IMPORT Function

IMPORT Function

You use this function to load samples and other objects created by devices other than
the A3000. The A3000 is able to import A7000 samples, computer-generated samples,
and samples available in stores on floppy disk or CD-ROM. It can also import “voices”
and “programs” (into A3000 sample banks), and TX16W samples, standard MIDI files,
and AIFF and WAV-type sample files (into A3000 sequences).

You import the data from a floppy disk, hard disk, CD-ROM, or other SCSI storage
device.

• If importing from a floppy disk, you must first insert the floppy disk into the A3000

floppy drive, and then select the disk at the DISK function. (

• If importing from a CD-ROM or other SCSI drive, you must first select the disk (par-

tition) and volume containing the data. (

Use this page to import an A7000 sample, or an over-the-counter sample provided on
floppy disk or CD-ROM.

FYI

Changes in pitch, loop playback, or sound quality may occur with some samples. Note
also that the A3000 is unable to import certain of the older sample formats.
