Importing WAV file from PC to Fantom

29 Nov 2005, 01:14

Hello Fantomizers ; )

I have a WAV file on my PC that I want to transport to my Xa. This is a collaboration with another musician.
What are the steps to transfer this file from my PC to my Fantom's CompactFlash Card, then to the sequencer to add tracks to it?
Thanks for your time,

Initial steps are format the flash card at your FXa. Copy your wave files to Temp/Audio_import folder of the card.
Put it into FXa. You need to go to sample menu and do import audio procedure. After this, you need to save the sample back to the card( if you select converted audio file destination as the card. If you just use user memory area, you don't need saving but it is just 4Mb so I doubt you can just use that little memory).
Load those samples at start up (-Load user sample at start up - switch must be On)or manually load them into memory.
Now you have user samples in the memory for your usage.

Thanks

dkpcola - will follow these steps. While I've been doing a lot of exporting, this will be my first import.
Once the WAV file is on my Fantom's CF card, it then needs to be sampled to a SVQ file?
