Note: You can store your imported Sampler Instruments in any folder on any of your
computer’s hard drives. To do so, you must create an alias pointing to this folder within
the Sampler Instruments folder located in the main Logic program folder. Care should be
taken when importing samples to ensure that when a song is loaded, the associated
Sampler Instruments will be found. Sampler Instruments are only searched for in the
Sampler Instruments folder (or an alias to it). Any Sampler Instruments stored in other
locations will not be located, and must be loaded manually.

Importing SampleCell Files

The importation of SampleCell format files is as per that of SoundFont2 files. Simply
copy or move your SampleCell files into the Sampler Instruments folder.

Select the file name in the EXSP24 Sampler Instrument load flip-menu and the file will
automatically be converted. An EXS Instrument file will be created in the Sampler
Instruments
folder which contains the original SampleCell file. The raw samples
associated with the Sampler Instrument will be placed in a SampleCell Samples folder
within the main Logic program folder.

Once conversion is complete, the original SampleCell source files can be freely deleted
from the hard disks.

Should you import SampleCell or AKAI format Samples, they will appear as a
SampleCell Samples or AKAI Samples folder on the same level as the EXSamples, Sampler
Instruments
and SoundFont Samples folders. Please refer to the EXSP24 folder hierarchy
diagram above.
