EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Hi all, I'm new on the group. Can anyone tell me how
to
see all Sampler Instruments in the EXS-24 on PC ?
The problem is that I have put maybe 30 CDs of
translated Roland patches in the correct folder, but
it seems that the EXS cannot see all the patches at
once ?!? I must use the 'find' function to see what
I'm
looking for. Quite weird to me. I even tried
re-installing the whole system, thinking that it would
be an OS or Logic error, updating every firmware and
drivers: nothing was corrected. I even bought like 10
native EXS-24 CDs that I dumped on the drive like they
show how to do it right, and still the same problem.
Looks like the EXS has a patch population limit !?

Here are my specs: P-3 1GHz / 4 HDs ( 1x 18G UW-SCSI
for Audio tracks, 1x 60G ata-133 for my C -where logic
and my instruments stuff is located along with Windows
ME ( also tried XP after ), 2x 60G ata-133 ( 1 for
video playback and 1 for EXS-instruments WAV files )
512MB ram / HammerFall 9652 / Matrox G-450 E-TV /
Ati-PCI rage pro / network card.

Any help would be greatly  appreciated!
Thanx
Phnadz

You have to place them in your Sampler Instruments folder. Or place a
shortcut (alias on Mac) in your SI folder pointing at their location. Also,
you can't bury them more than a few layers deep. I.e. you can't them in
folders within folders within folders etc. etc.

Thanks Jim, but I took care not to go more than 2 or 3 folders deep from the Sampler
Instruments folder. You may also note that when I start Logic ( PC ), the instrument
scanning during the start-up process takes quite a while... like 1 full minute. If I move
the instruments away from that computer, logic starts very fast.  Is there a problem with
my config?  Any other Ideas anyone?
Someone I know told me that this issue had already been discussed on this group
or the LUG. Are there classified archieves somewhere from which I could find
an answer ? 

Apart from that, everything rocks!

Cheers

Phil
