Audio Unit Problem with Logic Pro and Mainstage

When I go to launch my apps, both Logic Pro and Mainstage get stuck loading an AppleAUspeechsynthesis or something along those lines. It never makes it past there and I either have to force quit or it quits itself. I can press control while launching Logic Pro, but then I only get basic MIDI. I just tried an archive and install and I'm in the process of reinstalling Logic Pro right now. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

I just tried pasting my crash report. It seems like it is too long to post?

Problem with Logic Pro and Soft eLicenser on Mountain Lion?

Hi!
I have a bunch of Arturia synths, which requires the Soft eLicenser to work. This has always worked great with Lion, never any problems with eLicenser (never had to open it etc.)
Now - I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and tested my synths to make sure everything was OK, experienced a bunch of problems, and did a full recovery to clean Mountain Lion.
After installing the Arturia synths, and adding my licenses, I installed Logic. Everything worked fine!
BUT!
When I closed an Arturia synth within Logic, or closed Logic after running a project with one of these synths, I couldn't reopen any of these synths within Logic afterwards - In fact, I couldn't open the stand-alones either! And when I tried to open the eLicenser Control Center, it would just say "Reading eLicensers" forever. After a reboot, everything is OK.
I can open and close eLicenser Control Center and standalone synths as many times as I want, as long as I don't open Logic, and then Arturia synths as an AU in Logic.
I found a workaround: Open the eLicenser Control Center, and let in run in the background (cmd+H), and then open Logic. Then I could open Arturia synths and close them, close Logic and reopen etc. without any problems at all. NO PROBLEMS.
Until I close the eLicenser Control Center, then I have to reboot to be able to start it again.
I hope you understand what I mean here. It's a bit hard to explain.
In short terms: Logic makes Soft eLicenser crash when a eLicenser synth has been opened as an AU.
The same problem is when scanning the AU with AU manager. eLicenser window should be open before scanning.
Does ANYBODY have the same problems? Can anyone who has these applications test it out?

So it definitely seems to be a issue with Logic.
I can't force this error in 10.7.X no matter how hard I try, but in 10.8.2 it's definitely Logic messing things up.
Could it be auvaltool which has a bug? Or is that only run with AU manager on validation?
Hopefully this discussion can get some attention, and maybe it could be corrected. I guess a lot of Logic Pro users also has eLicenser Control Center for validation of their products.

Logic pro and mainstage essential content installing problems

for 2 days now I have had Logic pro and mainstage essential contend down loading in a greyed out box with a moving stripy line in the centre, clearly it is downloading something but for 2 days? how can I get rid of it.

Thank you for the info I appreciate it! Was also wondering if the Drummer content downloads faster from Logic Pro X than from Garageband as the Drummer content downloads rather slowly from Garageband. And was figuring that since Logic Pro X is more expensive than Garageband perhaps the servers they use for Logic Pro X would be more faster than Garageband's but I'm just taking a wild guess

Logic Pro and Mainstage Bombing Out

I have a copy of Logic Studio 9 installed on my Late 2011 MacBook Pro. Everthing except Logic Pro and Mainstage 2 launch and work perfectly. When I click on Logic Pro, it just bounces in the dock a few times and quits out with an error dialog. Mainstage 2 launches to the loading page and then stalls. I have tried deleting Logic Pro and Mainstage and reinstalling from my discs, they still don't work. The thing is after the first installation attempt, the installer does not ask me for the serial number anymore. What should I do? I really need to use Logic Pro.

Did you run "Software Update" to get the latest version?

Will Lion work ok with Logic Pro and 3rd party plugins?

Will Lion OS work ok with Logic Pro and 3rd party plugins?
Any help would be much appreciated,
Regards James

Well, Sylenth I know... works under Logic Pro 9 and it should be found by left clicking and holding... the Software Insturment Button (The one just below where it says i/o and then scrolling down in the menu that appears to the Instrument section below the Apple Plugins...
I don't know about Massive 1.01 because i think that one is not Logic 9 compatible because it is so old.... and I have never used Vanguard... but according to it's specs the latest version should be found in the same place as Sylenth...
Both Sylenth and Vanguard are 32bit plugins...
...and.. it probably doesn't help that you are using older/not 'legal' copies of these plugins.... *ahem*

Is macmini enough for a musician that works with logic pro and 10 plugin softsynth at the same time?

I use to work with a music platform like garageband or logic pro and at the same time I am working with a lot of plugin software like toontrack, ik multimedia, musiclab, native instruments etc. On my PC which has the same specification as macmini i7 2.3GHz this was a big problem especially when I was selecting effects like reverb, chorus or compressor so I had to export tracks all the time. What is the minimum specs that I should have to work without any problem? Any help will be appreciated.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
For what you want the Mac, the Mac mini is OK. It has got a quad-core processor that will give you the performance you need and 4 GB of RAM that you can extend to 16 GB, apart from a removable hard drive.
The problem is the GPU, but as the applications you are going to use don't require the best GPU, it will work properly. If you want the Mac mini, go for it. An iMac may give you better performance, but the Mac mini is correct.
If you buy it from Apple, you have 14 days to return the Mac mini if it doesn't work correctly with the apps you need

Recording Audio For Timeline With Logic Pro In Real Time

I do commentaries on videos and was wondering if there is an easier way than what im doing now..
Right now I export my video from premiere to a bad quality version and import it into logic pro and record the commentary there.
Then I have to bounce the audio and import it back to premiere.
Is there a way to get the same plugins that are in logic pro to be used in premieres audio mixer??
A dream come true would be that I could just record directly into premiere with all of the effects coming from logic pro.
Anyone know of any kind of solution or trick or anything so I dont have to keep going back and forth and to make this easier???
Thanks for any info I really appreciate it!!

I just hate going back and forth from premiere and logic and all the extra time wasted exporting the files so they will work with eachother.
I just thought of something else.... Is there a way that I can get the video in premiere to play the same time I push record in logic pro and maybe sync with it?
Like if I push record in logic the video in premiere will start playing then when I push stop in logic pro it will stop in premiere or at least stay in sync with it so the timing will be right?
if anyone has any ideas throw some out there I would love to hear them.
Thanks!

Problem with Adobe Pro and Reader on terminal server

Hi,
We have have a Terminal Server environment with Adobe Pro and Reader. We have security for Adobe Pro, so only certain user has access to Adobe Pro and all users has access to Adobe Reader.
Some users receive many email with pdf's attachments in Outlook and need to print these attachments. They use the Outlook function to print email and attachment automatically. The users who has access to Adobe Pro can print attachment automatically with no problem.
The problem is user who only have access to Adobe Reader. The user can't print attachment automatically with the email, only the email is printed. But, they can open attachment and print with Adobe Reader. But, it's impossible to open each attachment because there are so many.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
So if I understand correctly,
1. You have installed Acrobat Pro & Reader on a Terminal server.
2. You have created a security group in your Active Directory Users & Computers for users having access to Acrobat
3. You have set permissions on C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe and C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Acrotray.exe on the terminal server and provided access only to the security group created above.
4. Users are accessing the Terminal server through RDWeb or connecting remotely through MSTSC (RDP) or using a .RDP file
5. Users get emails with PDF attachments and print the mail directly without opening the PDF in Reader.
Users check the box to print the attachments with the mail (see snapshot below):
Some questions:
1. What is the OS and platform (x86 or x64) of the terminal server?
2. What are the versions of Acrobat & Reader on the terminal server?
Thanks,
Vinod

Audio latency problem with VST, SONAR and Audigy 4 PRO

Hello all,
I have a slight problem with audio performance on my computer and I can't isolate what is wrong. I am using Cakewalk SONAR 4 studio edition, and a recently purchased Audigy 4 Pro soundcard. ( I know it's not quite professional grade, but it works well for me) I recently bought some string instruments from the Vienna Symphonic Library. So far, I love the sound of these "virtual instruments" if you will. The problem comes when I try to record them. I get stuttering and dropouts when I try to record the track in Sonar. I've tried the WDM drivers in 16 and 24 bit modes and the ASIO drivers (which apparently only support 16 bit!?) I know Creative has mentioned that these cards can record easily at 24/96 which is what I'd like if possible. Vienna instruments come in a 24 bit format. Is there something I'm doing wrong or do I need to seriously consider a different soundcard? I use Sonar to bring in the Vienna instruments as a VST. I also apply a reverb on it. When I just play this stuff on my MIDI keyboard, it all sounds great and keeps up. The moment I go to record though, I get dropouts after about 15 seconds or so. Also, is there no way to get ASIO 24 bit support for creative's consumer level cards? I'd be happy with the WDM's personally if those would work. I've looked into the KX project as well but haven't had a chance to try their drivers yet. On a different note, what are the significant differences between ASIO and WDM if any at all? (aside from supported bit rates) My current computer setup is quite powerful and I don't use much CPU power at all so I don't think it's my setup. Intel E6700 (2.67Ghz) Core 2 Duo, 2GB DDR2-800, 320GB Seagate SATA in RAID 1, Nvidia 7600GT, and Creative Audigy 4 Pro. Any help, or insight would be greatly appreciated!
Matthew

Audigy 4 Pro should support 24-bit/96 kHz w/ ASIO --> have you selected those I/O drivers in Sonar audio settings (Options-Audio-Drivers -tab). ! You need to unselect all I/O drivers first to get those 24/96 drivers selectable)?
Dropouts comes from various sources. Have you checked if the read/write caching is set properly (Sonar, try different settings)?
Stuttering may come from shared IRQ/resources and PCI Latency settings.
If your graphics card is not PCIe then, make this registry tweak
Run regedit and search the key named as DisableProgPCILatency
- set all 'DisableProgPCILatency' key values to 1 (HEX or DEC) (1 = disabled, 0 = enabled)
- boot to BIOS settings and find the "PCI latency timer" option --> set its value to 32 or 64 (this is global PCI latency setting)
- reboot
and check the IRQ situation. If there are IRQ shares between Audigy and other devices/controllers, try to get those fixed by disabling unneeded controllers/devices or by moving the Audigy into another PCI slot (PCI slots #3 and #4 are normally not shared).
Couple meaninful differences between WDM/KS and ASIO are;
- you can't get latency lower than 10 ms w/ WDM/KS (well, you can in Sonar by manually editing those buffer values but, the result is not good when you go under 10 ms buffer values (buffersize / samplerate * 1000 = latency in ms --> 512/96000*1000=5.33ms)
and
- you can record from one stereo (you can split this to two mono) source at a time w/ WDM (recording source is set in CT Surround Mixer (or windows recording controls))
- ASIO supports (Audigy serie) locked 'resolutions' only - 16/48 or 24/96
Also, tweak your system for music - http://www.musicxp.net/

M-audio stops working with Logic Pro as soon as I hit play

I've not found a solution to this anywhere. I've got Logic Pro 9 and hooked up a M-Audio Oxygen 49. The computer and software see the Oxygen okay and I can play any sound I want through the software. Until I hit play - trying to add a track to a recorded song - and the led indicator makes some strange outputs and goes black and freezes. The only way to get it back on is to restart LP. Anyone else have this problem or know what could be causing it? Thanks.

How do I check if the tracks are sending MIDI to the Oxygen? I'm pretty sure that's what's going on but don't know how to stop it. Thanks much.
Have you first tried the test I suggested.
A test... go to the upper left MENU in Logic, select Preferences/Control Surfaces/Bypass All Control Surfaces
Quit Logic, turn the Oxygen Off ot unplug the USB cable, restart the Mac, let it settle a minute, power on the Oxygen, wait 30 seconds and then start Logic. If the Oxygen seems to be working ok then it's control surface related.
Using the Inspector on the right hand side you cab see where the track is sending it's output. MIDI could only be sent to the Oxygen from an Internal MIDI track or an Environment Object with it's output set to the Oxygen IN.
Sounds like a control surface thing to me.
Go to that menu selection I described above and select "Rebuild Defaults"
Then Test
If No change select "Bypass All Control Surfaces"

Problem with Logic 8 and Ik Multimedia's CSR

I am having a strange problem with Ik Multimedia's CSR and Logic 8. I installed CSR on my computer. It is listed in the Audio Units manager. For some reason, however, CSR is only showing up in one saved Logic project --- when I open up any other project or start a new project, CSR no longer shows up. I have trashed preferences, reloaded all AUs, etc... I am stumped. Any suggestions?

Aside from having the proper version, make sure you are trying to open CSR onto a STEREO channel strip. Otherwise, it won't be available from the AU pull down menu.

Evolution MK449C Mod Wheel problem with Logic Pro/VSL Performance Tool

I'm using the latest version of Logic Pro on a new Intel Mac Pro. My controller keyboard is the Evolution MK449C, connected via a USB cable.
When using a Logic Audio Instrument assigned to the ESX Sampler Plug-in (running various samples, mostly from the Vienna Symphonic Library,) Logic's Transport Window doesn't register any modulation information generated from my keyboard.
As the VSL Performance Tool relies heavily on the Mod Wheel info to effect the sounds, I'm at a bit of a loss to spot the solution. When I assign a different conroller to the Mod Wheel, i.e. volume, pan, pitch bend, etc., I can see the info in the Transport Window with no problem, so I know the wheel itself is working okay.
Has either Logic or the ESX got some kind of controller filter, - maybe I've accidently turned something on that cuts out any incoming modulation. Can anyone help?
Thanks
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)

It's good to know someone else is having a similar problem (if one can call that good!)
I've been poking around and I've also noticed this: If I create a cello part in Garageband, articulation works everytime I open it. If I take that Garageband song and open it in Logic, articulation still works everytime I open it. The Logic file in this instance is saved as a "Logic Song." I don't know how to tell, but I'm assuming the Logic song is drawing it's sound files from the Garageband song (I don't know how to check that).
However, if I save the newly created Logic song as a project - with all sound files being copied to folders within a master project folder - articulation does not work when I reopen the file.
Strange. And frustrating.

Problem with Logic Pro 7 Academic Version

I've been using my academic version of logic pro 7 for about a year, and just recently it hasn't been starting up the way it used to. Usually when it launches, it says logic pro 7: academic version. But now it just says logic pro 7 and tries to run it as a one day trial of the retail version. I tried to get help over the phone but they were saying that they can't help me troubleshoot because they can only help out with logic studio. basically, they say to just reinstall it and if still have problems post it on this discussion. so here i am after the reinstall with the problem still occurring. some help please?

i just updated my xskey from the xskey updater in the utilities folder and it works now.

A Problem with Logic Pro 7 Crashing

Appreciate any help.
I'm running Logic Pro 7.2.0 (academic - no upgrades) on a Mac Pro w/3GB. I use an M-Audio Firewire 410.
Logic runs perfectly...AFTER the audio has been played successfully once. Before that, when I open a song and press Play, it's about 50% likely I'll get, "The program Logic has quit unexpectedly" - occasionally, this is preceeded by "Core Audio too slow" or "1 or more Files in Use."
I'll tried deleting preferences, etc. Should I re-install the program? Can this really be the solution, considering it works perfectly once the song has successfully started playing? (If I open a new song and close the 1st, I'm back to 50% likelihood of a crash.
It very seldom crashes under any conditions other than immediately trying to play a song that has just been opened. (Is this the crucial clue?)
Oh, and I'm running 10.4.10. Everything is brand new. Arghhh!
Thanks for any help you can give.

As already pointed out, 10.4.10 is not great on intel machines for audio. The latest driver for the M-Audio Firewire 410 is better than most USB ones on 10.4.10, but the lack of Logic upgrades does mean it is of an earlier time than 10.4.10 and I would try to do something about that first.
It may well be to do with the core audio system, and you may get different results if you create an aggregate device in Audio Midi Setup, including both built in devices and the Firewire 410 and see if that helps!

Random distortion and latency with logic pro and 2 presonus firepods

Hello,
I was wondering if any one else has had this trouble, about a month and a half ago I bought another Presonus Firepod interface and I also installed Tiger On my mac. Now I get random distortion and have to restart logic and turn the firepods off then turn them on again then restart logic, sometimes I have to do this a couple of times before the distortion goes away. I noticed a lot of times when I use midi (many notes at a time) I hear crakle too. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. please let me know if you have any pointers. I'm not sure if it is my computer, the software, or the interface.
Thank oyu for your time
Mike

I hate to be a cynic, but I've been having problems with my (bought in october)
Firebox and I would suggest talking with Presonus. I bought a new one which
exhibited the same issues and spent a month trying to figure out what I was
doing wrong. Well, it wasn't me, but the Firebox. It had a chip and a board replaced. Presonus was pretty lousy at accepting responsibility and slow
at a returning a box. If you went through a dealer see if you can exchange it
for a new one. I wish I had. I'm waiting for an exchange, btw, for this
fixed box because it leaks audio out bypassed outputs. Don't be afraid to insist that you get a working box if you deal with Presonus. The box is great, the support, for me, has been awful.
Good Luck!
