[Linuxsampler-devel] AKAI samplelibrary loader is online

[Benno S. <be...@ga...>]

Hi, I'm forwarding a mail from Sebastien, he has put online
his AKAI samplelibrary loader which will be useful for AKAI import
in LinuxSampler. 
Josh, is the import and of AKAI in Swami fleasible ?
AKAI S1000/2000 does not use files  but reads the samples directly from
CD. Alternatively one can dump the CD's image to a file 
(cat /dev/cdrom >file.img :-) ) and then work on that image.
Anyway being CD image based, it is not easy to write 
manipulated data to HD (one would need to create a whole image) but I
think read-only support for AKAI is enough since it allows you to
reuse old AKAI CDs. If you need to edit them I guess it would be better
to convert the sample to a newer format (like GIG) and do the editing
on that format.

cheers,
Benno
