SP-FORUMS

Still looking for some help here…

Should these steps work?:

1) Drag "roland" folder from old CF card to Mac
2) Format new CF card inside SP-404
3) Connect the new CF card to mac and copy "roland" folder to new CF card
4) Unmount New CF card from Mac, put into SP-404
5) Press bank C/D/E/F.. and ...

Thanks for the message! I've already done what you suggested, the problem is that after the cf card is formatted and I copy the folder from my Mac to the card the sp404 does not recognize that there are samples on the card. None of the pads will light up when I press them.

Anyone have any ideas why this isn't working?

I'm confused as to why it won't work, i'm basically doing an exact transplant of the files from my CF card that works, to a new CF card, yet the new CF card doesn't recognize that there are samples on it on any of the card banks (C/D/E/F...)

I should also note -- I'm on a Mac (OS 10.9.1) and i'm doing this because I want to make a exact duplicate of my sample card for tour. (incase it gets stolen or beer gets spilled on it... you know)

Thanks a bunch for the suggestion! I'll check out the link you gave me and get back to you with any other questions I might have. Thanks again!

Hey guys --

So I need to copy my samples from one CF card to another. Both cards are 1gb cards, i've formatted the new card using the SP-404. I plug the new card into my computer and drag over the contents of the original card (and overwrite the "roland" folder to put my original contents on the ...

Seems strange that the volume pot would effect weather the output is mono or stereo. Anyone happen to have a link to a place I could buy a replacement pot that would work with the SP-404?

Hey guys, so my Roland SP-404 sampler is messed up. The audio only comes out on the left channel *unless* I press down pretty hard on the volume pot. When I do that the stereo mix is able to come out (on both the RCA outs and Headphone output)... When I remove downward pressure from the volume knob ...
