GigaSampler Converting in EXS24 under OS X/LAP6

GigaSampler Converting in EXS24 under OS X/LAP6

2003-03-13 by Element Records GmbH

Hi there,

has anybody successfully converted some .gig files from the Gigasampler
under OS X/LAP 6?
I put the gig files in the Sample Instruments Folder but they won`t appear
in the EXS-Menue to
be able to convert? Any ideas?

Check for long file names...anything longer than 31 letters doesn't get 
recognized. Just shorten them...be careful not to name them something too 
simple. I had the problem of certain songs reverting instruments to the first file 
they encountered if there was more than one with the same name. i.e. don't 
have two exs instruments named "flutes'. At one point in my exs plug in 
settings (which is how I choose to store my faves) I came across five violins 
pointing to the same file. Another possibility to keep an eye out for is folder 
depth, You don't want the giga deeper than four files in from the sampler inst 
folder. Good luck and remember not all performance traits get properly 
converted. I just spent three days remapping a good portion of "Advanced 
Orchestra"!  Learn that exs editor, it'll come in handy until more of these 
libraries come out native to exs.

good luck

I had this happen if the name was too long.  Shorten it and I bet it 
shows up.

good luck
Julie

Emagic, can we please have this filename length limit function as an 
option that we can disable if we want?

Move to quarantaine
