Logic 5.5 and EXS24 Not Working

Logic 5.5 and EXS24 Not Working

2003-04-20 by mshelpless

Hi 

I've just loaded Logic 5.5 and from what I believe EXS24 from the 
installation CD for upgrade from 4 to 5.  I am running OS X 10.2.5 
however I cannot get EXS to work, all of the EXS24 areas are crossed 
out and cannot be set. Even though it says I have 84 days or 
something similar to trial it.  Till my registration comes through.

Also, I had an existing copy of EXS do I need to pay for an upgrade?

Please HELP!!!

Don't worry.  It's not possible to not install EXS24 if you've 
installed Logic 5 or 6.  It comes as part of the bundle, already built 
in.  The only thing you need to get it to work is an unexpired XSKey 
license for it.

I'm not sure what you mean by "the EXS24 areas".  Do you mean the spots 
on the channel strips where you would normally click and select the 
EXS24 from the menu?  If that's crossed out, then it's normally a audio 
driver problem.  Check your settings.

Also, you should make sure you're trying to insert the EXS24 on an 
audio INSTRUMENT track, and not just an audio track.

one more thing: IIRC, the location to insert audio instruments on the 
audio instrument channel strip changed between 4&5.  You now want to 
click on the second box from the bottom of the strip to insert 
instruments -- just above the output (which should read something like 
"output 1-2").
