Connecting roland XV-2020 to logic

has anyone had any success connecting a roland XV-2020 to logic? when i try to install the drivers i get an error related to preflight scripts.

If you really want to divide a MIDI recording into separate kit elements, you can use "Separate MIDI Events" under the MIDI menu.
But... I'd recommend you probably don't need to do that. What sampler are you using to play the MIDI track recorded from the TD-20 ? That plug-in probably gives you all the control you need over individual drum sounds, and it also may give the option of multiple bus outputs if you want to route drum audio onto separate mixer tracks for further processing.
Generally, it's most useful to separate the audio generated from drum MIDI, not the MIDI regions themselves. But if you do want separate MIDI tracks for some reason, "Separate MIDI Events" should do the job.
Good luck!

Roland XV-2020 with GarageBand

Hi,
I recently acquired a Roland XV-2020 that I'm using with a Morrison Digital Trumpet. Is there a way to use the XV-2020 instead of the built-in sounds in GB (or are they from Quicktime?). When I go to record, I've been creating a basic track, and then using the MDT/XV-2020 to record with. The resulting sounds are derived from GB, not the XV-2020. When I purchased the XV-2020 from Patchman Music, I bought an additional soundbank. Needless to say, I'd rather use the soundbank over the Gb/Quicktime sounds.
Does anyone know if this can be accomplished using GB or must I use something along the lines of Logic?
Thanks,
Rocky

I replied directly to the (subscription) email and it never posted. So I'm doing it the old-fashioned way.

Hi,
I'm not using a keyboard but am using a Morrison Digital Trumpet. The output of the trumpet is routed through what appears to be a proprietary 4-pin micro connector on the instrument. The other end of the cable is fitted with a standard 4-pin connector with a locking collar. The output goes to a box which consists of a power supply and signal converter. The box supplies power to the instrument and takes the output side of the cable from the MDT and routes the signal through the box and outputs the MIDI signal through a standard MIDI connector.
So I cannot take a standard audio output from the instrument (or at least I cannot determine the method to take the output signal from the instrument and convert it to an audio out). I'm hoping that you (or someone on the Apple discussion group) can devise a way to use the Roland XV-2020 instruments.
Thanks,
Rocky

I am trying to connect Garritan Personal Symphony to Logic Express and Garageband. A dialog box pops up and asks for plugin Garritan-P. Where do I find it and what do I do with it. I can't locate this plugin doing searches on any of the porgrams.

Can I connect every USB-Audiointerface with Logic Pro?

Hello there,
please forgive me, if my english isn't so well.
So, my "problem": I actually informated me over Logic Pro X, and by the provided Audiointerfaces, I didn't saw my Audiointerface.
But - Can I simply connect a USB-Audiointerface with Logic Pro?
So, hope you understand me,
Best wishes, "toasbrot_55" (sorry for that name, i don't know when I did chosen this name)

All Mac OS compatible audio interfaces work with Logic, and almost all USB interfaces are Mac compatible. So it depends on which interface you have (make and model), and which Mac OS version you use.

Help needed in connecting two midi keyboards to Logic Pro.

Hey there, I would like to connect two midi keyboards to Logic Pro and enable each keyboard to trigger separate software instruments each. For example, one keyboard has guitar and the other has strings.
I realise this must have something to do with midi channels or ports, however my knowledge is limited.
At current, I just have the two keyboards connected via usb straight to the computer. Is it possible I need a multi input or output interface, so that Logic can recognise different ports, or channels? Perhaps there is simply something I need to do in Logic itself? the keyboards are basic M-Audio midi controllers, just a usb port - thats it, no other connections. Any help would be great, Brad.

Hey Brad,
yes you need also to change the out midi of the keyboards.
in my case I have the Keysation 61 es, it's done this way:
"Channel
MIDI data from the keyboard can be sent on any of 16 MIDI Channels. However, certain MIDI devices and MIDI software applications require
the keyboard to send data on a speciﬁed channel. If this is the case, you can change the channel the data is sent using the following
method:
< Press the Advanced Functions button to engage Edit Mode.
< Press one of the 16 Channel keys from D1 to E3, according to the Channel that you need.
For example, if a device speciﬁes that you need to send data on Channel 10, press the Advanced Functions button, and then key F2 to select
Channel 10.
The Channel can also be assigned to the Octave “+” and “-” buttons. Once assigned, pressing “+” or “-” will increase or decrease the channel
incrementally. When Channel 16 is reached and “+” is pressed, Channel 1 will be selected. If the Octave “+” and “-” keys are selected to vary
the Channel, the lights above the buttons will not change, since it is not possible to have a Channel with a negative value. Pressing both the
“+” and “-” buttons together will recall Channel 1."
Can you please tell me what keyboards do you have?
this is for two players having a go on completely 2 different parts.
In case you want to record 2 tracks with the same content say a piano and a pad,
all you need to do is open the tracks and rec enable both and you have piano pad.
Anyway I believe you need to have two separate sounds for two players?
Give us some more input of what you want, there must have one or more solutions to what you need.
Cheers mate,
Jorge

Connect my Yamaha MOX8 to Logic.

I've been having the most trouble trying to connect my Yamaha MOX8 to Logic. Would someone please kindly explain to me how?

Pac Center. I have a good one for you. I think I'm dealing with the same issue but I hopefully I can explain it better.
I have a Motif 8, Motu Traveler, and a Macbook Pro running the newest OS. I want to be able to use my Motif inside of Logic 9, fully. I can use it now, but I have to have Local Control in the Motif set to "ON." And I have to print audio as I go. I know that I need to have it set to OFF, but if I set it to OFF then no sound comes through. I have an enviroment just for the Motif that I downloaded a while back, and I was able to change my patches within Logic, up until a few days ago. I'm not sure what happened.
The Motif 8 is going through input 5-6 in the Motu Traveler.
If you can provide some insight that would be great.
Thanks in advance.

RECORDING AUDIO through ROLAND FANTOM G8 on LOGIC PRO

Guys, I have been struggling for days, with such a ridiculously simple issue. I need to be able to record audio through my mic which is connected through my Roland Fantom G8 on one audio track in Logic, while simultaneously hearing the beat on another audio track through my computer's built-in output. Garageband does this automatically.
When I set the core audio input to the Roland Fantom, I can record just fine, but then I cannot hear the beat play through the computer's output. If I set the core audio input to built-in input, then I can hear the beat through the computer, but Logic does not detect my mic.
The program detects the Roland without me setting the core audio input to Roland Fantom, as I can record sounds on a midi track while simultaneously hearing the beat on an audio track. So why can I not record my vocals through the Roland on one audio track and simultaneously hear the beat on another audio track through the computer's output?
Somebody please let me know ASAP because I need to get this album of mine under way. It would be GREATLY appreciated.

It's quite common - people who are used to using entry-level tools don't necessarily realise that the software is designed to do a certain amount of hand-holding.
When moving to a professional program, people somehow think that the new program will do everything the entry-level one did and more, but everything will be even easier.
However, professional software is designed specifically to not do any hand-holding. It's assumed that people using professional software have a certain amount of skills. The software is designed to help them realise what they want, rather than constrain them in "easy-mode".
In short, it doesn't hold your hand, it doesn't tell you when to go to bed, and it won't look all dissapproving when you turn up the following morning with a hangover and half your clothes missing.
The trouble with having the pro stuff so accessible is a lot of people who are really at the level of using entry-level programs are using the pro stuff simply because they can - and then they get frustrated because these programs require some knowledge to use effectively.
Sit someone in front of Maya or After Effects (as an example) who has very little knowledge or experience, and they won't get far. And the software is not going to try to educate them.
And we see this with Logic Pro 8 like never before, as a lot of new users have come on board, whether because the price point or value is so attractive, or because LP8 is accessible in a way LP7 and before wasn't.
(Note, this is a general thing, not necessarily applied to the OP here...)

Set-up Roland Octapad 2 with Logic Express 8

Is anyone familiar with how to set up the Roland Octapad 2 Pad-80 with Logic Express 8. I want to use it as a midi controller for some drum samples I have (not general midi drums). But like Addictive Drums or BFD Lite. I have it connected with an edirol e-mux 1x1 interface. But when I hit the pads there is no response. I have it set up in the Audio Midi set up. Are there settings within the Octapad I need to change? I've spent two hours trying to get it to respond and it's becoming a pain in the arse.
Thanks for any help.

Logic has a built-in midi monitor in the transport bar. When you hit the pads, are you seeing notes listed there?
The Octapad's model was "pad-80", and there's a manual available on the web - http://www.scribd.com/doc/8356768/ Roland-Octapad-II-PAD80OM. If you're seeing midi notes show up and can't change the settings in Addictive Drums to match them, you're going to have to change the notes on the pad -- which will probably be more difficult than doing it in the software.

Getting AUDIO to come out of Roland Fantom XR in Logic 8

Hi. I am currently running Logic 8.
I have my computer hooked up via USB to the Roland Fantom-XR sound module.
I can get the computer to recognize the Fantom as a GM device. I can see the blinking lights go off on the Fantom when I press my controller, But I hear no audio coming out of my speakers and the speakers are playing other Logic events in the Arrange window just fine.
The question I guess I have is WHERE is the environment supposed to be set up in this scenario? Has anyone experience this problem?
cheers to you all....

Hi,
How have you routed the physical out(s) of the Fantom to the speakers? What are the speakers connected to? Do you use an audio interface?
regards, Erik.

Trouble Syncing Roland TR-606 with Logic Pro

Hello.
I had this working before and I dont know what went wrong.
The setup is like this Logic sending MIDI Clock > Midisport Interface > Kenton Pro Solo (set to send Sync24 out of the 'Through' port > Roland 606's MIDI sync input.
When I start and stop from Logic the 606 starts and stops accordingly. Also, when I change the tempo from within Logic the tempo on the 606 also changes HOWEVER the speed that the 606 is running at is always faster than the metronome in logic - It doesn't sync. Is this a problem with the 606?
What am I doing wrong. Would be very grateful for any advice.
Thanks.

More info: From the Logic 'MIDI Sync preferences' I have set it to send MIDI Clock and from the 'MIDI Sync project settings' I am sending it to the correct port on my interface. The MIDI clock is received by the Roland however fails to sync with it properly..

Roland Fantom G8 to logic?

Hi there all together
I'm in serious trouble with my roland fantom g8. I linked it to my iMac via USB-Midi Cable and USB (fantom is said to be working like this). I also plugged in a line out from the fantom which goes into the audio input of the Mac.
Now, I'm still to stupid. Hitting the capslock I get sound from the fantom, but there's absolutely no midi transmission when I hit the keys of the fantom.
I made the environment as said in ninja's youtube-video:
Physical output to keys (incoming notes) to "showing notes" to sequenzer. Is there anything else I should do? In the physical output are the usb-midi-cable as well as the fantom. I changed the settings in the mac's in- and output as well.
Please help!
Kind regards from a helpless woman in Switzerland...

You should never have to set up anything other than your usb connection from your fantom g8 to your imac. I have read posts on this forum where some members are responding to other members questions with the wrong information. The usb on the fantom G8 WILL transmit both audio and midi into an application. You may want to use an external sound device if your not satisfied with the quality of the recordings using the imac hardware, but that is another issue all together. I record HD audio (24/96) all the time directly from my fantom into my host application. That includes midi as well. Thought you might like to know....

Loosing connection to cFP-2020 when editing subvis

I'm frequently loosing my network connection during the following scenario: Boot my cFP-2020, successfully connect with LVRT, successfully lode and run labview source code with 20MB available memory and stack is 180K, then when I stop my labview program and try to click on a subvi or other parts of the diagram causes me to loose my connection to the cFP-2020.
Once I have lost my connection to the cFP-2020 I cannont ping it or use the FTP server, so I have to re-boot it to get it to work again. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Brad,
How are you stopping the embedded LabVIEW program? Are you using the Abort Execution button in LabVIEW or have you provided a programatic way of stopping your VI (e.g. stop button to conditional terminal of while loop)? If you are using the former method, it may be that one or more of your sub VI's is not exiting in a stable manner and is causing the problem.

How do I get signal from my Roland Fantom G8 to Logic Studio or GarageBand?

My computer recently crashed, and since then I have not been able to record any music into either Logic Studio or GarageBand. I need to get back up and running ASAP, as I'm in the middle of recording music for 5 different projects. Here's all the gear that I have:
-1 Roland Fantom G8
-1 iMac with Logic Studio and GarageBand
-1 M-Audio Fast Track Ultra
-2 Rokit KRK Monitors
-1 USB cable
-1 midi cable
-2 1/4-inch cables
-2 1/4-in to XLR cables
The 2 1/4-inch cables run from Balanced Outputs 1 and 2 on the back on the Fantom G8 into Inputs 1 and 2 on the back of the Fast Track Ultra. The 2 1/4-inch to XLR cables run from the back of the 2 KRK monitors into Outputs 1 and 2 on the back of the Fast Track Ultra. The Fast Track Ultra is powered via USB cable that runs into a USB port on the back of my iMac. The midi cable runs from the "Computer" port on the back of the Fantom G8 into a USB port on the back of my iMac. This is the exact set-up I had before my computer crashed, and I was able to record just fine. When I open up the audio preferences on either Logic Studio or GarageBand now, it recognizes the Fast Track Ultra; however, it does not recognize the Fantom G8. What I'm trying to do is get signal from my Fantom G8 into both Logic Studio and GarageBand. I also want that sound to then project through my KRK monitors. I also want to be able to record audio and midi. Please help me!!!

I used the Fantom for several years and did exactly what you want to do. I simply plugged my Fantom into a channel on my mixer, in your case the 003. I ran a firewire out of my mixer (Presonus Studio Live) into my computer using Logic Pro X. Then I just assigned that incoming channel to a channel strip in Logic. As an example I used stero channel 9/10 on my mixer, (plugged in the Fantom here). Then the signal went via my mixer firewire to computer running Logic. I assigned my channel strip input to channel 9/10.
Does this make sense?
I just sold my Fantom last week and purchased a new Yamaha Motif XF8. Now I am trying to figure out the same thing on it.

Connecting Yahmaha E403 MIDI to Logic?

Hello,
Sorry, I am a noob at MIDI...
I have a Yahmaha E403 Keyboard. It has a MIDI USB port on the back. My friend has the same keyboard and was succesful using it on Garageband.
I went to this site where I found the latest driver for Mac:
http://music.yamaha.com/products/downloads.html?productId=1212
I still cannot get it to connect. Even in apple system pref when I click on the Yahmaha icon, it says alert, cannot access to a driver.
I didn't have a midi usb cable, and my friend told me that the cable for your printer should work. So I took my printer cable and it fits into my keyboard fine and my mac book pro fine. Can the cable be the issue?
On my keyboard there are three settings,
• PC mode: off
• PC mode : PC 1
• PC mode: PC 2
My friend said with Garageband, he got it to work with PC mode off, and then just lower the keyboard audio and then you can hear it on the computer speakers.
The only difference with him and me is I'm using a different midi usb cable, and a slightly older model mac book pro. But we do both have mac book pro's and the same keyboard so it should work?
I've made a new midi track in logic and tried the keyboard on all three PC modes and got nothing.
What could be the problem?
Thankyou
- Mike
