EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Hey teddybut,

Although you may not like Christian's response, would it be better if he 
hadn't written at all? That's what I fear will happen if you describe 
someone's posting as 'lame', 'mumbo jumbo', and call them 'nuts'. I respect 
that you might like to talk 'straight', but I would rather our exchanges be 
a bit less hot, if only to keep all kinds of people interested and 
_participating_ in our group.

Hey TB,

Don't curtail too much! Passion is welcomed here, I'm sure, as are your 
insights and tips. ;-)

Hi All,

I finally got around to trying the Yellow Tools tryout (in it's pristine original intended format). The samples sound great. But trying to call up the Djembe patch from the "multi" load button crashes logic everytime. The others seem to load fine. Anyone else had this problem?

As far as the ongoing discussions regarding mapping the samples into EXS instruments go, there have been some compelling points made by both Nick and Eric. IMHO Eric summed up the dilemma best by describing how the license is for useage not ownership, yet because of the market model which these things operate under, there is a strong sense of "property ownership" when transacting the "purchase". It is a paradox that has no easy answer. These are indeed very morally challenging times we are working in.
