EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Hi all,

I'm looking for a way to convert an entire audio cd into seperate 
files, to relieve me from the haslle of having to cut up manually 
every audiotrack on a cd into different files. (e.g. when working 
with audioformat sample cd's)

Anybody know of a program that does this fast and reliably?
Does CDxtract do this?
Thanx.
O.

Translator (at least on the on the PC) can do this. If you choose to 
convert (or rather, map) a bunch of WAVE, AIFF, or SD2 files to EXS-24 
format, you can choose an option that will go through each sound file and 
separate all the chunks per user-set threshold and time factors.

So, in other words, you take a whole 99-track CD-Audio, rip it into 99 
WAVE-AIFF-SD2 files, and lets say there's 5 samples per track. Translator 
will separate each one out - so you wind up with 495 sounds, and they can 
all be mapped to EXS Instrument in many sorts of ways. There's other ways 
to do this, but Translator does it in one operation, and it has more 
options than the EXS's mapping functions.

There were several people that requested this last year and it saved the 
day for them.

This may be on the Mac version, I'll check and make sure it's there, if 
not, I'll port it in.
