SP-404 Doesn't like Garage Band Generated Wav Files

Post by DrumminPete »

I was loading samples in an old SP-404, via the Compact Flash card.

All my samples were 16bit, 44.1khz etc... but some would load and others came back as UNS (unsupported)

These samples were made in garage band and saved out as .wav files

On a whim I opened those .wav files in audacity, and exported them out again as .wav and bam... now the 404 liked my files

long story short, the SP-404 doesn't like wav files generated by Garage band, unless you open and export those files in a different audio editor like audacity.

so strange...
