I know this has been asked several times on the net.  However, while I
have seen several questions, I haven't seen any solutions yet. Hopefully
there are some.
 
I am having difficulty loading sampled sounds into SONIX to
use as instruments.  I am using Future Sound to create IFF sound
files, both one shot and 3 octave files.  I then rename them to .instr
files and load them into SONIX 2.0, which shows a waveform plot.
Following the directions in the SONIX manual I then save them to disk
which creates both a .instr and .ss file.  I then reload this file and
obtain a sample sound screen with sliders.  However, when I try using
the keyboard to play the sound, nothing!  Also, if I try loading the
sound into a score, nothing!  I have tried various sample rates,
lengths, etc. all with no luck.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
