What can Structure do? Does it only play samples as a plug-in, or does it have its own MIDI mapper? Can you export samples or loops, for instance, as WAV files for later use in Propellerhead ReCycle?

Thu, 15 Jan 2009 15:11:14 +0000 http://www.synthtopia.com/content/2007/09/02/structure-sampler/#comment-131757 Warning!! Do not, under any circumstances, install Structure Free, and then, when you decide you like the application, install Structure LE. Why? There is a serious conflict between the folders and files each version uses, and if you have not done a complete and exhaustive un-install (I tried this, but no matter how many days I spent reading digidesign forums, read-me's, manuals and advice on the web, I couldn't achieve getting every last piece of Structure LE off my hard drive), the plug-in will totally HANG Pro Tools, searching for files in the wrong location. This in turn will hang your computer (in my case, a MacBook Pro, which has never had a problem), causing on occasion a total crash, leaving your external firewire drive exposed to being corrupted or broken. I can not overstate this: Do not, ever, install more than one version of Structure. If you tried the Free version, too bad, you should NEVER upgrade. The risk is too great. Digidesign have done a woeful job of attempting to explain how to get around this problem. Buyer beware. Warning!!
