    Hi there,

    How can i make Samplers Recognize Sample Paths From Windows ( songs ) ?

    I have for example a folder C:/Samples in the song

    On OS X i have created new volume

    C
    with a SymLink ( folder with link ) to
    ( correct volume ) /Samples

    All is as i thought it should be, but the songs made on windows keep referring to C: ( colon that is not allowed on os x ) / etc / etc / etc

    if you wrote / in the symlink, it can't work, because it's \

    thank you

    but

    the original folder structure is

    C:\Samples/WAV

    OS X is looking for it in

    /C:/Samples/WAV
    this is where the song says it is not finding it

    I have created a volume labeled C

    ( but it does not have the colon : as that is not something i could put in to a filename for a volume )

    and it has a SymLink going to the original /Samples/WAV

    And song is giving message:

    Missing Samples, please fix

    /C:/Samples/WAV
