The problem is probably simply that the keynote of the original sample is not
the one that the EXS24 (or you) has assigned to it. 

I checked the OBXA bass instrument I built:
Assign the note A1 to the sample named A2
Assign the note A2 to the sample named A3 
leave the assignments on the E1 and E2 samples according to the names. 

That should fix the problem -- but there is one more gotcha on that site in
some sample sets -- read on. 

If in doubt abou the tuning of a sample use a guitar/chromatic tunerand play
the note on the keyboard and test the sound coming out of your speakers for
correct pitch. You can use the demo of CoolEdit 2000 if you are on a PC
(www.syntrillium.com) to ascertain the tuning of the note. The other possiblity
if it is not a whole note wrong is that there is a problems with the samples
rates. 

Some samples I got from there were marked as being 44.1kHz but were pitch
shifted an odd amount away from the labelled notes -- I had to change the
nominal sample rate from to 48kHz (Sound Forge, Cool Edit, Wavelab -- perhaps
even Logic's sample editor could do this). It is worth checking that the sample
rate of all samples is the same.
