EXS file limit?

2001-12-07 by Henrik Ahlgren

I have a SampleCell library that is quite vast (50Gb and >200.000 files). I
made aliases of it and put in the "Sampler Instruments" folder in the Logic
folder. It has worked fine until I added a couple of more files to the
library.

Now I can“t get any instruments to load into EXS24. The instruments get
converted from SC as usual, but then there is only the initial lines where
the name of the instrument should show up, and only the init sine wave is
sounding.

When I remove a couple of aliases it works fine again. It seems like there
is a limit of how many files EXS24 can keep track of. Is this a bug or a
feature? Mac OS related maybe? Is there a workaround?

Cheers / Henrik
