Ni hao,

just make sure that all of your samples are in the correct format.
-->16bit; 44,1khz, stereo
Everything should be fine then.

Peace to China

1. No, you only can import wav / aiff
2. Not sure what you mean... Never had troubles with cf-cards.

An integrated CD player/burner for the 404? That would be so dope. :lol:

Let's give it a USB input(!) + W Lan and bluetooth too! :wink:

Just got a 404 myself and all you have to do is simply send your samples(.wav at the end of each) to the CF drive,not in the Roland folder and then you shouldn't have no problem...

You wanna upload your songs? Is it that what you mean?
If so convert your songs to mp3 and try
www.zshare.net

Or get a myspace account as far as this site is available in China... :wink:

Glad that I could help and why don't you just record yourself and mess with the fx for your drops since the 404 has a built-in mic?
