[comp.sys.amiga] Mac -> Amiga sound conversion

U3364521@ucsvc.ucs.unimelb.edu.au (Lou Cavallo) (12/21/90)

G'day,

{I'm posting this note for a friend but you can reply to my mail address.}

How can Macintosh sound files be converted to Amiga sound files?  Is there
a standard for Macintosh sound files?  Is there a problem with parity with
Macintosh file data (assuming it can be gotten to an Amiga, say Mac -> DOS
& DOS -> Amiga (with -> indicating file system conversion via some tool)),
as I think I read in this newsgroup once.

Btw {there always is one you know :-)} he uses various Macintosh music and
sound sampling packages (he's a muso and 'though he prefers Amiga he has 2
use the most appropriate tools that our University has available). He most
often wishes to translate Macintosh generated sounds into Amiga usable 1's
(such as for MusicX).

What sort of general advice are you able to offer?

Thankyou in advance, Ian (my friend) will be most grateful I know. :-)

yours truly,
Lou Cavallo.
