Hi

I was wondering if there's a quicker way of auditioning subsequent 
sound presets within an EXS24 library folder. Similar to a hardware 
synth 
where you simply rotate a wheel to go through many presets.

At the moment, each time I want to hear the next preset within a 
folder, I need to navigate (sometimes through quite a few sub 
folders) and select the next preset down. Very time consuming and 
frustrating when I have clients sitting in! Surely there must be a 
quicker way?

I use Mac G4 with Logic 4.7 + EXS24 (mkI)

Many thanks!

Matt

I'm not sure about Mk I but in Mk II there is a plus(+) next to the 
name of the active preset. If you press it the next preset will be 
loaded. Hope this helps.

Matt,

Don't know why my first post didn't come through, but. . .  You can 
click on the - and + buttons on either side of the EXS24 instrument 
name display to advance or revert to the next consecutive instrument.

Thanks for your help guys. EXS24 mkI doesn't have the - or + sign, 
but I am upgrading to Logic 7 now, so problem solved.
