I need to transfer some samples to a PC compatible, but it turns out that the AKAI disks have a proprietary format which is not readable by PC or Mac. Also, is there an S1000 editor for the IBM?

With no result. Now I got AVALON, so that I can take samples from the AKAI and save these on the disks of my computer. If you just want to save these samples, this program is right for you (and for many other things like editing and transforming in the time and in the frequency domain etc. ...) But if you want to do something with the samples from the AKAI by yourself, this program isn't quit right. The samples on disk have a very strange format and the first thing you have to do is to decode this format. Unfortunately I haven't found any description of this format, so I cannot help with this subject. This is where I'm waiting for help from a computer-wizzard: Who knows the structure of a AVALON-sample on disk? I want to play samples created by CSound on an AKAI 2000. The only way I see is via AVALON. But I can't get the samples into AVALON...
