What kind of SD card should I use?
The Idoru P-1 comes with a 32GB SD card that is already correctly formatted as FAT32, and ready to use for your Idoru session.
Ensure you use a good quality SD card with your P-1. Cheaper brand cards have unreliable speeds and are more likely to become corrupted.
Idoru P-1 supports SD, SDHC, and SDXC cards. It is important that card has fast enough random read speed, for this reason we recommend Class 10 SD cards with A1 class (Speed Class 1), such as this one. The SD card should be formatted as FAT32 (if it is a 32GB card then it should already be FAT32 when you buy it). This means the maximum storage available will be 32GB on the card, even if you use a larger card. 32GB storage can contain approximately 50 hours of 16bit 44.1kHz wav files.
<aside> 💡 On some versions of Windows it is not possible to format cards larger than 32GB to FAT32 using the system tools. In this case you can use a 3rd party app such as described here: https://www.diskgenius.com/resource/how-to-format-sd-card-to-fat32.html

<aside> ⚠️ We have found issues with the following specific model of SD card, and recommend you do not use them with the P-1:
SanDisk Extreme PLUS SDHC 100 MB/s UHS-I U3 Class10 32GB

Many 32GB cards will already be correctly formatted as FAT32 when you buy them. But if you need to format an SD card for use with the P-1, here is how you do it:
On Mac OS
Insert SD card in P-1 and connect via USB to Mac, or use SD card reader.
Search for Disk Utility in Launchpad and open it.
Select your SD Card and click Erase.
