So I tried and tried again with no success. When I went to go look to see if it created the presets in the Mach5 Main Sounds folder it had not. But when I went to go pull up the sounds, it loaded the soundbank just fine but, I could not pullup any presets(Individual snds). It put all the needed folders inside and convert the sounds and put them in the samples folder. Anyway I tried to convert a folder of sounds and, the Mach5 created a folder successfully that I named "My Sounds. I would do each audio snd one by one but that would take years-no really. First how do i turn a cd disk that's full of audio samples into a cd-rom disk img that Mach5 or even cdxtract can convert?Ģ. I called my friend to see how he made these sounds into a cd-rom disk img and he said he got it that way as well and didn't know how they came like that.ġ. Then went to Mach5 and tried to convert the snds and it still had an error reading disk. I've tried Toast everyway imaginable then finally I went back to 5.0 Toast and I was able to make a CD-ROM disk img. When I've tried it makes it an "HFS CD-ROM Disk img"Īnd Mach5/cdxtract can't read it as a virtual disk. Well I found out that you can't drag a folder into Toast and make it a CD-ROM disk img. So I used or should I say tried to use Toast to make disk images so that Mach5 would lay it out for me like it did before. Now, I then got the big idea of wanting to convert all my MPC 3000 snds and all my CD disk snds that I have backed up on Firewire drives. I then tried to pullup the sounds and there they were smileing at me waiting to be used. It put the samples where it suppose to go and even setup the presets and all. So I tried to open it with the Mach5/CDxtract under Virtual Drives and, not only did it recognize it but layed out the whole disk and converted everthing perfect. Even said it didn't recognize the file or that it didn't have the file ISO 9660 files inside. I then tried to open the CD-ROM disk img with Toast, seeing that it was written in Toast or at least thats what it says. I opened stuffit and pulled out the CD-ROM img and put it on my desktop. Now, I gotten a CD-ROM disk img of different sounds from a friend that was stuffed with stuffit. Ok, so I just gave you a quick run through of what the Mach5 does as far as convertering. When transfering files or disk img's it puts your wave/aiff/etc files in the sample folder under different partitons like "Partiton A, Partiton B and so on then creates another folder with the name of the sample inside the partiton folder then the actual sample inside of that." It also creates preset folders for your samples with the same theory but instead of the sample, it creates a file of the name of the sample with a. It creates in that folder four other folders called "Backup, Performance, Presets, and Samples". M5b on it so that the Mach5 can read what's inside that folder. So what the Mach5/CDxtract does to your wave/aiff or any type of audio/snd file is put it in a folder with. Anyways, I've never used cdxtract before until I got Mach5. And it does with the big help of CDxtract which is the real converter in this unit. For Pro Tools it's a sampler that's suppose to be able to read any type of audio file. Waiting for an update I guess but, that's not the problem.įor you that know already about Mach5 and those of you that don't but use CDxtract, this is the deal. I've gotten it to work as a RTAS plugin but it won't work as an HTDM plugin. This one is kind of hard to explain but I'll try.įirst of all I just bought the Mach5 about 3 weeks ago.
