EXS24 cant find sound files

EXS24 cant find sound files

2004-03-22 by s007ing

Hi everyone, I have the exs24mkII, with the exs instruments on a G4 
powerbook and the samples on an external fire wire drive.  When I am in 
Logic (6.3 3running in OS 10.2) and enter the exs24 window, many of my 
samples fail to load- when enter the drop down menu for the exs instruments, 
and select one, I get an error message saying the "sound file xxxxxxxx can not 
be found."  However, when I go into my fire wire drive, the particular wav files 
(samples) are actually there and can be played individually.  Can any one 
help?

Many thanks!

Peter

Have you run Project Manager's excruciatingly slow Resolve 
whatevertheheckitscalled routine? It won't find them until you do 
that.

It can take a couple of days - literally - if you have a lot of 
samples (such as VSL), but Redmatica's EXSManager does it in a couple 
of minutes. www.Redmatica.com.
