loading LOGIC sounds into Kronos

OKay here 's a question..
Can you somehow load some of the LOGIC samples into the Kronos

I love the pop horn sample in LOGIC, would love to uses it live off the Kronos

Im terrible at sampling (the whole velocity/mapping thing never works for me.

They are exs files.

What is the best way to do this? or is sampling the only way to go?

You could try a sample conversion program that will convert the sound from an exes to a sf2.... Then load it into the Kronos that way...

thanks for that suggestion...I'm looking around but don't seem to find any programs that work with MAC osx..any ideas?

again, looking to convert LOGIC samples (.ESX) and play them into the Kronos

Though I've never used it, Translater Pro is OS X compatible, and works with EXS-24 formats.

I use Translator on the Mac. Which EXS file(s) are you specifically hoping to convert? I can try it out to see how if works OK.

Would be interested in the results and how automated it is. I have done a few manually and it is a time killer.

Thanks Busch.
Pop horns was one oft first picks.
I haven't tried that software you suggested yet.

Well I found one in the GargeBand folder called Pop Horn Section. I was able to bring that over with no real issues. Is that the one you're thinking of? That's why I ask for the specific name. These files are located deep in the OSX library.

I will check that this afternoon..It is in LOGIC 9. either "studio horns" or "pop horn section"

will let you know// Would love to be able to use that live off the Kronos. It sounds great on recordings and i don't think Kronos has a horn section patch that is as good..

thanks

the file is "studio horns" it is in LOGIC 9

If you can find the .exe file on your system, please provide the exact path. I have the patch in Logic and it plays fine, but I can't find "studio horns.exe" on my system. Again, exact path. I test how well it translates.

I think Studio Horns is actually a channel strip. It calls up the Horn Section.exs - maybe that will help.
