Dimension Pro Sample Formats?

I have to believe this informatino is somewhere on the Cakewalk Dimension Pro page, but I sure can't find it. What format(s) for samples/libraries does Dimension Pro support?

Thanks in advance.

    The .sfz format is pretty cool. You can create/edit .sfz files in notepad. The format is explained at this link:

    None, I'm afraid.

    And what is to be cool with editing a textfile to make libraries, I do not understand.

    But there are some converters to sfz:
    www.extranslator.com

    The best converter around, it seems. And reasonable money too.

    But the structure of samplers are somewhat different and filter and stuff sound different and so on, so how accuarate conversion will be depends. Libraries that use a lot of filter envelopes and such will likely not sound the same on two different samplers.

    One of the good points is that if you set up a program, you can easily do a "find and replace" for samples in the text file.

    You left out *.ogg samples (which can be mapped via *.sfz).
