EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Thanks, Julie. What you're saying fits with my initial understanding that
the EXS loads samples into RAM, but I hadn't realized that it does it
outside of the allocated RAM. I know one of the Logic reps, and I'm
surprised she never mentioned this to me. Now I know why she suggested
setting the program RAM so low. I guess having the 384MB of RAM has helped
more than I realized. Thanks again for the explanation
