Sequential circuits samplers

Hi all

Just had the most amazing discovery. I was able to find a Atari 
program called Softsynth v 2.1 by digidesign( made in 1988)It is 
a "libed" version. This program turns the P2000 into a 32 partial 
additive synth with lots of great features on making original sounds. 
It also has the ability to export SD ( Sound Design format) 
files.Worked like a charm, but you have to have both MIDI IN and OUT 
connected to the P2000 for it to communicate. You also have 
to "clear" a sample on the P2000 manually as it knows if a sample is 
already in the location you want to send it to.

I also did a google search looking for any .SD files( samples) Could 
not find any. However I did find out that Sound Forge can convert 
wave to SD. Since I have Sound Forge, I tried it..and it works!! What 
a discovery! Now I can work on samples in wave format on the PC, and 
convert it to SD, then upload it to the P2000!!

However, now I am having trouble creating a preset from the actual 
samples. I think someone answered me on this, but how do any of you 
create a sample ? I have the Operation Summery ( OS)available on the 
file section, but I think what we need is a clear step by step 
process on creating a sample and saving it as a preset. Even a copy 
and paste from the OS would be OK, but it would help newbies as well 
( like me:-)

BTW: I wonder if it would be OK to have this Atari version on our 
file section for our own use? Probably not. It would work under Steem 
( http://tamw.atari-users.net/steem.htm) on a PC.
