SAMPLE MANAGER (UW MODELS ONLY)
This menu is where samples can be loaded, sent, erased, renamed etc.
Samples are transferred to and from the Machinedrum UW via the MIDI ports. MIDI sample
Dump Standard (SDS) is used to transfer samples. This standard is supported by various
sample editors, but we recommend our free sample dump program C6, which you can find
on the Elektron website. For more information about how to use C6, please check the C6
manual which is also available at the Elektron homepage.
There are two methods available for transferring samples: Closed loop and open loop.
Closed loop needs both the MIDI IN and OUT ports from the sending device connected to
the MIDI IN and OUT ports of the Machinedrum UW. Closed loop offers resending and cor-
rection of erroneous data. If only the MIDI OUT port on the sending device is connected to
the MIDI IN port on the Machinedrum UW, the transmission will resort to open loop transfer
which offers no error correction. During transmission of the samples the method used will
be stated at the bottom of the screen.
