I recently reloaded my computer, so I copied my created sampler instruments onto an external harddrive. I have now reloaded tose instruments back onto my local drive. When I try to load up those instruments on the ESX24, it can not find the load path, yet somehow all those instruments shows up in the menu. If I turn my external hardrive on, then it will load up those instruments. I already clicked the option button and selected preferences on the EXS24. The search samples on option was correct. So the best option would be to open up the project manager window and scan paths, which is what was discuss in the ESX24 video tutorial, but when I click on windows option, the project manager window does not exist, along with couple of other windows which I noticed are no longer present I guess for Logic 8. I used option-K to look for shortcuts to that window, but could not find one. This is telling me that I can't change my sample loading path ever, which is not good. How do i fix this situation? What happens if I don't have that external harddrive anymore? Then what?

I haven't written in a while because I had my external hard drives connected, so the EXS24 was pulling the sounds from there. But I disconnnected my external hard drives and now I can't find them. Now I can't use my constructed EXS24 instruments, eventhough they are in the right location, "Library/Application Support/Logic/Sampler Instruments." When I try to load them, it gives a message stating that it can't find my sounds so it gives an option to either continue or search again. I tried that prefference thing in the ESX24 by changing it to all volumes, but that didn't work, and of course I can find them using spot light, which I think is the space you use to type in the search in the finder window. Why is this happening?

I don't understand. When I cleaned out my computer, I decided to drag the folder where my constructed EXS24 were at to my external hardrive so they wouldn't get erased. Then after cleaning out my computer, I put that folder back where it should be. When I start up logic, all those sounds exist within the EXS24 menu, but the retreaval path leads to my external hard drive. Like right now, I don't have my external hard drive connect, when I go to the sound menu, I see all of my sounds listed that are located in the folder. if what you are saying is true about the file versus wave file theory, then I wouldn't be able to use the sounds in the first place when I'm connected to my external hard drive.

I figured it out. I understand what you were talking about now.

I have to have more of this TNT stuff.

I have a problem with a project I haven't worked on in about a month. When trigger sound with my midi controller, there a delay in the signal. i don't know why that has started. I tried getting rid of all the plugins and that didn't work. I don't why I would have to do that because I have delay compensation selected, but I tried it anyway. I tried re-saving the project using a different name and also say a copy on two different external hard drives and on my computer, but i I still can't get any results. The beat that i want to work is not finished, and right now a can't get a good feel with a rhythm because of the signal being delayed. what can i do?

The lowering of the I/O setting did not work, plus it was set low to begin with. I don't know why I would have to do that because compensation is always set to all.

This is only happening for this project alone, no other project, I just noticed something very important. While I listened to the playback, I noticed the marker line thing that scrolls along as you listen to the beat was further ahead of what I was actualing hearing. I would say about 1/4 of a second ahead. I've had this problem with two other projects in the past and I was never able to fix this problem, so I had to scrap the whole project which I don't want to do because i really like this beat.

I did not use that plugin

So how I zip it up and send it to you?
