For all the samples that you already have installed in "c:/program
files/emagic/logic audio/akai samples"
and that you try after to move manually in a new Directory, then the EXS24
will have to search again for the new location of all the samples you moved
(the location of the samples is automatically store in the corresponding
"exs" instrument file after detection).
To avoid to have to move manually your samples, you have first to create a
new folder "AKAI Samples" in the location/hard drive you want it to be
located.
Then, you have to create a Shortcut of it that you will rename exactly "AKAI
Samples" and that you will put in "c:/program files/emagic/logic audio/".
Don't forget to delete the original folder "c:/program files/emagic/logic
audio/akai samples" so that only the Shortcut is in there.
Now, each time you will convert an AKAI CD, the samples will be
automatically put in the folder that your "AKAI Samples" shortcut is
pointing at.

It's like a Shortcut on PC. And with these shortcuts, you can put your "AKAI
samples" fodler, your "exs24 instruments" folder or even your "VST plugins"
folder in any location/HD you want.
