Is there a global way of copying all the audio samples used by my EXS 
24 instruments to a new hard drive location?

How about just copying them, as you would with any files?  Then put 
an alias to that new folder in your Logic folder, so Logic quickly 
finds those samples.

Hi Hendrik

The problem is that as the guys have made new instruments they have 
placed the samples on various hard drives as such I am not sure where 
all the samples are. I have just spent 3 hours laboriously copying 
all the audiofiles inst by inst to a new folder. I just hope this is 
the solution. I frequently get the maessage more than one copy found. 
It would be nice to have a safe 'delete duplicate' set up

regards

Peter

Ah... that makes a difference indeed :).

Got the same problem here.  Still not sure how to handle that...

If you are Mac-based. Use Sherlock to do a custom search for the EXS
instruments by searching for the EXS file type, which you can identify by
downloading Invisible File Copier from my Web site and viewing an EXS file.
Take that information and do a custom search in Logic on all drives for that
file type.http://musicbootcamp.com/exs24.shtml

This should have read, "Take that information and do a custom search in
Sherlock..."

I had the impression his problem was that the _samples_ are all over 
the place, not the exs instruments themselves (which are indeed easy 
to find with your suggested method).

Duh, you are right. Don't know where my head was at... Jer
