Logic Pro 8 File name too long loading samples into EXS24?

[smperry99]

Recently I was attempting to chop up a sample and assign to different keys through the EXS24 sampler as I normally would do. However when I drag the various regions into the EXS24 to assign to contiguous zones the following message is displayed "file name too long." After I click ok it appears the regions are assigned but I can not play them on my contoller. Is this problem easily fixed? If so what and where do I rename? -Kinda confused, pls HELP! Thx!
