I'm new to Logic but am loving the heck out of it!!! Can someone assist me if you load a mapped drum sample into the EXS and you want to have multi outputs. For Example, Kicks can be assigned to an output of channel 1 Snare to channel 2 and so forth. Was a little confused with the zones, groups etc. Maybe someone can dumb it down for me. Love this user group board by the way. Keep it up!!!!!! Toshi

Look in the exs24 editor and click on groups, the outputs are listed in the seventh column from the left, click and hold to change. Mike

Hi Matt, Check the "level via velocity" setting on the front panel - to the right of the filter section. -------- Eli Krantzberg http://www.elikrantzberg.com http://www.nightshiftorchestra.com

Mike - Thanks so much for your help! Unfortunately I'm using 7 pro. Any ideas with that? Thanks again!

You may have to go to the groups menu and tell it to show you the group outputs (or is it the view menu, don't have it in front of me at the mo!) other than that it should be very similar. You'll need to create the aux output object manually and assign them to the exs24s outputs (ie new audio object in the environment, change the Channel setting to the next free aux, and assign the in (in the i/o box) to the right instrument no. and output) but its all definitely doable in 7.x (and all previous vrs. that allowed multi outs.) Mike

I also would like to have such a dl site. Working a lot with demos and always need new and better sites to help me in the work. Would appreciate your input. ___ http://www.saxophonepeople.com/

Mike - You're a Wizard! Thanks so much for the feedback and putting me on the Yellow Brick Road. Thanks your help! I have reached OZ! Many Many thanks, Toshi PS. I'm upgrading to 8. Sounds like those steps are a lot less in 8 than 7. Thanks again!

Hello all, I'm really interested in trying some Soundfonts in the Exs sampler. However, most sites I go to have "windows only" versions of them. Still others require a "conversion" program to unpack them or whatever. Sorry for my ignorance on the subject - what's the best way to find good soundfonts for the Mac and unpack/unzip/convert them etc. for use in the EXS sampler? I'm suing Logic 8. Thanks in advance! Tom

I'm suing Logic 8. Don't sue them! Apple is on very tedious financial ground - one lawsuit could break them. =) (ok, ha ha, I type "suing" for "using" all the time too) Yeah, that sfark thing is a proprietary compression thing for SF's. I actually have clients often send me the files and I unpack them for them and send them back, I'll do the same for you if you'd like. A good reason to have a spare PC around (ow ow, stones flying, ow ow!!!)

If you don't have a PC or a friend near you that could save you some money. (2) Bismark free soundfont player also opens any soundfont on the Mac: http://homepage.mac.com/bismark/downloads.html But it just plays them. He has a pay version which I don't know if you can save it in a different format and open it in EXS. I could open sound fonts directly in EXS until version 6.xx the way it is described in the manual. I wonder what has been changed since.

can you hold a sample for longer than the original in the EXS24?? ie - an organ sound original sample is ----------- long and i want to play it... ---------------------- long? thx in advance

Good day exs-users, I am new to the group and a basic user of Micrologic AV. Can anyone advise on how I could obtain a copy of the EXS24 application for a Windows machine? Appreciate any assistance that you may be able to provide. Selwyn.

Logic has been a Mac-only product since 7/1/02. Not sure if someone would be willing to sell you an XSKey with 5.5.1 authorization and even if this would be at all legal, but this is your only option AFAICT. Best, Andy

I have started to use the EXS 24 edit function more recently. Its great for separating drum kits into aux channels so you can apply different FX / levels to different parts of the drum kit, especially key bits like kick / snare. So the other day, I decided to see what would happen if i Changed the octaves outputs of a Piano sample. I used a multi-channel plugin, set the key range of the first zone from C1-B1, second zone to C2-B2, and so on. I then set their respective outputs to Aux1, Aux2 and so on. I was expecting no change except which aux the sound came out of. However, it made all the octaves on the piano identical, so there was only 1 pitch of each note wherever on the keyboard you played it. Can anybody explain this?

PLease, someone help me, please!

Yes- you need to make sure the "pitch" parameter is enabled. You can select all zones and once and click it on - no need to use a modifier. With this parameter off, every note sounds at the pitch of the root note of the sample being triggered.
