Hello Murray,
ExsManager *PC* is an old, unsupported project. Back in the time it 
could handle the existing libraries with no problems, but in the past 3 
years libraries have become more and more complex (Michiel did a really 
great job i think), and the internal structure of ExsManager PC simply 
can't handle this complexity. Just as a note, the OSX version has been 
redesigned from scratch and has not this kind of "complexity problems".

I would try this: once you load the instrument in Exs24  (and it might 
be painfully slow the first time), open the editor, select all zones, 
then use the "zones/update selected file zone info from files"  menu 
item (should be in PC version as well AFAIK)

Then save the instrument, quit logic.
Now restart Logic load the instrument and this time it should play 
correctly...
