Importing Files from USB

In addition to the factory preset sounds, you can import your own sounds to the User Library to add to kits.

1. Start by adding sound files from a computer to a USB flash

drive (mass storage class).

IMPORTANT: Your flash drive must be formatted using

FAT32, and all WAV files must be 44.1 kHz / 16-bit and

located in the root directory of the drive (not in any folder

or sub-folder).

2. Insert the USB flash drive to the USB Memory port on the

rear panel.

3. Press the Sound button to open the Sound Menu, then hit

the pad, trigger in, or foot control where you want to import

the sample.

4. Press the F3–Import button and wait for the USB scanning

to complete. If Strike Multipad is not able to read your USB

flash drive, an error message will appear on the display and

return to the Browse screen.

5. If WAV files are found on the USB flash drive, they will appear in the Import list. Use the Main Encoder to scroll

through the samples, and press it to select a sample. While browsing, you can press F4–Play/Stop to listen to the

highlighted file.

6. You can quickly import a selected WAV to the currently selected pad by pressing the F5–Single button.

If you want to import multiple samples at once, use the Main Encoder to select the samples, then press the F6–Multi

button to begin importing.

7. When a sample has finished importing, it will automatically be added to Wave A or B of the currently selected pad,

and assigned to the User Library in the New Sample category.

Note: Samples will be automatically added only when Single import is used.

8. To add another sample to another pad, simply select another pad. The Import list will stay the same, so you can

quickly select a pad, select a sample and import it, then select another pad and import another sample.

9. To view all of your newly imported samples, press the F2–Browse button, select the User Library, and the New

Samples Category.
