Saving a sample
Patch/Sample mode
The MC-808 can use two types of memory; sample memory and DIMM whose contents are lost when you turn off the power, and
user area and CompactFlash card whose contents are preserved even when the power is off.
When shipped from the factory, the MC-808 has 4 MB of sample memory and 16 MB of user area.
By adding a DIMM module you can expand the sample memory to a maximum of 516 MB (if a 512 MB DIMM is used).
The user area can hold up to 16 MB, but by using a CompactFlash card you can store a maximum of 1 GB in addition to the user area.
When you record a sample on the MC-808 or play a patch that uses a sample, the sample is loaded into sample memory
(including the DIMM). However when you turn off the power, the contents of the sample memory and DIMM will be lost. This
means that if you want to keep the sample, you must use the Write operation to save it in the user area or on a
CompactFlash card.
When managing data from your computer or from the MC-808’s Utility menu, you can manage only the data located in the user area
or the CompactFlash card. You cannot manage data that is located in sample memory or DIMM.
