dont sample such a large file. Try only taking the parts you need.

mode+pad7, hit a pad, turn the dial and find the sample you want to assign. Repeat

I finally worked it out before i checked the thread.

Now, how do I get a sample to keep looping?

This might aswell be my own question thread :)

Thanks alot for your help poundaproblem.
