Thank you! FTR, those tunes were all recorded and mixed in Logic (except I Feel Good) with the EXS used for some of the drums .

When you say "run it from there", I assume you mean convert the Akai format versions into EXS via the built in functionality in Logic, right?

If so, and I've never used Translator but have heard great things about it, be prepared to most likely lose "some" of the sample parameters after the two separate stages of conversion you'll be doing. It might be things as minor as bank layouts and midi channel mapping. Or as "serious" as filter settings. Again, it may work perfectly, I don't know; but don't be surprised if it doesn't.

No, you record and edit directly into Logic as you would any audio.
