FYI .....

I downloaded the Akai samples and had the same issues, I own a copy of
Vsampler ( www.vsampler.com ) which can convert the Akai S5000/6000
format to SF2 which EXS24 can read. After performing this very tedious
conversion, I found a link to Awave Studio 8.2 http://www.fmjsoft.com/
Which looks like it can do the job in batch mode (which would have saved
me a lot of time, though I havent tried it.
