Actually, "cube", you can use the converted files you've made. From your description, I am assuming that you're installing the "snd" resources using RedEdit. And, like me, you've run into the out of memory error dialog. If so, then here's the fix...
a) Quit ResEdit.
Find the ResEdit app and open the "Get Info" window.
c) Select memory on the drop down of info to show.
d) Increase the max memory to a reasonable level; mine is currently at 4MB (4096kb). [The suggested memory on V2.3.1 is 520kb, and my minimum was set to under 400kb, and the max was very low (under 1MB).]
e) Now reopen ResEdit and try your copy/paste operations again, and you should find the sounds install with no problems. Just make sure the ID and name are identical.
FYI,
Steve C.
