I would like to know, how can i make my compositions of 5 minutes, to be less in mgbites?.. i did 10 second, i save it and when i wanted to share it wit friends, i attached it to my e-mail and i checked it was almost 10 mgbites. I have a 5 minutes composition i imagine it will be i gb. When i sample it, how can i make it to be less megas, what i'm doing wrong/

I know! it just is.
The problem is that when you bounce your song it comes out a Wav. file so its always huge. What I would suggest is get a Computer program...or you probably already have one, and convert it to an MP3 and that should decrease the size of it by a bunch.
I don't know how you would do this in the M3.

good luck!

in the M3 you cannot save directly as mp3, you can save directly from Seq as MIDI file or proprietary .SNG file, further using sampling option you can save it to standard Wave file.

WAV are huge by definition, so if you cannot store it in a shared online storage you have to rip it (on your pc with any free software) to lossy mp3 or to other lossless compression as flac

I recorded 10 second of song in the M3 and i saved it in a usb memory stick, then i follow the instructions, i sample it in the M3. I wanted to share it with friend, so from hotmail, i pull the 10 seconds song and there is when i found out was almost 10 megabytes, it shocked me. I'm new in this, learning, i want to figure out how can i change a wave file into a playable different format. Which would be the next step?.. what is convinient? MP3's? if so, how? i really appreciate your help, or what or where can i learn more about this issues.
