The update of this tutorial for logic 9 is just as great, but old watching old versions like this one always gives you an in depth of the evolution of the plugin that allows you a better comprehension of little details. Great video.

I found this tutorial very informative and professionally presented by David Dvorin with the highest quality of expertise and knowledge and yet was explained with detailed simplicity. I will be looking forward to more tutorials from David Dvorin.

This is a great tutorial that got me up and running with the EXS24 very quickly. I can't wait for the Logic 8 update!

very good tutorial . All of the features are explained thoroughly and are easy to follow.

There haven't been a lot of changes with the EXS24 between Logic 7 & 8, so this is still quite a useful set of videos.

Very good tutorial chock full of information. Don't blink during the last part of this tutorial or you'll miss a lot! Had I not gotten this video, I would have missed out on the amazing capabilities of another great component within Logic - Thanks MPV!

I found this tutorial to be very informative on topics such as: the allocation of exs files /sub folders (which is what 8 now includes), to virtual memory, to knowing what speed your exs will run the best at considering your Os. Many things which we might skim over when reading a manual as huge as Logics New Encyclopedias's ( come on Apple!! some of us still love the all in one rubber cover's of yesterday. Plus,all macpro's videos have little surprises, that make you go ah ah! that's how you do it!

If I had the video and printed chapter at the same time, I would watch first, then read. The video provided a much more direct understanding of how the EXS24 works. An excellent overview of basic functions is followed by demonstrations of simple to more complex procedures such as using velocity to trigger the cutoff filter to simulate softer attacks at lower velocities. Very helpful! There is one area to tidy up the information being presented. In the "Exploring Groups" chapter, simulating the mechanical properties of the hi hat is discussed. The on-screen floating information panel mentions three hat samples; open, closed, and pedal,... usually mapped to F#, G#, and A#. To a beginner, this might be interpreted as: open/F#, closed/G#, pedal/A#. If one is using a GM model, the relationships are closed/F#, pedal/G#, and open/A#. The eagle-eyed will note that when David clicks the keys, the Audio File box in the Zone 3 window does show the proper relationship. Perhaps the information panel could be updated. An excellent overview and programming reference. I rate it a 4.5

All the Logic Pro tutorials are awesome! The best! However, I'm very new to Logic Studio 8 and I have no music experience at all except for music appreciation. So it is a bit disappointing that the latest tutorials on Logic Pro that I bought seem to be for Logic Pro 7. I understand that the interface is different yet probably close enough for me to make the transition but I don't like to have to do that at all. I would give you a 5 for the quality but a 2 because of the Logic 8 vs. Logic 7. --Jeff

didnt find it as great as the new logi8 thats started and i have subscribed too.the presenter in this is too advanced or in my mind assumes a good knowledge of its participants.unlike logig 8 101 which is superb even if a little slow in getting the new sections every week or 2
