If 44/16 wavs loaded on 2k then they should be able to load on 2kxl with no problems.

Try putting the wave file in a computer wav editor and resaving it in the SAME format 944/16 wav).
Then try loading it in the 2kxl again.

this happens to me sometimes too. its really wierd. Never had this problem before with any other files or mpc's/ samplers.. Ide do like lamp said and change the file format your self. It could have to do with how you listen to save or store your files on your computer.

Can you upload the file that is not saving, so we can download it and check out the properties on it?
I'd like to see this file first hand. Or you can email me one of the files, a small one. Maybe a single hhat that wouldn't load. Or some othe small single something. I have my 2kxl here, I'll try and load it and see what's up with it if you want.

Yeah that usually fixes it, just a resave in a wave editor. Anything other than that and 44/16, I don't have a clue.

Sometimes I have the same problems but it tells me the wav isn't in PCM Wav Format. Also how do you get the loop points off os samples in the 2000xl to it doesn't repeat itself automatically?

Some samples off the internet have loop points set in them.
Anything extra other than the actual music/sound in the wave file is (metadata).
Get a wave editor, save as wav w/o metadata.

Me, I use sound forge (not free) and I can insert/delete all that extra stuff.
