  • Exs24 Opus library question

    Hi,

    If I order the exs24 format of the Opus library and use it for the moment on a PC, would I be able to get the "giga" performence tool (at no charge) with it ?
    Also, I suppose that I will be elligible for a Xkey authorisation code, so If I eventually get a mac laptop I could use the opus library also with Loigc 6 on the mac ?

    Thanks for clarifying

    Michel, do you say you're intending to run the EXS version of opus on logic 5.5 for windows? i can't really recommend that (even if we would give you the performance tool for windows) - midi-routing for this configuration is black magic ...

    Hi Christian,

    I am aware of it. At least this black magic was obvious while trying to use more than one Port with the performence demo tool. Otherwise, with a specific environment, I could get to work two legato instruments on the same Port without apparent problem. So it seems that I could get 16 performence instruments to work at the same time. This is of course the results I got with the really limited performence tool and incomplete legato instruments of the demo. So things may be indeed not be so useable even on a single port basis. That's to see.
    And in the worst case, I could "Bounce" one legato instrument at a time as that should not be a problem at all (or even trying keyswitching manually). This should be OK for the moment as I don't have a lot of big orchestration work to do. This may change after getting the Opus of course [;)]... But then, if I can afford a mac laptop I will be ready to use the Opus on it.
    Also, looking at using gigasampler with logic, as far as I did understoud, I would have to render each giga legato instrument into a wave file and import these waves files into logic for finalising my mix?
    I mean, there is no way to do a direct Bounce from Logic without rendering first waves files from giga. So this would be as much work than to Bounce one legato instrument at a time in Logic. Or I am missing something here ?
    Otherswise, with the exs24 opus on PC, apart form midi-routing problem, is there anything else that would not work or be problematic on logic 5.5 that I should be aware of ?

    Thanks

    Michel
