2000XL files to 1000

im sorry if this has been posted previously, i had a brief look thru the forums to chekc, but didnt see anything..

got the 1000 this week, its dope, but im having trouble taking all my mpc2000xl files on to it... i have to put them on to floppy, then to computer, then transfer them to the 1000... but even then only the sequences can be read...

any adviceo n how i can get the sounds to be read on there?

cheers

this is the answer I stated a while back when someone else asked this very same question:

MPC2000XL - SEQ, PGM, WAV (when PGM file is loaded, only pad assign is loaded. Other edit parameters are ignored)
MPC4000 - SEQ, WAV, (No PGM compatibility)
MPC3000 - No compatibility
Z4/Z8/S5000/S6000 - WAV only
S1000/3000 - No compatibility

the 2000(xl)'s .all does not work on the 1000

thanks...

did that answer your question?

Hey bro, convert your files using this program called Awave. That's what I use and all my floppies from the MPC 2000 translated well into my MPC 1000.

Where is this Awave program available at?
