@donding6: If double-clicking on the region opens the Piano Roll or any MIDI Editor then it means you are working with a MIDI region. Only audio files can be opened in the Sample Editor.
You can bounce (render) the MIDI region to audio from the "Region" local menu.
TendownFourtytwo - I just tried this in Logic 9 but had to change it from a CAF file to an AIFF file. Seems as though the original sample is still the same too.
@sbholdo Yes, CAF is simply a new container format for aif files. It lifts the 2 GB file size limitation and adds a whole lot more possibilities in terms of tags. Basically in Logic 9 all current aif apple loops were converted to caf format - they are the same as the originals
for me this still doesnt work. no matter how i resave the file into wave it still doesn't give me the all clear on using functions. Any idea if there's some other option I've not selected?
thank you of this post, I had been pulling out my hair over the sample editor... New mantra...can't alter Apple loops..." Geez I've been a tool.....
