My loop browser is playing loops that arent on the Hard drive!??!???!

Question

I have 60's shuffle drummer 01 02 03 etc that i threw out a long time ago. I just repaired perms, repaired disk. Now
i have these loops in the browser and they play
but i do not ( ive looked everywhere ) have them on my computer's HD. Isnt it absolute that what is played in the browser must be on the HD somewhere?
This is the strangest thing that has happened?
any clues?
any???

Answer 1

thanks so much... for your time and expertise.
1-I want to organize the loop browser so that if i want lets say only electric guitar solo loops or just drum fill loops I could bring all those up in the browser where it says show all ( in the very left column) and they would appear in the same amount ( minus those in 3/4 or 6/8) as they are in the subfolder in the Apple loops HD folder. Thats the first concern i have.
2-i am not really really sure that every loop i have in my HD (lib>audio>apple loops folder is actually listed in the loop browser. I bought several different third party loops and some have odd names and so forth all in all i must have 6 thousand loops or more...Id like to make sure that they are all indexed properly. Id like to start from scratch. So as not to get duplicate problems etc etc. I would feed the route Hard drive initially free of any loops from an external HD with the loops and re drag the loops in their respective folders onto the HD and then the browser and reindex them so that im sure im doing it right.
thats the goal. I would ofcourse trash the index document before i do this.
I understand with prefs unchecked (no filter) the only loops that wont be showing will be those with different time signatures.
Now, in my newly made HD loop folder ill have subfolders with loops for electric guitars, acoustic guitars, drum kits, drum fills, etc. etc
What im asking therefore is if i have subfolders with more specific loops in them is it just a matter of dragging each sub folder over the browser and when i go to the browser to search them, I would simply have to click on the very left column where it gives you the options show all etc..
and i should see the loops in each of these subfolders (minus the different time signature loops) as they are on the Hard Drive?
i found that Jam Pack 4 orchestral is only loadable if you do it in small amounts. It will not take the whole folder and index. ( thats my experience ).
So are these feats possible and can i do them the way ive stated it so far?
now the catch and the problem im having here is that the loops have been assigned different instruments genres that conflict with what i would like. I am not going to go in and change all of them to suit me in APPLE SOUND UTILITY.
i just want to know they are all indexed and that i can grab them with the above method. do let me know
i thank you so much.
