[Mac} [EXS24} conversion of Akai files
2002-03-03 by Roland Barrett
I have a problem that I hope someone out there can help me with. I've been forced to downgrade from a G4 Mac (9.04) to a G3 (9.2). My G4 managed to successfully convert several Akai sample CDs, but the G3 won't perform the same operation. It does recognize that a CD has been inserted in the drive...but it just sits there, cursor spinning, and eventually ejects the CD. Emagic suggested that I needed to update the CD/DVD driver in the G3--I checked, however, and it is ok..in fact, it's newer than the driver in the G4. I am following the instructions carefully, selected "convert", then installing the CD, etc. I'm at a loss...I did recently upgrade the G3's system software from 8.6 to 9.2, via 9.0 and 9.1. Is there a chance that anything pertinent got mangled or trashed? I'd appreciate anyone's advice. Thanks! Roland [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
