[EXS] Giga conversion file locations

2003-04-26 by Sean McCoy

While going through the procedure of converting the SAM Trombones library 
to EXS24 format on my Mac, I tried to find a way to force Logic to place 
the converted files on the drive I have designated for EXS samples. EXS 
creates a folder called "DLS-Giga Samples" within the Logic folder for this 
purpose, but since Logic resides on my System drive, which is my smallest 
drive, converting large libraries becomes a problem. I created an alias of 
the same name, pointed to a folder on the proper drive, but Logic still 
created a new folder for each conversion, filling up the system drive and 
forcing me to periodically move the files.  A minor annoyance, but there 
must be a way to re-direct EXS to a different location. Or is there? 
Nothing in the preferences or help files that I could find.

LAMP 5.5 (hope to install 6 this weekend)
OS 9.2.2
