After you save them to computer you need to open them in a wave editor and re-save them as 44khz/16bit wav files. They should be fine after that.

Do you have a wave editor? hitsquad.com has alot of freeware, shareware
to browse through.

Try pitching down an 808 hand clap. There was a gunshot sound on the Roland R8 drum machine that was actually done this way.

Here is a website u can try out. http:/findsounds.com

Under file format deselect everything but wave, under minimum resolution
change it to 16 bit, and change the sample rate to 44100 Hz, then in the search box type in what u are looking for and you should get a couple of pages of results. Now in order to save the sample u will need to right click on the speaker icon that you used to play the sample with and select "save target as" and save it on your PC somewhere that you can easily find it later. Hope this helps..

I had a R8 and can wholeheartedly vouch for that statement right there.
I had 4 of the extra rom cards (26 sounds each at $86 dollars each) also, I thought I was THE MAN, what a joke.

Gunshot.mp3

Guncock.mp3

Just right click, save target as and then (Booyaka, booyaka) convert it to a wave file.
