Last night I tried using a free program made by Boss that converts wave files into a format that I can use with my Boss BR-8 8-Track Recorder. Surprisingly it's called the 'Boss BR-8 Wave Converter' - clever, aren't they?
Well, the version on the Boss site is version 1.00. However, this didn't seem to work... I kept getting the error 'Cannot Write File' (something like that anyway) after it had converted the wave file. This was really peeing me off, so after quite a bit of Googling I found version 1.04 from one of the foreign Boss sites and this seemed to work. 'Huzzah' I announced in victory.
This now means I can transfer my drum tracks directly to the recorder and also stick any other samples I fancy into my songs much easier. Still, it's weird that there is no other reference at all to this updated version on the main Boss sites.
Oh well, I'm off for lunch now! Just thought I'd share all this with you and if anyone wants the version 1.04 then let me know and I'll email you it as no doubt someone will find this post in their hunt for Boss BR-8/BR8 wave convertor/converter software :)
