*.01 files to wav?

[Flying_Dutchman]

Hi,

i got a problem:

i got *.01 files, files to make an intro for a record.
The guy who gave me the files forgot that i haven´t got pro tools.
I can´t get him on the phone at the moment.
Is there a way to get wav-files out of this?

Thanks!

.01 files never heard of.

These are probably Sound Designer II files. Which a PC can't read.

I'm not at the studio at the moment so unfortunately I can't help you.

If you're still in contact with that guy let him do a session copy changing the audio into WAV's.

i tried to open in Cubase. Sound Designer II can be done, i think.
It´s frustrating.
Can´t get the guy to phone.
I need some of the files to do an intro for my band.
We going on a small europe tour tomorrow morning, i thnik i should do another intro..argh.

Thank you,

it didn´t work...
so it must be another file format, not SDII.
Very frustrating...
Cheers

If all else fails Audacity can import raw files. I've been able to open all kinds of weird unknown audiofiles. You'll need to manually cut the data parts which can be some work if there's a lot of files.

If you have a small file - email it to me at rail at railjonrogut • com

Trying to help you here, but the download is restricted to dial up speed unless I pay Rapidshare.


Any way you could put it up an FTP site???

Flying_Dutchman-

The junk in that "__MACOSX" folder may point you somewhere unless that was somehow created after the transfer. I doubt that's the case though, as it has names and info in it which you wouldn't have gotten if nothing recognized the files on your machine.

Opening a few of those header files or whatever they are in wordpad gives scattered info on sample rate, channels, and some actual file names. "Sound Ideas" is in there, so I guess they're from one of their sound effects libraries. Googling some of the other names turns up mp4a format, and renaming a few to mp4 allowed Winamp to load them and give me some file info, but most either don't play or zip past at a ridiculous rate.

It's a start I guess, but don't eliminate the possibility that header info or data got mangled somewhere along the transfer. The fact that they don't all act the same when renamed to mp4 doesn't look promising. You may have better luck opening them on a Mac and converting to something else.

Hope that helps,

George

Yes they can - although zipping used to be the way to stop that from happening. They lose the resource fork (Mac OS9 data thingy, no I don't understand it fully either) that stops them from being recognised as the correct type of file. USed to screw up PT5 session files too...
