Nick are you sure you aren't dropping data when streaming with firewire? in my testing, i've found that all drives (ata, scsi) will appear to playback as many voices as your CPU can handle. but the slower the drive, the more they have to drop data to do it. logic/EXS doesn't warn you that data has been dropped. but if you keep the EXS Virtual Memory panel open, you can see a figure for dropped sample data. i've personally found that ATA/100 drives in oxford911 firewire cases can stream about 110 stereo voices before dropping data. anyway, just wanted to mention it. cheers

I'm not sure, and maybe I'll repeat the test someday with that window open, although CM from VSL thinks I probably just have most of the data on the fast part of the drive. In any case, I think that Firewire's bandwidth shouldn't be an issue, i.e. you'd probably get the same result with the drive mounted internally. What could be an issue - and maybe I should have mentioned this - is that not all Firewire drives work 100% reliably in Pro Tools, so as a matter of course I move some of the tracks to the internal drive just to cut off any problems at the pass. You'll be going along fine, and then all of a sudden you'll get "disk too slow or fragmented" messages, when it's neither; moving tracks over is the only way to get it to be happy. I haven't experienced this with the EXS24 streaming voices, but it could happen. -- Nick Batzdorf 818/905-9101, cell 590-9101, fax 905-5434

Subject: Good piano sounds on EXSP24 CD???
Message #9765
Hi, I'm running Logic Audio 5.5 on my iMac; I have both OS 9 and OS X running, and the only thing that stops me from moving to OS X completely is the fact that there's no Audio Units version of Sampletank and Loopazoid :-( I've been playing with the 4-week-trial version of EXS24, and I like it a lot. BUT for me, that's quite an investment to make. I read on the Emagic website that if you buy the EXSP24 (the player version), you get 500 MB of samples for free. Is there a good piano on the CD??? For now, I'm quite happy with the Sampletank Free Piano. I know that there are better piano's out there (from Sampletank themselves, for example), but I'm not a pro pianist, so a piano of the same level as the Free Piano would be O.K. I do like a fairly "classic" sound (not the "sharp" rock piano sound). Thanks for any tips! Regards Jaap

And while I totally agree on this, there's still no reason for N.I.s file browsers to be THAT lousy (come on, Battery doesn't even have a resizeable "open" dialog, which is an OS standard, at least on Windows, a requirement in case you're browsing large sample directories) and the EXS editor an file management to be even lousier (why in the world do I have to save EACH instrument in case I only want to use it in ONE single song, such as a vocal track that I'd like quickly slap onto some EXS keys? The EXS is the ONLY softsampler requiring such a nonsense). IMHO this is simply ignorant behaviour. The EXS editor has been something that people were complaing about since the day it appeared, yet it has seen close to no improvements, not even with Logic 6. Pretty much a dissapointment, if you ask me. Still the easiest to handle general UI, still the lousiest editor. Regards, Sascha

I don't mind the Emagic Factory Piano, but it's definitely not the best I've heard, and the AKAI ones are WAY better. Seeing as they are both free, I use the AKAI ones all the time now.
