I use chickensys translator (cakewalk edition) to translate the Battery3
format into sfz. It seems is the only one to do such translation, and
it's very buggy.
When I edit a .sfz file that has been translated from a .kt3 (NI
Battery3), I follow these steps:

# comment the opcode "name"
find . -type f -name "*.sfz" -exec sed -i 's:name=:// name=:g' {} \;

# rename the opcode "volume_group" to "volume"
find . -type f -name "*.sfz" -exec sed -i 's/volume_group/volume/g' {} \;

# rename the opcode "pan_group" to "pan"
find . -type f -name "*.sfz" -exec sed -i 's/pan_group/pan/g' {} \;

# remove the opcode "groupIdx"
find . -type f -name "*.sfz" -exec sed -i 's/groupIdx=[^ ]* //g' {} \;

# rename the opcode "tune_group" to "tune"
find . -type f -name "*.sfz" -exec sed -i 's/tune_group/tune/g' {} \;

# lowercase
find . -name "*.kt3" -exec rename 'y/A-Z/a-z/' {} \;
find . -name "*.sfz" -exec sed -i 's/\(.*\)/\L\1/' {} \;

I also change the relative path to absolute path.
There are bugs in the translation process of filters, eq, tune(sfz uses
transpose+tune).
