Audio Track Recording (Armed) button plays a midi sound when it flashes red

Hard to explain but when I click the "R" Record/arm button on an Audio track it makes a sound through my midi device (my keyboard) in time to the flashing of the red light.
I've just installed an RME Fireface 800 and I'm using the MIDI interface to connect this to my keyboard and use through Logic
Does anyone know how to turn this off? When I actually start recording it eventually turns itself off, so it only happens when I arm the track.

it sounds like logic is trying to send midi to a control surface telling it to display the record light. I'd check in the control surface setup window and see what's there.

  • Can you use midi sounds when recording videos on Photobooth?

    Can you use midi sounds when recording videos on Photobooth?
    Basically, i like to record videos of me singing and playing guitar or keyboard, but to get a good sound for the keyboard I'd like to be able to record the audio using MIDI sounds...
    Ive got Logic, I've got M-Audio Fast Track Pro, into which i have my mic, guitar, and keyboard midi plaugged into. I can use it to record the mic and guitar on photobooth as they are audio inputs, however i can't use the midi sounds on the keyboard :/ I have tried having logic open with the desired MIDI sound selected whilst recording but it doesnt work...
    Is there ANY way this is possible?
    HELP PLEASE!
    Thanks!

    I Have just the same problem, if I shout very near the microphone i can just hear something, did you manage to solve the problem?

  • Midi and Audio tracks simultaneously armed for recording

    All, whilst engaged in laying down the bass track for the guitar solo section of my latest monster his, I encountered one of those sorts of frustrations that makes one long for some means of swift egress from this mortal coil, this vale of tears: that is, while laying down my totally awesome bass track that when they hear it will send JP Jones and Boosty Collins to employee as actuaries, I kept getting the hateful "unable to synchronize the audio and midi error." I'll spare you the catalog of the various lame attempts I understood to remedy this problem, as well as the curses directed toward my fate, and Daw ineptitude in general. Then I nnoticed that both the software instrument tracks (Addictive drums) and the audio track (aforementioned bass) were both armed for recording, signified by the red R in the track header! Well, upon de-arming the software instrument track I was able to record by bass line in a mimimum of takes, and as visions of illegal intozicants and comen of questionable morals dance through my noggin as recompsense for my trouble, with to make the point to all relative newbies such as myself that the answer to problems that seem on surface intractable as usually staring you right in the glazed eyeball.

    What?...
    I'm sorry maybe I don't understand everything you are sayng... but I can replay to the titles of the Topic!
    Actually recording a MIDI instrument and an Audio Track symultaneously comes with serious bug!!!
    you cannot use Punch-in on Fly when an Audio and instrument track is armed at the same time...
    or better you can but the MIDI and audio output will be dropped for a moment
    Provide a Logic feedback

    THIS IS A LOGIC 8 BUG!!! BIGGEST SERIOUS BUG!
    I suggest you to use Logic 7 when you need that!
    Thank you so much for remember me this..
    I'm sorry no alternative solution... or.. if you have 2 Macs you can use one for Logic MIDI and another one for Logic Audio!

  • Audio track recording with 2 MIDI devices on Channel Spitter

    I now have a turn table set running through XLR cables into an M-Audio interface, and than into a USB Hub which runs into the MacG5.
    I've got the Channel Splitter Track hooked up, and I am now tryin to record 2 MIDI Devices and an Audio track (from turntables) at the same time. Is this possible ?
    I've gone into the Audio Drivers and Hardware window and messed around but with no success. Do you have any advice for me ?
    I am very new to this so step by step would help alot. Thankyou.

    I've tried that, and what happens is the Instr track is picked up and recorded but I'm getting nothing from the audio track.
    It seems that the Logic wants to read the devices one at a time. Meaning, I can get it to read the audio interface but not the Midi, or the Midi and no audio. It will not read both at the same time. ( when Logic is picking up the audio interface I can see that it's getting a signal from my midi devices but I'm getting no sound, and nothing is being recorded from the midi devices).
    I have a feeling that I've done something wrong in the Audio Hardware and Drivers window.
    Thankyou again for your time, I'm detirmined to learn this system. You've been a big help.

  • Midi instrument to audio track recording prob.

    Im Trying to record a midi (instrument) track to an audio track. I have created the sound using the FM8 synth... There is one parameter on FM8 that wont record automation (morph grid) so to get the effect I need to record it in as a real audio file. So I bus the instrument track out to bus 1, then i take the audio track and make that audio bus 1... levels seem to come up yet for some reason when i record it doesnt record anything despite there seeming to be a level coming up.. any suggestions? Ive been searching the manual for hours

    I was afraid that was the case...Thankyou for taking note of the performance issue and answering my real question, cuz i have an automation problem which im told is a bug and have a work around for now but still no live automation and if i do live auto. it will record it but i cant hear any of the old automation as im doing it making it kinda useless at many times... but anyways.... so it appears as my two options are to re-route it out externally (but then wont that still only leave me one real pass of automation via midi) cuz if i am still able to modulate the regular audio via live in on the synth using the audio... then that would work... but Im still not sure if i would be able to record the audio file on a midi track (ill have to try that unless someone knows)... if that were the case then i could just bounce the file to audio and modulate everything using the synths as effects?? do you know if they can do that on Native instrument synths?

  • Audio attached to Submit button plays at start of slide

    I created a text box with a submit button. When someone types
    in their response and clicks submit, text feedback appears and an
    audio clip explains the answer. I attached the audio to the submit
    button, but when I review the project it plays as soon as the slide
    appears, not after the question is answered. It doesn't show up in
    the timeline, but plays when I go into the Audio tab of the submit
    button. As an aside, the audio on both the success and failure
    feedback will be the same. Does this make a difference? Should I
    attach audio to the f/b captions?
    Any ideas on how to fix this?
    PS - Captiv8er -- you've been so kind with giving everyone
    (me) help! Thx!

    Hi Lisa
    Good job! You seem to have already figured this out, but on
    the outside chance it may help others, here is my own general
    guide.
    Think about when you see the objects you are attaching audio
    to. Typically, that's when you will hear the audio. At the same
    time you actually see the object. In this case, while you certainly
    see the feedback caption in edit mode, you don't actually see it
    appear until after the button was clicked. So you correctly
    intuited that you should assign the audio to the feedback caption!
    Good on ya! Rick

  • Playing Keyboard through MIDI, while song is playing-lagging MIDI sound!

    I'm trying to record a song from my MIDI keyboard, and I need to have the song playing while I record, but when the song is playing, the MIDI keyboard's sound delays by about 2-3 seconds, and it distorts the sound bit. Is there a way to fix this? please help!

    Hey, thanks for replying!
    I think it's data triggering, and I've a MIDI USB powered A-800 pro plugged in. I have the MIDI set up as a buzz synth or something, and I inserted a song from itunes to play, and the song worked well, but while the song was playing, I can't play through the MIDI..well I can, but it's just really laggy. So I was searching through the settings, and I clicked "reduce MIDI data transmission" or something, and then the MIDI controller worked perfectly, but then the song wouldn't play at all. I really have no idea why its not working. I may have, while I was searching, clicked something that messed it up. And just to reiterate, if it's important, I saw to circles overlapping each other (like a venn diagram) next to the song title.

  • Audio tracks don't show up properly on sequence when enlarging timeline

    On the timeline, audio tracks don't show up properly, by either appearing out of sync or by repeating itself when I enlarge it to work on it. Other sequences in the project work fine, and I've tried coping a pasting this sequence or parts of it to a new one and I still have the problem. Attached below is an example of the problem. This sequence is about 40 minutes long.  Thanks for any help. Lucian

    Is it the same if you uncheck the rectified audio box?

  • How do I set up Siri to play an alert sound when she reminds me of something?

    When I ask Siri to remind me of something when I leave work (using the locator system) she only vibrates.  If I use the reminder app instead (using a time like 5:00pm), it plays the alert sound and vibrates since I have it set up that way in settings.  I can't see anything in settings that is just for Siri.  I have an iphone 5.

    Hi Bharadwaj,
    Thankyou for your reply! Yes that's exactly the behaviour I am after! I have replicated your file, but mine is not quite behaving the same way. Once you play button 1, and then 2, and then click button one again, button 2 animation plays on top of the button 1 animation. How did you prevent this from happening in your file? I cant see anything different.
    Here are my files http://adobe.ly/ZUTIpr

  • My macbook air doesnt play voice audio tracks in movies. I can hear sound effects and music. In VLC and Itunes.

    I opened up multiple video players and multiple movie files. MP4 and MKV. They work fine on my macbook pro but on my air I can only hear the music and sound effects, the voice track doesnt sound. The movie files are one file only no dts or surround option. Im pretty stumped.

    Hi, Julian,
    I can't even find the instructions for it in the GB Help File
    That's because it's an undocumented feature.
    Here's a link that describes it:

  • Videos won't play until fully loaded when using Flash Player

    Hello,
    When I try to play videos using flash player, it usually takes a very long time for them to start playing, because they do not start until the entire video is loaded. However, disabling flash player and using something like Quicktime allows me to start watching a video once enough of it has buffered.
    I'm currently using Windows 7 x64, and it happens across browses (Firefox, Chrome, IE). I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling the latest version of Flash player several times, but no luck. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    How video is played is determined from the content/server, not flash player itself.  Are you seeing this happen with YouTube?

  • How do you record an external Midi Instrument + Software instrument track down to a combined Audio track ?

    I have two piano sounds I'm trying to blend into one. One is an external MIDI module set up as an external instrument within Logic and the other is a software plugin instrument (Ivory II). I'm trying to record the blended pianos into a single audio track so I can ditch the midi track and more so the CPU intense software Instrument track (it's killing my setup....). For the life of me I can't figure out how to assign both these entities as inputs and get them to record simultaneosuly onto an audio track.
    My setup is a Presonus Studiolive 16.4.2 with the following assignments:
    The external MIDI module's audio output is routed stereo directly into channel strips 9 and 10. By default the firewire output of this channel strip is returned to firewire outputs 9-10 on the studiolive, but this really doesn't matter since recorded audio is being monitored thru the main output buss assigned to channels 17 and 18.
    My software plugin (Ivory II) is routed to output channels 17 and 18 which is the default setting for routing the output to the master buss for the Presonus.
    On my audio track that's setup in Logic I can assign the inputs to 9 and 10 and I get the external midi module's output to record, but I cannot find any way to get the software instruments output into this mix because there is no input assignment for this.
    Is there any way to combine these two entities and assign them to record onto a single audio track or am I missing something here? If there's no simple way to do this, can somebody offer any tip or ideas on how to accomplish the same thing here. I really need to ditch the software plugin. My setup only seems to be able to handle one plug in at a time on the software instrument side. Not sure why that is because my setup is not that old and the memory on my MBP is maxed out at 4GB....but that's another topic of discussion
    Any suggenstions would be much appreciated...

    Thanks for the reply....
    I actually tried freezing the software instrument track and that had little if no effect on CPU. I then read in the book or somewhere that the freeze function really only works on effect plugins. Don't know if that's true in all cases, but that seems to be what's happening.  Still would like to combine these tracks and I'm guessing I'm going to have to get creative with bussing or subgroups to make this happen. Unfortunately I think the fact that my Presonus board has hardmapped output routings for all the inputs makes that difficult, but haven't actually tried yet. I'm thinking if I can reroute the midi modules audio output input into the Presonus to a subgroup and then route the software instrument plug in to the same subgroup that I can then mix/capture this and hopefully route the audio's input to the subgroup to pick up the mix.
    Does this make sense to anybody reading this?
    We'll see and I'll post the results if it works....
    thanks...b
