Can't use EXS24 instruments

Hi everybody,
I opened up one of my Garageband projects today, and when I opened it, I got a message that said
Can't load "Studio Heavy Kit.exs". missing file YT2_CBLOHTX01.aif not found!
I just recently bought both Logic Pro and Mainstage from the app store, and installed the additional content. Now, I'm opening the project for the first time since I did that, and now I can't use the Studio Heavy Kit. I tried reinstalling the additional content but still nothing. FYI, I downloaded Garageband through the app store as well. I tried looking for a solution on the net and had no success. I am also missing other bass instruments and drum instruments as well.
Before that, I already had the jam packs installed through the installation files my friend sent me. When I tried installing them, I got an error message saying something about "PPC applications are no longer supported."
This is ******* me off and I really want to use my projects again. If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it.

Hi
The 'Subby Bass' samples are part of the "Rhythm Section" content.
Note that a lot of the 'JamPack' samples and Instruments are installed in
Library:Application Support:GarageBand:Instrument Library:Sampler.
Check to see if the files have been installed.

    Can I use the instrument I/O assistant express vi to communicate with a USB connected instrument ? My PC is running Windows 2000 et Labview7 express.
    where can I get information or examples on the assistant and USB communication ?

    Yes you can - the Instrument I/O Assistant communicates with message-based instruments through VISA. VISA 3.0 supports USB instruments and VISA 3.0 is the version of VISA that installs with the Assistant.

  • Logic Express 7 Demo - Can I Use GB Instruments?

    I am trying the LE7 demo and want to why I'm unable to find/use my GarageBand 2 software instruments with it? I thought they would be recognized in the LE7 demo Loop Browser, but that's not the case.
    If the GB instruments will not work in the demo, then can I download some free instruments to use in the demo and if so, what file type must they be?

    Well thanks for the info MLehmann!
    I tried that, but it doesn't seem to be the same thing I thought it was.
    I am trying to use software instruments only to create test songs in the demo, like one can in GB.
    For example, in GB you can pick a certain drum beat, strings, horns, etc., put it on the time line wherever you want it and make a song from it. Easy creation using software-based instruments.
    Is it not that straightforward in LE?

  • Can I use GPIB instruments via GPIB-USB-HS and NI-VISA on MacOS with Matlab somehow?

    I've just installed NI-488.2 (14.1) and I can see my GPIB instruments in the NI-MAX app. However I can not find them in the tmtool function in Matlab. Aparently Matlab on mac does not support GPIB (http://se.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2014b/instrument/supported-hardware.html) but it does support VISA. 
    Do you think there might be a way to connect to my devices in Matlab through VISA some how?

    Hi thanks for you answer.
    Yes, I installed this version: http://www.ni.com/download/ni-488.2-14.1/5090/en/ which says: "NI-488.2 for Mac OS X, Version 14.1, installs NI-VISA and NI-MAX by default". I can also see all the correct .framework-files in the "Library/Frameworks/"-folder:  
    And since I can see (and query) the GPIB devices in both the "/Applications/National Instruments/NI MAX.app" and "/Applications/National Instruments/NI-VISA/NI-VISA Configuration.app/
    HOwever Matlab does not want to detect any VISA drivers...

  • How can I use the instrument toolbox in MATLAB 6.1 to contol the PCI-GPIB card under Linux?

    I'm trying to use the PCI-GPIB controller to control lab equipment through MATLAB 6.1 (R12.1) under Linux. MATLAB's instrument toolbox seems to integrate with NI's board, but the MATLAB documentation says it requires the installation of a driver. I've downloaded the linux gpib driver, and I'm able to run the associated utilities (ibconf, ibic, ibsta), but MATLAB cannot interface to it. For example,
    >> g=gpib('ni',0,1)
    ??? Error using ==> gpib/gpib
    The specified VENDOR adaptor could not be found.
    Where can I find a MATLAB driver and how can I install it?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Hello-
    The knowledge base: "Can Matlab for Windows Call the National Instruments GPIB Driver?" Also applies to this question as well. This article is very extensive. Try searching on ni.com for "+matlab +gpib" for more details.

  • EXS24 Instrument editor

    By hitting certain notes on the keyboard we can trigger different sounds in EXS24.
    How can I setup EXS24 Instrument editor so when instrument is loaded it plays the first sound?
    The only way to do this is arrange the groups in alphabetical order. Then loaded instrument plays the first group.
    That's how it used to be in Logic 7.
    But how can I do it in Logic 8?

    Your question is a little bit confusing
    What are you loading? Factory instrument sets that came with Logic or your own samples?
    If you are loading your own samples, after creating a new instrument you need to create zones, where you can define the range and basic note of the samples (and much more).
    Probably "all notes play at the same time" happens because you are not assigning zones to the individual samples.
    Please start reading at page 520 of the Logic Pro 7 Plug-in Reference Manual for all the detailed information you need.
    Hope this gets you on the succesful track of managing the instrument editor, which IMO is beautiful and powerful.
    Don't forget to create great music!

  • Using EXS24 as a multi-timbral instrument?

    Just wondering if there is any advantage to using the EXS24 as a multi-timbral. I've got a fairly muscular tower with 10 gigs of RAM, and have been using EXS simply as a single track plug-in, thus having three or four going at once.
    Any advantage to going multi-timbral? And where might I find instructions in the manual? I'm using Omnisphere and RMX, which both have their own mixers ... so I can't quite figure out how one would do multi-timbral with the ESX.
    All ears...
    Ben

    You can't place different instruments on different MIDI channels all in one instance; it's designed as a mono-timbral sampler, but with multi-outs. It's efficient too, so multiple instances is the way to go.

  • Can I use instrument driver in a software applicatio​n

    Hi,
    I'd like to develop a generic driver to control any instrument from a software application . Can I use the LabWindows/CVI wizard to succeed ?
    Once I have created my dll, does it mean something to call IVI function from a sofware application ? (for example : in a Visual C++ application, can I call Prefix_init and after Prefix_WriteInstrData if I have connected an Instrument with an input ?).
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Using the IVI class driver in your application you can at least use the same program to communicate with instruments belonging to the same class.
    To acomplish this you need the specific driver for the instrument. The class driver provides a standard API you can use in your application. The class driver in turn calls the specific instrument driver that you have configured.
    If you call WriteInstrData you still need to determine the command string you need to send to the instrument. The IVI driver wraps the instrument I/O, using the attribute model or high level functions.

  • Can I use Mainstage software instruments in Logic Express 9?

    I would like to add more software (MIDI) instruments to Logic Express 9. I understand Mainstage comes with what used to be called Jam Packs. Can I use those Mainstage software instruments in Logic Express 9? If not, where do i find additional software instruments?

    All JamPacks: yes, no problem.
    Actual instruments, effects, like Space Designer: no, they are part of the application code (MainStage or Logic Pro)

    I want to record a podcast using my Mackie mixer and have the mix sent to Garageband through the USB I/0, but it doesn't seem to give me the option.
    i think the first thing to do would be to check with Mackie support. two things noted on Mackie's website:
    DRIVERS::
    No Driver Required for Supported Windows (PC) or OS X (Mac) Versions
    (note "supported")
    and
    For the Mac::
    Mac OS X 10.4.11 – 10.7.1
    ask if their firmware currently supports OS X 10.9.x

  • Why can't GB let me use 'electric guitar' option when using Nio 2/4 interface - I have to use real instrument and miss out on all the effects. Is this normal for all interfaces?

    Why can't GB let me use 'electric guitar' option when using Nio 2/4 interface - I have to use real instrument and miss out on all the effects. Is this normal for all interfaces? The Nio reads hte guitar but GB doesn't....

    Usually effects packages are AU plugins that would have no effect on track selection. Interfaces should have no control over what kind of track you can select. I really think something else is going on her maybe something you overlooked.
    Did you choose the input channel in the track info pane. Try both channel 1 mono or channel 2 mono. Make sure the track is record enabled.

  • Can I use my Maschine knobs to control multiple instruments "smart controls" in LPX independently?

    Can I use 1 hardware contoller to control multiple instruments "smart controls" in LPX?  For example....if I mapped 1 instrument's smart controls to my maschine contoller would it overwrite them if I mapped another instruments smart controls to them?  I'm wondering if I can switch between mapping's based on which instrument/track I have selected. I know I can do this with quick learn feature....problem is you can only use 1 knob with it.

    Thank you for your help, my example is working.  Please look the my revised example and let me know if I'm making it more complicated than necessary.  In order for it to work,
    1.  I created a cluster on my front panel to hold the control group reference numbers,
    2.  Converted it to typedef,
    3.  Used bundle with name to stuff the control reference numbers into my RefCluster,
    4.  Used the RefCluster typedef in my subVI,
    5.  In the subVI, I had to add a variant to data command before using the data.
    I also extended the example to actually change values on the front panel to verify that it worked as I intended.

  • Can I use Logic ESX 24 sounds for Band In A Box?

    Hi,
    This is probably a Band In A Box question - however - it does have to deal with Logic. Perhaps someone can show me where to look online - or just answer the question:
    Do you know if there is a way to use Logic ESX 24 sounds in place of the dinky sounds that come with Band In A Box?
    Thanks!

    hear is another thought. could you use the staff in GB to position the chords as you want them? you would not have to play them. you can move the on the staff so that they play the note you wanted.
    i don't know. i was just trying to give you some suggestions. biab seems really cool, and if it does what you need then that is awesome, but i don't think you will get exs24 instruments into it. you might be able to, but for the time it will take you you probably could just play the chords.
    will logic's score not let you enter in the desired chords? i do not use logic's score, but it seems like you could just create an arrangement by dragging notes/chords to the desired position without playing a note.

  • Question for EXS24 instrument editor experts!

    Can anybody help with this?
    here's what I'm trying to do:
    I'm trying to combine a solo violin instrument and a solo cello instrument into one EXS24 instrument that has the violin in the higher octaves and the cello in the lower octaves, not overlapping (to use with my EWI).
    These are VSL (Vienna Symphonic) instruments, a different sample every half step, 3 velocity layers (different group for each velocity layer). So each instrument has around 150 audio samples.
    Here's what i tried so far:
    I opened the violin instrument, I added a new group and named it "solo cello pp". I drag dropped all the cello pp samples into the new group. I chose "auto map" in the dialog box.
    OK, when I look in the new group it got all the zone key notes right (zone key note matches the audio sample name)
    But... every zone has a key range of "Lo C-2, hi G8" so when I play the patch I'm hearing all the samples playing at once (because every zone has the full key range)
    OK ... I can just go type in the correct key range for each zone (like for the A#3 sample: "Lo A#3, hi A#3" etc.) but with 150 samples per inst., that's typing in a field 300 times! Kind of insane! and I plan to build several instruments like this (trombone/trumpet, bassoon/oboe etc.)
    Is there a smarter way to do this?
    I suppose I could probably just keep the violin & cello instruments separate, constrict their ranges so they don't overlap, have them on separate tracks, record enable both tracks, and play it that way. But it would just be more idiot proof to have it all in one EXS24 instrument.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    EXS is not the easiest to work with.........
    but , do this:
    bring two EXS's up on two different channels.
    load the vlns in one, the cello in the other.
    open the cello edit pane. switch to "group" and select all groups.
    open the edit menu and click on "copy".
    next, open the vln editor, then click on edit and select "paste".
    this should copy the cello in the vln pane.
    if they overlap, you'll have to move them an octave and probably limit the range.
    save as....... a new patch.
