.sf2 Inside Of Exs24, how do you REALLY use .sf2 files in Logic's EXS24 Options

[Derok]

Hi,

I just recently discovered this exciting world .sf2 files; and would like to use
them inside of Logic's EXS24 sampler. I've read the plug-in reference manual,
and I've even seen this subject on a post from a couple of years ago. Both
sources mentioned placing the .sf2 file inside of the Sampler Instruments folder
via Library/ Application Support/ Logic/ Sampler Instruments then open up the
EXS 24 and the file should show in drop down menu of the sampler.
Nah.... it hasn't worked. All of the other Sampler Instruments show but the .sf2
doesn't.

Can anyone who has used .sf2 files explain to me how they used them inside
of the EXS24? What could I possibly be doing wrong? I would really appreciate
any feedback on this topic. There' s seem to be very little information on how
to do this, if it's even possible.

Thanks,
derok

gdoubleyou.... You are 100% correct.... {Open the EXS first before you insert the Disk}

Yep, that's what ya gotta do...

If anyone wants sweet, warm and genuine 'Strings" without maxing out your HD (Some Libraries have 10, 20 or more GB's!!!!!! Even worse, you'll never use 10%... You know how it goes, you find a certain sound and you return to it again and again, otherwise you can spend days, weeks, months, years just "Listening" and not playing... I digress...

So, Members, if you were not aware you can AKAI Samples into Logic.

1- Open Logic, 5/6 or 7.

2-Open ESX24. On the "Right Side" of the ESX24 is an "OPTION" Button. "Click" Follow instructions. That's all. Too easy!

gdoubleyou... Very good Grasshopper, you have indeed demonstrated that you have become ready to venture from your studio and allow your wisdom and music live...

Thanks gdoubleyou...
