Yes. This is what I said above. Yet ST3 doesn't install on Big Sur.

Has anyone had luck with Chicken Systems Translator?

I know you can import them into ST3, and then ST4 will read the .st3i format, but I can't install ST3 or the sound files on Big Sur.

Has anyone in my position had success getting these libraries into ST4?

It's a bit of a hassle, but perhaps you could use another computer or a virtual machine to do the importing and converting. Then copy the ST3 library to your computer and add the path in ST4.
Thanks for the recommendation. It might work, but man - what a hassle.

Simplest answer is to locate an alternate computer or virtual machine that can install ST3.
Windows 10 and too many plugins

Hi guys, can you import and edit your own samples easily in ST4 without the clumsy editor they released?

Simple drag and drop or alike.
