Hi Kurt, Create a sampler instruments folder on your external hard drive, then put an alias of it in the same folder as your Logic Audio application. Logic needs to "see" the "sampler instruments" folder on the same level as itself, but it can be an alias. BTW, you'll probably also want to do this same thing with the Akai Samples folder it will create once you start converting Akai CDs. In fact this folder is the big one where all the samples are actually stored. It's really this one, and not so much the sampler instruments folder that will save you internal HD space. -- Eli Krantzberg Nightshift Orchestra / Almat Productions http://www.nightshiftorchestra.com
