in our compatible devices.

1 Connect an optical drive to the USB 3.0 port.

2 Insert a music CD to import its tracks.

3 When the following screen is displayed, press the Down button ( ) and select "Import", then press the

Menu/Enter button ( ).

4 When the CD is detected, the N1 will try to get the album information automatically. If the N1 is connected to

high-quality sound without using a computer.

18

USB-DAC

N1

Configuring for USB-DAC

The N1 supports four different playback modes for DSD files (.dsf, .dff). You can select from the following modes:

•"Standard" - The default and recommended playback mode. If a connected USB-DAC supports Melco Markerless

DSD, the DSD file will be played by the Markerless DSD playback; otherwise, the DSD file will be played by DSD

over PCM.

When this mode is configured, the

or icon will appear on the home screen.

•"DSD over PCM priority mode" - This mode applies DSD over PCM even if a connected USB-DAC supports

Markerless DSD playback. Except for this behavior, this mode is the same as standard mode.

When this mode is configured, the icon will appear on the home screen.

•"PCM only" - This mode will convert DSD files to PCM files. If connecting a USB-DAC that only supports playing

PCM files, selecting this mode is recommended. Except for this behavior, this mode is the same as standard

mode.

When this mode is configured, the icon will appear on the home screen.

•"Legacy" - This mode will be applied on playback. This mode is provided for compatibility for firmware version

3.00 to 3.21 and it is different from standard mode. This mode always play the DSD files by DSD over PCM.

Latency and set a gap time. This gap time will be added to the first track of the playlist. The default gap time is 0.75
seconds.

•If the beginning of a music file is not played correctly with the default value, make the gap time longer.

•If the default value works correctly, the switch to the next music file will become faster when you make the gap

time shorter.

Deleting Each File Manually

Open the N1 shared folder from the computer, referring to the "Confirming Imported Files" section above, and

delete each file manually.

28

Chapter 3 Advanced Usage

Using Direct Mode

Set the N1 to direct mode if it is directly connected to the Network Audio Player with an Ethernet cable and no other

devices are on the network. If using this mode, the N1 will not be connected to the router so it won't be able to

controlled using the app. For playback, use the Network Audio Player's display panel and remote controller to select

a music file. If a Network Audio Player is not available, it will not be able to select a music file.

To configure direct mode, follow the procedure below.

Note: Give the N1 plenty of space for airflow. Do not stack it with other devices that may give off heat.

Network Audio Player

N1(Rear)

1 Connect the N1's player port and a Network Audio Player with the provided Ethernet cable. Do not connect

the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port for a router or hub.

2 Turn on the Network Audio Player.

3 Press the Menu/Enter button (

) to display the menu list at the home screen.

4 Press the Down button ( ) and select "Settings", then press the Menu/Enter button ( ).

29

5 Press the Down button ( ) and select "Network", then press the Menu/Enter button ( ).

6 Select "Player" and press the Menu/Enter button ( ).

7 Press the Down button ( ) and select "Direct Mode", then press the Menu/Enter button ( ).

Note: To connect the N1 and the Network Audio Player to the network via the router or hub, use network mode
instead. Select "Network Mode" at step 7 above to use network mode.

Changing the RAID Mode

The N1 is configured with a RAID array by default.

To change the RAID mode from the default, follow the procedure below. Changing the RAID mode will delete all

data on the drive. If needed, back up any data before continuing.

Spanned

Combines 2 drives in the N1 into a single array. The usable drive space is the total space of all drives used. Data is

written to the first drive, then the second drive once the first drive becomes full. If a single drive on the array fails,

then all data on the array is lost.

RAID 0

Combines 2 drives in the N1 into a single array. The usable drive space is the total space of all drives used. This

simple RAID mode offers faster performance than a spanned array. If a single drive on the array fails, then all data

on the array is lost. Amongst the three RAID modes, RAID 0 does not offer any redundancy. If secure data storage is

critical, using RAID 0 is not recommended.

30

RAID 1

Combines 2 drives in the N1 into a mirrored array. The usable drive space on the array is the capacity of a single

drive. Identical data is written to each drive. If a drive is damaged, data can be recovered by replacing the damaged

drive. As long as one drive on the array remains undamaged, all data on the array can be recovered.

Erasing Data on the N1 Completely

Under some circumstances, data from formatted drives can be recovered. The drive erasure process mentioned in

this section does a much more thorough job of erasing data by removing all data from a drive in a way that makes it

nearly impossible to recover with current tools. All data on the drives is completely erased.

Note: This erasure process will take a few hours to complete. Make sure the N1 is powered on during the process.
Other functions will become unavailable while the erasure process is running.

Typically, follow the procedure in the "Formatting Internal Drives" section above to delete all data off a drive. This

procedure below is not recommended for common use.
