EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Samples can be anywhere. Logic searches for them. that's what takes so darn long when 
you first open an instrument to play it. Logic is searching all the necessary paths for the 
samples. What takes so long at startup could be related to your "missing samples" 
problem.

I think there is a pref in EXS options, that you can change if sample searching should be on 
External, Local, or Both or something like that. You might try di**ing with that and seeing 
what happens.

Also if you have any instruments with samples in your autoload that might be what's 
taking so long. Especially with third party plug-ins like Kontakt, AU-VST conversions, and 
the old EXSP24 (the worst and slowest loader of all softsynths).
