I have a strange problem with Loop Divide on my A3K.

I have an A3K format sample CD which has some breakbeats I want to divide up. The loops come in samplebanks - about 10 loops mapped accross 10 keys all at the same tempo.

I move the loop I want out of it's samplebank and apply Loop Divide to it but for some reason none of the chunks will make any sound. I have checked their output (Stereo) and their MIDI mapping (same as the channel I am outputting to) and their volume and key-mapping etc - not that I should need to do this surely (?).

It works fine if I just use a wav sample. The problem only occurs with the A3K format sample.

Any ideas welcomed

I get this sometimes, export the loop to a wave and back again to fix it.

I tried that and it works OK. Do you think it is a bug?

BTW have you got any A3K format sample CDs?

on this point, do you use this function much yourself Jasper? I've never bothered cos I use Recycle but as the A3K chops stuff up into equal-sized pieces you get a different effect to Recycle which does it on the transient volume.

I haven't got any cd's, there isn't many though is there?

don't really use that function mutch myself except when I want to try something quickly, usually I'll cut it up with soundforge.

Its a good function tho - you save a lot of RAM.

Jez, no I'm not! :-) I want to get Wavesurgeon too, I hear it is better than Recycle.

Loop Divide does produce a different effect to Recycle which can produce unexpectedly cool beats.

BTW, does SMDI just use the SCSI cable or does it use MIDI too? I am hooked up both ways.
