saving on the STS 5000
Hey crew, I'm just wondering if anyone out there has trouble saving samples, parameters, etc on the STS 5000?? It's just getting more and more regular that I try to save a sample set and settings to them then upon saving and shutting down it doesn't allow me to save properly then when I newly save it again all the parameters and stuff are lost when I boot it up again. Does anyone know what's up with that and can someone tell me how to get around it. This is the 3rd time that I had to build the sample parameters up from scratch. It makes me postpone session times, etc. Wow!
The STS samplers are very good flexible to use but first you must spent little time to read the manual that will offer you great assistance.cheers.......................
Saving Programs
As you have seen, an STS 5000 multiprogram
list contains up to 16 different,
individual programs. These are loaded by
reference. In other words, loading a new
multi list (e.g. by calling a preset or
loading a project) will load all programs
as they are stored on disk. The multi list
knows only the name of the program -
multi parameters are stored
independently of the program values. It
follows, then, that you must store
changed programs separately if you want
them to be loaded later to reflect the
changes. If you don’t want to overwrite
an existing program, save it under a new
name. The reference in the multi list will
immediately reflect the new program. This
also prevents other multi presets which
use a particular program to reflect
unwanted changes.
Use the multi-program list’s context-sensitive
menu (right click/’Ctrl’+click in Mac
OS on a slot in the multi list) to save a
program. The following menu appears:
Save: Select Save to
store the program as
an STS 5000 program.
If the program
had been loaded in
the Akai format, it will
be replaced. If you
do not want to
replace the Akai program,
select Save
as… and assign a
new name to it.
Save as Volume:
Choose Save as
Volume… to write a
program, including
its samples, into a
specified directory.
The references are
adjusted accordingly
(unlike the
Export function).
This means that the reference in the
multi-program list now refers to this program
and the samples located in the
new directory or location. The program
and sample data in the original location
are unaffected.
Note: The term “Volume”, which in
Akai samplers corresponds to the
complete contents of the sampler,
refers instead in the STS 5000 to a
Multi.
Save as: If you do
not want to replace
an existing program
of the same name,
use Save as… to
store it under a new
name or in a different
directory.

This is something that has happend since the release of the first Pulsar! You could go through the topics and threads, do an investigation about the "technical problems" we have had, sort out the amount of mistakes that were "our own falt" against those that were from the software, and the almost none existant that were from CWA hardware... conclussion:fortunately it was a user error!! Yeah baby!!!!!!!!
you'll get an amazing 97% of "our falt", against a 3% of "CWA falt". This is relevant I think...
