Cut, Copy, Paste
The standard commands for cutting, copying, and pasting values. In addition to values
you may also cut, copy, and paste selected Zones and Groups.
Note: When multiple Zones and Groups are cut, copied, or pasted simultaneously, the
Group assignments of the Zones are retained.
Clear
Deletes the currently selected Zone or Group. Clear can be undone with the Undo
command.
Select All
Selects all Zones and Groups of the loaded Sampler Instrument.
Select Zones pointing to selected group(s)
This command automatically selects all Zones that point to one or multiple selected
Groups.
Preferences
The Preferences window allows you to:
Choose the interpolation quality used by the EXS24. When Sample Rate Conversion is
set to Best, the highest possible sound quality is maintained when transposing samples.
It should be noted that this option requires additional CPU cycles over the Normal
setting, which will be adequate in most cases.
Select the format in which the EXS24 handles the loaded sample data via the Sample
Storage parameter. When set to Original, the samples are loaded into RAM at their
original bit depth, and are converted to Logic’s internal 32 Bit floating point format on
playback. When 32 Bit Float is selected, the samples are stored and loaded in this
format. This eliminates the need for any realtime conversion, meaning that the EXS24
can handle the sample data more efficiently and can play back more voices
simultaneously. It should be noted that this requires twice as much RAM for 16 bit
samples, and a third more RAM for24 Bit samples.
