Share your knowledge on these two classic MPCs

Hello everyone,

Please forgive me if the answer has been posted but I have searched and could not locate anything that explains what I am trying to accomplish.

1. I have a ton of MPC 60 II floppies. They contain music I produced along time ago.
2. Flash forward to 2019. I now have a Macbook Pro 2015 with OS High Sierra.
3. How do I convert the .snd files or the actual floppy data to something I can use on my computer?
4. I'm really interested in getting the samples. I don't care about the other files.
(simply put, is there a way that I can convert the .SND samples to .WAV or any other format that my computer can read?)

Thanks in advance,

Try the MPC SOFTWARE 2.0 DEMO, it opens SND files and allows you to re-save them as wav files.: https://www.akaipro.com/mpc-software-2

Awave Studio however you need a Window OS computer. They have a MAC X version but not sure how well it works. Link: https://www.fmjsoft.com/awavestudio.html#main
