The Lost Instrument

The Lost Instrument

2005-06-22 by jasperboeke

When swapping songs in Logic 6.4, and then returning to the first one, EXS24 instruments 
are lost. Midi data are still there, but there's no longer an instrument to play it!!!
Since my Sampler Instruments library is rather large, this can mean disaster... 
 Anyone seen this before?

The EXS Instruments are at a new location:
Copy them to:
user/library/application support/Logic/Sampler Instruments
then it should work

Thanks Uwe!

I didn't mean that the exs file is lost, I ment that the instruments are 'unloaded' after the 
song swop.

My Sampler Instruments folder is on another disk for logistic reasons, and the Logic folder 
has an alias pointing to it. Always worked fine, but maybe this has something to do with it 
though?

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
