Soundfont samples and folder locations

I've noticed that when importing Soundfont folders, Logic creates the necessary EXS files in HD/Application Support/Logic/Sampler Instruments -- which is where the source SF2 files are kept.
However, it also creates a separate 'Soundfont Samples' folder with the original .wav files extracted, but puts it in a different directory -
User/Application Support/Logic/Soundfont Samples
Anyone know why it does this? Why doesn't it put this folder together in the 'main' directory on the HD with everything else (ie - in one place), and instead places this folder in my user account directory? Is there a setting someplace to change this?
Thanks!

ha! they still have a couple of my own FLAs in that zip file

Sample and sample instrument folder

hi all,
I'm asking some basic question, but wish can get some help!!!
First, i want to move all the jam pack to an external audio disk. i understand logic can locate automatic when i drag the loops in loops browser.
But my main question is how about the sample and instrument folder? Should keep in computer harddisk? Or any good teach?
Second, About song setting question.
In my case, i basiclly only work with my powerbook. So do i need select this "copy EXS instruments to project folder" in Preference? Or if i want backup song as seperate file, then i should select it?
Many thanks....

The samples themselves, can reside anywhere. The .exs instrument files however, must remain in either the ~user>Library>Application support>Logic>Sampler Instruments folder, or the System Drive>Library>Application support>Logic>Sampler Instruments folder. Or at least an alias must reside there.
These are the 2 places the EXS will look for it's instruments. It will also look in the song folder, and see if there is a "Sampler Instruments" folder there as well. Which deals with your second question...
If you have a "Core" library... meaning you use the same sounds, from the same libraries, and never really alter them or change them from song to song, then it doesn't necessarily make sense to enable the "copy EXS" check box.
But if you have heavily edited an .exs instrument for a specific song, or have made a new EXS instrument specifically for a song, then I think it makes sense to do that.
And as far as archiving a song, once it's finished, it's probably a good idea to enable that box as well. Even if you think you'll always have a sample set around on your hard drive(s). A lot can change in your set up in a year or two's time. Better safe than sorry...

I just installed iTunes on my computer, where I already have all my music. I went to Edit Preferences Advanced, and changed the iTunes Media Folder Location to where I have all my music, in the "Local Disk." But iTunes wont import all my music. Help?

Have you looked in the Music App on your iPhone? On the iPhone music is played by the Music App not iTunes.

How do I change the iTunes media folder Location and save it?

I have a seagate drive where I store my music and have it shared as "M". Each time iTunes starts up, it defaults back to C:\...... and if there is a device connnected, it transfers the purchases from that device to this directory.
I need to manually go in and change the location each time iTunes starts. Is there a way to save this location as the default? I am on Version 10.
thanks in advance

If iTunes starts up and it can't get access to the location that you have declared as the media folder it will revert to the default subfolder of the library folder. Any downloads or rips will be put in that location until you correct the media folder location via Edit > Preferences > Advanced.
Either make absolutely certain the drive is active and available before starting iTunes or place the library folder on the other drive as well (see this post) so that iTunes either opens normally or warns that it cannot find the library. Note if this is a networked drive rather than locally connected USB/SATA there may be noticeable performance issues with the latter solution.

I moved iTunes folder location, now all my personal song ratings and playlists are gone. How can I get them back? All the iTunes files are intact, just in a new location. Running iTunes 11.1.5.5

Put everything back the way it was.
Them move the folder correctly.

I joined iTunes Match on my MBP and added our MBA to the same Match account. What should the iTunes Media Folder Location be for iTunes on the MBA?

The iTunes libraries on both machines appear to be in sync, though I don't know if Home Sharing or iTunes Match is to thank for the consistency. But the iTunes Media Folder locations are different on the MBP and MBA, and I don't know if they should point to the same storage location (it's been on a drive connected to our Airport for years). I also don't know what options for Copying Files and Keeping iTunes Organized should be on the MBA. I certainly don't want the media files duplicated yet the devices sharing a cloud version.
I hoped the MBA would act like an iOS device using iTunes Match in that music would stream unless downloaded. Then downloaded music would have to be managed (deleted from the MBA's iTunes) for space reasons at some regular intervals-- just like we now do on the iPhones and iPad. The library entry for the song would remain... just the locally stored file would be deleted and the iCloud download would change back to the download symbol.
But if a purchase is made from the iTunes store on the MBA, the file is stored on the local MBA machine as well as the external drive because the MBP receives the song via Home Sharing and downloads the file.

Each iTunes client will expect a discrete iTunes library location. The iTunes Match service will allow the libraries to be automatically synchronised along with any IOS devices that are also registered for iTunes Match.
Following making a secure backup for any given library it is possible, once Songs have been 'matched' or 'uploaded' to remove the local copies and play the Songs from the Cloud. The behaviour on IOS devices is different, they will download each Song as it is played.
Note: Apple is very clear that the responsibility for maintaining music files remains with the user - so it remains essential to ensure that you have your own Songs secure backed up prior to relying on the Cloud. Should there be an issue with the Cloud resulting in loss of Songs you will need your own secure backup.

Itunes folder location is correct but music and books pointing to time machine

hi, i was hoping someone could help with an itunes 10.6.3 issue i have. i am using an imac with OS X 10.5.8. when i open itunes preference, the itunes media folder location is correct. however, when i look at a song or book info, it is pointing to a time machine backup location. i believe this is preventing me from listening to any music on my imac and preventing the music and books to sync with to my iphone. thanks.

Okay, thats weird.
Try to consolidate your media.

also, in the iTunes music folder, go inside to manually check if the songs are there.

Multiple Libraries and Music Folder Locations

I'm stumped.
I keep three libraries on my MacBook Pro. The folder structure for where the library and xml files live is basically:
~\Music\iTunes\ATV
~\Music\iTunes\Pete
~\Music\iTunes\Jen
Each library is associated with its own Music Folder, on an external hard drive, like so:
External\Contents\Main
External\Contents\PJP
External\Contents\JLP
I have iTunes manage the music files, keep things organized, and copy songs into the Music Folder.
When I open the "Pete" library, for example (by holding down Option when I click on iTunes in the Dock), it opens fine. I do what I need to do there, and quit iTunes. Now, somewhat suddenly, when I open the "Jen" library next (again by holding down Option while launching iTunes to select that library file), the location of the Music Folder in Preferences->Advanced has been changed to the location of the last library's Music Folder. In other words, the library should be pointing to \Contents\JLP, but instead is pointing to \Contents\PJP.
I can change the location of the Music Folder (a fairly long process), but the next time I open up a different library, the Music Folder location is similarly incorrect.
I imagine I'm just tired and overlooking a fairly easy fix/cause of this behavior, but it escapes me and I'll be grateful for your help.
Cheers.

I have noticed this happen when the computer temporarily loses a link to the external drive it reverts to the locally stored music folder but reverts to the external drive when it is available again. Don't know if a similar issue is what is happening here if so it may be something to do with the refresh rate at which your computer communicates with the external drive.

Scheduled pickup and email of File from folder location

Hi,
I have a scenario where we need to pick up a file from a folder location on a particular date of a month and send it via email to an email id.
For this, we have planned a design where I have a SQL receive adapter which will poll a table in SQL and return a boolean value indicating that the file is
to be sent on the particular date. This instantiates an orchestration if the boolean returned is true.
once the orchestration instance is created, in the next steps, I am trying to receive the file from a folder location. I am getting a build error here. Mentioning "you must specify at least one already-initialized correlation set for a non-activation receive
that is on a non-selfcorrelating port".
Can you please suggest how I can correlate on these locations.
Regards,
Ujjwal
-Ujjwal

Ok got,
If my understanding is correct, you have an orchestration with two receive shapes. First receive shape is for
SQL to receive the trigger message and in second Receive shape you expect to receive the message from Folder (file location)
since you have two receive location in your Orchestration you have a convoy and you have set correlation for your Receive shapes. Initialize the correlation set
in first Receive shape and follow the correlation set in another Receive shape.
But for your requirement, even when the flow of your Orchestration moves to the second Receive shape (which is configured to
file location) it not going to pull/receive the file into your Orchestration as you expect.
As said, read the
schedule task adapter and use to trigger the file receive process on particular date of a month and have send
port with filter for the Receive port name (which has Receive location with schedule task adapter) and configure this send port to send email.

Get back Shared Workspace Pages and Sample content folder

Hi,
We deleted Shared Workspace pages and Sample content folder in Workspace, due to client's insistence. Now they want it back, as they liked the earlier view better.
Is there a way to get these folders back? Any help will be appreciated.

Did you delete them delete them or simply remove them from the user preferences
To figure that out go to Explore and then select View from your drop down and select "Show hidden"
You should see a folder called "Shared Workspace Pages". If you see it and Inside you have Homepage then you haven't truely nuked it and add it back through preferences.
If you totally nuked it. Then someone else might have the trick for adding it back but if you have a server I would nose around in (for 11.1.1.3 and different depending on which version you are using) to see if you can see the files in question.

New computer at work and all my song are on the server-when I try to change the folder location under preferences to the server, it still won't show my songs in Itunes?? please help!

Howdy carpetjim,
When you change the folder location like that, it changes where new songs and media are stored. To actually load the library you need to do this:
Steps to create or choose a different iTunes Library file
If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
If you are using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Start menu and choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
If you are using the Mac, open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option key.
You should see one of the following screens:
Additional information
If you do not see one of the screens above, then you did not hold the correct key at the correct time. You may want to try again. Note that if you pinned iTunes to the Start menu programs, and open it that way, it may not work.

2. Select the compatibility tab.
3. Set compatibility mode to Windows 7 and click apply.
4. Open iTunes, sign into iTunes store, Turn on iTunes Match, Add your computer.

Samples and tutorials folder

Guys,
Is it possible to download the samples and tutorials folder
that came with Flash 8 anywhere. I've picked up some literature
that refers to this folder but it doesn't look like it comes with
CS3. As a new user to Flash, this leaves me in a hard place.
Can anyone help at all?
Cheers,
Seif

Location of old LH samples and examples

Where were samples and examples from the old LH support site moved within the SAP support site ? If so what is the path to get there and are there any special authorziations required ?

I have tried the search you suggested but with no real answers. I also submitted a message to support. The reply:
The samples that were up on the LH support site are still there and you
should be able to access them till the end of the year. Your login
and password are your License # and password is 4 digit Support Agreeme
nt number. This is true unless you changed them.
After the end of the year the Lighthammer site will be gone and we have
been entering how to guides on SAP's SDN site but all the old examples
will not be migrated over.
Regards,
Erik
