Hi Cyril,

There's a set of apps called SMac that allows you to load sounds and 
convert from S550/S330 floppies. From there, you'd have to map the 
sounds in the EXS24.

I think this is the file:

In any case, these are great apps for backing up and/or restoring 
your precious S550 disks.

Or, if you have the S760, you could convert-load the sounds, then 
import them (I imagine) with CDXtract or Translator.

Hope this helps - Colin
