Chapter 6. Using Memory Cards
Importing Wave Data to the
SP-303 From a Computer
You can use SmartMedia cards to import WAVE and AIFF files
from a personal computer and transfer them to the SP-303.
Copying WAVE/AIFF files to SmartMedia cards
requires the purchase of an optional SmartMedia
adapter. Refer to the user’s guide provided with the
SmartMedia adapter when using such an adapter.

1. Format the SmartMedia card on the SP-303 (p. 49).
If not formatted on the SP-303, the card cannot be used
for handling data.
2. Copy WAVE/AIFF files from the computer to the
SmartMedia card using the following file names.
WAVE Files
SMPL0001.WAV ➔ Loaded to Pad 1
SMPL0002.WAV ➔ Loaded to Pad 2
SMPL0003.WAV ➔ Loaded to Pad 3
SMPL0004.WAV ➔ Loaded to Pad 4
SMPL0005.WAV ➔ Loaded to Pad 5
SMPL0006.WAV ➔ Loaded to Pad 6
SMPL0007.WAV ➔ Loaded to Pad 7
SMPL0008.WAV ➔ Loaded to Pad 8
AIFF Files
SMPL0001.AIF ➔ Loaded to Pad 1
SMPL0002.AIF ➔ Loaded to Pad 2
SMPL0003.AIF ➔ Loaded to Pad 3
SMPL0004.AIF ➔ Loaded to Pad 4
SMPL0005.AIF ➔ Loaded to Pad 5
SMPL0006.AIF ➔ Loaded to Pad 6
SMPL0007.AIF ➔ Loaded to Pad 7
SMPL0008.AIF ➔ Loaded to Pad 8
* No files with file names other than the those can be loaded.
* Only WAVE or AIFF files with a sampling frequency of 44.1
kHz can be loaded.
* You cannot load waves that are shorter than approximately
100 milliseconds.
* Waves can be loaded until the capacity of the SP-303’s
internal memory is reached. All wave data or files loaded after
the capacity of internal memory has been exceeded are ignored.
* If both WAVE files and AIFF files are saved to the same
SmartMedia card, the AIFF files are disregarded, and only the
WAVE files are loaded.
3. With the SP-303’s power turned off, insert a
SmartMedia memory card in the memory card slot,
then turn the POWER switch to ON.
“UAU” (WAV) or “AiF” appears in the display, and
BANK [A]–[D] blink.
4. Press any of BANK [A]–[D] to select the load destination
bank.
The pressed bank button remains lit, and [REC] blinks.
Here, the samples in the selected bank are overwritten
by the loaded WAVE or AIFF files. Be sure to back up
any important sample data before proceeding.
5. Press [REC].
[REC] lights up, and the dots in the display blink.
During the loading process, all Pads from [1] through [8]
will at first light up, and the display will indicate “100.”
Then, the indicators will go out one by one (starting with
[1]), and at the same time the number shown in the
display will grow smaller, thus indicating the progress
of the load.
The loading is completed when the dots stop blinking
and remain off.
* Note that, depending on the number of files being loaded, the
loading process could take as long as ten minutes or more to
complete.
* To cancel loading, press [CANCEL].
Never turn off the power while the dots are blinking.
This may result in corruption of data in the internal
memory or on the memory card.
