your problem is with bad compactflash card, this trade mark works perfectly, lot of people here use it.

change your CF.

Hi all, I'm a new member to this forum and I own a SP 555 just 2 days. I have the same problem concerning waveconverter and CF cards as well. Managed to solve the problem with the CF card compatibility (bought several of them and finally 3 of them appear to be fine: most appriciated SanDisc Ultra II 2Gb. Twinmoss Ultra X 512 Mb X70 and Transcend 512Mb), anyway the waveconvert always corrupt my cards whatever brand they are. I suspect the Card Reader... I'll try a brand new these days and tell you what happen.
Cheers.

ive had alot of random brands of cards. I find sandisk to be one of the worst when it comes to the SP series.

Im not sure about the versions, but I downloaded the one from rolands site instead of using the one that came on the 555 CD.

I don't see that waveconverter on japanese site is different version. Even it behaves like waveconverter from other roland sites (corrupts CF card). Maybe some of you guys could post a direct link on this thread?

Wave Converter Won't Install

Post by philadesigns »

I'm using the latest version of Mac OSX, and when I try to install the Wave Converter application, I get an "Install Failed" message and to contact the manufacturer...Anyone else get this? This is really a bad way to start my 555 experience...

Hey everyone , first post so thanks so far for all the great info etc.

I had a few problems myself with the waveconverter software on os x leopard 10.5.4, pretty much along the lines as others had mentioned eg. corrupting of cards, failed imports etc.

after reading about the newer version on the japanese roland site i went and d/loaded it from here

http://www.roland.co.jp/support/downloa ... 0000023922

It solved my problems imports all worked and card no longer corrupted although i still feel my card maybe a bit shakey as im getting some odd artifacts when playing back some samples.. kind of crackling and popping.. :?
