C6 sample transfer help...

2006-10-24 by roby@sweet-trip.net

Hello

I can't figure out how to transfer samples from the UW to C6 correctly. 
The data gets tranfered, but the final file is not recognized as an audio
file, even when I save it as a wav, aif or aiff.  The file also does not
play on audio players like winamp or VLan.  Transfering from C6 to the UW
is fast and works like a charm.

I also tried sending all my samples from the UW to C6 using 'send ALL'
option on the UW, but C6 instead of creating a list all samples, it
records one big file.  For example, I have 22 samples using 52% memory,
and what I get in C6 is one big 1500k file!

What am I doing wrong?

C6 stores the samples in sysex format, that's why.

So, am I forced to use an external editor that supports SDS so I can save
and archive samples?  I may be wrong, but didnt the C6 beta
loaded/received/recorded audio files from the UW?  It's also confusing
since C6 gives you options to save files recieved as sys, wav, aif, aiff,
so you would think that you could...

Anyway, is there a way to convert or extract the audio samples from the
sysex file??

Sorry if I sound like I'm bitching
