Many audio editors and sequencers make it a tedious process to listen to multiple audio files one at a time, but with ExSC it's an absolute breeze. When I started reviewing Extreme Sample Converter, I expected to be mainly using it for format conversions, but within a few days found myself relying on it for audio file browsing and auditioning, at which it excels.
Browse BeaterĪs a sample browser and looper, ExSC rivals some fully featured stereo audio editors. As its name suggests, this stand‑alone application offers a wide range of import/export options, as well as promising more thorough conversions, but it's also capable of a lot more. When this happens, it's time to reach for a more comprehensive utility - like Wlodzimierz Grabowski's Extreme Sample Converter. Many software samplers will import other formats, but they may not support the particular format you need, or do a less‑than‑thorough job of conversion, leaving you with sounds that simply don't 'feel' right, even if all the samples end up in the right place. If you're about to make the switch from a hardware to a software sampler, or to a new software sampler, it's important to make sure that you can carry on using your existing sample libraries.
