EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

I just posted the note about using AKAI format samples with EXS24 MkII 
and forgot all about my Giga sample library which is also extensive.  I 
apologize, but will my Giga samples convert to EXS24 MkII on my OSX 
10.4, Logic Pro 7.2 dual processor system?  Sory for the inconvenience?

had very good luck using Giga samples with EXS

  Julie,

Thank you very much.  My giga samples are for the original Giga sampler, not the new version three by TASCAM.  Mike Knox

do giga samples also work with the vsti version of exsp24 or is that a different thingy altogether?

No worry, your new EXS mark II will play the "old" EXS programs and samples, plus it can easily import Akai S-1000/3000 and Giga files too. (The only exception to your request is EXS will not import Giga3 programs (would be recent libraries) and Akai S-5000 programs. You'd need a third-party convertor for that.)

Hi,

I have Akai Samples on Floppy Disks from (CD-3000 & S-3000xl) i have Logic 7.1 and want to know if i can get the samples off the floppys, i have tried the ESS24 but it is not finding the disks.

Any help or advice would be great.

Thanks,

Spencer.

Yeah, the Mac is useless when it comes to reading the floppies. 
Really, the only solution for now is to find a S-3000/2000 and load 
them and save them to a SCSI ZipDrive or hard drive. You then can 
hook that drive up to the Mac (or insert the ZipDisk) and make an 
image of it, then burn a CD of it using Toast. Then EXS will see that CD.

We would be happy to do this for you, contact me at garth@....
