Conversion of very old Samplitude files WA0 WA1 HDP etc..

I hope this is the right place to ask this question. I'm not sure Magix Samplitude is in any way way related to the old SEKD Samplitude studio. About 20 years ago, I recorded a number of songs using SEKD Samplitude Studio. All I have left are backup CDs with a bunch of .HO .H1 .HDP .WA0 .WA1 files. I no longer have the application, just the files. I'd like to convert these old files into some format that I could use with my current recording studio (on a MAC), perhaps a .WAV or .MP3 format? Is there a converter I could use or perhaps better still a 3rd party provider that could do the conversion?

@freds_28if I believe these are only assistance files that store information about edits or waveforms. Do you also have the WAV recordings?

I suspect the WA0 and WA1 files are the WAV recordings of the first and second track and the HDP file is the project file. Modern Samplitude seem to be still able to load HD Wave (hdp) projects.
