this says it needs kontakt 3+ but it says also SoundFont2

i dont understand why these kontakt files cant be converted to work with kontakt 1.5?

Probably it can be converted, but the sample format conversions can be problematic , (especially in Kontakt) ...

Sorry I have made a mistake. There is a lot of options to play Sound Font 2 in Mac Os 9. Kompakt/Kontakt, Bismark BS-16 and Sound Blaster to name a few.

There isn't soundfont 2 support on mac os 9, AFAIK.

I was thinking in Sound Font Z when I wrote this. :o

BTW, nice piano sound  ;)

the mks 20 piano is legendary!!!!!! the above video is a direct example of the sound font itself..
