Thanks for your comment.

As a sample developer, I am aware of the fact that Kontakt, Halion,
E-MU Emulator X, etc. are much more advanced samplers than EXS MKII.
However, the EXS is the one you can not leave out when developing
sample libraries - it is tied into Logic.

I managed to create quite good results playing with offests. But in
overall, EXS it is nowhere near of the synthesis and editing
possibilites of Halion3, Kontakt2 or.. the most advance, the E-MU
Emulator X.

In terms of stability and speed, EXS stil rocks... And I think, when
Apple introduces the successor of Logic (hopefully soon), it will also
incorporate a new sampler, maybe an EXS MKIII who knows...
