Cant change plug ins parameters there in black....help!!!

i bought logic 7 when i was at uni, then my brother bought logic 8 he did not use it n said i could have it. i loaded it up onto my mac (logic 7 was already installed) and logic is ok but when i want to use any of logics factory plug ins they come up in a transparent black box. i can change the sounds but not the parameters on them?? infact the only plug in that works is the stereo delay....strange!!!
i look forward to hearing from any1, im desperate

Okay. Well plugins are the little subprograms that you insert as effects in the signal path (reverbs, EQ's, compressors, etc etc). Software Instruments are also plugins, though they do not modify a signal, but create one (generally). Loops are just short pieces of audio, and they are not referred to as plugins. What I understand (hadn't heard of them 'till now) is that Puremagnetic are samplepacks, which you can load in a variety of Software Samplers (=a specific type of software instrument). The samplepacks themselves are not plugins either, they have to be loaded by a Software sampler, such as the EXS24.
To get a grasp of the basics and thus know a little bit more what you are doing I advise you to open the LP8 User Manual.pdf, the Getting Started Guide.pdf and the LS Intruments and Effects Guide.pdf. You can use the little Spotlight search field top right to look for certain keywords. To understand the basics however, you should really read the (whole) Getting Started Guide and the first four chapters of the LP8 User Manual. Because if you don't know what you are doing you will probably not get very far...
So how have you used the Puremagnetik samplepacks before?
regards, Erik.

  • TS5249 After reverting back to Garageband 6.0, I find that I still lack all the Garageband Effects (Distortion, Vocal Transformer, etc.). The Garageband 10 "AU" plug ins are there instead. I need help getting the old effects back.

    After reverting back to Garageband 6.0, I find that I still lack all the Garageband Effects (Distortion, Vocal Transformer, etc.). The Garageband 10 "AU" plug ins are there instead.
    For background: I lost my v6 because I had to reformat my whole hard drive. When I reformatted I lost GB and everything else I had. I downloaded GB (unaware of the awfulness that is v10) from the App Store. The fact that v10 does not have all my favorite and most used effects from v6, I uninstalled v10 and redownloaded v6 from my App Store Purchases. I load up v6 only to find that all the default effects are there for each instrument, but when I go to add an effect (i.e. Distortion, Vocal Transformer, Flanger, etc.), instead of the list of classic effects, there's the list of awful AU effects from v10. What gives?!

    I don’t have this issue, but I am looking to learn about which parts of the old GarageBand can safely migrate to the new GarageBand 10. 
    (Personally, I like most of what changed in the new version.  I sorely miss a few features, and I submitted some detailed feedback.  If you think similarly—or if you hate the new version like babygotbackup—do the GarageBand community a favor, and send in your own feedback!  From the menu, select GarageBand ▶︎ Provide GarageBand Feedback.)

    You should contact Apple by phone as soon as possible. You'll need to change your Apple ID and all passwords.

  • What are the recommended plug-ins for HDR and Black and White?

    What HDR and Black and White plug-in software does anyone suggest for Aperture 3?

    There is a tremendous amount that can be done re: grayscale with Aperture's adjustments.  I'd look into those, first:
    - The "Black & White" Brick.  Keep the total of the percentages to 100 in order to not change the overall luminance much, but by all means play around until you understand what the sliders are doing.  Note that you can change the hues using the Color Brick (also WB, Tint, etc.), and use that to set up your conversion done with the B&W Brick.
    - The "Color Monochrome Brick.  Open up the color selector and skim the eyedropper cursor over the gray scale below the colors grid.
    - All of the Bricks which affect the luminance distribution (viz.: Exposure, Curves, H&S, Levels, etc.)
    The Nik plug-ins are universally good (they are several, including NR, B&W, and HDR tools).  (I disapprove of the engorgement of filters, many of which do similar things and none of which specify what they actually do.)  If you end up with the Nik Suite, I suggest installing it as PS plug-ins, and using PS as your external editor (with, if you're up for it, each Nik tool assigned to it's own layer).  Using more than one Nik plug-in on the same image in Aperture yields an inelegant, possibly destructive workflow.

  • Possible to Change Plug-Ins Folder Used by Safari?

    I'm trying to set up Firefox with no plug-ins and Safari with plugins, to switch back and forth as needed.
    Both want to use the same Library/Internet Plugins folder.
    Any way to alter the plug-ins directory for either of them?
    Is a Unix command going to come to my rescue to set Safari's plug-ins path?

    Looks like good features for Apple to add to the next Safari release...
    Indeed. In the meantime, SAFT offers compelling features specific to the needs you outlined in your initial post. I suggest you give it a try.
    Glad I could help. Please mark this post "answered" to let others know your question has been addressed. Also, please consider marking this post "solved" or "helpful" next to my name. Helpful for others looking for helpful suggestions to a similar question, also helpful for me.

  • I am unable to view google ads running alongside and under videos on YouTube. This is only a problem when I use Firefox. If I use another browser, I can see the ads. I do not have adlock as it does not appear in my plug-ins/add ons. Please help..

    I have been using Firefox for about two years. For about a month now I have been unable to view any Google advertisements that run on YouTube pages alongside and under videos. This is important for my business. I would like to stay with Firefox, but this is only a problem when I use Firefox and is not a problem with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome as I checked. I tried uninstalling Firefox and all plugs ins and add ons and then reinstalling it. This did not work. Firefox seems to be blocking the Google codes that enable the ads to run on the pages. I look forward to your help. Thank you.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

    HI..
    If you are using Adobe Reader ...
    Try uninstalling the current copy of Adobe Reader first.
    Best to use a utility to do this to make sure all the associated files are removed as well >  Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
    Then reinstall >  http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

  • Plug ins and rosetta from the help file

    does anyone know how to get safari to open with rosetta - to use plug ins better?
    I follow the instructions but cannot find the rosetta check box anywhere - screen shot helpful
    could it be my imac 1.9 G5 PPC doesn't have rosetta?

    thanks
    I'm trying to watch tv (live football) on my imac G5 and Safari is struggling with some of the pages. Can't download IE anymore and so I need to be able to find the required plug-ins to watch. for example: Safari can’t open “tvants://www.tvants.com/tvants/?k=b098b8443c47b932”
    also plug-ins required are a common error message.
    I think this technology may only work with PC's - a shame
    appreciate any help - have had a mac for years (since my Amiga became a relic!)

    For me, the "Edit" panel in GB6.0.5 looks like this:
    Are you saying, that the upper part with "GarageBand Effects" is missing?
    Then check, what is installed in your System Library in the folder
    /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/
    (the topmost "Library" folder on your Hard Drive.
    You may need to restore the old GarageBand effects and Track settings files from your backup:
    i.e look into the folder /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/Plug-In Settings/
    and restore the settings for Chorus, Flanger, Vocal Transformer, Tremolo, whatever effects you are missing.
    And also look for missing files in "Track Settings" folder and "Sampler" folder.
    What kind of backup do you have? If you have a Time MAchine backup, go back in time to the time before you upgraded to GB 10.

  • Accessibility - Cant change document color to white-on-black!

    Hello,
    I have a huge document to read, and the default white background is too bright, In earlier versions of Reader, I used to enable the
    Accessibility option -> Replace Document colors , and make the document white text on black background
    But in the Adobe Reader XI, this is not working! I tried with some other color combinations, and it seemed to work
    whereas, the momemt I choose Page Background to be black, and Document Text to white, everything turns black!
    i.e, somehow the text color is also changing to black, not sure why!
    Is this a known issue, or does this have to do something with the document? or the fonts on my laptop?
    Any hints or workarounds, really appreciated.
    (I am on Windows 7 pro, SP1 (64-bit), updated to latest Reader XI)
    Loreall

    Loreall,
    The replace colors feature in Reader only changes the color of the primary page background, so if the author added a background to the document (even if the added background is white) then this might cause the issue you describe.  One thing that may help is if you enable reflow mode, as this forces extra backgrounds to disappear.  You can try this by locating the option in the view menu or by hitting Ctrl+4.

  • Can I control the plug ins parameters with a single knob?

    I have a question for garageband users. I have the iControl from m-audio to control the paramteters of a plug in but most of the times the knobs don't correspond and it takes a lot of times to figure out which knob controls what. So I use iControl mainly for play rec and the scroll wheel is very helpful. I also use metric halo ChannelStrip and it has a lot of parameters. With this plug in and many other when you put the mouse over a knob you can control it by turning the arrow up down, I find this very imprecise and I would like something else. Is it possible to click with the mouse on a parameter knob of a plug in and increase or decrease it with an external knob?
    I don't know if my question is clear, may be it's possible to do that with some midi programmation?
    Thanks in adavance for all input

    You have an overdetermined system. To exactly define one of three states, only two booleans are needed.
    Test for too low and too high and if both are false we are automatically in range, right?
    Here's what you could do.

  • Free Extreme FX Plug ins

    Big props to Michael Norris for creating this suite of plug ins.
    There isn't anything like them, no fancy GUI, just the standard generic Logic plug in interface, But wow the things you can do. Most of these plug ins do their processing in the spectral domain. There are no presets.
    They are universal Binary Audio Units
    Try loading a simple instrument like the EVP-88 and load these FX.
    Mess around with the parameters you will be richly rewarded.
    The spectral drone maker is great.

    Enjoy!

    I downloaded this package and followed the install instructions, but the plugins do not show up in my inserts. I tried for both User and system file paths. Any ideas?
    On a related note, there are certain folders that appear in my hard drive's logic application support, but not in my user path, such as Impulse Responses and Ultrabeat Samples. I downloaded a couple IRs from Logicprohelp.com which supposedly should have gone into my user/library/applicationsupport/logic, but like I said the folder wasn't there. Is there a way to fix this? Is it even a problem? I mean, I'd rather put IRs into a User directory than the main path, but it works from there, so maybe it isn't worth bothering. I guess I just want to know if something is wrong.

  • Can't add 3rd Party Plug-ins

    I am using iMovie 05 HD ver 5.02 and I can't find the Plug-ins folder to add my 3rd party plugins to. I have done a spotlight search and cant find this folder. Other forums about plugins have said this folder is in the path user/library/iMovie/Plug-ins but there is not even any iMovie folder on this path. The only iMovie folder I have is under documents and that only contains a getting started tutorial.

    Hi B
    Really sure You are looking into Your "user" folder ?
    In this there is a folder with in my case "my account" eg "Bengt"
    in this ther IS a library folder
    and in this ther should be an iMovie folder. If not I would make one
    and into this put a folder "Plug-ins" and in this put Your plug-ins.
    Restart Your Mac and open iMovie and see if it found the new plug-ins.
    Yours Bengt W
