I've noticed that some of my samples, Wavs I think, are greyed out in the file selector Aifs, on the other hand are selectable. How do I change this state of affairs? Regards, John Russell johnrussell@... Tel: 01483 821314 Mob: 07778 156433

In Logic, or something else? Are you Mac or PC?

Sorry, On a Mac, in Logic inside the file selector for EXS but I notice the same is true in Battery and other apps that use file types. John John Russell <mailto:johnrussell@...> johnrussell@... Tel: 01483 821314 Mob: 07778 156433

Funny - WAV's work here on my Mac. Maybe the sample frequency of your wav files is too low...... Try a 44.1 Khz wav file for interest. Regards - Colin

No, it�s as if the wav files are not acceptable files for the app ie EXS. A bit like if you were to look at a wav file in a Word doc folder. Docs are highlighted but the wav would be greyed out. It�s probably to do with file associations or something. Wavs have a Quicktime icon on my Mac. Could that be anything to do with it?

They should be read natively on the system. Macs do not consider WAVs to be PC files. There readily recognized typically. I suggest reinstalling your operating system. I suspect you're missing some essential component of the OS. I've never encountered this in my years of Mac tech support.

Wavs have a >Quicktime icon on my Mac. Could that be anything to do with it? The icon simply relates to the file _creator_ and this shouldn't make any difference at all. For example, if I use SoundApp to convert an AIFF file to WAV, it will have a unique icon that comes from SoundApp. Lots of wav files have quicktime icons here too..... What version of Logic are you using? Regards - Colin PS - did you actually check the sample rate? A low sample rate WILL make files unacceptable and greyed-out.

I feel a little foolish over this. I was looking in two apps that have sophisticated file selectors, Battery and EXS24. The kind where you can select a bunch of files and add the lot to a file selector to load many samples in at the same time. In Battery, those already assigned to a kit don�t show up in the file selector, In EXS even though I�ve done this many times, I was looking at the wrong file selector for importing samples. It was simply a question of the wrong file type for the wrong file selector. Pilot error! My apologies. John John Russell <mailto:johnrussell@quantise.net> johnrussell@...
