Option to sample-convert to SD - JX3D - 11-02-2021

The NS does sample conversion internally, so if loading a 16 bit sample, it will convert it to 8 bit, and so on.

I was thinking it could be nice to use this conversion to allow the user to save the converted sample on to the SD card - or maybe an option in the sample window to convert all files in a specific path. Either way, it would be nice if it leaves the original files unchanged and make copies - and perhaps moves the original files to an \ORIG folder in the specified path.

Having this option, should make the loading speed faster - and...

I don't know if the displayed sample memory available is calculated after the internal conversion, or at file level? But if it is at file level, then this option could open up for using more samples after the conversion. And if it is at file level, this may be a limit that can be removed (lowered), if calculated as converted.
