Hi CD,
Thank you for looking into this. I'm considering selling my JV-2080 and upgrading to the XV-5080. I originally sold my S-760 because of these kinds of limitations. I loved the sound and miss it in some respects. When I found out that the XP-5080 was going to be able to load samples in I was thrilled.
My buddy burst my bubble when he told me about this. You have just patched it up. I suspect that he's probably trying to load all of the samples into a particular tone or partial or something that has a limit. Great to hear that it is not the case.
BTW, I'm just curious. The S-760 was brutally slow in converting Akai samples. How does the XV do at this task? Thanks once again.
Fernando
