Re: [exs] EXS 24 : Reading Roland S50/S550 floppys and converting to the EXS format

2002-06-05 by Cyril Blanc

Hi,

Thanks for your answers.

I have tried SMAC, it is just extracting the samples so you have to 
re-do all the sample assignment :-(

D-Sound-pro can do it on a old MAC having an internal floppy, but does 
not work on a USB floppy ! after reading the floppy D-sound-pro crashes !
I spoke to Steffano, D-Sound_pro devellopper, he does not want to patch 
3.5.1 and he told me that S50 import was not supported in the new 
incoming release. :-(
