I bought an m audio sample cd for rock drums. But its 24 bit and won't play in my pc or w/ windows media player or through my MOTU. Anyway to convert the files to 16 bit or to get them to work?

thanks to any advice

... I thought every soundcard played 24 bit sound...lol.

Maybe they saved it as a data cd. I know I received a live sound kit that was a data cd.

The mediaplkayer and those kinds of programs can't play 24bit. You need to insert it into a music program. Cubase, FL or whatever. Those programs are made to deal with those formats.

Good luck

Thanks Andreas, I open the loops with Recycle or can edit them in Sound Forge to whoever else has this problem. Sucks though, cause I wanted 1 shot acoustic drum hits and they're all loops.
