Problem with Giga format samples for Logic/EXS Part 2

2002-12-27 by steinway03 <ltarof@rogers.com>

Thanks to everyone who replied to my previous post.  These were helpful 
suggestions.

After an elaborate and convoluted path, I have now managed to 
successfully install a large Giga format file (Steinway B from 
Soundsonline) on a PC disk with self-extracting executable onto my Mac, 
and into EXS24.  I can indeed see the 528 individual .wav files 
totalling 889 MB or so.

The last link: when I launch Logic 5.5.0 and try to play the sample, I 
get a message that there is not enough memory.  Even after 
significantly increasing the memory (256 MB assigned), checking off 
"larger disk buffer" and "more friendly disk read handling", I still 
get told there's not enough memory.  I imagine the hard disk streaming 
feature of EXS24 is not working.

Does anyone know what to correct (other settings, maybe?) are or are 
there other tips?

Cheers,
Larry

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
