Hi all,

• I am on SPlat Dorchester / Windows 7 64 bits.
• I have re-installed Dimension Pro via CCC (took about 2 hours).
• I have done a VST Scan, restarted Sonar and done a 'F5' in the DimPro Browser to refresh it.
• Have also restartet the machine

Would like to try out the Gibson EB5 basses under 'Real Basses'.
When I select one of the 5 entries, I get a pop-up messagebox saying
 
Multisamples not found
EB5 TCTN+ TCTB.sfz
 
I have also tried to scan my C:\ & D:\ drive, looking for the sfz-files,
but they are are nowhere to be found, certainly not under DimPro\multisamples.
 
I had a similar problem when installing the Reference Guide, and at the time,
Braintree, I suspected the reason was my non-English installation directories
on the C:\ - drive. They are called 'C:\Programfiler' and 'C:\Programfiler (x86)'.
 
Is there anyone out there able to shed some light on this?
No other problem with DimPro - that I'm aware of.
 
Thanks in advance.

Can you locate them through windows explorer? Usually C:\Program Files (Program Filer)\Cakewalk\Dimension Pro\Multisamples on Win7 x64, and C:\Program Files X86\Cakewalk\Dimension Pro\Multisamples on Win7 X86 (32 bit).

No,
unfortunately, they are not on my harddrive at all.
 
Per

For what it's worth, I don't see any such program in Dim Pro or Rapture Pro.  My Dim Pro was installed with X3 last fall.
 
 

The Gibson EB5 programs are in place,
but when I select one of the five present ones,
I get the error Message 'Multisample not found'.
 
I think Craig Anderton made these samples from
a Gibson 5-string bass and made them available
for Sonar users during a monthly give-away some time
back, probably Sonar X3.
 
Then they were refined and included in one of
SPlats monthly releases, if I remember correctly. 

I don't have them if they're supposed to be under 'Real Basses'

Do you have Rapture Pro?
If not, did you reinstall Dimension Pro when
upgrading to Sonar Platinum?
 
You will probably get them if you reinstall DimPro,
seeing that you are on SPlatD.

If DPro was not installed when the EB5 package was installed, I would guess the multisamples are stored in a folder below where the RPro samples are located, the default is "C:\Cakewalk Content\Cakewalk Sample Data\Rapture Pro." This is not where DPro would normally look for multisamples. You can either point DPro to look in the Rapture Pro folder or move the EB5 samples to the DPro multisamples folder.

Hi scook,
if the missing sample file name is 'EB5 TCTN+ TCTB.sfz', or something
like *EB5*.sfz, it's not on my harddrive at all.
I've searched and looked at all .sfz files on my system both the C:\ & D:\ drives,
but nothing like EB5 came up.
 
Thanks for your interest!
 

The SFZ files are not the samples, they point to the samples. For example here are two lines from the EB5_PURE_B.sfz file:
 
<region> sample=EB5_PURE_B\B1.wav key=B1 lokey=b1 hikey=b1
<region> sample=EB5_PURE_B\C2.wav key=C2 lokey=C2 hikey=C2
 
This means it's looking for the samples in the EB5_PURE_B folder. The sample names are just note names, like B1, C1, C#1, etc. Maybe this screen shot will help you locate them:
