IMPORTING SOUNDS FROM OTHER MANUFACTURER’S CD-ROMS

On the S3000XL, as well as having access to a vast range of Akai sound library, you may

also import sounds from CD-ROMs made for certain samplers made by other

manufacturers thereby giving you access to even more sounds. This is done in the SCSI

page.

Assuming your CD-ROM is on a SCSI ID other that 5, change the SCSI ID here in the

field to match that of the CD-ROM drive you are using and press F7 or

F8 as appropriate. The following example shows loading sounds from an EXIIIP CD-ROM.

Pressing F8 will show the following screen:

To load an Akai volume (as opposed to a whole CD-ROM volume), simply move the

cursor to the volume name field and press and/or . All programs that are

contained in the volume will be loaded.

To load a single program, move the cursor to the program you wish to load and press

and/or .

To load a program and all programs that follow it, move the cursor to the program field

and select the program you want to have as the first in the list of programs you will load.

Now place it at the top of the screen by using the DATA wheel, scrolling to place it at the

top of the list shown in the right of the screen. Move the cursor to the volume field and

press and/or . This will load the program shown at the top of the list and all

those shown below it.

NOTE: If any programs below the select program are ‘off screen’, these will also be

loaded.

For example, if in the above example, you want to load BRIGHT GRAND and all programs

after it, move the cursor to BRIGHT GRAND, scroll it to the top of the list using the DATA

wheel and press and/or .
