Gord,
When I downloaded extreme sample converter, some how I converted a file in to
sf2. After you suggested me to do sfz in stead of sf2, I could not managed in
the softwhere. Could you please tell me how to do that?
I think I have to do something in the source and destination menus but could
not figure out what.
In the source menu, I choose FXB and in the destination menu sfz. But in sfz
sub menu there are many things that I do not know which one to select.
Thanks

Hello:
You would be better off converting into the sfz format rather than sf2, since
sfz is the native format for the sfz player and you'll be able to edit the sfz
files if you need to. Once you've inserted the sfz player into your project
and you have the properties window up, and (assuming you are using CT), press
f4, then enter to bring up the program options dialog, then tab to load program
and press enter. There you'll be in a standard windows open dialog. Just
browse to where you have your sfz file and press enter.

Hi Gord,
I downloaded the demo version of extreme sample converter. And I think I
managed to convert one of my FXB files into SF2.
If I do not get in to big troubles with this program I will buy it soon. By
the way, do you use it yourself?
Now, Could you give me some suggestions and tricks to get around in SFZ to
begin and use the sounds in Sonar tracks?
I already took a look to the SFZ related section in the Sonar 6 tutorial.
Thanks allot.

Hello:
I would suggest that you purchase a program called extreme sample
converter. It is quite accessible and will convert many sample formats to any
other format, including sfz, and it does list haylian fxb as one of the
compatible formats. I don't have any fxb files to try myself, but it is there.
In many cases, you will need to tweak things in sfz after you convert them, so
I would get familiar with the sfz text format. I think the program costs
around $75 or so, but it is well worth it in my oppinion.

Dear Gord,
Would you be so kind as to tell me how I am going to open and use these
FXB files to use in Sonar?
Every single FXB file is in a folder with many other files with the
extension of WAV. I think because they are recorded real instruments.
And I think these FXB files are the combination of that WAV files.
I hope I am able to explain what I am dealing with. If not please tell
me I will try to make it clearer.
These technical things are not so easy to describe.
If you do not mind, I like to sent you one of the Files I have been
trying to open, in case when you see the folder you may come up with an idea
and we
can save some times.
It has 11 WAV and 1 FXB file. I am not sure, if I only sent the FXB
file without the WAV files it would work or not.
Tell me what you think.
Thanks allot for your help
Caglar

Hello:
Fxb is not a sound format. It is a vst format for saving banks of
patches for any given vst plug-in. Your fxb files are proprietory for whatever
plug-in they were created on.

Hi all,
How can I open FXB files in SFZ? I have some sounds in fxb format.
I am able to see the fxb files in SFZ but when I attempt to lode them I hear
nothing. Unlike that, WAV files are no problem to open and lode them in to
sonar and play on my keyboard.
Thanks
Caglar
