    Hi all,

    I have some wavs taken from my PC and put on the 2880s CF card. The 2880 reads the WAVs and will play them back, however they play back a grossly reduced speed. I have tried setting the TEMPO file with different BMP settings, but the 2880 still plays back the WAV files at the same super slow mo speed.

    I must be doing something wrong, any suggestions?

    Thanks much,

    So, Im having this exact same problem, only the opposite in that what i d/l onto the CF card plays way way waaay too fast, and as far as i can tell im doing things right (16 bit 44.1 – blank tracks of the same length) and ive tried changing the tempo file but im just not getting it.

    anybody figure this out?

    What I ended up doing was to play the sample from the computer through my hardware setup and record it to the 2880. Not the right solution but i didn’t want to screw around for too long. Since then I have never been in a situation where i needed to put a sample on the card.

    Good luck.

    What program did you guys use to make the .wav files? I know Acidpro 5 [the one I use] puts tempo metadata in its files. Is the 2880 reading something like that and overriding the .txt file?

    Just out of curiosity, what happens to the sample when the Tempo slider is changed? Does the sample change speeds accordingly?

    yes, but no matter what i have the tempo file set to, the track plays so fast that even with the tempo down all the way AND the octave engaged, im about 6-8 semitones too fast. so, im completely out of the range.

    are you using mono or stereo tracks for your imported samples?
