SMDI Sample Transfers
You can use the SMDI data transfer format (SMDI stands for SCSI Musical Data Interchange—
pronounced
smiddy) to transfer mono and stereo samples to and from the K2661. SMDI is
parallel, not serial, so sample transfers can be made much faster than with the MIDI sample
dump standard. Cycling '74’s Max/MSP (http://www.cycling74.com) is a SMDI-capable
Macintosh software package. Other applications that may be useful include:
Bias' Peak (http://www.bias-inc.com)
Mark Of The Unicorn's Digital Performer (http://www.motu.com)
Dissidents' Sample Wrench (http://www.dissidents.com)
Sonic Foundry's Sound Forge (http://www.sonicfoundry.com)
Propellerhead's ReCycle (http://www.propellerheads.se)
Applications such as these have commands for getting and sending samples, which is how
you’ll make the transfer from your of
fl ine storage to the K2661. Once the samples have been
loaded to the K2661, you can use the Keymap and Sample Editors as you would with any other
sample.
When transferring samples via SMDI, the K2661’s sound engine is disabled, so you can’t play it
during a SMDI transfer as you can during a MIDI sample transfer. The average SMDI sample
transfer time is about 20K per second.
