Structure : the path to EXS samples

[redmount]

Hello,

I would like to know how to make Structure v1.1 find every samples for every EXS instruments I am trying to load.
Sometimes the "Spotlight" option works, sometimes it does not.

Is there a way to reconnect it all ?

Thank you.

Redmatica's EXS Manager Pro will link your exs instruments to there samples. GREAT way to spend $100. Works perfectly.

And then Structure will open each and every EXS instruments ? No need to "Spotlight" anymore ?

I have the entire Vienna Symphonic library in EXS format and did the following. I put the samples on one of my internal harddisks reserved for samples. I put the sampler instruments in Applications/Digidesign/Structure. Then I went to Structure, in the setup/content I gave the path where the samples are, in browser I went to where the sampler instruments are and added each and every folder to favorites by clicking on the + sign. Then I went to see if things worked out: in patch all folders with the instruments were there, when I called up an instrument a few times I was asked for the path where the samples were, after doing this a few times everything seems to be hunky-dory. I noted also that Users/yourhome/shared/library/application support/digidesign/air/structure/favorites is were all the favorites are listed (with aliases).

Good luck! Structure works like a charm now!

Done, I got Exs Manager Pro, everything is fine.

One more thing : Every Exs instrument I load into Structure are including a Metadata Part named "Meta_@@Rating::". A red exclamation mark appears the same way it does when a sample hasn't been found.
I tried the EXS Manager "delete all Metadatas" but no effect once in Structure.
Any idea.

Thanks.
