EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

This was posted by Murray McDowall <murraymc@...> in the LUG,
talking about the Logic demo he saw by Phil Jackson running 5.2 w/ Logic
Control etc...

"-- Got a glimpse of a set of a forthcoming set of enhancements to the EXS24
including (according to Phil) switching within patches -- eg pizz strings/
marcato Strings (a la Gigasampler) - apparently a set of enhancements to
the Instrument editor are also due sometime soon."

So no need to get Gigasampler anymore. Now I wonder if Kontact will actually
do anything useful that can't be reproduced in Reaktor, I might only have to
buy one sampler my whole life. :-) 

So I wonder if AKAI cd's (e.g. Peter Siedlaczek's Advanced Orchestra) come
built with multiple articulations etc in the same patch, or do you have to
just import each articulation separate and create the instrument manually in
EXS24? I wonder if Garth will need to work with Emagic to get Translator to
import this properly into the new .exs instrument format

I'm still waiting for velocity crossfade switching among other things. When
will they get that going I wonder... Jer
