Re: [NEWS] Redmatica releases Keymap One 1.5

Hey Andrea,

My name is Willie Dowling and I¹ve been using your programme  EXSManager Pro
(I¹m currently v 2.9.2) for some time now.

I compose music mostly for film and television (www.williedowling.co.uk)
interjected with occasional band projects, and I¹m just about to start a new
film wherein one of the key instruments is a Welsh pump organ. This is
comprised of all home made samples which I recently, for the very first
time, crudely imported the samples into an EXS24 instrument. No looping,
nothing complex. Just simple import each sample to a Zone on each key note I
sampled, tell the sample the range of notes it is to play over, even out the
volumes a little and make minor adjustments to sample start times, and
that¹s about it. And it works ok. Sustain a note too long and it just stops
of course, but the thought of learning how to loop over each sample is too
daunting and time consuming.

But I¹ve been following the recent traffic in the Logic user groups with
interest, and it seems that your keymap one (if I¹m right in what I think
I¹ve understood!) is the intelligent and simple way to do this kind of
import job much more efficiently. I should stress that for the most part I
rely on my rather huge music library which I use within EXS24 and rarely
even edit sounds, let alone create my own, but I do have a number of folders
of wav samples of various instruments , including the pump organ, that are
currently unused simply because I¹m not that experienced in creating my own
EXS instruments from scratch, and whenever I¹ve tried it seems extremely
time consuming.

Would I be correct in thinking that this new program of yours would be ideal
for me, and is it really as simple as people are suggesting, given that not
only am I inexperienced at this kind of thing, I am also intensely lazy!

I would appreciate any advice you may have.

I run a G5 quad OSX 10.4.8, using Logic Pro ver 7.2.3 combining a DAE-TDM
environment with core audio.

Thanks for any suggestions,

Willie Dowling
