EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

AFAIK the only way to do it is burn them to CD in AKAI format. Unless
chickensys translator addresses this, I don't know.

you could try the latest version of the Bitheadz Osmosis demo.. I 
*think* it will read AKAI formatted Zips now.. Launch the demo and 
then insert the Zip to see if it works..

BTW, if it works, you would want to convert to SampleCell format (if 
you want the program info) and then import to the EXS..

good luck,
