Hi there, I wish to know if there's something in the PD which converts raw sample files (such as those used with SoundTracker, NoiseTracker, etc.) to the Sonix or IFF standard format. If yes, where I can find it ? Thanx in advance, Ivan

You could use an early PD/Shareware version of Perfect Sound. There is a copy
of that program on one of the earlier Fish disks, probably on a disk in the
1-100 range. If you find it, Perfect Sound will allow you to load in raw
samples and create multi-octave IFF instruments. I don't know of any utility
(non-commercial) that does raw->Sonix conversion. Hope this helps.

Put simply: SMUS/IFF can't touch ST/NT and especially MED.

Now, I don't know what ST/NT/MED can do. SMUS is MIDI but I think the original poster was asking about samples. So what about the SAMP IFF format made by Dissidents? Perhaps there is enough capability there? If not, please explain what is lacking. Paul Shields

Put simply: SMUS/IFF can't touch ST/NT and >especially MED. Oh yeah, you can't distinguish between a file format and a player program. It might be that ST/NT/MED are better player programs than currently available smus players (e.g. Sonix) but SMUS can cleary describe anything stored into an ST/NT module.
