Many things are getting on my nerves when trying tobuild drum kits and they are

1.most of my samples such as free net samples,maschine samples are not loading and i keep getting a error 201 message when i try and load them,yet some load and there are some that dont which is strange. Most of my very old recycled stuff loads like the dr dre kicks,just blaze stuff but everything else is 50/50.


2.When loading what samples that are accepted i go to program mode>zones and start assigning sounds to pads. When in the process the sounds always recycles to the beginning or has no recall of were i last selected a sound and i have to start from the top of the list.

3. I load alot of samples and can see and preview them in the sample button but half are almost never noticed in program mode when trying to assign. It cant be a ram issue cause there clearly loading in the machine but just all are not being in the program mode.


Im running version 1.40 i think and everything else seems okay but im just having these issues and would like some help if any one can give it.

maybe first of all you update to the latest OS. Make sure all samples´ sample rate is 44.100 khz or higher. Maybe some of your samples have a lower rate, that´s why you can´t load them, did you check?
