magpie Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Updgraded from 8 to 9 then update to 9.01. When trying to open up my custom EXS samples, I get the sample not found warning. I have tried deleting all the Instruments, and recopying them from an external drive. I've read various posts on this, but have not found a fix yet...does anyone have a final answer?

magpie Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 Samples are stored on external drive (shown in photo). EXS is set to search all drives. When I copy the samples to the internal drive, they work. Bollocks. Never had a problem with external drive until the update to 9.0.1.

fuzzfilth Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 There's a preference panel in EXS's options menu where you can set which drives are being searched for samples. Tried that ? Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpie Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 Yes, I normally have it set on External only, but have tried switching for troubleshooting purposes. Still no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Third Beach Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I have the same problem. The only solution that has worked for me is to load each sample into the exs24 of Logic 8 first. For some reason doing this points the sampler in Logic 9 in the right direction and the samples load. Unfortunately I've had to do it for every single sample. It appears that you can't teach the exs24 in Logic 9 to fish. I'm on a G5 and when I called Apple support for help I was rudely told that they would not help in any way because I was not using a supported machine. Mac since 1993, Logic since 2.0 . Have a nice day. Cheers, Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpie Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 Wow, insult to injury! Too bad Apple has to take that stance. Thanks for the info Doug, I'll give it a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hricco Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Same here, Just have to click threw or load each one. I have been clicking and loading snare and kick samples for days now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Athens Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Hi people, Did anyone tried to use the alias method so EXS would locate the sample libraries from the external hard drives? Make an alias of the original sample library folder and place it to : user/library/application support/logic/sampler instruments when all the aliases of sample libraries are located there EXS will include them in its samples menu...autoload them i use this method many years and i never had problems Hope it will help Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpie Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 Chris- Unfortunately the problem happens regardless of where the instruments are stored. I normally use and prefer the method your referring to, but since the samples have quit loading, I've switched back to the normal method just to isolate the issue.
