Ah, but a regular on the vanilla logic list if my memory serves... Sorry I
just remember your name as it reminds me of Amon Tobin who I've got some
tracks off on a Ninja Tune compilation! :-)

Just the yahoogroups homepage AFAIK.

You can't do it automagically unfortunately - only the .exs files get put in
the named dir during conversion. What I do is to clear the Akai Samples
folder before conversion, then copy all converted aiff's into a new subdir
where all the .exs files live that I name "aiff samples".  This encapsulates
the definitions and samples in one manageable tree. This works fine. Oh, and
I make sure that the AKAI samples folder is in fact an alias to a directory
on my audio drive so that I dont have to move the converted samples between
drives after conversion!

As for your other questions, you may find some answers at :
  http://www.pev.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/
Where I've been accumulating some EXS/logic FAQ stuff. If not, let me know
off the list and I'll see if I have your answers in the stuff I've collated
but not added yet.... Its still a very early version so any feedback is
appreciated....

HTH,
