can somebody help me please?

i downloaded sample packs in zip format and tried unzipping using online downloads, didnt work, the one that did work said that this filecan not be changed using this software (or something along them lines) and apparently i read on mac it automatically unzips files if u double click on the file.
the files can be open in itunes (does this mean that they are unzipped already?!)

(btw my next questions going to be how do u u se them in logic? do i just drag them into the system folder with all the logic samples)

thank u

What are you using to try and unzip them? Give Winrar a try if you haven't already.

I use a program called stuffit expander, opens loads of compression types,

In Logic open up the media button in the top right and go to browser, then just search for where you put your samples,

It is a good idea to have all of your samples in one place so it's easier to access them rather than hunting all over your hard drive for that small obscure sample

peace

i checked the other files of the pack (stuff for nnxt rex etc) and they looked compressed (the icons) compared to the ones im tryna use (exs24 wav)
i guess mac does uncompress automatically(?)
i already tried to unzip using several programs

and i just tried that thing to find them in media in logic (thanks) but theyre not playing (no sound)

thanks for your help guys

at the bottom of the browser is a speaker and a volume control, make sure to turn the speaker on then click on the sample you want to hear, I think by default it is turned off

Stupid question but you did put the audio on an audio track? with enough volume, assigned to the master bus?

I'm not sure if Logic will let you put audio on a midi track but I may as well ask.
