Little known fun fact - if the on/off switch is in the on position, even
though you don't have the power cable in or batteries in it, nothing
will happen when you attach it to the USB port. Brilliant design! If
it's switched off it should come up saying ">AUDIO INTERFACE". Press
the right arrow to switch it to ">CARD READER" then press ENTER followed
by ENTER, and it should show up on your system. There will be PROJnnn
directories where the AUDIO data will be stored.
