Almost OT: Anybody using Reason?
2003-05-15 by pfoxsounds
Hello all, I have been using Reason lately, and one thing I was frustrated with was not being able to import samples/banks into its samplers (NN-XT, etc.). Well, I just found out today about an app that does this: CDXtract 4 http://www.cdxtract.com It wont deal with emax or emax II files as far as I can tell, but I have an EIII that it will recognize the formats of. So I guess I can use the EIII as middleman between EmaxII and Reason, by importing my EmaxII stuff into the EIII first. I was kinda surprised Chickensys translator wasn't on this first, but their site suggests that they are "still in process of attempting to get" the info they need on the reason encrypt/compress format from the makers of reason. You can use Translator to make soundfonts of your EIII sets, then reason can import them though. Best, -PF
