I just put up the M.K. Strings, and I converted them into 44.1K .wav files. 
They were sd2 and AIFF stuff.

Go to www.chickensys.com/exs or www.chickensys.com/esx for a new list.

If the people who contribute stuff could make sure their instruments 
conform to the following, it'd be a little easier on this end:

The EXS files should have the .exs extension
The samples should be .wav (with the .wav extension) or AIFF (with the .aif 
extension). Please remember that renaming and/or converting the samples is 
not enough - you must revise the EXS file to point to the right names.
Put in a readme file that describes the instrument

Don't download files from ftp.soundcentral.com/pub/unsorted - that may not 
always work.
