"In the XBase09, the HiHat, Rim, Clap, Ride and Crash are samples stored as 8 bit data on a chip. Xrom is a circuit that replaces this chip and adds four times the memory. There are four sample banks available which can be selected by holding the SHIFT/FUNC button while pressing ENTER one to four times. What samples are on the extensions? The choice is yours! Samples can be loaded over MIDI Sysex - you create your own sample banks. Want a TR-808, TR-606 or RZ1? No problem: load the samples into your XBase09 and push the ENTER & SHIFT buttons one to four times (depends on desired bank number). Done!

Using the converter software, audio files can be converted into the Sysex format and then sent to the XBase09 using a MIDI software like MIDI-OX for PC or SysExLibrarian for Mac.

Lenghth of the samples:
Closed HiHat & Rimshot: 182ms @ 44.1 kHz

Open HiHat & Clap: 557ms @ 44.1 kHz

Ride & Crash: 742ms @ 44.1 kHz

The lenghth is adapted automatically by the software depending on the selected sample. Files that are too long are cut at the end, those that are too short are extended with silence. It is an advantage to cut the samples and adjust the volume using a software like Wavelab or alike."
