Re: [EXS] Unable To Play EXS24 Instruments Installed With EXS24(Logic 7.01)

2005-05-05 by arthur perkins

Hi,

When I select an instrument from the Factory or
Garageband folders, nothing happens. Yet if I select
an instrument from the external firewire drive, it
loads. I thought if I hit the limit(I think it's
10,000 exs instruments total, I could be wrong), that
no instruments could be loaded regardless of their
location.

The last time I ran EXSManager, it recorded over
13,000 instruments between the factory, garageband,
and the external drive. I hope Apple is working on
blowing away the limit for a future enhancement
because if that is the problem, it needs to be blown
away.

thanks,

Arthur
