adding new sounds to exs24.

I have a cd from Loopmasters Sample Library that contains .exs files with wav - where would I add exs file to use it in logic studio. I can use wave as sample sound, but the exs file is a problem, I simply do not know where to put it and how?

import or drag?

 

Thanks in advance

Put the *.exs & *.wav files in the following path:

 

/Users/You/Library/Application Support/Logic/Sampler Instruments/

 

You can create sub-folders in there - I have one "My Instruments" - You can create sub-folders (Bass, Drums, Leads etc) The sample instruments will then show in the EXS24.

 

Hope this helps...

ok so I created the folder " My Instruments " it shows up - when I open the folder it shows the sound but it asks for wav. file which I put with the exs file but no luck.

 

Thanks Andy for the response;I hope to resolve this.

The .wav files should be in /Users/You/Library/Application Support/Logic/Samples.

now I am confused, because I do not have sample folder there - I found /Sampler instrument folder which contains Loopmaster Sample Library. and all folders but it does nothing. If someone could tell me where I am going wrong - thanks for the responses.

Did Logic not give you the option to locate the .wav files yourself?

 

As long as the .exs files are in the .../sampler insruments folder, it shouldn't matter where the .wavs are.

yes logic asked to locate the file and when I press ok it says again that it can not locate, so I am not sure y as I checked around and it really should be simple process. thanks

Ok I tried other instruments and it worked so I figure there is something wrong with Loopmasters Sample Library - if any one has any Ideas let me know, I guess I can live with out it for now. Thanks for the help.

Have you checked permissions for the samples folder?

 

If that's ok, how about fixing disc permissions? It's worth a go...

Ok LOOPMASTER Studio sent me new files and it works fine it is something wrong with my CD. Solved

Thanks Everyone for your Help

 

ps: I still managed to use the old cd - ok so what i did is this - I opened exs24 than pressed the instrument, (Absence than Bass Taki in my case)- I continued without wav. when it said it could not locate and than I went to exs24 edit once the preset was loaded - it showes the audio in zones with "!" so I presses and it askes if i want load, so manually I have to load each Zone

and than it works. when you click on wav. file it says bad file name or volume name ( perhaps zero length) thought I share my discovery
