EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

so...whats up with that..?:)
(oh, and....hi, im new to this group...:)

are there any EXS files for the samples yet? 

i have a lot of time, and im on broadband, so i can also help.

BTW, i have noticed that files from the Iowa u. contain more than 1 
note... why is that? do i need to 'chop' the samples before EXS'ing 
them?

CDs of the full set of samples are being sent around the world as we 
speak -- in a kind of chain-mail fashion.  Each of the participants 
picks an instrument to "exs', and when everyone is done, we'll put 
all exs-files in an archive and upload it somewhere.  If you want to 
participate: great.  Send your snail mail address to Anders 
<anders@...>, and take a look here:

That's the list of participants...  Currently I'm working on the 
piano, which proves to be a tough cookie...  Over 250 samples, most 
badly recorded...

That's a problem indeed. If you make an exs instrument for samples 
you chopped up yourself, how would anyone else be able to recreate 
the same instrument?  So I suppose the best way to go about this, is 
to assign the full sample to various keys or zones, and set different 
start and end points for each zone -- i.e. use the full sample as 
it's available.  Individual users could always decide to cut up and 
trim their copy and re-assign the cut-up samples to the proper zones.
