AND: MAC OSX USERS EASY INSTALL The BackBeat.db and Bonus Spectrasonics.db files will be installed in the following location on your hard drive: User/Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics/SAGE/SAGE Libraries/EXP Libraries The special BackBeat Multi patches for Stylus RMX will be installed in: User/Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics/SAGE/Stylus RMX/Patches/Multis CUSTOM INSTALL This option allows you to install to the remote location of your SAGE folder if it exists on another drive. If not adding it manually might solve a lot of problems. In this case Burning Grooves is mentioned. And it also determines the order they will appear in RMX.Ĭheck the txt file and make sure that the library. This is a very important little file and I've had the case where I had to change it manually in order for RMX to recognise the library. Now inside this folder there is also a text file called 'order.txt'. Withing the SAGE folder the path for the expansions is this: Sage / Sage Libraries / EXP Libraries The exp libraries folder should hold the files from the x-pansion.
Inside the spectrasonics folder there should be either the SAGE folder or the alias referring to that SAGE folder on a seperate drive or location. The original path of the spectrasonics libraries is this: users / (your account) / library / application support / spectrasonics. I installed a couple of X-pander libraries and I admit also it was not as straight foreward as I would have expected.Įspecially if you use a seperate hard drive then your system drive to store libraries. Kinda ended up using a combo of this (as suggested and written by C Lambrechts on here): the location is important. Now create a new instance of RMX and open that new Sage loop. Awesome drum loop in your DAW? Now export that, now import into Recycle. #3 - The Sage converter is a huge break in work flow. But you gotta be aware of this hard-wired fade out in Recylce and work around it. This sure makes importing some waves difficult. #2 - Recycle alters a file (the automatic fade out per slice - even with all envelope settings off - check this in an audio editor). You need Recylce in import even a simple drum hit. #1 - RMX is still being 100% dependant on a 3rd party app for the ability to import any audio into RMX. Ie: The Sage converter is a huge departure from the Spectrasonics quality and ease of integration in their other software. But SAGE is well.not well integrated into the whole Spec suite. I imagine that a future version of Stylus (or whatever it would be called) will make this more elegant and Spectrasonicsized than the current way (which is old).+1 I love RMX. It isn't dead simple easy and is frustrating if you don't go and watch Eric's tutorials.
The Spectrasonics team goes deep into showing how to unlock the full potential of Stylus RMX 1.
This is one program I find is totally un-Spectrasonics. So directly dropping the folder into sage converter doesn't work.
The installer will render it compliant during conversion and generally this is based on a xml file read by the installer. run an installer provided by the library producer In the second case the folder is still present but not necessarily compliant to rmx structure.drag and drop a folder containing a rmx compliant structure (file names under 32 chars, max 61 files per folder, etc.) into sage converter.I'm really not sure what Im missing here? Any help appreciated! Could you expand on this?there are two way to convert rx2 files into rmx library:
Here is the path: SAGE >user libraries >converted rex files >'name of folder with loops in' >data.xml To get to this stage I dragged the folder with the rex2 files in it onto the sage converter. In the actual 'SAGE' folder in the 'user libraries' folder it seems there is only an xml file named 'data' which obviously doesn't seem right. The folders seem to be showing up under 'suites' in Stylus RMX when I select user libraries but there is nothing in 'elements', so there is no way to access the samples. Hi I'm trying to import a batch of rex2 files which I recently bought into Stylus RMX using the SAGE converter.
