Just reporting on a nasty bug that happened to me tonight. I was copying the real drum CD that comes with the sampler to a 8 gb EIDE harddrive. After a while the sampler puked out "disk is full or to many itmes" or something like that. To many items? What? I mean an ordinary file system doesnt run out of items, it runs out of diskspace! But here is the bad thing: The partition i copied to is empty and renamed! This isnt the only bug ive found out. Sometimes during copy from CD to HD it just hangs.

I just HATE the Yamaha filesystem!!!
Why the F**K cant they use a filesystem like DOS where the limit isnt 1 gb and where home PC users can copy files A5000 <-> PC without to much fuzz???

I just HATE the file system!

Nice getting that out of my chest...

Well, akaipro have been taken over by the Americans :-( Surely they *cant* get any worse. Maybe the German should bring out a sampler or something then

Back in US history, unions formed to represent the rights of workers who's rights didn't even exist, in the face of crushingly huge corporations. Don't we think its time to form consumer unions, to represent (gets a bit weak here) the rights of consumers, in the face of those same corporate giants. I'm sure if 80% of yammies new a5k's were returned, they'd pull the thumb out of their ass and say, "duh, do you think you should fix that problem now?"--- which my translate into an a3k fix!!!!!

Cause I'd really like to slam emagic with the same union power. Those bastards really did some unethical things with their release of 4.0.

So, here I'M thinking A4000/A5000. I want to order this kit, but are the A3k disk problems/file system STILL messed up guys?

PLease let me know...cus the prices are suspiciously cheap when comparing a comparable Akai (S5k)...and I'm starting to smell Yamaha compramise (in the Corprate Designs Board Room).

pluses and minuses. I don't think there is a champ out there. Suppose you've gotta figure out what short comings your ready to deal with on a brand new piece of gear costing you two arms and a leg.

bastards.

Hi all

I had an A5000, which kept freezing up when loading samples. The load time times from SCSI and floppy were so SLOWWWWWW that I gave it back.

I was surprised to read in SOS / and Furturemusic Magazines that none mentioned the VERYYYYYYYY SLOW speed of the A5000 SCSI. This makes it useless for pro studio use.

Have anyone experienced the slow SCSI load times ?

Regards
Bee

Wow, that's so disappointing about the SCSI load times. You'd think they'd fix that by now. Wasn't it the EX5/7, SU700, and A3000 that had the SAME problem?!
