I am having problems loading programs onto my Akai S2000 from my PC (1.4 Ahtlon/Win2k). Some of the data seems to get randomised on the way. Has anyone had similar problems.

Cheers

Which app are you using? MESA isn't Win2k compatible..

I am using MESA on a Win2000 machine. All you need it a couple of aspi files which win2k doesnt
have and it should work fine....

But unfortunately i still have problems.
It saves the files off, but when i load them back on it changes which program goes with which sample, and changes some of the values of the parameters.

i'm running mesa on a 98.. it does stuff like that all the time.. crazy stuff it'll do on one program and that program only.

try keeping your programs on a floppy and just batch select samples to load.

Yeah, thats not a bad idea, cheers. I could get a Zip drive if i could find any SCSI ones about, they all seem to be USB now. But i really liked using MESA for setting up my Keygroups and programs and stuff... It would be a big shame if i couldnt use it.

Anyone else with any ideas?

Check Ebay for SCSI zip drives. Actually, if you're in the USA email me with an offer.

Cheers for the offers. But i am in the UK. Ebay has quiet a few...
I think i might wait a while and see if i can find any other solution. I cant give up on my PC quite yet. I am testing out NiceWave which seems like a good alternative to MESA. For those who are interested you can download it for free from

Cheers, everyone for their help.

You have to make sure that the S2000 is in a main menu. So just press the multi buton before you make any scsi transfers and everything will be allright.

If the sampler is in a submenu. It randomises setting like panning, volume, etc.

Cheers mate,
I will give that a go tonight. I hope it works.
I was going to defect to EMU if it continued to give me problems.

Thanks
