Sound from Xiosynth into Logic

Can anyone tell me how to get sound out of Novation Xiosynth into Logic? It works fine as a midi controller, so should I do something in the environment to get it work properly? My audio interface is M-Audio Firewire Audiophile.
G5 2x2Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

In order to get the sound of your external midi keyboard or synth back into logic for mixing you have a couple of choices
an audio input object
or the External plug in
Input Object
create an audio object in your audio Layer of your environment, and in the objects parameter box to the left assign it to be a input object. You can assign Inputs for all of your audio interfaces inputs if you like but assign this one to be whatever inputs your keyboard or synth is connect to, make it mono or stereo your choice. Now on the input objects channel strip, assign the outputs to your main outs going to your speakers. Now you can monitor and mix your synths sound right in logic along with other audio
External Plug-in
you are use to using an audio instrument track to sequence midi to send to Logic’s Instruments (ESX24 etc.). You can also use and instrument track to send midi to your outboard synth as well by using the External plug-in, which is found in the same menu with Logic’s instruments. this only works well when you are planning to use only one of the sounds in your keyboard, but the cool thing is that you can use all of Logic’s cool plug ins like verbs, compressors etc. for your outboard midi synth, just like Logic’s instruments
for further sound shaping of your sounds you may want to record each midi channel separately as audio. Since you already have it connected and are using an input object to monitor, solo the midi track you want to record, assign an audio track to receive the input from the keyboard, record enable it and hit record.

  • Pasting from Sibelius into Logic Pro?

    Is it possible to copy a score from Sibelius and into Logic?

    Hi Chet,
    it's probably hard as Sibelius belongs to Avid (Digidesign- Protools).
    peace,

    Ps: Anyway, I would like it better to import Finale! : ) or dynamics and articulations from the Logic score could change settings... like on those notation programs.

  • How to import a MP3 file song from iTunes into Logic 9?

    How do i import an MP3 music file from iTUNES into a recording project in LOGIC PRO 9?
    What type of recording trac needs to be used or enabled? Audio Trac or Software Instrument trac?
    I cannot find this task listed in the Apple Pro Training book for Logic 9.
    Thank you.

    Have you tried simply dragging and dropping the actual audio file using Finder... into the arrange window? Make sure you drop it into either a blank space in the arrange area or onto an Audio track. When you drop the Audio file into a blank area, Logic will automtically create an Audio track for it...
    This is how I normally do it without issue...

  • How do I use my own sounds from computer in logic?

    Hello,
    Ok so I'm working with the most recent update of Logic Pro X and I'm having the issue of using my own sounds that i already have inside of a new project on logic. I have a bunch of snares and things already on my computer and I wanted to use them in the software. I know that dragging them into the software doesn't achieve much. I am trying to use them through my maschine mikro. My maschine is already set up as a controller for Logic. My description may be a bit hazy, and if so I'm sorry.

    There are several references to this problem ... and some ideas.   Always a good place to look.   Don't overlook the links within the posts.

  • Recording from turntables into logic?

    DJs! or anyone else that knows... i want to record a mix onto my laptop from vinyl turntables. ie about 60 mins worth. is logic stable enough to handle recording straight into it for this long? or can anyone recommend a free recording application to do this. doesn't matter how simple it is as i can edit it after - it just needs to not crash. most of the ones on the net seem to charge which seems crazy because i used to have a decent free one back on OS9!
    thanks all...

    should be fine..
    Just adjust your maximum recording time by hitting "a" (audio/set audio record path)

  • Recording Audio from Keyboard into Logic

    Hey,
    I am new at Logic and trying to figure out how to get the songs from my keyboard onto Logic. Could someone please help me out?
    Logic 8
    Fast Track Audio Interface
    Korg Triton
    Mixer
    Thanks!

    logic1080 wrote:
    That helped. Now the audio from my keyboard and computer run through the mixer.
    Still no signal in logic when I press a key on the keyboard though. Is there a special setting in logic I should be in?
    Go to *Logic Pro>Preferences>Audio>Core Audio>Devices>* select Fast Track as the input device
    Also, I only really got strong signal from the keyboard into the Fast Track interface when I previously plugged a 1/4 mono from the L/R Output of the Triton into the Guitar 1/4 mono slot of the audio interface.
    I can't understand why they should build an Audio Interface that has only 1 mono Input ,I think this can accept stereo signals depending on the jack you plug-in...but that's just me Check the manual.
    Does the Audio Interface has a control panel or something...like most of them?(You could find it in Applications)
    What selections can you make there?
    Do you think the problem is where the RCAs are located? The line outputs of the Fast Track are connected to "7L 8R" on the mixer and the ones connected to 1/4 mono cable are in "Rec Out"
    Here you mean 1/4 mono (Instrument) to the *Rec Out* of the Mixer ...yes that's fine.
    Note: When I press a key on my keyboard I get signal in the mixer. It's just not in Logic or the audio interface.
    Can you hear what the Triton's playing on the speakers?
    If not turn up the volume on the channel you have the Triton connected and the Stereo Out ...make sure that the Gain level is not too high on the Triton channel (a red light below the Gain pot will illuminate when it is )
    Have you turned the Gain knob labeled instrument on top of your audio interface...clockwise?
    Check Logic's Audio Preferences to make sure that you have the Fast Track selected as the *Input Device*
    And supposedly that is a mono input ,you make sure that the Audio track you have created in Logic is a mono track(1 circle instead of two indicating a stereo) and you have enabled the record button for that track......
    Thanks!
    No probs...

  • No sound from headphones in Logic. Read through many posts already.

    Hello,
    I can't seem to find a solution anywhere. Trying to record vocals. I am running a Logic Pro 8 with a Presonus firewire sound card. I have my headphones hooked up to my soundcard... when I open Logic everything seems to work fine, Logic seems to be recording sound. I can't hear myself in the headphones and can't playback with any sound. It looks like it's playing back thou. I have chosen my device to Presonus in the Logic preferences option. I also went into my system preferences to set the device to Presonus. It said that "the selected device has no output controls" same for the input. I can't think of anything else. Can someone please help :)))) PLEASE

    Ok so I figured it out :)))))))) I am fairly new but I created a new audio track and chose output 3-4 instead of 1-2. Works great.

  • Why can't I drag and drop my own songs and clips from itunes into logic express?

    I have been on the road for 8 months and now I can't use my own stuff in logic express?
    <Edited by Host>

    Hello Rocksinger99,
    Before we go into the why you are not able to copy your iTunes content to an external hard drive, what is the purpose of copying the content there? The reason I ask is because there are different scenarios that may be done differently. So if you just want to move the media off your internal hard drive, then look at the first article to walk you through how to just move the media folder by using iTunes to start the transfer. If you are copying the media to move it to another computer, then check the format of the external hard drive and make sure that it is formatted for Mac. Take a look at the last two for information on finding out the format as well as steps to get it formatted for Mac. Let me know what you find out.

  • Clock output from TRITON into Logic

    I had tried many ways to get Logic to slave or master to my Roland 1680 and in the end it was a 50 sec (or something like that) offset for SYMPTE (in the Logic song/sync window) that I had to change to 0:0:0 then everything worked. And yes all the correct rules of Midi applied - set Korg to send out MTC, set Logic to receive in that song/synchronizations window and hit the button.
    I also had to make a custom setting on my Motu Micro Express to route the Midi signal correctly.

  • How do I deliver sound from mixer into other applications without latency?

    I've got a mixer delivering audio into my Thunderbolt port. I want to take the mixed audio, on channels 15 and 16, and input those into VOIP app and video recording apps. I'm using LineIn and Soundflower to accomplish this. However, LineIn is adding in a lot of latency which is a big problem for the kinds of recordings I'm doing.
    What are professionals out there using to minimize this latency?

    I have the same problem as Ham. I can't see the context menu for sound.
    I saw that context menu in the video that Sudarshan mentioned, but it's not in my Photoshop CS6, where - like Ham experienced - i only see a context menu for Motion.
    Just as Ham, i do see the sound context menu at the beginning of my work. I even got to clips in a project where one clip offers sound editing, the other doesn't.
    Clips where sound can be edited appear as a blue bar. Clips where sound cannot be edit appear as a violet bar. Even if i add an MP3, it appears as a violet bar, so sound cannot be edited while motion editing is offered. I also tried to dampen the sound via the opacity control in the layer panel, but it didn't work.
    I already created a complicated project out of 6 clips. I can't restart now to edit audio before anything else.
    Is there any way to get audio editing (in the limited way that's part of Photoshop CS6 sometimes) in ALL clips within a project?
    Thanks!

  • Can't get automation data from RMX into Logic

    I'm usinga tutorial that shows a simple way to use the RMX interfaceto write automation data to the master channel using RMX as a multitimbral instrument. It shows that you simply put the track in touch mode, engage play, and then move things on the RMX mixer. I can't get it to work this way. What am I forgetting?

    Funny this is coming up, I'm doing this right now.
    Try this:
    Instantiate a mulit RMX on instrument 1. Create a multi instrument object in the environment. Don't cable it to RMX yet.
    Create a transformer object. Double click the transformer. Okay here we go, follow close:
    Under "Conditions" enter
    Status = Control
    Channel All
    -1- = 7
    -2- All
    Under "Operations" enter
    Fix Fader
    Fix 2
    Scale 1.0000 2
    Thru
    Now you'll see three black vertical lines in the middle. Click the middle line twice. This will cause you to have:
    1st line: Vertical
    2nd line: Starts at top of first line and goes diagnally down
    3rd line: Vertical
    That's if you want the Logic volume sliders to control the RMX volume sliders in RMX's mixer page. You have to cable it with the multi instrument to make it work...that's down below. Don't check "Filter Duplicate Events".
    Here's the way to change the pan:
    New transformer:
    Under "Conditions":
    Status = Control
    Channel All
    -1- = 10
    -2- = All
    Under "Operations":
    Fix Fader
    Fix 2
    Scale 1.0000 10
    Thru
    Now Logics pan pot on the RMX multi controls the pan on the RMX Mixer page.
    Now cable the multi-instrument object you created the first transformer, and then that transformer to the next, and then that transformer to instrument one. You're set!
    Ok, now why does this work? I mostly understand it...
    On Instrument 2, put a multi RMX plugin on. Now in the environment, create a monitor object. Cable Instrument 1 to the monitor object (don't cable the monitor object to Instrument 1, won't work).
    Now with the environment page and monitor object still in view, open the plugin RMX on Instrument 2. Go to the mixer page. Move the volume slider for multi 1. You'll see some data show up in the monitor. Here's what it means (sort of):
    You'll see something like:
    2 2 92
    2 2 91
    I'll start by saying that the last number is just the volume value. Move the fader and it changes accordingly. So this number isn't important for this example.
    The first number, 2, is related to RMX as an instrument. That's the 2 in:
    "Operations"
    Fix Fader
    Fix 2 <---------
    The next number is associated with multi one's volume slider in RMX. That's it's number. If you move multi 2's volume fader, you'll see:
    2 3 91
    2 3 95
    And for multi 3's volume fader in RMX:
    2 4 91
    2 4 92
    So that's why we get this:
    "Operations"
    Scale 1.0000 <----- because we're moving in incriments of 1, RMX Multi 1 had 2 as a second number in the monitor, RMX Multi 2 had 3 as a second number in the monitor, RMX Multi 3 had 4 as it's second number in the monitor
    and then:
    "Operations"
    Scale 1.0000 2 <-------because the first fader, multi 1, STARTS on 2.
    Okay, so that's what the monitor tells us. You can delete that monitor object now, or keep it there if you want to control other RMX values with Transformers.
    So now the other parts....here's where I'm guessing, anyone can chime in here and correct me...
    Under "Conditions"
    Status = Control <-----because you're going to control the desired RMX fader/pot with your input of a continuous controller #.
    Under "Conditions"
    Channel All <---don't know why, but it is.
    Under "Conditions"
    -1- = 7 <------- That "7" is the continuous controller number of the volume sliders on the multi instrument channels in Logic. Here are other useful ones I've found in creating the mega autoload:
    10 = pan knob on Logic multi inst
    91 = reverb knob on Logic multi inst (i use this to control the amount of Aux 1 FX on any given RMX mutli. As a side note, RMX Aux 1 is:
    "Operations"
    Scale 5.0000 35
    And then the subsequent Aux 2 is 36, Aux 3 is 37, and so on)
    93 = chorus knob on Logic multi inst (I use this for Aux 2 FX)
    74 = Frequency knob on Logic multi inst (i use this for Aux 3 FX, although you have to slam it to the left for 0, because it defaults in the center like a pan pot).
    As for this:
    "Conditions"
    -2- All <------
    And this:
    "Operations
    Thru <--------which is right below the -2- All
    I think because we're not using those to change and "Transform" values, you just leave them the way they are.
    Hope this helps! I'm sure more can be added by the genius dudes who roam these parts...

  • No sound from reason to logic

    ok i really need help with this.
    ive followed like 9 different tutorials all basicly saying the same thing and i cant get this to work at all. Im using logic pro v7.1.0 and reason v2.5
    ive set up my environment and tracks to send midi and recieve audio, when i play my notes in logic it is sending to reason and im showing reason having audio on the master faders but i cant get logic to recieve any audio back on the tracks that i have set to recieve rewire master l/r.
    any help?

    I GOT ITTT!!!!!!
    so apparently when you make a new audio object and your selecting "RW: Mix L" there are 2 of them! when i scrolled down for a while I found another one, i think maybe the top of those along with RW buses are for ableton live maybe?
    I cant remember if in your tutorial you mentioned more than one set of these channel options but it might be worth saying something about it. this seriously ruined the last 2 hours of my life. especially my friend laughing at me at how easy it was in cubase to rewire reason making my logic manhood feel very bruised. haha

  • Anyone ever downloaded  software from Zoom  to  allow import  into  logic?

    I wanted to have a "ghost" intro on a new logic song-- basically the outro of a song mastered on my old ZOOM MRS 8. (Don't want to re-create the whole panoply of sound from scratch in logic) Zoom's website makes it sound simple by downloading their software. Anyone done this before? Pointers?

    Every now and again, these forums need a bad guy and I guess it's my turn in the barrel...
    Had you searched for 10.4.9, you would have found 22 pages - yes, TWENTY-TWO pages of previous entries on this topic. I have to say it's no surprise that nobody's jumped in to help you. We're all heartily sick of this topic and what the recent change has had on our beatified application.
    Perhaps spend a little time searching old threads and find out what has already been said 200 times.
    With that - best of luck :o)
