No worry, your new EXS mark II will play the "old" EXS programs and samples, plus it can easily import Akai S-1000/3000 and Giga files too. (The only exception to your request is EXS will not import Giga3 programs (would be recent libraries) and Akai S-5000 programs. You'd need a third-party convertor for that.) Garth Hjelte Sampler User Hi, I have Akai Samples on Floppy Disks from (CD-3000 & S-3000xl) i have Logic 7.1 and want to know if i can get the samples off the floppys, i have tried the ESS24 but it is not finding the disks. Any help or advice would be great. Thanks, Spencer.
