Hi,

it should be a wav with 44kHz as far as i remember. There are wav files with different sample rates that it cannot process.

Also double check it by opening the wav file in some freeware wave editor to make sure that the file works and is not e.g. a wrongly renamed mp3.

Hope that helps!!

Bye, Dirk.

therico consider youreself lucky or unlucky...the 909 will take any file.
but anything not 16bit and 4400hz is gonna sound like crap...
