I'm not sure about that... the only way "samples packs are in Ogg format (stored in a WAV IIRC)" makes sense is if you substitute "Vorbis" for "Ogg" since Ogg is just a container and it doesn't seem that useful to store Ogg-anything in a WAVE file. It would be possible to store raw Vorbis in WAVE chunks though. Josh __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
