Some background history. In the early 1990s I encouraged developers on
the SGROUP mailing list to create what became known as the SAMDISK
(SDISK, SMAC, etc) utility. My intention was not to propose anything
fancy, just something to allow a track by track copy of the contents of
a floppy disk for the Roland samplers to a single file, so it could be
transferred via modem and of course the Internet. Then with software on
the user's computer, to be able to re-create that entire disk. This was
a way for someone on one side of the global to be able to share their
samples they created with others. The method until then, was to
actually mail blank floppy disks to a user on the SGROUP list, they
could make copies and postal mail them back.
SAMDISK worked fine, as their were versions created for the Mac, PC and
others. Years later, I saw somewhere on the Roland web site they had
adapted the SAMDISK format. I didn't ask for too much in the ways of
features for this utility initially because at the time Roland wasn't
releasing the file format of the disk or how the samples were
constructed either. I figured if I made my proposal too lofty, it might
not ever get done. I even called Roland to ask for info at the time,
and was told the software development was done in Japan so they didn't
even have source code to give my any pointers to pass on to developers
in terms of file formats, length and purpose of the fields.
Of course, I thought at the time it would have been nice to be able to
extract specific samples from a Roland floppy disk, and do something
with it, but what? In the early 1990s, many computers didn't have a
sound card provided at the time of purchase except for the Mac. The
concept of the Digital Audio Workstation was still very early and very
expensive. I was very surprised at how the developers on the SGROUP
took this concept and ran with it. Not only were versions created on
several platforms to do as I hoped, they took it further to be able to
actually extract a sample right from the floppy disk. I have really
only used the SMAC for the Macintosh version.
This brings us pretty much up to date. I still have my Roland S-330 in
my studio along with about 200 floppy disks in Roland S-330 format.
Many of them are samples I personally created and wish to archive them
and put them in a modern generic universal format such as WAV and/or
AIFF. Others contain samples I tweaked in some way, and some are from
the old Roland Library when I bought my Roland S-330 that you were
allowed to copy from the authorized dealer.
With 200 floopy disks, this can be a big project. I also realize that
configurations and settings unique to the Roland S-330 will be lost in
the transfer. Please, I'm not asking once again developers on the
SGROUP to create another project such as the Roland S-330 OS soft
emulator. Really, I'm not. :-)
What is the most up to date version of the SAMDISK utility regardless
of platform to use that will do the best job of extracting samples?
Mac, Windows? Which name and version software?
If I recall correctly, the SAMDISK would create an image file, then you
use the SAMDISK to open that image file and extract the samples, is
this correct? I'm asking because I figure I might as well archive the
image file. It is kind of amazing to realize that all 200 Roland sample
S-330 floppy disks will easily be able to fit on a single CD-ROM
(samples and image file), which costs less than what I paid for a
single floppy disk at the time I bought the sampler. :-)
Thanks in advance,

Hi Garth
I checked my site and it seems not always work well: I dont know why.
Anyway, the direct link is: http://jm1200.free.fr/binaries/S760CTDIF.zip
(I added the source file to the Zip)
I also made bug report with examples few months ago (B.R. 2586/2610).
After few attempts, I decided to try myself and I found the pbm with a hexa
editor and a lot of tests.
Hope it will help you to track the bug.
JMD
Note: Translator is a great tool and the free version is a nice idea for
amateur musicians like me.

Still here. WAV->S-7x has been supported and workable in Translator
for a long time.

It was fixed a long time ago, we just don't reply to any or every
person unless there is a Bug Report filled out (which none were, I

His page showed Error 500 for me; however, we make Virtual Drive's
for S-7x all the time and it's worked for a long time. I don't know
what bug you are referring to; if there was one, it was fixed a long time ago.
As we say many times, if you find a bug, just let us know by filling
out a Bug Report www.chickensys.com/translator/bugreports and give an
example. We'll be right on it and fix it ASAP and put up a public or
private build ASAP. We always do that; it's strange to hear reports
that a bug is persistent.
If in doubt, just contact us.

Hello,
It's my first post to this mailing list :)
I made a little tool to fix the Chicken S760 image file. It's far from
perfect but still usefull ;).
