Problem recording a WAV file

I also posted this on the Karma forum and have no answer.
I really need to get this material burned.

PART TWO: Mix the whole song to a WAV file:

1. To mix the song to an audio file, you use the Sampling page that is inside the Seq mode. Go to the SEQ mode page 0-8 [Audio In/Sampling].
2. From the Page Menu, select "Bounce All Tracks To Disk".
3. Give the file a name, such as "TESTMIX".
4. Press OK, and it plays the song and records it to a WAV file. You will see and hear it actually play the song, and the audio meters will operate. The REC and START/STOP buttons of the SAMPLING section will light up.
5. After the sequence runs past the end part, press the STOP button of the SEQ section to stop recording - this will also STOP the sampling recording. (Apparently, it doesn't really know where the song ends, and will keep running). Congratulations, you now have a .WAV file!

This tutorial has helped much but I am having a problem during recording.
No matter what I try, the the recording stops appr 15-30 seconds into it. I hear some distortion and then pop, the audio meters go dead and it stops recording.
I am thinking that since this occurs during a dynamic piano surge that I must have a modulation or gain level too high somewhere?
I have tried lowering the recording level with no success.
I did make changes to the stereo grand from EXs2 and perhaps a setting in there is causing this.
I am going to try a standard combi without making any changes to it and see where that goes but in the meantime if anyone can help I would really appreciate it
I am anxious to get this material recorded and am really enjoying how the piano sounds at this point so I am hoping that I don't need to change it.

Another question: Does Korg have someone in tech support that I can actually talk to regarding the Oasys?
I couldn't find it on the website.

Thanks much in advance.

FYI,

I got this resolved.

The sampling was saving to ram would not no go longe than 33 seconds so I changed it to disc and then it allowed me to increase the sampling time in minutes.

I am now finally on my way to making my first sample CD.

Hey guys,
I'm a fairly new oasys user and trying to learn as much as I can. I finally created my first song and didn't know how to take it to the next phase, which is making or converting my song to a wave file to prepare to write to a cd. So I'll be using your advice to continue exploring the oasys. I'm enjoying learning this great machine.

There are step-by-step instructions in the Operation Guide, which may be helpful. Make sure that you have the latest version of the PDF, OAYS_Op_Guide_v1_3_E5 (the printed versions have a small "E5" in a circle on the cover). Then, look under the chapter "Loading & saving data, and creating CDs" for the section "Creating audio CDs."

Alternatively, you can find this info in the online help system. To do so:
1. Press the front-panel HELP button.
2. Press the Index button at the bottom of the help screen.
3. Touch the "Disk operations" link.
4. Touch the "Creating audio CDs" link.

Hope this helps!

Best regards,

Dan

Hello
I was successful with creating my first Wave file and burn it to cd. No thanks to Korgs manual, I just wanted to say thanks guys. My next venue will be doing the vocal mixes and effects. I'd like to know is there any type of special method to get this done
