EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Hey,

problem: I use a server on a network which contains the sampler 
instruments and the Samples I use. I use the instruments and 
samples from within another Mac, and the samples are thus 
transferred through the network to my RAM.

Now, often, when I choose an instrument from within my EXS, it 
says: "Sample X'" was found several times.
Then I can select 1 of three of the SAME options.
It keeps asking and asking, and depending on how big the 
instrument is, it can take up to 20 minutes before I actually can 
use it.
I'm sure that I have no duplicate samples on the serverdisk.

Anyone with the same problem??

Still sounds like a duplicate to me, but I know you don't want to hear it.
Maybe there's some kind of multiple routing to your other computer. Is this
OSX, OS9, or Windows?

It happens under OS9 and OSX

You could try restricting the search that EXS makes for sample in your
preferences (open the Instrument editor and pick preferences from the edit
menu). In general, you can tell the EXS what drives to search on and if all the
files that you want it to use are on one drive you might be able to resrtict
the search to that drive. 

I am on PC and I only use local drives for my samples so I cannot test this
here.

Hope this helps,
