EXS24 taking ages to load samples in Logic 9

I think in the old days, there was a Project Manager to help reduce sample loading times.  Has this feature disappeared?  My sampler is taking 10 minutes to load a sample.  Once it has loaded once, and I quit and reopen, it loads instantly. Is there a way to set the folder paths and scan all in one go?
Thanks in advance.

Here's how to sort out Spotlight:
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
Click Spotlight.
Click the Privacy tab.
Drag your hard drive(s) to the list.
Remove the item or volume you just added. (select and use the minus button under the list)
Spotlight will begin reindexing the volume(s) shortly(< 1min) after. The reindexing can take 5 to 20 minutes per volume, roughly, depending on the speed of of your Mac, disks and how full the disk(s) is(are).
Also, if you have a FAT32/windows/bootcamp partition, exclude that from Spotlight indexing permanently (=leave it on the Privacy list).

  • Wine is taking ages to load

    Wine is taking ages to load in my machine. When i run winecfg, for exemple, it takes about 10min to show me a window.
    $ winecfg
    wine: creating configuration directory '~/.wine'...
    Failed to open the service control manager.
    -> hangs here for about 10min
    I already enabled (and disabled) the DRI module in xorg.conf, but it didint helped anything. Delete the .wine folder is not the solution either because im having this problem since i instaled wine (but i erased the folder, anyway).
    $ wine --version
    wine-0.9.30
    So ... any tips?

    I have the same problem as you. I installed wine through pacman and when I do 'winecfg' , I have to wait a really long time until it loads. I don't understand why this is so. In all of the other linux distributions that I tried, wine started up quite fast (gentoo, ubuntu, zenwalk, fedora core, etc) Could someone please tell us why it takes a long time for wine to open. Thank you.
    My WINE version is wine-0.9.33
    PS: I am not sure if this would be the cause, although I don't know why it would do anything but, I am running the 32 bit Arch Linux on a 64 bit machine, and this is because I need to use wine for a certain something that I have to do for my school, so I don't want to use Arch64. I know that it is possible to get wine to work in 64 bit Arch, but I have no clue how to update the package along with the rest of the system, and I can't seem to get a chroot environment to work.

  • Just upgraded to firefox 4 and websites are now taking ages to load, there were no problems when I downloaded the upgrade. Is there a fault with the new version of firefox?

    Just upgraded to firefox 4 and websites are now taking ages to load, there were no problems when I downloaded the upgrade. Is there a fault with the new version of firefox?

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • Home page taking ages to load

    Hi all,
    i have developed a site using SiteStudio. It takes ages to load for the first time. When i investigate i could find that reason behind is huge number of HTTP request(58 total). about 90% of these hits is generated from CSS files and js file. As of now i have stored them inside the content server and accessing them from there. The css and js refers to may images receiding in the content server.
    IS there some way i can reduce the requests that are made.
    reagrds,

    Hi,
    What languages are you all using for your sites? We personally use JSP and get just amazing performance even under significant loads. I have seen a couple sites recently though that were dog slow, all of them though were running ASP.
    I've had a lot of luck diagnosing performance issues by using the FireBug plugin for Fire Fox. There's a "NET" tab on the plugin and it will give you the load time for each item on the page.
    Thanks

  • Loading Samples Outside Logic

    Greetings,
    I remember seeing a couple of posts where people mention loading their samples in some other program(s) so they can easily switch from song to song without reloading the samples.
    I'd like to do this all on a single machine rather than loading the samples on one machine and triggering them from another (as in a giga setup)
    I'd appreciate any advice on doing this - software recommendations, advantages and pitfalls.
    Thanks,
    MJ

    Presumably, this means running your soft sampler as a stand alone program, or in another host. Then all you have to do is route MIDI to it (using the IAC bus) and route the sampler's audio back into Logic (using Soundflower or equivalent).

  • Why is my Quick Preview taking ages to load

    I am finding the Quick Preview in Aperture is taking a long time to load the picture. I have to come out of quick preview to allow the picture to load and be clear. Once it has loaded, I can go back in to QP and it works as expected. Until I try to open the next picture.
    This has only started recently.Is it something to do with looking at masters instead of versions?

    My first (and perhaps only) guess is that you have (perhaps inadvertently) set Aperture to not create Previews (or deleted them).
    What happens if you select all the images in a Project and execute "Photos→Update Previews"? Does Aperture do anything?  Are you then able to quickly move through them using Quick Preview?

  • ITunes takes ages to load, then is really slow.

    So I've been trying to use iTunes the past day and it's been taking ages to load and then is really slow when its opened. I used the most recent version of iTunes 11. Uninstalled, Reinstalled. Deleted preferenced, Reinstalled. Using iTunes 10 (which worked very well in the past). Finally I gave up and factory reset my PC. And STILL the symptoms are here. My question to the community is if anyone else is experiencing this.
    PC Specs:
    i5 650 3.2GHz
    12GB RAM
    1TB HDD
    nVidia GeForce GTX460 SE
    So it's nothing to do with my hardware's capability.

    Small update...
    WHen Itunes did eventually load... a few odd things happened.
    1. The icons on my toolbar flicked to white / blank and then came back
    2. Windows Update sprang into life and asked me to install 1 important update
    3. I got an error message
    The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you?
    5. I clicked Yes...
    6. It said it was checking my itunes library
    7. I got a message The Bonjour service has been disabled. Bonjour is required to share music with others. Please re-enable the service to use this feature
    8. This didn't seem to bad so clicked OK
    9. BUt then Itunes disappeared again. It is still running in processes but isn't open.
    Gah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    * Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
    * Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    * Check the exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions
    * Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images)
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

  • Why can't I load some samples into Logic's EXS24??

    Hi everyone,
    I am having an issue with loading some of my samples into the EXS24. I am using OSX 10.3.9 and Logic 7.1.0. When I try to load a sample, I can see that it recognizes it, yet when I click on it the sample doesn't load. It doesn't even try to load, It just shows blank dots in the loading window. Can anyone help me with this? I have to have this to work for my job. Thanks so much for the input!
    -Matt

    When you say you are loading a sample, I presume you are not trying to load a sample using the EXS24?
    If you are, you should read the EXS24 manual, because that is not how it works - the EXS24 directly loads "sampler instrument" files only, and it's those that contain references to all the sample files.
    So you open the EXS editor, create a new instrument, load your samples into that, save it, and then select your instrument in the EXS24. Long-winded, but that's how it works.
    Or did you mean something else?

  • "Not Enough Memory To Load Samples..." hangs Logic

    So I'm sitting here watching my life pass before me as the SBBOD spins and spins. This was the result of my loading an EXS instrument which, halfway through loading generated an error message, "Not enough memory to load samples...". When I clicked "OK" on that dialog box, the SBBOD appeared and continues to spin as I write this.
    And spin...
    And spin...
    The song I'm working on has 30 active instruments, this one would have been #31.
    Anyway, my disgruntled side is wondering if a professionally written application should actually hang upon determining that there isn't enough memory for an operation. Why can't it just have recovered gracefully? Helll, my Akai S1000 wouldn't hang when it ran out of memory... Meanwhile, my calmer wanting-to-get-back-to-work side would love to get some constructive suggestions as to how to prevent this from happening in the future (aside from turning on virtual memory for EXS, which is not an option for me).
    Activity monitor reports that Logic is utilizing 3.06G of Real Memory, 3.51 of Virtual Memory.

    Thanks Justin. Got any suggestions for an external app? This idea is venturing into virgin territory for me...
    The issue, though, is not being able to know at load-time how much RAM any particular EXS instrument uses. It's possible to find out only afterwards how much it uses (by accessing the EXS Prefs panel and clicking on the Sample Storage menu. But doing that in and of itself is risky, as I've known this to also crash Logic). So really, I'd only know when to start using a ReWired app as a sampler after I crash Logic by trying to load up a "last straw" instance of EXS.
    Hey, you're a programmer, right?! Could you write me a routine for Logic that would intercept the loading of a newly selected EXS instrument by first doing a calculation to see how much RAM is required by that instrument, and then reporting if there's enough available RAM to actually load it into? If there isn't enough RAM, the routine would then abort the load. Without crashing, of course.   ;-)
    Whaddya say? (I know the answer, but I just had to ask...)

  • Loading Samples Into EXS24

    I have many cd's with .wav samples that I would like to load into the EXS24. Can someone give me STEP-BY-STEP instructions on how to get these into the folder they should be in so the EXS24 can read and load them...or any other possible solution for playing these sounds. Also, instructions on loading samples into Ultrabeat would be greatly appreciated...!!!!
    G5 Dual 2.5 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Create an EXS24 track/instance
    Open EXS Inst editor (from audio menu)
    Instrument>New
    Name/save to
    Select this inst in the EXS24 plugin
    Drop your files on the EXS Inst editor keyboard, save, continue editing
    Make sure your audio files are in the directory you want them to be referenced from... or use Project Manager to move them.
    Ultrabeat supports drag + drop too. Under Osc 1, hit sample and drag+drop on the box. There are many settings so... the volume and effects may come in to play.
    Cheers, J

    It is very difficult to offer troubleshooting suggestions when the "os version" you are using is unknown as each os has their own troubleshooting solutions. 
    How large is your hard drive and how much hard drive space do you have left? 

  • EXS24 loading samples become one semi tone lower than assigned key

    When I load samples into a new instrument as a zone by dragging them to a key, somehow they become assigned to the adjacent key, one semi tone lower than the note. Eg: I put a sample on C2, when I hit the keyboard it is tiggered by B1. How to resolve this ? Is there a setting somewhere ? It certainly does not appear to have any thing to do with my 'mother' keyboard (M-Audio Ozonic).
    Thanks for any insight into this issue
