you buy Mainstage at the app store for about $30, and you get _all_ the jam packs at no extra cost

    This JamPack is no longer sold separately by Apple. You could search for the boxed retail version of the JamPack at eBay or Amazon.
    But it is much more economic to install MainStage 3 instead. You can buy it at the Mac App Store. MainStage 3 will install all five JamPacks for a price much less than the price of a single JamPack used to be. Afterwards the JamPacks will work with Logic and GarageBAnd as well.
    Just launch MainStage after installing and use the command "MainStage > Download additional content" and select the JamPacks you want to install.

  • How do I get Jam Pack instruments to appear in Garageband 11?

    I recently got a new MacBook Pro, purchased Logic Pro X, and downloaded the additional content which includes all the Jam Packs.  I got the loops into Garageband by finding the folders and dropping them into the loop browser.  However, I'm not sure how to get the Jam Pack instruments into Garageband.  I've read about copying from one folder to another and then re-indexing, but I don't know which folders or how to reindex.  I've spent hours trying to find the answer. I would very much appreciate your assistance!

    GarageBand expects all instruments in the Instruments Library at  
    /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library
    The Logic instruments are installed in the corresponding location
    /Library/Application Support/Logic/Patches/
    /Library/Application%20Support/Logic/Sampler%20Instruments/

  • Can I get Jam Packs for GarageBand '11 on Snow Leopard?

    I have GarageBand '11 (v 6.0.5) on a MacBook 2 with Snow Leopard, and I would like to add Jam Packs.  I know I can get them all if I buy MainStage and download them.  Unfortunately MainStage is now in version 3.3, which does not run on Snow Leopard.  And version 2, which does run on Snow Leopard, is no longer available. (Not supported, I understand.  Not available for sale to willing owners of older equipment I don't understand.  But I digress.)
    I have a Mac Mini which I can upgrade to Mountain Lion, and get MainStage.  Can I then move the Jam Packs from the Mini to the MacBook?
    Thanks!

    When you say you had to "run" MainStage 2 once - what does run mean? Did you have to open it or do anything else to run it?
    I only launched it to be able to access the main menu bar and open the download panel.
    I still downloaded these individual instruments but they do not appear in my Garageband loops or anywhere else on my iMac.
    Have you rebooted the system after installing the additional content?
    You should see additional instruments and loops in the system library  (Your Macintosh HD > Library). Have you checked the following folders:
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/ (for the loops)
    and
    /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/
    /Library/Application Support/Logic/Sampler Instruments/
    Perhaps you need to rebuild the Lopp Index, if you find the loops somewhere and they do not show in GarageBand:  Rebuilding the Loop Index in GarageBand
    Silly question, but you have checked, if no filters are set in the Inspector, right? The top of the Info Panel  should be showing "Show all" and the search filed be empty.

  • Hi, where can I buy jam packs?

    Hi, where can I buy and download jam packs?

    How do you instal these into Garageband if you buy Mainstage??
    Simply download MainStage, run the installer, and launch MainStage. Select to download all additional content, to complete the installation.
    Afterwards you should be able to use all loops and instruments in GarageBand, without any additional setup, since MainStage installs the contents in the system Library exactly where GarageBand expects it to be.

  • Where are the Jam Packs located in lp8

    hey guys

    There is two types of Jam Pack content.
    - Loop content (Apple loops, audio or MIDI)
    - Instrument content (sampler instrument files, raw samples)

  • Jam Pack Help

    My computer finally died on me so I decided to get a new imac today. Bad news is that I am about ready to throw it through a window because even though I had the Jam Packs backed up on an external hard drive, I am having several issues. I can see that I have the .aif files now onto my new computer from a couple of the jam packs, and I've even moved those files over to the apple loops folder where all the rest of the pre loaded loops are, yet they do not show up as usable in Garageband, nor do I see any of the virtual instruments. I'm also getting the issue I've seen others have where some of the jam packs are not compatible w/ Lion. I saw there is a work around, but the problem is that I do not have the original discs and only have the files from my external hard drive and am getting the "you can't open the application packagebuddy because power pc applications are no longer supported" message. So this is causing me a lot of **** because I've transfered over some .band files from my hard drive, but without the same loops and software instruments I used before, my projects are a mess.  Any ideas?  I also saw something about an app called Main Stage that supposedly has all the Jam Pack content. Is this true?

    That is true. If you buy MainStage 2, it will install all of the JamPacks, and you will be able to use the loops and instruments from Logic and GarageBand. An the price of MainStage is much less than the price for one single of the JamPack - in Europe 23,99 €, that is roughly 30 $US.
    To buy MainStage would be the easiest solution.
    To restore the older JamPacks from your backup, you need to
    install the loops in /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/Apple Loops for GarageBand/
    and the instruments in /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/
    Also you need to reindex your Loops, see: Rebuilding the Loop Index in GarageBand

  • Jam pack strings poor sound

    Hello,
    2 questions.
    1) Why is it that when I assign the JamPack violin sound to a track another track with the same name appears in the list? I seem to remember reading some where that some of these sounds are stereo and require two tracks though it seems to make no difference to the sound if I delete one of the two.
    2) The sound itself is lacking depth and is scratchy. I find it hard to believe that this is the sound that the engineers intended. It seems like I'm only getting part of the sound. It's the same with all the string sounds. Can this be so?
    Thanks, Julian

    Ah, I see you are on 7. It may well be different. Anyway, I've just installed "Jam Pack Symphony Orchestra" myself, & obviously I'm not getting this behaviour, although that isn't surprising given the differences.
    I need to know exactly +how & where+ you installed your Jam Pack constituent parts, since this is a very well-known bone of contention. If everything just went where the installer suggested it should go, then that's not the issue (although it means your boot drive now has loads of 'stuff' on it).
    However, if you made different choices, or moved stuff yourself, then I suggest you read this discussion (especially towards the end) & then get back: [Make Room!|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2026399&tstart=0]
    You should also know that installing Jam Packs can result in previously-installed material being deleted. There's a warning about that in the installer Read-Me.

  • Loading Jam Packs on Macbook Air without CD drive

    Since my Macbook Air (with Lion) doesn't have a cd drive, I recreated the Jam Pack directories in my Macbook Air exactly as they appear on my iMac (with Lion), and copied and pasted the Jam Pack folders/files from my iMac to my MacBook Air using an external hard drive to do the transfer.  Here is where I put the Jam Pack folders/files on my MacBook Air:
    Jam Pack - 4 Symphony Orchestra and Jam Pack World Music:
    Library>Audio>Apple Loops>Apple> (for the Jam Pack sounds)
    Library>Audio>>Apple Loops Index> (for the Index files)
    Jam Packs 2 and 3:
    Library>Application Support>Garage Band>Apple Loops (for the Jam Pack sounds)
    Library>Application Support>Garage Band>Apple Loops Index (for the Index files)
    However, when I fire up Garage Band, it still doesn't see the Jam Packs.  Can anyone tell me why, and what I might do about it?
    Thanks,
    tkaba

    You also do need the Instruments Library; otherwise the instruments to play the loops will be missing:
    The Instruments Library is located in
    /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/
    Ssee what else from  /Library/Application Support/GarageBand you may need, also from the corresponding files in your user library.
    To reindex your loops properly, reveal the Library>Application Support>Garage Band>Apple Loops files in the Finder, launch GarageBand,  and drag the loops  into your GarageBand Window, directly onto the Lopp Browser. Do that for all Loop Folders in your User Library.

  • How do I get the Jam Pack instruments downloaded from mainstage 3 to show up in Garageband '11?

    I downloaded and installed Mainstage 3 to be able to download the jam pack instruments and loops that come with it and use them in Garageband '11. I read that I can use the software instruments in the program, however none of the jam packs I downloaded show up in the list of software instruments in Garageband.
    I clicked on the menu which tells me if I want to display 'Garageband','my settings' or 'All' of the instruments, but no 'Jam Pack' option shows up.
    how do I get the jam pack instruments to show up in Garageband? I want to know how you import the instruments in the program.

    It looks like nobody here is already using Mainstage 3 with GarageBand, since there is no need to upgrade from mainstage 2 while it is still working. What you are reading here on Mainstage, JamPacks, and GB has been tested with Mainstage 2 but not 3.
    Did you download all contents for Mainstage? WIth Mainstage 2 the JamPAcks were part of a separate download. Launch Mainstage 3, and check, if there is a menu entry somewhere that will let you download additional contents. If you do not see any JamPacks directly, they may be bundled with "Logic" or "Legacy" items.
    In Mainstage 2 it looks like this. Your version probably has a different panel.
    Once everything has been installed, reboot.

  • Getting a file not found error with jam pack instruments

    Since Logic Express no longer works with the current Mac OS X versions, I'm trying to get used to using GarageBand again while I save up to buy the full Logic Package.  I had purchased all of the jam packs years ago and recently also purchased Main Stage.  Now, when I go to use, for example, an instrument from the Orchestral jam pack, I get a message saying "EXS24 instrument “Cellos.exs”: Audio file “VC-L_legato_f_C2.wav” not found!" with the option to continue or search again.  Clicking "search again" always ends up with the same message.  This is driving me nuts!  Pretty ****** off right now that I can't use what I paid money for.  Isn't this stuff supposed to "just work"?  Or did that die with Steve Jobs?

    same Problem: Working with OS X 10.6.8 on a MacBookPro Santa Rosa and Logic Pro: Its not possible to use the cello.exs 'cos missing audio file “VC-L_legato_f_C2.wav”, same problem with Basses.exs (missing KB-L_legato_f_A#1.wav) and the  Piano. All this broken Instruments are from the Jam pack Orchestra Library.

  • Where can I get WLExpress 6.1 Service Pack 2 or a trial version of same?

    Where can I get WebLogic Express 6.1 with Service Pack 2 or a trial version of same?

    Since Adobe removes old trial versions as soon as a new version is released, you will not find anything official from Adobe
    Anything else you do find is not to be trusted, since it may be a pirate, hacked version containing malware
    When you talk about "old files" are you talking about PROJECT files, or movie files?
    If movie files, such as an AVI, they should be universal... as long as you did not use a proprietary codec such as came with that era's capture cards (I have a Pinnacle Dv500 card that I used with Premiere 6, and until Pinnacle changed their software with a later update, the early AVI files I created would work ONLY with the Dv500)
    So... which is it... project file or data file?
