How can I convert W2B files to AN1 files?

2006-02-15 by okiikahuna

Hi, all.  I'm new to this forum.  I am using a humble PLG150AN card 
in my S90ES.  I recently purchased Dave Polich's Regenerator library 
from Keyfax and discovered that it only comes with the W2B/W3B files 
needed to load the sounds onto the PLG card.  Dave Polich tells me 
the AN1 files are unavailable, apparently a casualty of our good 
friend Steve Jobs' OSX debacle.

Obviously, since my PLG card can't save AN1 files and the AN Expert 
Editor can't load W2B files, this means I cannot edit or rearrange 
the sound library in any way.  Can't alter the notes in a sequence. I 
can't even combine my own voices with the Regenerator board voices.  
Very frustrating.  

So, my question is: How can I get an AN1 file of this set?  Can I 
load the W2B files into an AN1X and then save as AN1 files?  (Not 
having an AN1X, I don't know if this is a daft question)  Anybody 
have any suggestions.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
