Automation + 3rd Party Plugs

Apple has admitted automation quick access does not work with 3rd party plugs by including this line in the 7.2 what's new manual:
"Automation Quick Access now works as expected with the following plug-ins not made by Apple: Arturia Minimoog and Native Instrument’s Absynth, Reaktor, and FM7."
Is there a list of 3rd party plugs and effects that it does work properly with?
Another question is, why haven't they sorted it out yet? Automation QA could be one of the handiest things to have working, and really speed up my work, instead, it doesn't work and I have to draw stuff in with a mouse.

Have you considered that maybe the real problem is that some 3rd party plug-ins aren't fully compatible with Logic - rather than the other way round?

  • No automation on 3rd party plugs, and they only address 1 cpu?

    Hey guys,
    A user had posted an alarming message on a previous post, and I thought I'd address it in it's own post.
    He basically stated that some major 3rd party plugs, namely Native Instruments and "many other software instrument manufacturers" can only address one CPU in the new Mac Pros, and that in Logic 8 you can no longer automate these 3rd party instruments. We do a LOT of automating in 7 here, on Kontakt, many others, and that would definitely prevent me from doing the change over any time soon. I'm sure they'll fix it at some point, but can anyone confirm that this is true? Thanks homies.
    Tyler

    Well, one of the mentioned rumours is true. E.g. Kontakt 3 obviously doesn't use more than one CPU at a time - even with the "Multiprocessor Support" option enabled.
    Concerning the Automation everything works fine as always here with NI Kontakt 2/3 and Reaktor.

  • 3rd Party Plug-ins for Illustrator

    EskoArtwork has a Dynamic Barcode 3rd party plug-in for Illustrator that is listed on the Adobe wesbiste for Illustrator CS6.  I puchased it and downloaded it but during the install I get a message saying it can't find a compatible Adobe Illustrator installation on my computer (I have CS6 installed).  Upon reading the information on EskoArtwork's package, it says it is only compatible with CS4, CS5 and CS5.5.  Is there a way to get this to work with CS6?  If not, I would suggest Adobe take it off their list of Plug-In's for CS6. 
    Also - if it is not compatible, does anyone know of a similar plug-in that would generate and insert bar codes into packaging designs?
    Thanks!

    You'll probably need to ask EskoArtwork about this.
    In past versions, I've been able to move plugins from the plugin directory for the old version to the new version, and often it worked.  (YMMV, it depends on changes in the SDK.) You might try creating empty directories for a CS5 version number to see if the installer will work.

  • "3rd Party Plug-Ins" Not Showing Up In Preference Pane...

    I'm trying to install a couple of 3rd-Party Plug-Ins... Apparently the procedure for this is to go to Preferences, and in the "General" pane, there should be a heading that says "3rd Party Plug-Ins" along with buttons "Choose..." and "Clear" and a path.
    On my General Preferences Pane, there is no such section... It goes right from "Content Library & Templates" to "Media," with no "3rd Party Plug-Ins" listed anywhere in the pane.
    Using Motion 3.0.2.... Did something change and they didn't change the manual to match? Or is there some setting elsewhere that's making that option disappear?
    Thanks!!!
    Nick

    Howdy,
    The "3rd party plug-ins" section in the Library and preferences really refers to AE plug-ins. Third-party FxPlug plug-ins (like dvMatte or Boris Continuum) show up mixed in with the regular filters and generators.
    That "3rd party plug-ins" path setting in the preferences doesn't appear on Intel-based Macs, as they're no longer supported. If you have a PowerPC system, they'll show up (and so will the setting).

  • 3rd party plug-ins are not displayed in channel strip audio unit insert

    I have successfully loaded several 3rd party plug-ins (Wave Masters and IK multimedia Studio Bundle) into my MacBook Pro. The files are shown in Library>Audio>Plug-ins>Components, in User>Downloads, and they appear in my Audio Unit Manager (for each the box is checked for access from Logic Pro). Yet, when I go to a channel strip to launch some of the plug-ins, the product does not show up under audio units. How do I get these plug-in files to the insert list for my audio channels? Unfortunately, I need to launch these plug-ins in order to authorize them with the vendor. I must be missing a key step, but I have not had this issue before with other 3rd party plug-ins. Thanks for any direction.

    Also, I know in the case of my IK Multimedia Classic Studio Reverb, it will NOT be available from within my 3rd party plug-in list, on a MONO channel.
    I need to be opening the list on a stereo track (or stereo Aux), in order to be able to select those plug-ins.
    See if it's something that simple...

  • How will FCPX implement 3rd Party Plug-ins?

    From a Professional standpoint, the current version of FCPX is unusable on so many levels due to the absence of basic features that made FCP series the juggernaut it was until yesterday.
    Here's my prediction of HOW Apple plans to distribute Plug-ins and Add-ons:
    Apple is pushing towards a single, universal OS -- most likely a glorified iOS. And they're forcing FCPX users to upgrade to Lion so they have Appstore on their machines just to buy FCPX. Matter of fact, theyi're seeing more profit from Appstore/iTunes than their own computers! Ever since the success of the Appstore -- Apple/Jobs has been pushing to create products and services that will bring even more profit to the Appstore/iTunes business model.
    Hence the release of the iPad and the development of iPad apps -- and the move to with OSX Lion.
    The reason for this is so that Apple can take their flagship software like FCP --- and monetize all 3rd-party plug-ins and add-ons.
    SO, once Apple has a consumer using FCPX, if they want Multi-cam or Import/Export features -- you will have to buy it as an add-on and sell all FCPX plug-ins and add-ons THROUGH THE APPSTORE.
    Furthermore -- Apple will most likely force all 3rd-party developers to build plug-ins for FCPX as an APP -- and sell it THROUGH THE APPSTORE -- where Apple gets 30% commission -- stealing that money away from the developers, who in the past with FCP7, you were able to purchase directly from the developer.
    SO -- FCPX isn't a revolution in editing....
    FCPX is a revolution in MONETIZING FINAL CUT PRO PLUG-INS through the APPSTORE!

    Apple is pushing towards a single, universal OS -- most likely a glorified iOS.
    No they are not. OS X is a far more developed, powerful and mature OS than iOS. There is no sign that it is being some reduced in power in any way.There's a whole lot of fokks claiming it is simply because a few interface features from iOS are being added  - note added - to OS X.
    And they're forcing FCPX users to upgrade to Lion so they have Appstore on their machines just to buy FCPX.
    Well I hate the argue but that's factually untrue as well. No FCPX users are not forced to upgrade to Lion. Snow Leopard users can buy FCPX today, long before Lion is introduced.

  • How to PERMANENTLY get rid of 3rd party Plug-ins in Logic pro 9.

    Hi, im trying to get rid of some 3rd party plug-ins on logic, but it only looks like i can disable them. (sweeping them under the rug isn't helpful) This is a problem because i have one version of a plug-in that doesn't work and im gonna get another of the same version (with expansions) to replace it so im concerned that the 2 versions will conflict with one another and i wont get the expansions i payed for. Anyone have a solution to permanently get rid of plug-ins? -Tim

    The component files of the third party plugins are in:
    Local Drive\Library\Audio\Plug-Ins\Components
    You can make a backup of a given component (say in a desktop folder) and replace the component with other version etc.
    You can use [Pacifist|http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/mac/12743] as well to install/extract a component from a given installation pack etc.
    Edit: Sorry Immo I duplicated your reply solutions hitting posting a few sec. later...

  • How do you install 3rd party plug-in in Photoshop CC

    Our fine customer service/tech support wouldn't help me with my question/problem because 3rd party plug-ins are not an Adobe product.... Silly, isn't it since all I want to know is how do you install "any" plug-ins into Adobe Photoshop CC. Can anyone with any sanity here offer a solution?
    Thanks.

    It could be complex depending on your OS and user ID permissions.    Adobe Photoshop CC Mac version only supports new Mac with Intel 64bit processors, Photoshop CC windows supports  both 64 bit systems and 32 bit systems.  If you have a 64 bit system both the 32 bit and 64 bit version of Photoshop are installed so windows has both a 32 bit Plug-in Folder and a 64 Bit Plug-in Folder.  Prior to CC Photoshop Preference let you add you own Plug-in folder tree to Photoshop Plug-in folder tree.   I still install Plug-in that way however I have to add the link manually for adobe removed that option from its Preferences UI in Photoshop CC.  I always have more the one versions of Photoshop and all installed versions use the same Plug-in, Actions and Scripts that I add to Photoshop.   There is One exception.  The Way the Image Processor Pro plug-in script is coded expects it and it default XML file to be installed into Adobe's folder so I made and exception for it.   You user ID need to have permission to modify and add files to system folders if you want to install plug-ins into the folders that Adobe created for third party plug-ins to be installed into.
    Adobe Photoshop CC installer creates a folder in  Photoshop version   ...\Plug-ins\... so on my Window 7 64 bit system there are two folders
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\" and
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC\Plug-ins\"
    All I add to these are the Adobe ScriptListener.8li Plug-in and a link to my  Plug-ins folder.

  • No 3rd Party Plug-In Support in Prelude?

    Hi,
    I am hoping to utilize this third-party plug-in linked below with Adobe Prelude to ingest Ikegami MXF media, perform pre-edits and transcode from camera media to permanent storage
    http://http://www.mainconcept.com/products/apps-plug-ins/plug-ins-for-adobe/t otalcode-cs-5-6.htmlhttp://
    The plug-in works great in Premiere, but doesn't seem to be recognized by Prelude.  See this thread linked below.
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4621685#4621685
    The creaters of Total Code have informed me that Prelude does not support any 3rd party plug-in software.  Is this true?  If so, seems like a big oversight on Adobe's part given Prelude's place in the workflow for batch transcodes.  Any chance 3rd party support is expected to be built in via a CS6 update?
    Thanks,
    Lindsay

    Thanks for your help Zac. I hope you can get ot the bottom of this for me.  I have corresponded with Total Code via email support and they kindly pointed the finger back at Adobe, but I have the feeling someone like your self may have a bit more sway.  Please keep me posted and thanks again.

  • CoreAudio: Plug-in "insert 3rd party plug in names here" Not Available

    Hey guys, hoping you can help me with this one... been trying to read up on it a little and I've tried a couple of the suggestions that were made to no avail, the problem still is there.
    Basically, Logic isn't recognizing any of my 3rd party plugs that were working fine for a few months until a couple days ago. TC Powercore PCI, NI Kore 4, Arturia Mini Moog V, Sonalksis TBK's and a couple others are all not being recognized... They all were fine, now Logic won't recognize them.
    I ditched my Logic Pref's, re-installed all my plug's, repaired permissions... yet still, I get the "not available" story. If you guys can possibly help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks,

    G4 Dual 1.25   Mac OS X (10.4.10)   2 Gigs Ram / Logic Pro 7.2.3

    Hi,
    A couple of days ago... sounds like you did an Os update, to 10.4.10
    Which includes the 10.4.9 "fixes", which include a NEW and IMPROVED Logic Plug-In manager thingy.
    Which is why your Plug-Ins are not compatible anymore...so...
    Do a search in this very forum, and find how to fix the 10.4.9 issue.
    Hint: you'll have to re-download the OSX update manually, and re-install that.
    You'll spend time on this, but come out the wiser... ie don't let Apple's Auto-Update update anything, until you know for a fat it will not ruin your Logic experience.
    Welcome to the brave new world of still doing things manually.
    Cheers

  • 3rd Party Plug-Ins causing Program Window to display Black

    I've had this issue occur with 2 different 3rd Party Plug-Ins.  The effect causing the issue at this particular moment is the new Magic Bullet Film plug-in, however, like I said this has happened in the past with a totally different plug-in (not related to Magic Bullet Suite at all, and was not a recent occurrence).  At random times whilst color grading a project, sometimes when the play head moves, other times when a portion of the effect is altered in the effects panel, all of a sudden ALL clips that have said particular effect on them stop displaying video and instead anywhere I click in the timeline over any clip it just displays a black program monitor.  There is no evidence of anything on any scopes, everything is just black.  When I disable the effect in the effects panel everything goes back to normal, but if I re-check the effect it goes right back to black.  The only fix I've found thus far is to close premiere and re-open it, but again, it keeps recurring at random times.
    I'm currently running Premiere CC 2014 Build 8.2.0 (65) on Windows 8.1 with an Intel Core i7-3820 CPU.
    If anyone else has either seen this or knows what the problem could be stemming from I would love some assistance with the issue.
    Thanks!

    The first time it occurred I did, because I had never seen the issue before on anything else so I thought it was specific to that plug-in, but now that it happened again with a totally different plug-in it makes me think its not the plug-in at all but instead Premiere that is causing the issue somehow.

  • CS5 & 3rd Party plug ins

    I have PS/CS5 (standard version, not extended) and I have not upgraded to Lion as of yet.  I have OnOne, Topaz and Nik plug ins that I use every so often.  Has anyone used PS/CS5 with the various plug ins with Lion?  And if so did you have any trouble?  Our local Apple resale store said to wait to see if the companies who make the plug ins have an upgrade before I upgrade to Lion.
    Thought I would see what experiences anyone has had.
    Thanks,  Sue

    They sort of say DON'T USE OLD 3rd party PLUG INS!
    "As with all previous versions of Photoshop, don't copy old third-party plug-ins, or plug-ins from previous versions of Photoshop, into the Photoshop CS5 plug-ins folder.  If you have set the Additional Plug-Ins Folder in the Plug-Ins preferences to a folder, deselect this option."
    Well where the heck are they supposed to go then?  :-/   Their installers put them in the Plug-Ins folder...
    I found for the couple I really wanted to import, and tried, once in 32 bit mode on startup (Switch this under "Get Info" for those reading along) -  they worked just fine.  Yes, 64 bit would probably be better, but I suspect that in many cases 64 bit "upgrades" aren't free - even though the features are no different.
    For now, for my needs, this works and has been solved - thanks!

  • Using native Logic OSC support with 3rd party plug-ins & new touchOSC maps

    Hi All.
    Now that logic from 9.1.2 has native OSC support, I wandered if anyone has used it succesfully with their own customised touchOSC maps?
    I'm not so interested in using touchsc as a transport/mixer for logic - which is what the default logic map that comes in touchosc s focused on, but more to control a few 3rd party plug-ins inside logic (FXPansion Geist & Strobe) - which would mean I need to create my own maps. It doesn't seem clear however if or how you can edit or use touchOSC maps which use the native OSC support bult into Logic
    Anyone had any joy with this, or able top shed some light on possibilities & limitations?

    For now they are OSCulator reliant, and that has some advantages: primarily that the user can easily remap anything that doesn't suit their needs. I've been using these for weeks and the combination has been rock solid so I wanted to go with it rather than wait for (and learn) the SDK.
    The best part is that these bundles will include everything you need, including custom Kontakt multis, VSL matrix files and of course the OSCulator mappings - and building those may have caused carpal tunnel syndrome! Talk about a mammoth task... Anyway, the goal is for it to be an easy plug & play experience.
    Trying to wrap up today or tomorrow - just waiting on some website reorganization...
    Stay in touch!

  • Text transitions, 3rd party plug-ins, etc.

    This seems so simple, but I cannot find it anywhere. I am using motion to create moving pictures and text. I want the text to blur in and out slowly (all of the letters at the same time). I found the text sequence blur but the letters will only be in sequence like left to right or random, correct? I have looked for 3rd party plug-ins but can't find anything as simple as a transitional blur for text. Any suggestions?
    Thank you!!

    You can modify any of the text sequence behaviors in any way imaginable. Try increasing the Spread value to spread out the animation. Or, just add a blur filter to the text and keyframe the blur amount to change over time.
