aight heres my problem....when i got my X-Board, it came with Proteus X, and 4 disks full of expansion banks for it...it all worked fine at first....but somewhere along the line...i started getting an error and it stopped owrking, never been able to load Proteus X up again since then...even re-installed my whole system and installed FL Studio first before anything, and then Proteus X right after, and still didnt work.....very strange considering it worked at first, but anyway, recently i was at the flea market and came across E-MU Planet Earth for Emulator X,/Proteus X...so, tonight i tried to use extreme sample converter to change it to kontakt format, since my program doesent work anymore...it converted all the programs, but it didnt create the wav files from the .ebl file...
am i doing something wrong here??? or is it just not possible to do this altogether???
any help would be appreciated...
Converintg Proteus X/Emulator X banks to Kontakt format??

Extreme Sample Converter does this (assuming your disks aren't copy protected) :

Oh, duh, I didn't read carefully...the samples are copy protected...
Call E-Mu for support?

well, i used some other emu proteus x isks i already had laying around, and seen if they would convert, and they did....
and the difference between the one i got at the flea market, and the ones i already had is, the one at the flea market, has one bank file, and one large file containing all the sounds....
the ones i already had, had each sound file as its own .ebl....
im guessing this is why it didnt work with the world disk..

a) That's really weird. Are you sure the XBoard was connected and powered when you tried to start the program? It uses the board as a dongle.
What was the error message?
b) There are probably patches in some soundbanks that won't sound even remotely similar in Kontakt, because Kontakt doesn't have the z-plane filters. Just be aware that Kontakt 2 and Emulator/Proteus X can each do things the other can't.

Translator www.chickensys.com also converts Emualtor X2 as well as Emulator X files, and perhaps does a better job at it, as it has extensive experience (3 years for both) with both formats.
You might have better results, but again, if the .ebl samples are encrypted, no can do.

Last time i tryed to convert emulator format to kontakt format with Extreme Sample C. i managed convert it but there is a bug in Extreme sample converter. Everything will be converted but volume AHDSR envelope is lost so you must to do this by hand. And it is working fine then...
