I don't recall if AKAI CD's can be read on a PC (not - am I correct?), but if you can copy files off the CD somehow using a PC, you might be able to get results by just copying these files onto the FAT (or Triton) formatted CF card. For the latter I'd give a go to the tool called 'WinImage', another alternative might be Ghost, but have not much idea for the former (but there should be tools for that out there). It's just a wild stab in the dark, but you might want to try to use some tool to extract a BIN image from the CD and write this image to the CF card with some HDD imaging tool. be able to load Akai discs with my Triton. This also allows you to load Akai (S1000/S3000), Korg, AIFF, and WAVE format sample files etc.įrom a CD-ROM drive.' Then a warning triangle followed by:'This format cannot be executed for media that is not 512 bytes/block (such as 640 MB MO disks etc.)ĭoes this mean it's not possible? That I should have gotten a SCSI CF CD-ROM instead? I can probably use Chickens/CDXtract to convert the Akai discs into.I don't know.wav? and then load those into the Triton, but it misses the whole point I was trying to do, i.e. Now, I'd like to know how would I be able to load AKAI discs (as this is not a CD-ROM but a CF reader) from a Compact Flash card into my Triton? Triton supports AKAI S1000/3000.įrom the Triton parameter guide, p. Now, I have Triton's sample memory maxed, it's not much (64 mb) but still something. Ok this is a bit ancient gear, but I recently got a hold of a SCSI CF card reader/writer, which I have managed to hook up to my Korg Triton's SCSI port.

Indeed, that would probably explain why g-host had to do some manual tweaking after the import.

Those samples are turned into specific 'patches' (higher level) on a synth workstation via keymapping PLUS setting/tweaking various parameters available to that specific synth engine.Korg Forums :: View topic - Triton with CF card reader & Akai discsĪ forum for Korg product users and musicians around the world. NIs documentation, like most other companies, refers to it as the Akai 'S1000/S3000' format, but one would be right to worry a bit about whether all of the S3000 extensions are correctly supported. nki files that are of version 4.2.1 or older.

It is possible however to import samples using an older version of Live, such as Live 8 (available in our download archive ).

To finally answer your specific question, one can think of. AKAI S1000 AKAI S3000 Note that in Live 9 and later, the import function is no longer available for Akai S - series samples. 'Conversion tools' sometimes do a good job of conversion, but usually the conversion is never perfect, nor as good as the original. Akai’s digital MIDI samplers helped bring the art of sampling to a much wider range of musicians than expensive units like the Synclavier and Fairlight CMI. Sample libraries (AKAI, Giga, Kontakt, etc.) always sound best when played in their native format (the format in which they were originally programmed. Akai S612 with the MD280 quick disk drive. At its best, it uses some parameters to make it sound more true to the original hardware platform. Loading the AKAI program, at the very least, will give you pre-mapped samples, so you can just load and play. 184) uses AKAI Program file parameters such as key group, key group zone, oscillator, pitch, filter, amp/pan, LFO, and EG. The Triton Extreme/Studio/OASYS 'AKAI Advanced Conversion Load' (see Parameter Guide pg. This 'programming' is in addition to just mapping samples across keyboard keys.Īn AKAI 'Program', played on an AKAI sampler, usually has these extra features also. When sound programmers create sample-based 'patches', they normally utilize the 'extra features' of the playback engine (filters, Amps, whatever). What is the akai programming and how will changing the formats to wave give you lesser flexibility. aif (both of which the Triton can read), but this would be 'suboptimal' since you would lose the AKAI programming. You should be able to use CDXtract to convert the AKAI samples to. When you say you are using a demo version of CDXtract, tol what format are you trying to convert? I was not aware that CDXtract supported conversion directly to the Triton format. Chicken Systems does have a Mac version of Translator, but I am not sure how well it works. The Extreme does a great job of 'converting' AKAI programs.Īnother method would be to convert the AKAI samples to the Triton format on your computer. After they are loaded you can save them (to Compact Flash) in the Triton's native sample format.

The easiest (and best) method of using S1000/S3000 Akai CDs would be to connect an external USB CD reader or burner to the Extreme, then load them directly into the Triton's Sample RAM. What type of AKAI sample CDs are you trying to get the Triton read? The Triton can load/read AKAI S1000/S3000 AKAI Programs and AKAI samples.
