Hardware Samplers 
Although software samplers are unique, hardware samplers
aren't dying. They are still preferred for live gig's and
still retain their place in studios from the high pro's
to the young amateurs.
Translator is alone in not only
reading but writing to proprietary disks like the ones
mentioned above. It pioneered the concept of Virtual
Drives, enabling users to transfer and translate a number
of formats onto an image that could be burned onto a CD-R
for use in their Akai, Emu, Ensoniq, and other hardware
samplers. Nowadays other programs are picking up on the
concept, but Translator has had it since the beginning.
Translator supports all the new breed of DOS-format
hardware samplers, such as the Akai-5000/Z-Series, Korg
Triton, Roland Fantom-S/X and XV-5080, Akai MPC, Ensoniq ASR-X, and
others. Translator is still the only program that really
writes EXACT compatible files for these samplers, as
opposed to a somwhat cookie-cutter approach taken by other
competing programs.
