hello
i emailed bossus.com to planify a f*****g .wav (or .aiff) converter for the sp-303 and sp-505. i don't know if each one of you have done this yet, but i've done it. i also said that i'm a member of this fantastic wonderful spectacular great and good forum!!!! :lol:

...yes, it's all true...

yes
i ask them a .wav converter to EXPORT .wav files from sp-303 and sp-505.
is more clear now?
let me know.

yeah. why not just record the sounds straight out of the sp? i don't think boss would be offering anything that would support a long discontinued product.

yes,i've got some doubts, but we can try in mass to ask them with all the people of the forum....it will be great!

anyway do you know if sp-404 or sp-606 are able to read .sp0 files?

i want lots of things from roland too, chances are i wont get them. so man just record the stuff to your computer. not worth the hassle/

yes
but you must admitt that a .wav format from the sp-303 and the sp-505( i think it's the best, is the only which got a f*****g pitch function!!)it will be a wonderful thing to comunicate with pc and other samplers...

yea I think thats why the newer roland samplers all have wave support.

the 505 is kind of in a league of its own. I think they wanna sweep it under the rug. but dont quote me on that roland is crazy. you never know, they might update the OS someday and add crazy new features when better algorithms come out . peace

yo ellaguru , dig around in your control panel area. there might be an export.

cause im pretty shure there is an import.

there's no export.

no i think so there's no .wav export, but i haven't got a sp-505 still...i always look and search into his manual to find something positive about export...but nothing...

i don't hook the 505 up to computers, so this isn't something i'm after, but couldn't you just use a card reader on the smart media? drag and drop files?

personally, if i were trying to get info from roland on the 505, I'd want enough info on the OS so we could get it reworked by an engineer, and make a 505 version of the JJOS.

cuz you just KNOW there's potential in that box that we're not even seeing.....

^^^^^^^^^
drag and drop doesn't work. samples are saved in a monolithic format for each bank,

sorry fauna, but i'm talking about exporting .wav files, not only .sp0 files...is not the same thing at all... :wink:
