Problems with Sample Cell File Conversion

2004-02-17 by jltfour

Emagic literature says that EXS will play Sample Cell files, but 
the mappings that result from opening a Sample Cell bank file in 
EXS are far from acceptable. Discovering this, I purchased 
Translator from Chicken Systems. For the past month I have 
been back and forth with support there, and they've been very 
helpful. They even sent me a beta version of their latest 
Translator build. Unfortunately, even with the beta, I have yet to 
translate a bank that opens in EXS on my desktop as it does in 
Sample Cell.
I 've sent stuffed files that I have translated to Chicken Systems, 
and they tell me they are able to open the files on their desktop in 
EXS.
I'm brand new to EXS, and Logic so I 'm probably overlooking 
something. My questions: What would cause the translated files
to not see midi input at all on my desktop?  All other EXS files 
open and play as they should, and all other EXS files show midi 
input on the keyboard in the edit window. The mappings in the 
edit window of the translated files are correct, and the names of 
the samples are all correct. The velocity switchings are all 
correct. I have the ESB TDM bridge, but am opening EXS on the 
DTDM side.
Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
