Archives tested ok so the problem is not there. If I were you I'd unpack these archives somewhere onto your Amigas harddrive and assign ST-18: and ST-19: there.

Floppydisks are nightmare from hell ;)

Simple answer: Amiga doesn't support pc-disks natively, forget it

Complex answer: there are many ways of mounting pc-disks on amiga and copy the files over. If you have cd-rom in your Amiga, burn the samples on cd and assign st-18: and st-19: to point there.

Install WinUAE

I'm not sure how the WinUAE suggestion is going to help your situation.

PC's cannot write to Amiga formatted floppy disks. There is some limited support for reading PC formatted floppies on an Amiga, but I'm not sure that Workbench 1.3 can do it without extra software.

The two easiest methods are to either buy a nullmodem serial cable and transfer the files that way (http://www.amigaforever.com/ae/), or have someone write the files on their Amiga and send the disk to you.


No, the easiest way is to install Winuae and run soundtracker + st-xx assigns from a working 3.x environment.
