SPD-SX Wave Manager

SPD-SX Wave Manager is a specialized, third-party software solution that was designed to help advanced computer users such as musical artists or audio engineers import various wave files from their computers within the Roland SPD-SX instrument and manage them without significant efforts. The app supports handling WAV and AIFF files.

When using Roland's SPD-SX, it is possible that you can import custom wave files by placing them on a USB flash memory drive and transferring them directly to the instrument. However, sometimes, due to various factors such as a defective USB flash drive, wrong formats or corrupted documents on your computer, the instrument might not accept the files you want to import. Unlike the app, using this method only works with 16bit / 44.1kHz WAV files.

Hence, this application lets you import them in a more intuitive manner by guiding you through the whole process and also letting you manage the content you want to transfer directly from the program.

It is worth mentioning that if you want to use this application to transfer WAV or AIFF files to the instrument, you need to configure the USB mode of the SPD-SX and set it to "WAVE MGR" mode before attempting any operation.
