EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

I've seen some discussion about how exs is "way behind" and as someone coming to 
logic 6 fresh from scratch and will be using EXCLUSIVELY virtual instruments 
combined with audio... is the mach 5 perhaps a better choice... does it integrate as 
well into logic as exs?  or near?

thanks in advance

Its streaming performance is great, and you can run 64 of them on one 
machine - i.e. it's extremely efficient. That's "way behind?!"

Certainly Kontakt has more slice/dice features, Halion lets you apply 
on-the-fly DSP to individual samples in a program, etc. etc., but 
they all have their strengths.

Take everything you read on the internet with a grain of salt!

I haven't used it and can't say, but if you're using Logic, it's not 
a bad idea to start with EXS and see how far you get.
