Logic 7.1 and MBox

Can someone help me make sense of this set up. I have a G4 1.67 Powerbook /with OS 10.3.9 and I'm trying to use it on the road with an MBox. It works fine with a Motu 828 that I have in the studio, but I can't seem to get it working with the Mbox. I installed the Digi Core Audio driver vs. 6.9 It works if I use it with Protools but when I launch Logic the Digi core audio manager says Not Connected (HW in use). Huh? As soon as I quit Logic. It shows connected. I apparently don't have the right settings in Logic. HEEELLLP.
P.S. - I have Digidesign HW (Mbox) selected in my Audio/Midi setup as default input and default output. Is that wrong?

David,
Thank you soooo much. After 3 days of tearing my hair out your post made me realize that the Digi Core Audio Manager was not launched before Logic. All this time I thought it was active becasue I'd launch it and see the Mbox. Then I'd Quit and open Logic. Duuuuuhhhhh........ You've made me a VERY HAPPY woman. I'm sure everyone knows the plight of saving up their hard earned dollars only to realize the piece of equipment you've gotten doesn;t work with your set up. LOL..

Audio recording using Logic and Mbox

Sirs,
I've to import vinyl using Logic and the Mbox (Digimedia) card. Does anyone have experience in such kind of operation?
Thanks in advance for your help.

No MBox, but I just patch my turntable into a phono preamp I bought at Radio Shack about 25 years ago (in order to have RIAA equalization) and the preamp outs into your interface and you can record like normal.

Logic Pro 9, Lion and Mbox 2 Pro Help please!

I now have an iMac running Lion and I upgraded to Logic 9. How do I get Logic to recognize my Mbox 2 Pro (preferably without installing Pro Tools)?? Helllpp please!!? Do I need to download a driver to use the mbox, is it a setting thing??

How to work with Logic Express 8 and Garageband 11 v.6.0.4?

I just installed Logic Express 8 and I don't know what it's done to my existing Garageband files - they seem to have been overwritten into Logic folders. I don't seem to be able to open them in either program. I'm sure there are answers buried in the files here, but I'd appreciate a quick How To, please! Can't work.

You need more to be sure the Digidesign core audio drivers are installed for your MBox, which are separate from the firmware upgrade.
A standalone installer for the OS X (10.4) drivers can be found at:
http://www.digidesign.com/index.cfm?langid=100&navid=54&itemid=24268
While I'm glad to hear you're using Logic, your iMac should have no problem running ProTools LE. The current version, 7.3, has universal binary support for the new intel Macs .... dependign on the version you have, though, you may need to pay a small amount to upgrade to 7.3 The updaters for 7.3 also include the core audio driver package I mentioned above, and the ProTools LE 7.3 updaters can be found at:

HT5421 Logic Pro 8 and OS 10.8.2 ?

Hi there, I want to installed Logic Pro 8 ( an upgrade version ) on my Macbook Pro with OS 10.8.2 and when I click on the installer on the DVD, the message is : You can’t open the application “LogicStudio.mpkg” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. Is that mean that it is no compatible ? what can I do ? Thanks.

I had this issue as well.
Check your Logic 8 packaging and see if you see "Universal Binary" written on the back or spine of the box.
Logic 8 in later releases was both PowerPC and Intel supported. However I get the error "cannot run PowerPC applications" on OS 10.8 on my new MacBookPro.
The cause of this is most likely that the installer was a PowerPC application, and Apple assumed at the time you could just run Rosetta for the installation.
Solution: install Logic 8 on an older Mac, run a Timemachine backup of your mac, then plug your Timemachine harddrive into your new mac and run Migration Assistant (Under Utilties)
Works perfect, even the plugins and Apple Loops carry over. It works 100% perfectly good. If you have the "Universal Binary" version there is no need to buy Logic 9.
I wasn't really "wow'd" with the new features of 9 and thought I would hold off until 10 to upgrade. This was 3 years ago. I still use Logic but it's amazing how cutting edge it used to be, and how far Pro Tools and Cubase and FL studio have come in the mean time.
Hope this helps

Logic Pro 9 and GarageBand '11 won't recognize MIDI controllers

Hi there,
I have two MIDI controllers that are not getting picked up by Logic or Garage Band and I'm unable to figure out why. I'm running Mac OS 10.9.4 (Mavericks) on a Mac Mini with a 250 GB SSD and 4 GB of RAM.
Setup 1 is a simple Acorn Masterkey 49 USB controller whose manufacturer claims needs no drivers, although it doesn't show up in my Audio/MIDI setup pane at all, no matter how many times I restart the computer and/or the controller in any combination. I can't use it with Logic or with Garage Band.
Setup 2 is a Digi002 Rack connected to the Mac Mini by Firewire and connected to an old-school Korg M1 as a MIDI controller. I can launch and hear the tracks I've made in the past with Logic, but now that Korg M1 is invisible even though the Core Audio Manager says my Digi002 Rack is connected and running. This setup has really never been able to speak with Garage Band, although I have been able to connect it successfully in the past.
I'm a newbie to this and don't know how to get under the hood to fine-tune MIDI set-ups within Logic or GarageBand. Is there something funky going on between Logic 9 and Mavericks, however? I'm beginning to wonder if that's the issue.
With thanks,
Dustin.

Hi Dustin,
Nice to see someone pose a complete question with all the details...
First thing to do would be to delete Logic's preferences and the control surface preferences. Although I don't think it's going to help. I'll post the method at the end of this post.
One of the problem with older MIDI devices is that Apple changed something in their MIDI spec and some older MIDI devices either don't work (not recognized) or if they are recognized don't work reliably. Another problem, depending on ho old your Mac Mini is, the newer machines have USB 3.0 ports and that poses another hurdle.
Here's two things to try for the Acorn.
Turn the computer off, unplug the Acorn's USB cable. Restart the MacMini and let it settle for a couple of minutes, open Audio-MIDI Setup... plug the Acorn in, see if there's and life.
Try a powered USB 2.0 USB Hub, a hub that has it's own power supply. If you don't have one maybe you can borrow one as it's only a -possible- solution.
The Problem with the M! and Digi002 may be related. Are you using the very latest drivers available for the 002? Again, this may be a MIDI compatibility problem, although I thought this was USB only, I suspect it's more of a Digi002 driver issue with Mavericks than anything else.
MIDI Out on the M1 to MIDI IN on the 002
Delete the Logic 9 preferences file and control surfaces file.
In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
Press the Go button.
Remove the com.apple.logic.pro.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro User Manual for details on how to do this.
If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro. then delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
Be sure to include the Tilde~ in the path name above, be sure and delete both files.

Logic 9 crashed and won't open again

Hello everyone,
I have the latest Logic Pro 9 and I'm working on a MacBook Pro
2.7 ghz
4 gigs memory.
Started recording a track with midi and audio tracks,
At one point logic crashed so I reopened it and kept recording.
Everything was fine,then I shut my computer down and opened
It again and it started searching for my battery drums which are all in the correct folder.
After a few battery drum searches it just stays there trying to load ??!
No more dialog messages ?
I have never ever had an issue with either logic or my MacBook Pro.
I try to open up early saves and sometimes it opens but not all the time.
Anyone having the same issue ??
Also since my system crashed I opened a fresh logic and dragged and dropped all the midi and audio files to a brand new project and I'm still having the same issue,it won't fully load up ?
I'm starting to wonder if battery is messing with the computer ?
The only fix I found was to shut down the computer and start it up again and then it loads sometimes ??
Any advice would be helpful,
Thank you

It seems you have a corrupted Project so to rescue most of the data from this corrupted project you can open a new project and then use the Import Data feature of Logic to bring across the tracks from your corrupted project... to this new Project

When I totally close eyetv and reopen eyetv and open a live tv window the closed captioning comes back. I never noticed this with os leopard, Just after i installed os snow leopard. All software is up to date only I think, thanks to apple they droped support for logic express. Thanks for any suggestions.

Does toggling CC off & back on bring it back?
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

Apple Has no information about my ID that I purchased Logic-Pro9 with. and they can not even send me an e-mail to reset my PW. t

i have a late 2006 20" imac and have been recording some covers and have been able to find canastas (solos). i made sacrifices to purchase apps with an ID for years. I left to colorado and found work at venues i had send my demos to. when i got back home my house had been broken into and much of my studio gear had been vandalized beyond repair. i did not have a firmware password set on my mac and the derelects stole and deleted work related information. i called the people at mac and they told me that they did not have any information that my ID was not on any of their files and had never even been created. today i created a new ID. How am i going to get back all the number of purchases i made especially Logic Pro 9 and the other apps back as they now have been upgraded when apple does not even have an ink mark from my old ID? i use a Focusrite 12 channel interface with a 6 channel xenyx with 48 phantom and since all my originals can't be number one's my Americana recordings have some very profound grooves. I am 53 yrs. old and play all the instruments except the bass lines. These phatos that destroyed many of my archives are muncho malo! i started on the kit in the 3rd grade and started playing behind some big names at 13. Over the years most all of the other basic instruments kept making it easier for me to survive at what ever the venue called for. i never gave up the music for the show. After a gratuitous 40 yrs. of dedication and 34 yrs. of a solid marriage. i am a loyal dog. i can only feel better if the folks at apple will allow me to redownload with my new ID to keep producing. IF not i will have to bow my way out of college since that is my only way i have been able to afford my out of district tuition.

Whew, so sorry to hear Jimmy.

How do I send my BMP info from logic to pedals and keys?

How do I send my BMP info from logic to pedals and keys?
Is it possible to sync my logic bmp with my microkorg so that my korg automatic will sync with the BMP from logic?

I'm not faniliar with the Micro, but logic outputs mtc and midi clock. The serttings are under project settings/synchronization. You'll have to set the Micro to external sync and be sending midi info from your computer to the Micro. Then if you hit play or record in Logic, the micro will chase it.

In LSMW while executing the specify file step logical file name and path.

Hi ,
In LSMW , while executing the specify file step, logical file name and path is mandatory field to entry, but in some of other LSMW objects, these fields are not mandatory one, i want to know is it possible for me to do hide the logical file name and path field in specify file step.
thanks
Md nisar

Hi,
For some Transactions while executing the Specify file step Logical File and Logical Path are mandatory.
In this case Converted file will be stored in the application server. According to the specified Logical File and Logical path.
Hope this will help you....

Logical Database design and physical database implementation

Hi
I am an ORACLE DBA basically and we started a proactive server dashboard portal ,which basically reports all aspects of our infrastructure (Dev,QA and Prod,performance,capacity,number of servers,No of CPU,decomissioned date,OS level,Database patch level) etc..
This has to be done entirely by our DBA team as this is not externally funded project.Now i was asked to do " Logical Database design and physical Database
implementation"
Even though i know roughly what's that mean(like designing whole set of tables in star schema format) ,i have never done this before.
In my mind i have a rough set of tables that can be used but again i think there is lot of engineering involved in this area to make sure that we do it properly.
I am wondering you guys might be having some recommendations for me in the sense where to start?are there any documents online , are there any book on this topic?Are there any documents which explain this phenomena with examples ?
Also exactly what is the difference between logical database design vs physical database implementation
Thanks and Regards

Logical database design is the process of taking a business or conceptual data model (often described in the form of an Entity-Relationship Diagram) and transforming that into a logical representation of that model using the specific semantics of the database management system. In the case of an RDBMS such as Oracle, this representation would be in the form of definitions of relational tables, primary, unique and foreign key constraints and the appropriate column data types supported by the RDBMS.
Physical database implementation is the process of taking the logical database design and translating that into the actual DDL statements supported by the target RDBMS that will create the database objects in a target RDBMS database. This will generally include specific physical implementation details such as the specification of tablespaces, use of specialised indexing (bitmap, clustered etc), partitioning, compression and anything else that relates to how data will actually be physically stored inside the database.
It sounds like you already have a physical implementation? If so, you can reverse engineer this implementation into a design tool such as SQL Developer Data Modeller. This will create a logical design by examining the contents of the Oracle data dictionary. Even if you don't have an existing database, Data Modeller is a good tool to use as a starting point for logical and even conceptual/business models.
If you want to read anything about logical design, "An Introduction to Database Systems" by Date is always a good starting point. "Database Systems - A Practical Approach to Design, Implementation and Management" by Connolly & Begg is also an excellent reference.
