• Find a Bank folder in the root directory of your SD Card then copy and
paste it to the same root directory. Do NOT rename it at this time.
• Copy your audio files into the new Bank folder.
• In the new Bank folder, delete the USERBANK.SET file.
• Open the BANKTMPO.TXT file in your Bank folder. In the line, where it
says TEMPO = xxx.xxxxx bpm, write in the BPM number used to create
the loops; this will be the default tempo for the loop bank. Note: this
.TXT file must be in ASCII or ANSI format.

Importing Audio Files for RHYTHM Loops
The 22500 allows you to import your own Rhythm loops onto the SD card and
play them as your background rhythms. Your Rhythm loops can replace the
factory Rhythm loops on the SD Card or be in addition to the factory Rhythm
loops. Here’s how to import your own Rhythm loops onto the SD Card:
1. Connect your computer to the 22500 using a standard USB cable. The
SD Card currently seated in the 22500 should pop up as a Removable
Disk in your computer’s file system. Alternatively, if you have an SD
Card reader, you can remove the SD Card from the 22500 and place it
in your card reader.
2. Look at the root directory of the SD Card. You should see a number of
folders called LOOPxx. The Rhythm loops are located in these LOOPxx
folders. If you want to create a new loop folder, instead of overwriting
an already existing folder, pick one of the LOOPxx folders and copy it.
Then paste the folder into the SD Card’s root directory, where all the
LOOPxx folders are currently located.
3. Rename the new LOOP folder to a number that doesn’t already exist on
the SD Card. Let’s say LOOP25.
4. Double-click LOOP25 to look inside the folder. Delete the TRACKM.wav
file currently located inside the folder.
5. Copy your new audio file into the LOOP25 folder. Then rename the
audio file TRACKM.wav.
6. Double-click the TEMPO.TXT file also located within the LOOP25 folder.
There are two parameters that you may edit and the 22500 will
recognize: Tempo and BpBar. Write in the original tempo for the audio
loop you made and the number of beats per bar (BpBar). Four choices
are available for BpBar: 2, 3, 4, and 6:
a. 2 = 2/4 or 2 beats per bar
b. 3 = 3/4 or 3 beats per bar
c. 4 = 4/4 or 4 beats per bar
d. 6 = 6/8 or 6 1/8th note beats per bar
