Hello Joeri,

Let me understand, because we have a chance to get a real good 
locally made Mac CD-ROM (Sound Designer II files), but have goten 
conflicting stories here in the group. Before I spend the money on 
the CD-ROM, please let me ask you these questions:
1) Do you yourself have a PC using LAWP/EXS24?  
2) Have you already successfully accomplished the conversion 
operation you mentioned above - that is, on your PC, converting a Mac-
formatted CD-ROM containing SDII files into Motorla bytes and then to 
standard wave files using Sound Forge?
3) If you do a batch convert with Sound Forge, do each of the 
individual SDII files come back as individual waves that can then be 
imported directly into the EXS24 (PC)?  

Thanks for letting me know,

David Benus
