none. hard drives are for storage not sampling. your memory takes care of that. if you upgrade to 128 then your at the max sample time it will do.

to answer your question you can't get more time if you already have the 128mb if you are sampling the entire 24min or 12 in stero you are not being efficent with your sampling. The hardrive is there for extra storage. Like all the songs that you finished the sampels you chop stuff like that. If you honestly need more sample time look into speeding up the record before you sample it.

i still only have the 32mb compactflash card with mine and the 128 mb ram and i have yet to run out of room? How are you flying through almost 20 mins of sample time man? It sounds like you are either working on more than 1 project at a time or loading samples that are not being used?

By pimpdawg156 Wed Apr 12, 2006 9:53 pm
on the screen it says 64 if you have the 128 installed right. because i bought this off someone and they said they put the upgrade in it. And my screen says 64 half right. But i just need more time i mean i sample alot of little second ones but i have alot.

you cant store samples on flash cards right.
