Craig, & Peeps,

What software program is "Best" that can be used to transfer audio samples between say
a Yamaha/A5000, and a Ensoniq/ASR X, or
between an Akai/MPC2000XL, and a Emu E4K, or
the venerable Hip-Hop classic Emu SP1200?
I'm looking for something that can convert
samples that keeps their start/end/loop
points in place across multiple platforms.
Alchemy did this but, to my knowledge it has been discontinued awhile ago.

Quantum!

I am not sure if this does the sample transformations you are looking for, or would think this was a good program, but check out the "Translator" at Chicken Systems.

I second the Rubber Chicken reference, although it won't do SP-12 -- just the samplers from the Emu line. But it handles Yamaha, Akai, Creamware, Digi SampleCell, Roland, Kurzweil, etc. etc. You may need to use multiple programs to do the really weird translations, e.g., translate from one format to Akai, then translate Akai to another format with a different program.

BTW Translator works on PC or Mac. And I miss Alchemy, too!
