Thanks for the detailed information Eli. Yes I remember the SC as  
well. I also have fond memories of my first sampler - an Ensoniq  
Mirage ;-0. The lm is as I had suspected. By today's standards it's  
not even worth converting them I reckon. Just convert the full  
versions and I'm done.

Kind regards
