You record MAS mode on the VS-880 and save it on an external disk (say SyJet or ZIP that was initilized by VS-880).
Empty Mac system from *ALL* disc drivers and use ONLY Anubis 2.54 to mount or initilize all your drives; remove PC/Mac exchange and use DOS95 Mounter to mount the external disk (ZIP or SyJet) on the desktop.
This is crucial - most people don't succeed as they have some of these drivers in the system and that causes problems ...
Then read the VS-880 track-files (those with the extension .vr8) into the Soundhack ($30 shareware from Tom Erbe): you have to change them from headerless into say .AIFF with 16 bit linear and then you read it into your Mac audio software ...
If you want to go back : save as .WAV in Sounhack first and just change the (dummy) extension .wav into vr8 without changing ANYTHING else (on SyJet or ZIP) - then when you re-connect to VS-880 - it will just read these files as before - i.e. assume it's the 'old' ones.
This procedure has to be followed RIGOROUSLY. Any change and you're in trouble.
The DOS95 Mounter and Soundhack download addresses are given on Timian's url:
together with many other useful tips by others.
Soon with Airworks VSlink you'll be able to transfer also MT1 & MT2 mode files .... Mac Nirvana ...
