Yo people, i've got a little problem here!

When I save my samples from the E5000 to a floppy as .wav they dont work on my pc. I can load my disk up and it shows the samples being there but when i go to play it (in media player or real one) it says the samples could not be found!!!

Can anyone help me as it is very annoying!!!!

thats because emu formats the floppy into emu format. If your using EOS 4.7 i believe you can format in FAT32, which theoretically your computer would be able to read
If your trying to get samples on your pc I tihnk your best bet is to get a scsi card. Itll cost you maybe $100 but youll be able to send samples no problem, in no time at all, none of this floppy disk madness
hope it helps

Yeah i can format the disk ok on my pc (as FAT) then i save the samples to the disk!

If i formatt the disk on the emu, it wont let me save it as .Wav file!

I dont wont to have to buy a SCI thingy as i'm a tight bastard!

Ezman is right.

Honestly dude buy a scsi card, it will save you tons of time and if very much worth it.
I use my scsi card almost everytime i turn on my emu....something to think about
