I recently struggled with a slight issue: After running akaiutil for a while using the standard command prompt I suddenly found I could no longer run it. I was getting an error message as follows: "The program cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64-bit versions of Windows. Please contact the software developer to ask if a 64-bit Windows compatible version is available." I tried several methods to make it run again but for a while could not overcome this issue. I have since overcome this...

P.P.S. I've just overcome the issue. Somehow the akaiutil.exe file had become corrupt in some manner. I have just replaced it with a freshly extracted version of the app and it now works as expected. This might help any other user who may encounter this issue. I still don't know what caused this to happen.

P.S. I've just noticed the error message begins with 'Unsupported 16-bit Application'... still not understanding why this has suddenly started happening, after running OK before.

What I fail to understand is that previously akaiutil was running fine in the command prompt window... so far I have not found any online resource which provides accurate information about this. I mean, is akaiutil a 32-bit application? If so, how was it possible for me to run it previously? What could have changed with the command prompt? All very frustrating...

Still struggling here with slight issues; 1) after running akaiutil for a while using the standard command prompt I now suddenly find I can no longer run it. I'm now getting an error message as follows: "The program cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64-bit versions of Windows. Please contact the software developer to ask if a 64-bit Windows compatible version is available." I have tried several methods to make it run again but cannot overcome this issue. Any advice would be greatly...

Hi Michael, I just worked out that this is the case and after looking at the contents I see that I now have all the files in S1000 format within that image file. FYI I was able to mount the resulting image file as a virtual drive using Virtual CloneDrive. I also have the NI Kontakt software sampler and this recognises the resulting virtual drive! - which is exactly what I wanted. I can now see all the programs and samples within Kontakt! This is a truly excellent result and I cannot thank you enough...

Thanks Michael. I'd just worked that out myself and was changing my message above when you replied. It now works!! Thanks for that! Excellent! However, after quitting, I don't know where the image file has been written. I was expecting a separate image file. Is the data from the tar file written into the template file instead?

Scratch all that! I decided to try it on a spare hard disk. It seemed to work!!! so thanks for these instructions! However, after quitting, I don't know where the image file has been written.

Scratch all that! I decided to try it on a spare hard disk. However, I ran into a problem when attempting the command "tarput track.tar". This doesn't seem to work. The name of my tar file is "x.tar", so I entered "tarput x.tar". This returned the following error: /disk0 > tarput x.tar PEACEBUBBLE/ partition does not exist tar error So I'm not sure what went wrong. It seems to see the contents of the tar file. PEACEBUBBLE is the name of the folder contained therein, but as you can see the 'partition...

Thanks Michael. That really helps. I've already achieved step 1). So I have a tar file. But I don't fully understand step 2) and safety is my first concern here, since I'm not familiar with the outcome of these various commands! I'm using Windows. Ideally, I'd like to make an ISO image which can be burnt to a CD later. I took a look at the image template file and it's not clear how I should use this. In the first command in step 2 "akaiutil backup.img" do I replace that with the name of the template...

Hi @kmi9000 Thanks for creating akaiutil and akaidatdecode. Like some others here I am struggling to find the correct commands... but I managed to successfully convert an akai DAT wave file to a .tar file using your akaidatdecode. This gave me a tar file comprising a folder containing all the program and sample files. I'd now like to burn these files to an Akai format CD which could be read by an S1000 or S3000 sampler - (or better still I'd like to be able to create an Akai format disk image from...
