I own a sampletrak too and I use the same SM 16Mb as on the SP505.
The sampletrak is a sick machine, I love it!

Nice find Teewok! yer gonna love the 224.
And yes like I've said before you can use 4mb, 8mb, and 16mb. They are the same cards that work in the sp303, but not the sp202. The 202 uses the different voltage cards.
Remember to go to the 224 forums and pick up the ZMF editor. To be honest this is one of the best unknown features of the sampletrak.

this thing is tiny damn a lot smaller than I expected. Super easy to use I'm getting the hang of things quite easily. The pitch shift is sooo dope. Thanks formal for the info. I still gotta get me a memory card for it tho:S

thanks for the answers from me too... if the guy from the ad lets me know what size cards he includes, i think i will cop. Not as cheap as yours Teewok, but if the cards are larger it's a nice deal. If so i might be able to spare a couple.
Just wondering, do you guys use this machine to do everything from beginning to end, or use it more for processing sounds in ways that your SP can't do?
I'm thinking more of doing the former, to do stuff that otherwise would require a computer, but I don't know how nice this thing is to work with.

I own 4 of them. One is pretty much brand new with the green demo sticker and clear plastic screen still on it. I keep that one tucked away. I use all the other ones. I think I'll get the music off of them and finally record the tunes that have been sitting in there this weekend.
