.ncw to .wav?

[Robert Puza]

if I understand it correctly, it is allowed to use Pianobook samples. But if they are in .ncw (Kontakt) format, how do I convert them to .wav? the best would be a solution for Linux, but it is not a condition. If he could solve it more easily in Windows, that's also good. Please help

I convert other formats using Audacity, but .ncw is not accepted by Audacity

@Robert-Puza I don't know of any third party software that works with ncw. You'll need to load the library in Kontakt, and go file > save as and uncheck "Compress Samples". The good news is Kontakt works well with WINE.

@Lindon I am surprised that it is such a problem to convert. But thanks for the responses

It's a proprietary format for a proprietary sampler by a proprietary company :)

@d-healey I understand now. I will not use anything that cannot be opened with an open source tool. (it is not compatible with my philosophy) Thank you.

I will find other samples
