Are you using C6?

Are you using any special characters in the name? I can’t imagine that would be an issue but you never know.

If your RYTM is brand new then you could re: format the +Drive and reset to factory default and try again.

If not, sounds like a question for Support.

It seems to me you’re in the “factory” sample folder which is write protected. Have you tried creating the folder in the “incoming” directory?

and how do you reset the +drive

Page 58 of the manual.

I’d double check first that you’re not trying to create a folder / upload to the Factory folder like Xidnpnlss suggests.

Hi!

I take advantage of this post to explain my problem.
Anytime i do transfer some samples to my AR i’ve got numbers instead of file names.
Hope someone knows what i 'm talking about.
Thanks for Helping

Unfortunately names will not transfer over on the current OS. You’ll have to rename them on the AR again. Should be fixed soon I hope cause it sucks!

Yes it does! Thanks for your reply bro :slight_smile:

You can send named files. I do it all the time. Make sure you check the right boxes (the 1st and 2nd, I think).

Are you referring to some boxes in the C6?

Yes

Names works for me on C6. In config I have all 3 Sample checkboxes ON.

Correct, “extended SDS” is the box you want to check for preserving file names…

Ok i get it now :zonked: i downloaded the v 1.4 of C6. I don’t know where i found this old version.
Thanks guys! What an effective and helpfull forum :slight_smile:

Hi i was also struggling with the 1.4 version
Now at least the samples are being sent to a new directory i created

However i still dont quite understand the architecture

I initially tried to send the samples to free spaces on the + drive (bank B)
as you would do with the A4,

but the AR just showed “waiting”

So where is my folder full of samples if its not on the + drive?

(p.s thanks to Lars i tried using google to search rather than the internal search engine, its def much better,
put “site:www.elektronauts.com your problem” in google)

But i mostly came across unfinished threads
