getting songs onto memory stick

30 Sep 2010, 10:51

I've created a song using the sequencer (I think) on my fantom g8. I've been trying to transfer it onto a disc by sampling it, but when the fantom does the sampling, iut runs out of memory, and only manages to do 3 mintues of the song. I tried to transfer it to a memory stick instead, but when I plug memory stick into my PC,it only plays 3 minutes of the song again.
How can I get my whole song onto it? The memory stick is 8GB
Thanks in advance

record it via PC, any other recording device or put more RAM (SDRAM) into the Fantom G.

When you sample/record audio on the FG it is recorded to ram. The USB is only used for storage of your data. The best way to solve your problem is either to install more ram, or use the fg as a soundcard for your PC and record with something like audacity or reaper.

Audacity & reaper are a couple of cheap/free audio programs available on the net. AUdacity is a free audio editor which would allow you to top and tail your wav files, record audio into your PC, edit with fades and fx etc.
Reaper is a fully featured Digital Audio Workstation (DAW). It comes on a free to try basis, a full license is pretty cheap, only $40 for the discounted (non-commercial) License.
I've never used Audacity, however I use Reaper all the time and I would heartily recommend it.
