Note about the .Wav files on the SD card:
• The .Wav file must be located in the root (main) directory of the card and not in any folders.
We recommend formatting your SD card to a FAT32 file system (if it is not already) and naming your sample
files according to this format. Basically, this means:
• Do not use these characters: " * / \ : < > ? |
• Do not use spaces.
• Limit your file name to 8 characters (excluding the file extension, ".wav").
• The max number of files that can be located in the root directory is 512.
• When a .Wav file is selected, it will take a few seconds to load into the memory.
• A max of 5 .Wav files can be loaded into the memory, with a total shared size of 14 MB.
• SamplePad supports Mono .Wav files, with a sample rate of 48K, 44.1K, 32K, 22.05K, and 11.205K.
• When there is no SD card inserted, it is not possible to select the card location, only internal.
• Each pad takes up at least 1MB (even if the sample itself is actually less than 1MB, it will still use 1MB of
memory). The maximum file size is 10MB.
