hey everyone,

So i was doing some housekeeping of my SM card.
I replaced one sound with another on the card (with a card reader on the CPU).
Then i put the card in and turned on the machine. The sound that i replaced on the card was still sounding on the pad bank.
How is this possible, after i erased the sound?
And if its saved in that funky Roland proprietary folder format as i suspect,
how can i be sure its erased from there to free up space?

Thanks

Use the internal functions of the 505 to delete and swap sounds around. Use your PC and card reader to dump/backup the Smartmedia card once it's full. I would not try to edit files using the card reader.

Also when I delete files from ANY memory card on my Mac I need to go and empty the recycle/trash bin to actually get rid of the files. If I do not delete the trash bin on the desktop the files will appear back on the memory card.
