Possible to use Mach 5 samples in other samplers?

Post by Doctor »

Hi,

Is it possible to use Mach 5 samples in other samplers such as EXS or Kontakt ?

I can get M5 ver 1 samples into Kontakt, but not M5 ver 2.

Thanks for the reply.

MIDI Life Crisis,

Have you tried something like Chicken System's Translator or similar?

Thanks

Nope. No need as I am using MachFive v 2.

I would like to use it as well, but I seem to be having problems getting it to function on the G5 quad, but that could be because I'm an old man and probably just need to read the manual more carefully.

I am trying to make things work with Ensemble Pro and I thought that it would be easier to work with only one sampler. Since I am somewhat familiar with Kontakt, I felt that it would be the easiest to work with.

Thanks for all your help. It's much appreciated.

The disappointing thing is you can import a lot of sample formats in MachFive2, but then you can't save in other formats but m5p... that's not what I'm expecting from a sampler!
