EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Hello,

I read all the manual but I haven't seen a function importing WAV or AIFF file in EXS format 
so I can see it in the EXS instruments, near my akai and exs samples.

Is there a function or a shareware that permit this operation?

Thanks

Paulista

Hi Paulista,

You are sort of asking the wrong question. Wav and Aiff are audio file 
format. EXS refers to a soft sampler instrument format. The EXS format 
_reads_ Aiff and Wav files, it doesn't convert them.

What you need to do is go into the EXS editor window, create a new 
instrument, create a new zone, or zones; and then import the Aiff or 
Wav files into those zones. Then save it and you'll have an EXS 
instrument that triggers those Wav and Aiff files.

Depending on what you want to do, you might find the import multiple 
zones command useful. It allows you to bring in a batch of audio files 
in one shot with a choice of how you want them mapped.

Hope this helps......

Thanks anserwing my question.

I understand your explanation, but I would to have all my samples (like Akai, Exs, sf2, aiff, 
etc.) in organized directory to recall its in my database order, like akai end exs samples 
permit to do in exs24 instrument window. (Sample Instruments folder)

I know I can organize wave or aiff files assigning in many zones, but I hope there is 
another function to do this operation fastly. (like importing akai cd rom: I see samples in 
exs window (preset in Sample Instruments folder))

Thanks
Paul

Not sure if I'm understanding, but you can place your Aiff and Wav 
files anywhere you want on your drives in any folder. The EXS will find 
them.

No, there's no way to quickly do this like when converting an Akai CD 
Rom.

Yes, EXS find aiff files but not properly in the same thing like AKAI. I can choose Akai 
samples pressing mouse on exs interface like a virtual hardware.
Is it correct? So I can select aiff instruments only if I first program them in Instrument 
Editor ... I have to spend too much time!

Thanks 

P.S. do you know a software called "exs manager" ?
This software could be solution or not?
