Edit: has anyone used anything to convert AKAI floppies?

Post by DryCounty » Tue Feb 08, 2005 6:22 am

Hello everyone

First I should say that this is a Mac-based question.

I have a friend who is soon to be leaving for Japan and wishes to consolidate some of his musical gear. He has an Akai S2000 sampler (which I believe uses 3.5" floppies) and also has the latest version of Reason.

Is there any way that the ReLoad utility will work if he gets a 3.5" USB floppy drive to convert the AKAI files to AIFF or whatever?

If not, is there _any_ other utility that can do this?

Thanks in advance!

Okay so I basically found out via another board that ReLoad will only work with AKAI CDs. Does anyone know of ANY Mac based (OS 9 or OS X) utilities that can batch convert AKAI floppies to AIFF or WAV?
Thanks in advance.

the only software I've ever found is WavSnd - don't know if there's a Mac version.
