can't find newly installed jampack synths

Randall - what is on the JamPack DVD?

I've seen discussions on this board saying there are EXS24 instruments, but I cannot get any info from my local apple store or the apple web site.

If there are EXS24 instruments, which instruments?

Thanks!

The instruments are EXS24 samples. As far as the instruments go, they depend on the jam pack.

Wow, I can't believe this is posted today. Just last night, I installed the same JamPack and had the SAME problem..weird!

Anyway, I've got your solution...

I found all of mine in the Garageband instruments section, when selecting a virtual instrument. (Stereo->Logic->GB Instruments). The reason I looked here is because, for pretty much all the documentation for the JamPacks, it says one of the requirements is GB. Didn't really say anything about LE or Pro, so I started there, with GB.

Pick an instrument, like "Tuned Percussion" from your GB Instruments. Now go up to the arrow right below the Bypass button on your instrument window...way more options now! I love the sound of the Timpani. Check out the other instruments, there are a bunch added for strings, and I think 2 new pianos (Steinway being one, unless I'm mistaken and it's been there all along).

I think that's pretty much it, outside of the loops. Let me know if that helps.

You can load them in either the GB instrument or the EXS24. I prefer the EXS because I often turn various percussion instruments into multichannel (not to mention the ability to go crazy with them like applying filters and changing the envelopes).

They are in all of the above. B-D

Jord - is there some way I can find out which instruments the Jam Paks (especially the Symphony Orchestra) come with?

I've even walked into an Apple store and asked. Their audio 'expert' had no clue and hasn't phoned me back.

Thanks.

John -

1. those are all exs24 instruments?

2. How many samples do the EXS24 instruments typically have ( one per note?)

3. Are there multiple samples for different velocity ranges?

Thanks
