yeah you can use ableton or a later version of fruity, or similar type program, just gotta dump your midi file into a channel,

then you can muck around with it on your pc and send it back to the 303,

hopefully jules is coming up 2nite, he does it fair bit. :wink:

open your sound editor (ie soundforge)
search the help file for sample dump via midi

and you will find something like this
soundforge manual wrote: From the Tools menu, choose Sampler to send data to and receive data from a sampler.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What do you want to do?
Set up an external sampler
Choose Sampler from the Tools menu to display the Sampler dialog.

Click the Configure button to display the Sampler Configuration dialog.

From the Sampler model drop-down list, choose the sampler to which you wish to send and receive samples.

If your sampler is not listed here, choose Generic MIDI/SDS or Generic SCSI/SMDI.

Specify input/output settings for the sampler:

If your sampler uses MIDI/SDS transfer, click the MIDI radio button and choose input and output ports in the MIDI Out and MIDI In boxes.

If your sampler uses SCSI/SMDI transfer, click the SCSI radio button and select your sampler in the Sampler box.

The Sampler box will list all devices connected to the selected SCSI host, including devices that are not samplers.

In the Sample bias box, specify a numbering offset that allows you to add or subtract a value to the Logical send/receive sample number to compensate for differing sampler storage schemes.

It is often easiest to set the Sample bias so that a Logical send/receive sample number of zero corresponds to the first available sample storage number in your sampler.

Perform steps 6 through 9 only if you selected the MIDI radio button in Step 4.

In the MIDI channel box, specify the MIDI channel through which sample data will be sent when using SDS .

Select the Open loop check box if you want to send SDS sample data immediately upon clicking the Send Sample button. This is an unconditional transfer of sample data (no handshake). For more information about open-loop transfer, click here.

When this check box is selected, the sampler's MIDI output does not have to be connected to your computer’s MIDI input. However, Open loop decreases sample dump speed and is more prone to transfer errors.

Select the Send request when retrieving samples check box if you want the Sampler tool to send a request (handshake) to the sampler before beginning an SDS sample transfer.

Select the Wait for request check box if you want the Sampler tool to wait for a request (handshake) from the sampler before beginning an SDS sample transfer.

Click the Save As button and specify a preset name to save your settings.

Send or receive samples
Sending a sample will always send the entire contents of the active data window. Any selection contained in the waveform display is ignored. When receiving a sample, the entire contents of the active data window are replaced with the new sample data (a warning will be displayed before any data is replaced).

From the Tools menu, choose Sampler.

Choose a sampler from the Configuration drop-down list.

In the Logical send/receive sample number box, specify the number your sampler uses as its location reference for samples sent or received. This number can be biased for specific samplers with the Sample bias setting in the Sampler Configuration dialog.

The Actual send/receive sample number is displayed below the Logical send/receive sample number. The actual value is the sum of the logical value and the specified sample bias.

Click the Send sample or Get sample button to start the data transfer.

The MIDI unity note and Fine tune values are for display only. Use the Edit Sample dialog to modify the settings.

Determine sample bias
Sample bias is a numbering offset that allows you to add or subtract a value to the logical sample number to compensate for differing sampler storage schemes. This way, you can use sample numbers 0 through n for your samples no matter what sampler you are using.

Samplers that have factory-defined samples burned into their ROMs usually define a range of sample numbers for these samples. This range cannot be used to store and retrieve your own samples. These samplers will define one or more sample number ranges that are available for your own samples.

For example, the Akai S1000 uses sample numbers 0 through 3 to store its factory-defined samples. Sample numbers above 3 are available for user-defined samples, so a sample bias of 4 would allow you to use sample numbers 0 through n as the Logical send/receive sample number and the Sampler Tool will convert it to the Actual send/receive sample number automatically.

You can also use the sample bias to define different bases for multiple projects on which you are working. For example, if you are composing two different pieces that use different samples, you might want to create a sampler configuration for each of these projects (see the Saving Sampler Configurations section below). Within each configuration, you can define a different sample bias to keep your samples separated in the same sampler.
