Drum loops on Logic Pro 9.?

I have just installed Logic Pro 9 and I am trying to follow the first tutorial  which is an exercise with Apple Loops.  I had a message to say that  there weren't any Apple Loops on my system "Please reinstall Apple Loop Package."  .  I installed iLife which had been missed off my iMac on a recent upgrade at the Apple Store and when I  went back to the Logic exercise, I find that the piano, guiatrs and many other instruments are greyed out.    What should I do?

If you haven't done so already you may want to try and download Additional Content.

  • Apple loops in logic pro 7

    If i use a drum loop in logic.. would i be able to remove the the kick drum or snare in certain parts of the song? eg..for build ups and break downs. i know in reason if you use a drum loop you can remove parts of the sample. because the sample is rex formatted (in slices).

    Just in case you don't already know, the EXS24 can import a REX file and in one step it assigns the individual slices to keys and exports the MIDI file to the selected sequencer track. It's quicker than loading a REX into DrRex.
    The only problem is you can't preview REX files like you can in DrRex.
    Phatmatik Pro is the other way to accomplish the same thing.
    All of them have unique and different features/options.

  • How do i use parallel compression for 4 drum tracks in Logic pro 7.2.3 Please

    how do i use parallel compression for 4 drum tracks in Logic pro 7.2.3 Please. my version is 7.2.3 and my son did his drums on 4 tracks. 2 OH's 1 Kick and 1 Snare. Were confused because we cant figure out how to do parallel compression on the older logic version 7.2.3?

    I can't remember when the Aux tracks became the new buss tracks, so I'll spell this out using busses.
    The way I do it, is I assign all my drum tracks to a buss, say buss 1.
    Then, on buss 2, I assign it's INPUT to buss 1.
    So buss 1 (all the drums) are feeding into buss 2 simultaneously.
    Put a compressor on buss 2, turn the fader down all the way, then as the track is playing, bring buss 2's fader up slowly, until you hear the effect you're after.
    You could also do this using sends on the 4 drum tracks, set to feed the buss with the compressor on it.
    I hope I haven't forgotten anything particular to that version of Logic. See if this helps...

  • How to record a drum track on logic pro

    how to record a drum track on logic pro

    • What midi interface is it? Do you have a current driver? If everything is alright, GB should say (in the Prefs) "1 midi device detected".
    • Do you have the midi cables connected the right way? Connect the drum machine's midi out with the interface's midi in.

  • Does anyone use MIDI loops in Logic Pro to compose music?

    Seriously, if anyone out there uses the MIDI loops to compose music in Logic, how the heck do you do it? Especially if you are also using audio loops, it seems almost impossible to me. The chord transpositions that you get from the chord track are not even to the right pitch, and the transposition behavior is different according to whether you drag the loops into the arrange area before or after putting the changes in the Chord track. The signature track is no better, as it doesn't seem to affect audio loops. So how do you get the bass loops etc. to play in the keys you want them to without going through extraordinary contortions? I looked at one of the Logic Pro books, and it said to transpose by using the transpose function in the inspector, but that only lets you transpose by octaves! Do you really go in and edit the loops by hand to transpose each note?
    Any pointers on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Put the mouse pointer on top of the transpose number, which is zero, hold down the left mouse button and drag up or down to transpose by steps. At the beginning of either the getting started or Logic manual there's an explanation of the different types of mouse/key behavior, if you're not used to using Logic it's a good idea to go over these.
    Also, Logic does not always use simplified Mac conventions (thank the stars for that), as a result you have a lot more variety of data input, it varies according to the task at hand.

  • Why do all of the drum kits in Logic Pro X have a delay? All of my drum hits (drum kits only, not drum machine) are behind the beat.

    When I turn on the metronome, it's in sync with EVERYTHING except the drum kits.
    Is anyone else having this problem?
    When I change the plugin on the these tracks to a LPX drum machine or to a 3rd party drum plugin  the problem goes away.

    Is Plug-in Latency Compensation enabled?

  • PROBLEMS WITH LOOPS ON LOGIC PRO 9- PLEASE HELP

    I'm messing around the loop Browser. Actually I am getting quite good at it. Even starting doing my personal loops... but there's something in the organization that I don't understand.
    I need to make my personal folders with my loops AND I need to get rid of some redundant loops OR change some names but the system won't let me do that.
    It just let me put my new loops. They would show up as a bulk in "my Loops" and that's it:
    1) Redundant loops don't appear anyway. (except in the browser) and I looked on
    Library/Audio/Apple Loops
    Library/Application Support/Logic/Apple Loops
    Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Apple Loops
    Users/"You"/Library/Audio/Apple Loops
    Users/"You"/Library/Application Support/Logic/Apple Loops
    Users/"You"/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Apple Loops
    2) I organized my loops with dedicated folders but they wouldn't show up in the browser... And I did re-index the Lybrary...
    3) Same when I try changing names...
    Anyone could help me with this matter? should I may be reinstall Logic again? My current computer was installed from a backup after the other one was stolen... just saying
    Thanks in advance

    Are you using Logic Pro 9.1.8 which is the only version of LP9  that is fully compatible with Mavericks?
    Also, did you let LP9 rescan the plugins.. If you are not sure... open the Audio Units Manager found under preferences in LP9's menu bar...and see if any of your missing plugins are listed there..
    If not, quit LP9, delete the AudioUnit cache and launch LP9 again so it does a full rescan...

    (This is for LP8 but it works the same in LP9)

  • If I delete logic pro 9 will I lose all the loops for logic pro X?

    I want to make space on my computer and right now I have logic 9 and logic X both installed. I think I heard somewhere that if you delete Logic 9 than you delete all of the loops in Logic X, is this true?

    If you mean... delete the Logic Pro 9 app then no you wont lose any loops... However, the LP9 app is small and really won't save you that much space if you delete it..
    If you mean uninstall Logic Pro 9 plus all it's content after installing LPX then yes, you could lose some loops/content because the LPX installer takes notice of any LP9 content you have already installed.
    In otherwords, don't try and uninstall LP9 and it's content after installing LPX

  • How to install Loops into Logic Pro

    I've purchased brush loops and MIDI drum beats and would like to insatll them for easy access in Logic. Any tips on best to go about this? IE: audio folders that can be accessed from the llops pane in the MEDIA window...so far I have to navigate around the HD to applications support into AUDIO>APPLE LOOPS>ETC...kind of a go around. THANKS

    they were AIFF download....I tried to load them as you mentioned but that doesn't seem to work...they are already there when I use the BROWSER except each time I want to go back I'm required to go through a directory such MAC>LIBRARY>AUDIO>APPLE>APPLE LOOPS>then to loops I want...a little of a go around. While we're on this subject is there a way to get drum MIDI files to play back as drums instaed of  a piano....so that sampling a selection would be instantaneous rather than loading the MIDI file onto a track set to a drum generator . Thanks

  • Can't download additional content in the loops section in Logic pro x, what's the solution?

    Can't download some of the additional contents from the loops in Logic Pro x, whenever I download additional contents it takes it's time to download but then when I quit Logic and start it again, the loops still can't be selected, they aren't getting downloaded, what's the solution ?

    Just click loops , on the top of the panel click loops, and select "reindex all loops".

  • Help with Logic Pro X and Addictive Drums

    Hello guys!
    Please be patient (and understanding) with my questions
    I'm trying to do just a basic task, and once I know how to do it, I will expand upon it.
    At this point, all I want to do is use Logic Pro X to record a Drum Track, a Bass Guitar Track, a Electric Guitar Track, and a Vocal Track.
    1) Would you start a New Project from Songwriter or Multi-Track (and why)?
    2) From what screen and how do you open Addictive Drums?
    3) Once Addictive Drums is open, I will pick one of the Preset Patterns and drag it to the Favorites Window on Addictive Drums.
    But once I do that, and here's the most important question (so far ), how specifically do I get/put that Drum Pattern into Logic Pro X?
    Thanks in advance!
    Jerry

    i've been looking into getting the 01X and been doing some reading. i have no experience with it but i'm interested in hearing more about how you get on. i did find that www.o1xray.com has a forum full of information about setting up logic and the 01X. ElmerJFud seems to be the main dude, his post has a lot of setup information: http://www.01xray.com/forums/showflat.php?Cat=7&Board=01X_Macintosh&Number=19978 0&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1

  • Logic Pro 9 won't trigger A# (open hihat) with Alesis DM6 e-drums

    I have an Alesis DM6 e-drum kit that is successfully triggering drum sounds in Logic Pro's EXS24, all with the exception of one note: A#
    This is the note that the Alesis sends out when the hihat is in the open position (foot is off the pedal).
    It shows up in the MIDI monitor in Logic Pro, and it should be triggering the open hihat sound in EXS24.
    Finally, after installing BFD2, I get the same problem, but only if I use BFD2 as a plugin. The Alesis DM6 triggers the sound of the open hihat in BFD2 when it is in "Standalone Mode", but when it is opened as a plugin, I notice that BFD2 has a MIDI monitor which tells me it is receiving the A# note, but the velocity is always "0" as in "zero". ALL OTHER NOTES REGISTER VARYING VELOCITIES, depending on how hard I hit the drum pads, but something in LOGIC 9 won't let the note trigger the open hihat sound, whether it is an EXS24 drum patch or a BFD2 patch.
    Any ideas?

    First of all, you are still in Learn Mode, as the button on the bottom right is still darkened. Click it so it becomes lighter, meaning learn mode is no longer active. Then proceed to delete all the assignments, in your screenshot I can see the top message is assigned to A#1 (look at the "input Message" values on the right). But the rest of the assignments do not look like you conciously made them, it's a bit of a mess. You should be aware that cmd-L opens the CA-window, and engages Learn Mode, meaning that whatever is the very first MIDI message you send will be "learnt" as a controller assignment, and it will no longer be availbale as regular MIDI. That's how notes can "disappear" if you're unaware of this function. To open the CA window without engaging Learn Mode, use cmd-K.

  • Logic Pro missing a portion of additional content

    Logic pro X says it has installed all additional contents in the download additional content window , but they are not all showing up in the library and when I load an older project (created on my old mac) there will be missing contents. I have recently switched from a 2013 macbook air to a 2014 macbook pro but I can't understand why it's indicating certain packs (e.g Jam packs - symphony orchestra, world music, voices) are installed but they are not in the library. God knows what else is missing in there too Can anyone help?

    Did you manually check you have downloaded All the additional content?
    By manual I mean.. Did you click on all the disclosure triangles instead of clicking on the button in the bottom left corner?
    The Legacy content requires you to manually select it all...... for download.
    Also, if you did do that.. Did you reindex your loops?
