http://www.sweetwater.com/insync/bitheadz-osmosis/

never heard of this before?
from 1999?

Osmosis reads Akai S-1000 and S-3000 formatted CD’s and converts them to Unity DS-1, Sample Cell II, AIFF, WAV, SDII formats. Retail price $179. They have a downloadable demo if you want to try it out.

how is this pro tools related?
shouldnt this be under sampler section?

[AtariMan]

With Pro Tools is not related, but due to the Sample Cell. I have a disc with the banks and with the help of Akai Bitheadz Osmosis, I would like to convert Akai banks under SC 2 Plus. I love SC 2 Plus. Maybe there is another currency for this purpose? I would be most grateful.

Osmosis Information

      Osmosis is an easy to use conversion utility in which you can convert your favorite     Roland or Akai samples into Unity or Sample Cell format.
      The single window in Osmosis displays your partitions, banks, programs and samples which you can save as a text file. All you need to do to convert the samples is drag the data to the hard drive.
      To make it even easier, we have made it possible for you to demo all samples before you convert them. Just double click the sample and hear it in one-shot or in the looped state.
      Osmosis opens your computer to the world of Akai and Roland sample disks, and makes the perfect companion to Unity or Sample Cell.

eheh not so easy, maybe you have some chances writing here what you need....

in all my years i have never met anyone who was using this stuff. eventually it is just underrated.

when i remember right osmosis keeps chrashing on OS9.x

phrazer would have had the potential to become the new multitrack recycle, but somehow it looks ugly and the file formats are not interchangeable with other apps; there is not a single program which could read unity or acid on mac.

voodoo, well. boing bumm tschak?

Some bitheadz softwares were good. The main problem I remember was....the graphic interfaces. Voodoo was a real pain in the a$$ to use...

the usual fate of "early birds", they were avantgardists but then failed to jump on the plug-in train.

unless you actually use retro, you can replace osmosis with CDXtract for reading roland CDs.

retrooooooo

[IIO]

in retrospective the name makes sense now.

[IIO]

it is usually about 15 minutes work for me to upload older stuff... sorry for the delay atariman.

install 1.1
apply patch (if you want to use this version)
run and close
install 1.1.2
run demo or authorize
