EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

well poke me with a stick and call me silly...

OK, the solution was to set the Group "Voices" parametr to 1

strange that hitting the mono button on the plugin page doesn't 
accomplish this same thing, but hey...

Thanks for the help.....

Now if only you could show me how to achieve crossfading overlapping 
instead of switching velocity zones
