Hi everybody !

I own a AWE32 with 32 MB ram, but I have a problem. I don't know how I can load a sound font sf2 file in the memory AWE banks.

I tried in Windows by AWE32 Control panel, but I only can load SBK files in the AWE memory.

Is there any utility to convert sf2 to sbk files?

Thanks in advanced,
muon

Maybe you need a newer version of the driver and utility. Think I used this one for my Sound Blaster 32 CT3620:

Remember that you're limited to 28MB Soundfonts even with 32MB RAM.

edit ^^^^^ Yep, just like above posters video!!!

Just another thought (not sure which version of awe control panel you use)

When I load in sound fonts on my CT3600, it asks for .sbk files, but you can click the drop down in the search window and change it from .sbk to "all files", select your sf2 sound fonts and load them right in. Works like a charm for me.

Maybe that will do it for you?

Sup. I like computers. Are you a computer?
