Drummer track Hi Hat sounds

I created a new Drummer track, and then opened up a new Drum Instrument with the identical drum set, Option Dragging the audio regions down to the new track to create MIDI regions. After comparing the Drummer track against the MIDI track, I noticed that the Open Hi Hat (A#1) key is being used as an alternate closed sound, actually triggering a closed hi hat sound. When I look at it in the piano roll, I can hear the Open sample by hitting A# on my keyboard or clicking A#1 on the vertical keyboard on the edit page, but if I click on one of the A# notes in the edit window, I hear a closed hi hat. I looked at the Event list for an event that would cut the Open sample short, but it isn't there.
What's up with that?
Jim

I also want to know how to fix this. I use the ride instead. I tried using the drum module sound but I cannot get the my audio interface to work (zoomR16) I connect through the output mono to the zoom I can see the light when I hit the pad but no sound from my headphone. I am using a dtx540

Drummer track keeps cutting out

I create a drummer track and it works fine for about 10 seconds and then the sound drops out (whether playing manually or playing back regions). If I change the drummer it will go through the same process. Any ideas? Thank you.

No.. it wont be that then....
So next question... Are you using an external audio interface? If so which and are its drivers fully Mavericks compatible?
Also, did you install and are running.. the additional content to the system drive or have you moved it to an external drive? If you installed or moved to an external drive.. what type is it? USB2, USB3, FW or TBolt? What speed does it rotate at and is it an energy saving(Green) drive?
Finally, if you left it all on the system drive, which type of system drive are you using? Mechanical, Hybrid(Fusion) or SSD and how much RAM do you have installed?

I've somehow disabled the New Drummer Track in LogicProX

As a new user of Logic Pro X, I've somehow disabled the New Drummer Track. When I try to add a new drummer track, in the menu it is a lighter grey and not clickable. What did I do? How can I get it back?
When I have an audio track and select as a drummer track (say Sunset), then the picture of a drum set comes up and I can hear the sounds of each drum - but I can't add any loops, no bars of audio are automatically added.

I see skijumptoes had the answer already:

This helped meRe: When creating a drummer track, the Drummer regions are empty and there is no place to choose a genre and drummer. The only active control is the Fills knob, but there is nothing to vary.

Hi Mate, it should create a region yes, Can you draw a region in with the pencil/draw tool in the main window and then select it?
...Unless you've not installed any of the content packs maybe? there is an essentials pack (2gb) that should download - You didn't cancel this did you?

Drummer Track can not find the players and presets anymore,whats the problem?

When i open a Drummer Track, there are no players, no presets and no editing anymore possible.
After Installation of Logix Pro X everthing was runing maybe 2 weeks perfect, also the Drummer Track.
On my Mac Book Pro everything is running also without Problems.
Someone knows, what i can do ?
How is it possible, to make again the Installation of Logic Pro X from the App-Store?
I think, this would be a chance to overwrite the old Version, to finish the problem.
Thanks

Problem is finish.
After delete the folder: Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Logic/Drummer
and reinstall everything was ok.

Editing Drummer tracks?

So far, I like the Drummer feature - bought the extra pack, have been playing around with arrangements - here's my question. I'm putting together drum tracks for an album, and in one case, I need two bars of an eight-bar section to repeat - making that one section ten bars. In any other drum editing program, and in the old version of Garageband, I could simply open editor, copy the two bars, and punch it in. However, when I go to editor in the new version, it takes me back to the window with the virtual kit, the fill settings, etc. and I can't see the channel wav to just highlight, copy, and paste. Did they take this out? Can I really not edit any of the 8-bar sections in the Drummer feature? If that capability has been removed, the feature is essentially worthless, and I can't believe that anyone at Apple wouldn't recognize this. Help? Anyone? Am I just missing something really obvious?

Based on your question, it seems that you have a misconception of what a Drummer Region is.
A Drummer Region doesn NOT conatin any MIDI events
A Drummer Region does NOT contain an audio signal that you can view as a waveform
A Drummer Regions contains INSTRUCTIONS for a Drumm Pattern Generator (build into the Drummer Track.
When you edit a Drummer Region in the Drummer Editor, youedit the various instructions/parameters for the Drum Pattern Generator. Instead of placing exact notes for drum Kit Piece (Snare, Kick, HH, etc) the way you do it in a MIDI Region, here, you describe what to play in broader terns: Louder, less louder, more complex, less complexx, etc.
You have to make sure to fully understand to (different/new) concept behind the Drummer. Here is an exceprt from my book "GarageBand X - How it Works" that is now also available the Apple iBOok Store as an interactive multi-touch iBook.
You create a new Track, the Drummer Track ➊.
The Drummer Track contains special Regions, the Drummer Regions ➋.
The Regions contain the Drum Pattern, the instructions for the Pattern Generator what and how to play.
Each Drummer Region (the instructions) can be edited in the Drummer Editor ➌.
18 different Drum Kits ➍ are available in the Library Window ➎.
A Drum Kit includes style specific Drummer Presets ➏ that become available in the Drummer Editor ➌.
A Drum Kit also includes all the Plugins, including the Software Instrument Plugin "Drum Kit Designer" ➐.
The Plugins are hidden in GarageBand but their important parameters can be controlled via the Smart Controls Window ➑.
Hope that helps

ITunes plays track with no sound

Hi,
I have had this problem for a while. I play music on iTunes and sometimes (it seems random) iTunes will keep playing tracks but no sound will get out of the speakers, until I manually click a new track.
My music is on my Time capsule and I use airTunes. These are the only "peculiarities" of my configuration.
Has anyone had this problem?
Thanks for your help.

Hi pajd,
I have also had this problem. I had it a while ago and I reset my iMac (intel) and the problem seemed to go away but the last few days it has returned. I thought it might have been when TimeMachine was running but I disabled this and I still have the problem.
Think it sounds the same as what you are describing and what people on other forums describe a year or so ago. My iTunes just randomly cuts out when playing songs sometimes just for a few seconds, it looks like iTunes is till playing but there is no sound and then the song returns. On some of the other forums I've ready people talk about this just being when using AirTunes but I am having the problem just using my internal speakers in my iMac.
I'm trying to determine whether this happens to purchased music aswell as too imported CD's.
Any help on this would be much appreciated as it is getting to the point where I can not use iTunes.

Trouble getting the Drummer Track to recognise rest notes

Hi -
Having a frustrating time at the moment getting a Drummer Track to accurately follow another track and need some guidance.
I have a drum track that I've previously imported into Logic Pro from a BOSS DR-880 drum machine.
The midi data from the drum machine sits in a Software Instrument track with the East Bay+ drum patch applied to it.
It plays fine but has no soul, so I want to breathe life into it by getting a Logic Pro drummer to follow the drum machine track and use that instead.
This is where the frustration lies, as the Drummer Track is just not following the midi track accurately enough. The drum machine track utilises regular rest notes - accentuated beforehand with a kick/cymbal 'stab' - in both the verses and choruses, but try as I might I cannot get the drummer to recognise these rest notes or perform fills around them.
I've so far tried the following in an attempt to improve the situation:
- Created Arrangement Markers for each section of the midi track - i.e. intro, verse, chorus, bridge etc...
- In the drummer track editor, modified the settings for the above sections to try to get the drummer to accurately pick up the rest notes on the midi track
- In the drummer track editor, enabled 'Follow' for kick and snare on the drummer track and pointed it to the midi track
- In the midi track header, enabled it as a Groove Track and ticked the drummer track to follow the groove track
None of this tweaking is giving the desired result.
Yes - I can manually go in and adjust the drum track by converting it to midi and creating the rests, but then I've got to deal with a preceding fill that doesn't fit the rest note, meaning a lot of fiddling about and risk the flow of the Drummer Track that I wanted in the first place. I've also got a few more other songs to import from the drum machine that I know I'll have the same bother with.
Has anyone had similar experiences to this? How did you overcome them?
Any advice or tips welcome.
Thanks!

First, you are not going to be able to put a MIDI region on a Drummer track to have the computer drummer make it lifelike. In fact, if you take a Drummer generated region, turn it into MIDI, try and make some edits, then turn it back to a Drummer region you will lose all your edits. The Drummer plays what it plays. Likewise, by telling the Drummer to follow the groove of your MIDI region, you are telling the Drummer to play its own pattern, but to match the kick and snare to the lifeless region. That's only if you use a drummer region - doesn't work for MIDI.
If you want to add life to your existing MIDI you can use some of the humanize options in MIDI transform. Or, you could take a pretty good feeling Drummer region, convert it to MIDI, make a groove template out of that, then apply that to your lifeless region. Be prepared for a few notes to miss the GT grid and move way out of line.

Creative MediaSource, tracks don't sound rig

Please can somebody help. For no reason that I know of, since yesterday, I cannot listen to music properly through the PC. I use Creative MediaSource but very recently the sound has gone very weird (can't really describe it... sounds like when you hear tracks attempting to stream from the internet but not doing it, and I can't hear drums/beats). This applies to all players now, whether through RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, or Creative MediaSource. Does anyone know what could have possibly happened? Thank you.

hi helen,
check your sub-woffer. select to direct, before going any futher. did your system crash within the past few days, if so it could be your music files have got corupt. if your sys had crashed. i had the same prob some time ago, all files were playing except for one. it was so low i could hardly hear it play, i had to delete it, luckily i had a copy and it went the same way. downloaded it again. and is playing fine ever since, another file i had trebled in size everytime it was played. the moral is check your file size's of your tracks. if you have copies hold them until you clear the folder or format the partition then copy the file's over it might help. this is the only thing that i can think off, is thst your file's are corupt.
hope this helps

p.s. as i said to you some weeks back is too check your sys. and hdd, no offence now. just trying to helpMessage Edited by john_g on 0-22-2005 06:58 AM

I record a midi keyboard track and it sounds fine as Im recording it, however, it won't play back in time no matter what I do, seems awfully useless to have all these "great software instruments" and not even be able to use them, one problem after another

I record a midi keyboard track along with a song, it sounds great, then, when i go to mix, playback, the midi track is behind the beat and out of sync.. i've tried every setting I can think of.. the strangest thing is that I've used this exact keyboard in the past with this exact computer, running the same version of logic pro, and it worked fine, now it just doesn't work.. it seems an awful waste to have all these "great software instruments" but they are essentially useless now... it is beyond frustrating to have this so-called "great technology" that doesn't even work and to spend more time TRYING to get it to work than actually doing some work with it...

After re-reading the first post, I don't think it would be quantize, either, sorry about that.
There are a couple more places to look:
Look at the highlights, one is for track, one is for region. Notice how I have it on MIDI thru (top part). That has a delay value. When you select a region, you can have a different value there, as well. Also, the Track part has a place with a delay value. These are three delay values that are in addition to the audio preference Recording delay.

Looping a single track of sleep sounds

I have made a recording of nighttime sounds heard during a recent visit to the Puerto Rican rain forest.    The recording is about 8 minutes long.   I wish to somehow "loop" it, so that I have a seamless recording that is an hour or so long, so that I can burn it to a CD and play it in my alarm radio (which can play a CD, but has no capability to handle an iOS or USB device), for "falling asleep" use.
The radio can be set to "repeat play" the one 8 minute track, but there is a distracting break in the sound when that happens.   I tried creating an iTunes playlist consisting of seven instances of the one track, and burning a CD while specifying "0 sec" break between tracks.   But even that created a distinct glitch (not due to the recorded sounds themselves not transitioning gracefully from the end of one instance of the track to the beginning of the next).
I seek advice on how to accomplish this.   I fear it is not doable in iTunes.   Perhaps there is some freeware that can accomplish the task relatively painlessly ?

I don't know if this is the best solution but if I were doing this I would take the sound file and paste it together in AIFF format using Garageband or a free editor such as Audacity and burn that to CD. You might even get some sort of crossfade to work to make it completely seamless.

Why I have to mute Audio Voice Recording Track always in order to subdue the voice recorded when I want to solo other tracks, audio or midi for listening.The other audio tracks don't sound without being muted. Please advise how to deal with this .Thanks

Why I have to mute the Audio Voice recording track ( the first voice track ) always in order to sudue its recorded sound while I want to listen to other
tracks ( either audio or midi tracks ) in solo ?The other audio tracks with voice recording do not have to be muted in order not to interfere with other
tracks turned on solo. Can someone kindly explain this phenomenon and any way to fix this ?
Thanks
Dan

Thanks, ATR,
I wll try this--but I still am unclear on how to do what the Manual says is possible: select clips on another track that WILL be moved, if I so desire, so as to remain synched to the main Video track.
UPDATE:
In the case of inserting Freeze Frame, I just tried both Ctrl method and Alt method, and neither worked.
1. Put Video on Vid1 track
2. Put Music on Sound Track
3. Ran a few seconds of Vid
4. Stopped Vid, selected Freeze Frame
5. Held down Ctrl key while clicking "Insert in Movie" also tried with holding down Alt key.
Result: a 3 second still was inserted int the Vid1 track. A corresponding gap was created in the Sound Track.
6. Slid the final part of the Sound Track to the left along the timeline to re-connect it to the next segment created by the above process.
Result: the video following the final Freeze Frame was pushed to the right end of Video1 track.
7. Slid the Sound Track all the way to the left.
Result: the entire Video 1 Track contents were pushed to the right and divided in pieces.
I documented each step with screen shots which I can send if you want them and if I can figure out how to do it.
UPDATE #2
In the case of inserting a video clip to the Timeline, I just tried both Ctrl method and Alt method, and neither worked.
1. Locate video in Project Assets
2a. R click video in Project Assets (pull-down menu appears), hold down Ctrl, click Insert to Timeline.
Result: Vid clip is inserted on Video 1 track, Sound Track is separated with a corresponding gap.
2b. R click video in Project Assets (pull-down menu appears), push Alt
Result: pull-down menu disappears as soon as Alt is pushed down.
I can stil drag the Vid clip but it's one more manual step...I love shortcuts!!

TS1424 Refund For Music Purchase - Tracks With 'Crackling' Sound

Thank you.

Have you tried playing them on a different computer and/or device ?

Hate sound like an idiot but will downloading iTunes 7 erase....

I really hate to sound like an idiot but when I look at the update iTunes and it takes me to the page to download, if I do this, will it erase what I already have in my library. I just want to make sure as I have had hinkier things happen and I really don't want to lose all that I have amassed. Thanks again

If this is an iTunes question, as it seems to be, then you really should be looking and, if still needed, posting in one of the "iTunes for Windows" forums.
Speaking for the Mac OS though, no .... your iTunes Library just gets carried along and appears automatically in the new version of iTunes.
