Use this page to import a TX16W sample, a computer-generated AIFF or WAV sample
file, or a standard MIDI file (SMF) purchased in a store or generated by a sequencer or
computer.
Important
The A3000 recognizes the file type by its file extension. The A3000 will not be able to
handle the file if the extension is incorrect.
File extensions are as follows.
.W
xx
TX16W sample file (xx: arbitrary)
.AIF AIFF sample file
.WAV WAV-type sample file
To import a file generated at a computer, begin by saving the file from the computer
onto an MS-DOS–format floppy disk. You can then insert the disk into the A3000.
Use either of the following MS-DOS format types.
If 2DD disk: 7-sector format (720 KB)
If 2HD disk: 18-sector format (1.44MB)
The A3000 supports SMF File Type 0.
FYI
Changes in pitch, loop playback, or sound quality may occur with some samples. Note
also that the A3000 may be unable to recognize certain AIFF and WAV files.
