    Default Anyone ever bought samples from loopmasters.com?

    Hi, im using logic pro 9 and just bought some samples off of loopmasters.com. When I open up the downloaded folder there is a text file called "INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.doc". The .doc helps on where to save the samples for each DAW sampler, for logic its the exs24. Its specifically says ..


    "Copy the sample pack folder to ...username/Library/Application Support/Logic/Sampler Files
    The next time you Load EXS24 the patches will be seen in the EXS24 browser window."



    But when I navigate to that folder, and yes I have all the folders unhidden. The (Sampler Files) folder doesn't exist. Is this a logic 9 problem?

    All I am trying to do is load all the .wav samples into the exs24, so I can navigate through each of them with ease. Also I want the sample to span the whole keyboard, and to do this manually will take FOREVER.. so this is why I imagine that loopmasters offers this installation guide in the first place.

    Anyone know why this folder doesnt exist, or an alternate folder where I can save .wav samples; that will result in showing up in the exs24 browser?

    any help pleeaasee

    There way to many samples for that. If i put all the samples onto the keyboard amd have each key trigger an individule sample that wuldnt be to hard, but I want each sample to span the whole key board, since most of the samples have some harmonic tone to them. And that would take forever to do. Thats why i imagine that loopmasters.com included this installation guide in the first place.

    Sorry do not mean to be rude just trying to explain my problem which seems there should be a easy answer to this.

    because the samples have harmonics, they arnt drum samples they are samples of instruments that were recorded, so when i load them into a sampler i can play them like an instrument.

    well then what you need to do is load up esx24

    hit the plus sign

    go to edit> New

    Load the particular sample...set it to the right key and then i believe make sure pitch is checkmarked

    save it then it should work for that 1 sample

    yes but the thing is there tons of those sample, and for me to do that for each sample is too tedious. isnt there a nice and easy way to do this, the manual says to save the samples in the samples folder, and they should come up in the exs24 browser like the other instuments do. but i cant find that folder anywhere.

    If these are drum samples, use Ultrabeat. There's a preset with empty slots and then all you need is to drag-and-drop samples to the slots (see youtube for examples.) As a bonus you could tweak the drum samples to Nth degree with the Ultrabeat filters, modulators, ADSRs et rest...
