Re: [exs] Converting *.sf files?

Yes it is :-)))).

Agreed.  I only use it when I have to, for short periods of time and 
simple apps, if possible.

Well, Sascha was kind enough to do the conversion for me, so I don't 
have to bother anymore.

BTW, Sascha, if you're reading this: did you try any of the converted 
organs yourself?  Did you notice how many of the looppoints seem to 
be screwed up?  I wonder what causes that -- a bug in the EXS 
routines?
I'm currently working on a quite nice set of 200+ pipe organs (Jeux 
1.4 soundfont) that suffers from this same problem.  It's a royal 
pain having to adjust half of the loops in 200+ instruments that can 
use up to 20 zones per instrument...
