Hello All,
I'm a sound developer and the owner of Bolder Sounds. I have been developing EXS libraries for many years.
I have had a number of customers tell me of late that with Logic X, the EXS24 cannot find the referenced samples for a number of my EXS24 instruments - even though they are certainly in the folder they download from my site.
Well - I have been using Logic since the Emagic days. And the last few years I have been using and developing for version 9.
So - I needed a new Mac laptop and bought a MacBook pro running Yosemite 10.10. I had Logic X preinstalled so I could get right to work and have a clean machine and see what issues my customers are dealing with.
First of all - the version X looks almost totally unrecognizable to me. I don't mean to be negative, but it look like a gigantic version of Garage Band now - but I digress ..
Looking through the user guide pdf - I do a search on the topic of the EXS24 and there are a number of entries, but I really don't see simple instructions on 1. Loading the EXS into a channel strip and 2. Where .exs instruments should be stored. I *know* where they should be stored (as in previous versions - Library/Application Support/Logic/Sampler Instruments
Is there a separate pdf dedicated to software instruments in Logic X? I've found the users guide and the effects pdf guide. But no guide to the software instruments (EXS, Sculpture)? If there is - where might I find it?
Also - what on earth happened to the EDIT button on the front panel of the EXS24? How do i get into edit mode?
Thanks for any help!
