2/5/17 - Learning Logic (Software) (Part 15) (Sampled Instruments)

36% complete.  Alright!  Today I finally got to the chapter on sampled instruments, as in midi instruments that actually play real recordings from real-world instruments!  This is what I'm most familiar with working in GarageBand and all that.  And this is one of the main reasons I wanted to upgrade to Logic, for more powerful, more advanced sampled instruments.  Today I learned where exactly to find the different settings and features, most notably the keyboard mapping feature (which allows you to create your own instrument from your own set of recordings).  GarageBand may have had that, though I'm not sure.  Never actually tried that before, but it's definitely crossed my mind.  Anyway, for my reference, apparently every sampled instrument operates under an effect(?) called EXS24.  This is what you'll open to manipulate the instrument.
