Hi Fitch,

I think your bank will work on the PC - although you will need to rename the file as

FITCHSOUND.glo

before you Zip it.

Those weird PC machines use file name suffixes to recognise different kinds of files; so filename.txt is a text file, filename.glo is an Abysnth file, filename.aif is an AIFF file.

Pretty inelegant system - but that's PCs for you. Razz Wink

Make a copy of the file under another name and rename that one to .glo Wink

Sure will. Smile The Mac doesn't care about file suffixes much.

When a zipped Absynth file (Mac or PC) is unzipped on a Mac, it usually loses its proper icon (it'll often appear as a text file instead), but this is fixed when Absynth (1.3.3) opens the file for the first time.

There's also a little drag-n-drop program called Absynth PC>>Mac Converter (that comes with 1.3.3 update), and you can drag unzipped files onto this to restore the proper icon.
