You know, I'd downloaded bluebox but hadn't tried. After reading your post I thought I'd test it and got the same thing. I made a little program, saved it, quit the application, restarted and loaded that same program and some of the files are marked as missing.

The manual says it'll first search the local directory and check a listing of paths that it saved when you created the program. I'll have to play with it some more and make sure I'm not missing something obvious.


Edit - sorry missed your post. Do you mean that you'll need to save the program file in the same directory? The manual makes it seem like you should be able to reference files anywhere, but then again, that doesn't seem to work to well :lol:

I have pad 187 because I use mac and I had the same mistake. But what it was that instead of clickinh save I had to click "export" I don't know if its the same in bluebox but when I hit export it saves the program and the .wav samples with it. Then I just place it into a folder so I can just save that into the cf card. Hope that helps
