Re: [exs] Akai conversion presets?

2001-12-22 by highlandsource

yeah!
ive converted quite a few disks now, and for me its a bit of a 
black art. what i landed up with is converting only a handful of 
programs first of all, then checking the levels that way before 
converting the entire disk. 
it would be very helpful if sample cd makers were to include 
specific notes about their product and exs24 - things like which 
programs are mergable or not.
hmm, interleaved or not. all of mine are interleaved, but just 
recently i wanted to swap left and right sides of a tom sample 
and it seems not to be an option. as far as i know this is 
because its interleaved and therefore acts as a single entity.
id quite like some pointers regarding thie interleaved question 
too.
