Any thoughts on this? > > -Bruce > Hi Bruce! I loaded all my AKAI samples into my S3000 from my zip's and exported them to a SCSI disk when I still had a Mac with SCSI-card. I then made disk images of the SCSI disk on the mac and burned them to cdr. EXS can read these cds and convert them to EXS-format. I remember the mac had problems reading the akai zips that made burned the samples to cd. There's more info and resources here. http://www.synthzone.com/akai.htm Hope this helps. Regards, Ginge
