I can't even load the samples in EII format from an external drive from the EMU II GUI. I try with the .EII butonm but nothing happens when I double click on them. But if I manually place the folders with the EII files in the same folder where Arturia's samples are, then it does work and it loads at the same time all the samples from an instrument. I use Windows 10 and Reaper, I don't know if it depends on the DAW because I know that some people are able to load the EII instruments selecting them with the EII button even if they are in an external drive. It just does not work in my system.
And I have the same problem in Arturia Pigments: if I want to use external wavetables I must place the folder in Program Data/Arturia/Samples, otherwise it will not work.
Arturia people, please fix this.
