Create folders at the root of the external drive called “EXS Samples” and “EXS Instruments,” then drag the content to the respective folders.

One folder has the actual audio recordings/samples in it, and the other folder contains the EXS24 “instruments.” These instruments normally come in two folders. You’re looking for instrument packs that support the EXS or EXS24 format. When you buy an instrument pack, they normally come in various formats: EXS24/Kontakt/Giga etc.

The drive you install these instruments on should be a relatively fast drive in addition to instruments simply being loaded into RAM, the EXS24 has the ability to “stream” audio directly from the drive when not enough RAM is available, so the faster the better. I’d suggest physically connecting the drive to the specific Mac to access the library. Also, if the network is down, you have zero access to your instruments. You might be able to do this with a network connected drive, but I’d guess this could be unreliable at times especially if the network is being used heavily. There’s a simple trick to taming this, but first your EXS instrument library needs to be loaded onto an external drive. When you have two or more Macs however, organizing these libraries can get very confusing. These allow you to extend your EXS24 library with thousands of additional sampled instruments.

Many people have enormous EXS24 sample libraries including myself! If you’re not familiar with the EXS24 you should be! In addition to it’s large built-in sampled instrument library, the EXS24 allows you to “install” 3rd party sampled instruments from tons of different vendors like Eastwest and Big Fish Audio. Today’s tip is for Logic EXS24 users with multiple Macs.
