Waymond Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Does anyone have trouble editing Aiff files in the sample editor? When I change the regions, it doesn't alter the start and stop points I set them at. Not a biggie because a majority of the samples I work with are .wav. However, it would be nice to know if there is a setting I could change so this doesn't occur. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Hello Waymond, Please add your Logic version and system info to your signature: Forum Rules - please READ THIS before posting (#5) Are you trying to change the start and stop point in the sample editor, and expecting them to change accordingly in the Arrange area, but the regions are staying the same in the Arrange area?

Waymond Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 Sorry about that. Fixed it. Yeah, exactly. When I slice AIFF files in the EXS, and try to adjust the region start/stop, they play the original sample without any changes. Thanks, David.

David Nahmani Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 We'll need a bit more info: can you share your detailed workflow: - How do you slice the AIFF? - How do you open the slices in the sample editor? - How do you adjust the region start/stop? In the EXS, choose View > Zone: Sample to see the sample start and end numbers. You should see those numbers updated when you resize the sample in the sample editor.

Waymond Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 I drag in the AIFF from my browser, slice up my sample on the main page, and convert to sample to a new sampler track. When editing the sample, I usually click on the sample in the exs and open in sample editor. From there, I adjust the sample in there. It works when I adjust the sample on the EXS with the start and end numbers. However, the numbers don't change when I adjust it in the sample editor. Any thoughts on why it doesn't work in the sample editor? Thank you, sir! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waymond Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 How are you adjusting the region start/stop in the sample editor? By dragging the blue region marker to where I want to start and stop the sample. Apologies for not clarifying that detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Alright, I just wanted to make sure we ruled out pilot error - but yes unfortunately you're doing it right and it should update the Sample start/end points in the Instrument Editor. Why it sometimes does and sometimes doesn't remains a mystery: EXS24 can't loop sample FWIW I haven't had that issue lately and I just tried it again and could not replicate. Rather than chopping the regions in the Arrange area my workflow is to edit the transients in the sample editor and create the sampler instrument using transients markers (not regions). Not sure if that makes a difference but just thought I'd throw that out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waymond Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 Ahhhh that's so weak. I hope they fix it. Well, thanks for all your help. I appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 You're welcome, I'm actually surprised that we don't have more people complaining about that issue, especially since we have many users here that are heavy EXS24 users. I wish we could find out what set of conditions was creating the problem... as I said, I haven't had it in a long while (crossing fingers).

sijam Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 This is driving me insane! Was there ever a fix for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdik Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Is there any solution for this yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambosun Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hopefully such things get updated if there will be an exs overhaul or a complete new sampler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdik Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Hopefully such things get updated if there will be an exs overhaul or a complete new sampler. Yes! But until then we can't have a sampler ignoring start/end points. That's an essential function! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
