Does anyone know if it is possible to the reverse of a refil packer ?? ie turn refills into samples ???? That would be very useful!

Export everything painstakingly?

The whole concept of a refill is a bit dumb, if you ask me.

You could distribute a zip of samples / patches etc.

As TM said, there isnt a program that will do it for you.

Howvere there is a little work around.

You can use autoplay in the refill browser in Reason, soundforge and some of SF's functions to make it a little bit quicker.

Go into the folder containing the samples you want to rip. turn on autoplay in reason. Get soundforge recording and slowly go through the samples letting them play through.

When you have finished use autoregion in SF to seperate these samples and use the region to sample function to split em into seperate files, the saving them is up to you, but it gets round some of the problems.

I bet a refill is just a zip, or a tar.gz or something anyway.

Bit of poking around someone clever could work it out.

Im not a programmer tho TM. And no-one has done it yet, and if they have it wont be commercial as the Prop boys wouldnt allow it, too much invested in the format. Be nice if someone would tho.

I'll have a poke in a bit when I get a chance.

Hmmm, looks more complex than I thought.

Im sure its their own propriatry format, but like yourself im willing to bet its based on existing code. but which one?

Well, looking at the bumph it roughly halves the size of wavs etc.

Not sure what offers that kind of lossless compression over wav.
