Where is my sampler instrument ?

I used Logic 7 for ages. Now I´m using Logic X.
I tried open one of my Logic 7 songs and the box `... exs. file could not be found.´
The whole song is alright except the exs24 shows ´missing ...´ inst.
I tried to go through my old and new folders again and again.
Came to the conclusion that it must be because the sample was from the Logic7 factory samples...
YES - I have downloaded all the additional content in X.
Does the term ´Legacy´ in sampler inst. means ´older´ ?
In that case the legacy from Logic 7 is not anywhere.
How do I get these instruments back ? - I have more songs that need help with this problem
Is the old factory sounds available for download somewhere?
thanks a bunch!
<Title Edited by Host>

But have no idea what to make of it...seems I need jam-pack no12?
would be nice if someone did
There is no Jam pack No12...
The Mini Pulse A Poly Lead sound is found in EXS24's dropdown menu
Make sure you have turned on all the advanced tools in LPX's prefs > Advanced Tools...
Then create a software instrument track with the Open Library option unchecked
Now load an instance of ESX24 using the Instrument button in the Track strip
and navigate to the EXS Preset as shown in the first screenshot
Note: Corrected Screenshot now included for Mini Pulse A Poly!

  • Where can i find the sample instruments in logic pro x.the proper plugins

    Where can i find the sample instruments in logic pro x.the proper plugins. or third party plugins too where can i find them and how in logic pro x can anyone help me please.

    My understanding is that if it was purchased throught the App Store, then there is no requirement for a serial number. At which point does it ask you for the serial?

  • Where do I find  User Library Application Support Logic Sampler Instruments in Mountain Lion?

    I can't seem to find (User>Library>Application Support>Logic>Sampler Instruments in Mountain Lion)
    help please?

    Open Terminal in the Utilities folder. Paste the following at the prompt:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN.
    This will make the /Home/Library folder permanently visible so you can locate what you need.

  • Where can i find more information about factory sampler instruments? such as what synth was sampled, what chord has been sampled etc.

    im looking for more information about what chords have been sampled for use in the exs24 "chords" sampler instruments and more specifically wether they're major/minor and with 7ths,9ths,11ths etc.  i know this could be worked out with someone with the skill to do it but unforunately that's not me. It'd be convienient if information like this was included somewhere in the documentation like it is with most other commercial sample packs.

    Don't post order information or other personal information here. We're all just fellow users here - you are not communicating with Apple when you post here - and so posting such information just risks your privacy. I've asked the Hosts to remove all the private information from your post.
    The serial number was included in the box ARD came in; the Apple Store will not have a record of it. If you've lost the serial number, you'll need to purchase a new copy of ARD, probably a good idea anyway since 2.2 won't run on any version of Mac OS X since, if memory serves, 10.4. It's a lot cheaper through the Mac App Store than it was back when you first purchased.
    Regards.

  • Scanning Of Exs Sampler Instruments

    i don't remember if this function is still in logic but it would scan all my ext hardrives for samples for sampler instruments so it would then be able to find them faster. right now its showing i have multiple samples of certan instruments and want to get that a little more roganized
    thanks

    Completely unrelated question, but I had found a previous thread where you had converted an older Logic file for the Yamaha S90 synthesizer into a newer file that would work in Logic 8 but the link to that file is now broken. Any chance you could reconvert and repost?
    The original file link (in the older Logic format) is at http://files.keyfax.com/download/S90Object.LSO
    Thanks much in advance....

  • Sampler Instruments

    Hello,
    I am working on a friends computer trying to get all of his samples working in the EXS 24 other then the Logic Pro samples. All of the Aiff files where scattered in various folders on his various hard drives. So I organized all of them (Aiff files) in the EXS Sample folder. Then Put all the .EXS file in the Sampler Instruments folder. in folder catagories. But when I load the new .EXS files the sampler can't find the sample. Yet I can see the Aiff files. How can I correct this? Thanks In advance.

    If you have not done it yet, then it is a different topic - since your EXS files don't exist ( yet ).
    All you really need to do is decide exactly how you want your library in the filesystem - map, save EXS, save PM data at the end of the day. Leave your sampler, REX, EXS files where they are after they are mapped. If you don't move or modify them ( may want to allow yourself read only privs ) then you should have virtually no problems like relink, slow load times...
    All your samples and insts go into your home folder ( /Users/~you~/Lib/AppSupport/Logic ) unless you need to outsmart Logic ( samples are easy to reference from another Volume ) - I just have mine linked from several different accounts - a pain for most users.
    Then, you will not likely have to move things around or spend hours with Project Manager. Logic will keep it's samples apart from yours and Migrating is pretty easy. : ^)

  • Sampler Instruments Folder in Root or User to put additional exs files

    is it best to keep all sampler instruments in Root folder? i notice thats where it installs the origional ex samples and instruments. but i have converted giga and akai as well as other exs sample instruments i made. is it ok to put them all in the root or are they supposed to go in User/ sampler instruments or does it matter?
    thanks

    You can put them anywhere, as long as there are *identically named aliases* of the containing folders in either the root or the Users folder.
    Logic puts 'Convertees' by default in the Users folder, I believe.
    Whether it is best I cannot tell you, that depends on your use. If you use lots of EXS instruments in a project it may be advantageous to have all sound content on a a dedicated disk, to avoid too much traffic to and from the Startup volume, possibly leading to Logic reacting sluggishly.
    regards, Erik.

  • List of EXS24 sampled instruments

    Hi, does anyone know where I can get a list of the EXS24 sampler instruments (more than 1000) for LE 9 ? Also, is the EXS24 GM compatible yet for easy identification and selection of instruments for imported midi files? Thanks.

    As far as the Jam Packs go, you can download the manuals from the support area. There are thousands of sounds and loops with Logic Studio. Many are searchable by Spotlight. Just have fun exploring.

  • Default location of EXS24 sample files (not Sample Instruments)

    I'm trying to copy a few selected EXS24 Sample Instruments (orchestral strings) from one Mac to another.
    I know where the Sample Instruments are, but can't find the associated sample files.
    Any idea where they are?
    Thanks!

    You can move them from teh default location to wherever you want.
    Drag the iTunes folder from C:\Users\<username>\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music to
    C:\Users\<username>\iTunes\iTunes Music.
    Hold Shift and laucch iTunes then select *Choose existing library* and select the *iTunes library file* in the iTunes folder.

  • Sample instruments folder driving me nuts

    I'll apologize in advance, but I've checked up and down here and seem to have missed it, but everytime I try to put anything into the sample instruments folder, it won't go. I understand the differences between samples and files and all the rest, it's just a problem getting the actual information into the sample instruments folder. Is there something I need to turn off in order to load my samples? Thanks for the help...

    You may be trying to put your samples in the systems drives library, which by default, is locked.
    I believe it's Apple's intention for you to add your own samples to the user(~)>Library>Application Support>Logic>Sampler Instruments folder.
    But beyond that, that's really where the .exs files should reside, and the samples themselves should be in another location, other than the sampler instruments folder. Having the samples themselves in there, will severely slow down the time it takes Logic to launch, and that will get slower the more samples you add in there, because Logic scans that folder on start up.

  • Where to put Samples for EXS24mkII?

    I have collected about 40 CD's which came with Music Tech magazine which contain free samples.
    I have never used EXS24mkII Sampler before and was just wondering which folder I should put these samples from the CD's into?
    Thanks.

    EXS patches are made up from the raw sample data and an "EXS" file
    It doesn't matter where the raw samples are, as long as they're on a hard drive, EXS will find them when you load the patch...
    What IS important though, is that your ".EXS" files (or an alias) are in the "sampler instruments" folder:
    Users/"your folder"/library/application support/logic/sampler instruments.
    What I did, was to catorgorise the raw samples into type i.e. Bass, Strings, Brass etc, put them into seperate folders, then do the same with the ".EXS" files... Put all the .EXS folders into ONE folder, and made an alias to the sampler instruments location.
    That way, you get a nice catorgorised drop-down menu from the plug-in - much easiser to find what you're looking for.
    Hope this helps.

  • Sample instruments

    First of all, what are sample instruments and secondly, where do I find them? There are instruments in some of the GarageBand Demo tunes that I would like to use to compose my own stuff, but I can't seem to access them (Celtic harp, for instance - or Tin Whistle).
    thanks,
    dave

    unlock the instrument and delete the recorded MIDI
    at which demo song are you looking? none of mine have any locked tracks.
    however my question is somewhat moot. if you can play the instrument, then just save the instrument under the name you wish to use, and you can select it, like any other MIDI preset, for any project you wish.

  • Assign Samples from Sample Instrument to Mac Keyboard Keys?

    I do a little freelance composition for commercial uses, entertainment trailers, games -- in other words, no performance at all, usually SFX or electronica-esque tracks 30 - 60 seconds in length. I've long been doing the work on dedicated digital equipment -- mixers, Korg pads and a sampler, couple small synths, a hardware sequencer, multitrack recorder, an old Drumulator (which stays, by the way; actually all of it I'll probably use here and there) -- and I've evaluated DAWs in the past, generally deciding I'd just be trading one set of complexities for another. But with after looking at Logic Pro Studio (LP 8), I can no longer make that argument.
    I have a new Mac well up to the task, so I've finally decided to buy in. My wife will be thrilled (Where did all the STUFF go?) For the kind of work I do, I can't, not this early into it, reasonably justify buying a high-end control surface to expedite what I can do with a mouse and keyboard.
    What I am concerned about though is needing something like one of these Akai multi-bank "drum pad" interfaces for triggering samples. I have a small keyboard with USB controller interface for parts I really need to play -- piano being my traditional instrument background. I know in GarageBand with sound effects sampled "instruments", like "radio sounds" for example, you can assign different effects to different Mac keyboard keys, hit and hold the A key for a certain sampled effect, hold it for the full sample, or release the key to cut it mid-sample, repeatedly tap for a stutter, etc., pretty much any of the basics you can do with a pad-triggered sample on a dedicated sampler, or with a pad interface to a DAW.
    Can Logic do this? I'm assuming since GB samples instruments use the EXS format of Logic, and you can create GB sampled instruments in Logic, there's no problem assigning different sample files to different notes in Logic's inbuilt sample. I just don't to use the the USB-interface keyboard to play them, as I often will need to keep it free for some improvisational noodling with a synth instrument or what have you, yet still need to improv triggering the samples, too. Rather than go back and drop the samples in after recording, say, a live synth over a drum sequence. Since I don't do any live performance outside a studio environment, there's tolerance for going back and making adjustments, or re-recording.
    On the one hand, I already have far too much equipment and would rather skip the pad-trigger interface if I can. On the other hand, in switching to Logic, I don't want to entirely eliminate all improv play, layering the whole thing together with a Mac keyboard and mouse, like building a Lego model kit. I mean, I can, as what I do on dedicated equipment is far more like programming a computer than actually performing live music, but having a background in piano performance, I still like a little spontaneity to creep in while composing.

    Hey, thanks for saving me a few hundred bucks. If it turns out I'm not comfortable with it, I can always backtrack and buy a good pad trigger/control interface. But the idea is to streamline as much as possible into the Mac and Logic, make most of the dedicated gear optional rather than required. All my friends who use Logic Studio are in large-scale and/or expensively outfitted production studio environments; when I go play around, I sort of get lost tinkering with all that wild gear and forget my checklist. I called a couple of guys about this particular question and from both I got, "I have no idea, man. We use control surfaces for everything." So your answer was especially helpful.

  • I just upgraded to Lion and can't find my EXS24 sampler instruments

    The instruments that came with Logic are still in their place, but can't find user sampler instruments.  It used to be (user / library / application support / logic / sampler instruments, but there is no "library" folder in the user folder anymore.  Any suggestions?

    Jericho...
    The User/Library folder is now hidden in Lion. To get to the "user" Library folder you now have to access it from Finder>Go>Go To Folder.
    Once there, type this: /users/(your administrator name here)/Library/
    Hope this helps...
    I've been working in Lion just fine until tonight! I lost my EXS24II sampler Instruments too... but probably for another reason?  -- Andy
