I have an old Akai S01 sampler, only reads Akai format off floppy, cant convert .wavs to Akai format (I had a program to do this, but now it dosn't work with any of my computers).
Can I transfer samples via midi? Is this possible? Am I dreaming?

are you using AKAIdisk ?
If you're using WinXP turn the Win98 compatibility mode on the AKAIdisk exe.
I've never tried a midi sample dump with any of my samplers due to the time it would take.

Yes you can. It stores the sample as sysex data in whatever sysex librarian you use. That said, it takes forever, so its really not worth it.

No it's a feature of WinXP. Right click any program .exe and go to the compatibility tab and choose the OS that the program was written for.

still dosn't work.... i think modern (???) floppy drives don't all work with akaidisk..........
cubase dosn't handle midi standard sample format for dumping samples..........
anyone know a (free) program that does? something to convert .wavs to midi standard sample format and then dump them......
it's like i'm stuck between 1984 and 2007

OK. So what are you looking to do. I was talking about it more from a storage perspective. Are you editing on your computer, and then transferring over to your sampler?

If so, I might suggest that you get a scsi interface for your computer, and have it connected to your computer. Then you can just drag your samples from your computer into your sampler without bothering to worry about disks and shit.
Don't ask me how to do that. I don't know how to do it, I just know it can be done, because I know people that do it.

It works!!!!
CRAZY!!!
I've been trying to do this for years!!!
don't you love it when tech works for you?
I can now load samples that i have i have edited into my old S01 and play them back with my Kawai q-80 sequencer. I used to have to use the audio input to record samples. this is so much better.
my sound pallet for live performance has just increased 1000 fold.
