Re: [exs] Extracting Midi files from AKAI sample disks

I've successfully converted a few AKAI format CDs - the EXS appears to do an
excellent job. I have one problem, however, and have scoured the specs of
any AKAI conversion utilities I can find to no avail:
On converting Talvin Singh's Abracatabla CD, only the sample files and
programs are converted - none of the Akai format MIDI files, which can be
seen and read on my S2000, are converted successfully - they just appear as
non-functioning exs instrument files.
Can anyone help?

the EXS cannot read *.MID....
u have to copy them from the cdAkai to a folder... and insert them in Logic
with the Import function...

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
