Will it make AKP programs? I read up that is it mostly for Logic`s EXS sampler.

Working on it. There's basically two ways to do this:
1. use the sample as an F-1 at 44.1 khz and tune it by -23
2. use the sample as an F#-1 at 48 khz and tune it (as well) with -23
The second method will yield a slightly better tuning.
What's nice about having the samples at 2048 sample length is that you can easily 'transpose' an octave by making shorter samples that are exactly half the lenght. So you'll get an F#0, F#1, F#2 etc. Because it's a nice multiple of 2 you won't get all sorts of weird artefacts from halving the sample like that.
I'll do some programming tonight and set up an APK template and I'll show you how it's done in Soundforge (it's better to make a short looped sample for each octave)....

Do they need to be tuned and stuff like you were talking about in the advanced sampling thread?Yes, you can replace them with your own: the tuning and mapping you can use. OF course you do need to make 'half size' copies of the sample (those will be a octave higher every time you do that)...just look at the individual samples and you'll see what I mean.

From that I built the other F# keys and I put those in the Akai. Mapped it (using my earlier SmoothSquare as my template)...I used two detuned versions of the sample single sample to give the piano it's chorus like sound (classic trick) and added a short untuned 'attack' portion from the original file.
