LPX: Just opened and I'm getting drum kit updates

Does it include any new drummers too?

No new drummers. The only way to get new drummers would be to update Logic Po X, this is just a content update.

 

Was your download successful?

Yes. However I don't see any changes, and I have no new settings in Drum Kit Designer. I was hoping for new drum kits, but I guess they're just updated drum kits.

I think this is very strange.

I downloaded the three Drum kit packages the manual way (described in other threads).

Almost 4 GB.

I opened them with Pacifist.

I compared modification date and privileges with the original packages I downloaded earlier.

 

I could not find any differences!

 

To me it seems as you could pass on these ones.

Because all my samples are on a second disk, I could easily compare old & new (as they're being installed (no choice) on the system disk), and there are differences, albeit subtle/not spectacular.

LATER EDIT: I compared a few more, and it seems I "got lucky" with this one example, because all other newly installed drum .cafs indeed appear identical to the old ones (exact same number of bytes in the "get info" window, identical creation date).

Hmm, problems..

 

I got no error messages. But when closing and reopening, it's like I never downloaded anything. It wants to do it all over again.

Having the same problem here :?

 

This is even happening to me with the 10.0.4 update, which I've already updated. Software update keeps alerting me it's a new update.

I confirm assessor's claim.

 

Byte by byte comparison using cmp on the command line says the installers are identical.

Thank you for your confirmation!

 

To be clear: I confirm this too. The difference in that particular .caf on my disk I (cautiously) reported earlier was probably due to different permission settings, and different "open with..." setting, both of which I set on that file. All other pairs of files, which I didn't touch, were identical.

Same here, still thinks content needs to be downloaded.

 

My kits are OUTDATED!!!???

 

Can't be having old smelly drum kits on my hard drive...or they could be good for a funky groove! :roll:
