Fab Four Plug Ins into Logic

I just purchased the Fab Four software suite today and when I open Logic Pro 8 I cannot access any of the sounds. How come? What do I need to do to access the plug ins when I connect my guitar, etc to my audio interface?

As far as I understand, Fab Four is not an effect plug-in (apart from the ADT emulation): it's a virtual instrument.
Hence, no way of using it with your guitar, you'll have to open a software instrument track and play the sounds with a MIDI keyboard. Check out the video tutorials here: http://www.eastwestsamples.com/details.php?cd_index=1027

  • How do i import 3rd party VST plug-ins into Logic Express 8???

    I downloaded some vst plug-ins for logic express online somewhere and the instructions to install them says to go to library/audio/plug-ins/vst and to just drop them in there. i do that, but then when i drop them in there and then start up Logic, they're no where to be found in the program
    is there another way you are suppose to import vst's?

    You can't use VST plugins straight in Logic. The format recognized is AU (Audio Units) but there is a workaround using a program called VST to AU Adapter.

  • No Plug-ins found Logic Pro 7 & Pro Tools 7.4

    Hi everyone, I'm having some minor difficulty. The other day I did a fresh install of Tiger on my HDD and reinstalled my software (PT, FCP, LP) yet whenever I open Logic or Pro Tools they tell me I have absolutely NO plug-ins. No EQ, No Compressor, nada. I have recently loaded a second gig of RAM but so far I have not come across any RAM related problems such as hang times or crashes. So far the only problems I've encountered on my Mac at all is these plug-ins. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

    I'm Running Tiger 10.4.11. I use an M-audio 410 interface. I've had the software installed before no trouble, so there's no compatibility issues involved that I know of. As it says in the headline I'm running Logic Pro 7 and Pro Tools 7.4 m-powered. When I say EQ is not showing up, I mean there is absolutely no stock EQ.
    Lets say in Logic I go to my first audio track and click on "Inserts" it has a grey pop-up block that reads "No Plug-Ins" and it's the same for Pro Tools. I don't have any plug-ins that do not come stock with my programs and for some reason if I'm in Logic, I can not even access Garage band instruments. The only that seems to have stuck in the installation process is presets and templates. But if I click on a preset, for say vocals, it will "insert" the appropriate plug-ins into the "Inserts" section, but then will put a line through it saying the plug-ins are not available.
    All my drivers are up to date, and so are my Mac OS X updates.
    You Need the Logic 7.2.3 update to be compatible with OS Tiger 10.4.11. Unfortunately, the 7.2 update was a paid update which Apple no longer sells.
    The Pro Tools Might be trickier. you need to have the plugins folder placed in the correct place, and unfortunately I d not know for M-Powered if it's the same as for the othrer two versions, LE and HD.
    In LE and Hd the plugins folder should be in:
    /MacintoshHD / Library/ Application Support / Digidesign / Plug-Ins
    Or they won't show up.

  • I reinstalled my plug-ins into Photoshop CC (2014) on Mac OSX 10.9.4, and they are greyed out in the Filters menu. How do I get them to work? I have tried everything including repairing permissions.

    My apologies. Your post jogged my little grey cells to the point that I did a few experiments. In essence, you are right. My plug-ins do not work with 8-bit greyscale images. I like to deliberately shoot B&W and have a Wratten #12 minus-blue filter on the lens--as I used to do with film cameras.
    The raw files ( Fujifilm's .RAF) were converted in Adobe CR by checking off "Convert to Grayscale" under the fourth tab. In the future, I will do the B&W conversion in Photoshop with either Nik or Topaz plug-ins.
    Thanks for your input!

  • Plug-Ins for Logic Express 9

    Does anyone know of any sites where one can download plug-ins for Logic Express 9 (either for free or for purchase)? Also, I know that one can use sound fonts (.au) with GarageBand --do these also work in Logic Express 9 and, if so, do they need to be reinstalled for Logic or do both programs read the same source files?
    Thank you!

    To piggy back on previous posts, I would definitely pursue Native Instruments. While some may of the plug-ins may seem a bit on the pricey side, you will certainly get your money's worth. If you're looking for strong lead and bass sounds, I would encourage you to check out Massiv - it's my go-to plug-in of choice. I believe there is even a limited demo to try if you want to play around before purchasing.
    Hope this helps.

  • Integrating Nik plug-ins into an Aperture workflow

    Hi. In his response to a [posted question|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2746051&tstart=0] about noise reduction, forum guru William Lloyd spoke highly of the Nik plug-ins.
    I also like them alot, but have stopped using them and don't recommend them because they do not integrate into my Aperture workflow in any usable way. The suite of plug-ins (there are six, iirc) are designed to be used step-wise -- and therein lies the problem. Because of what I take to be a glitch in Aperture, any changes made within Aperture to an image edited and returned by a plug-in are lost when that image is sent back out to another plug-in. (The work-around is klugly: you have to create a new Version prior to every use of a plug-in other than the first use.)
    I love the Nik tools (and paid dear for them), but haven't been able to find the right place for them on my workbench. William -- or anyone -- how have you integrated the Nik plug-ins into your Aperture workflow?
    I am considering "upgrading" my Nik suite to the Photoshop edition in order to take advantage of all the tools. I'm pretty sure used w. Photoshop, the tools create editable layers. The upgrade, however, doubles the already expensive cost of the suite (and the Aperture→Photoshop→Nik→Photoshop→Nik→Photoshop→Nik→Photoshop→Aperture trip is sure to be cumbersome).
    My goal is simple: to be able to take full advantage of the Nik tools while taking full advantage of Aperture. Any advice greatly appreciated.
    TIA, and cheers.

  • 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...

    hi there all.
    last march (07), i went to an event in london called the Sounds Expo....
    I was given a CD called the WAVES PLUG INS demo.
    I put it in my mac and from that day on, i have been unable to use any third party plug ins such as fxpansion GURU, native instruments Absynth 4, PSP Vintage Warmer etc etc...
    This is due to the PACE protection scheme that was probably updated by the Waves installer. Oops.
    I have reinstalled logic several times, but nothing has changed. The usual AU plug ins in Logic work just fine. Its anything that is third party that doesnt work, like extra soft synths of effects etc...
    Logic has NOTHING to do with this issue. This is a copy-protection issue. I RECOMMEND you do the following: Run Onyx, and delete ALL caches, especially the kernel caches. This will reset the PACE cache, wherefore the plug-in list for the copy protection software will be reset, so you can see your plugins again. I've been through this.
    I phoned The editor of SOund on Sound magazine and he suggeste4d that I reinstall OSX itself...
    No disrespect to whomever you talked to over there, but the guy does not know what he is talking about.
    I'm a little worried if i do this, i will lose all my files????
    Yes you will. DO NOT REINSTALL OSX.
    Any advice on how to get these plugins working anyone???
    See my answer above.
    Many thanks for your time.

  • Missing plug-ins on Logic Pro X

    I dont know if the OS update screwed up all my plug-ins on Logic, but now i scroll to pick an instrument on a track and turns out i have none. I open up my old sessions and find that they are missing as well, can someone help? *** is going on.

    What does the AudioUnit Manager In Logic Pro X's preferences tell you about your plugins? Are they found and validated there?
    if not,
    Are they all 64bit versions? ( as LPX doesn't support the older 32bit versions....)
    Which plugins are missing?
    Are you looking in the right places.. Instrument button for SI plugins and Insert button for FX plugins...
    Failing all that, post up a screenshot of your AU manager and also one of the Instrument or FX dropdown menu to indicate where the plugins are missing from and whats there instead

  • Can you import software instruments and plug-ins  from Logic Pro to GB

    Hello,
    I purchased Logic 7 Pro and I find it to be way too much for me. Is there a way to take the software instruments from Logic to GB? I am not even sure Logic comes with more software instruments than GB. Do they both rely on the Jam Packs for additional instruments.
    Is there anything else GB can borrow from Logic. I know I can move the sound effects aif files and use them. Just wondering about other plug-ins and the like.
    Thanks!!
      Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Here's how you get past the static interruption.
    Make your software track and ignore the static interruption. Its not being recorded into the midi information.
    Then export the track out and reimport it to a new track. Do this twice. Your export/import WILL have static in it but since it was random your two tracks will not have the static in identical places.
    Edit out the static in track one by replacing it with a static-less portion from track two. You'll now have a complete loop with no static interruption.
    xs4sis. The cool thing about the demos is you don't have to program anything just use the presets. Who CAN program those **** synths anyway?
    There are some demos that have a hundred presets to them. I love that!

  • Plug Ins for logic 8

    hi guys..i got a question..i am currently running lp7.2 but am about to upgrade..i got lots of virtual instrument plug ins that work on 10.4.4...my question is when i upgrade into leopard and lp 8..will these instruments work?..and the second question is if i stayed in 10.4.9 and upgrade would these plug ins work?..thank u in advance..one last question advance accoustic system has a virtual guitar strumming and picking program has anyone used it and will it work too?

    Leopard: I am afraid you would have to check with the makers of those VI's.
    Almost all of them have Leopard versions, some of them are both tiger and leopard compatible.
    If you upgrade to Tiger .11, everyhing should keep working just fine. No reinstalls necessary - I say this with 98.3 % certainty.
    regards, Erik.

  • Installing Old Plug-ins into CS5

    Is it possible to install old plug-ins (plugins) into Adobe Photoshop CS5?
    I have tried a couple of my old plug-ins and could not get any to show up under the Filters menu.
    I installed to:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Plug-ins
    I tried installing Noise Ninja 2.3.2.
    I tried installing Kodak GEM AIR Pro.
    I tried installing Phototune SkinTun.
    No luck with any of them.
    I also tried installing a couple to
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\Filters

    No one is likely to have a FIX, per se.
    32 bit plug-ins only work with 32 bit Photoshop, while only 64 bit plug-ins work with 64 bit Photoshop.  I suspect the 32/64 bit mismatch may be at the root of the problem you're seeing, Hawaii-geek.
    Plug-ins generally need to be installed in the new version of Photoshop.
    For 32 bit plugins, maybe, just MAYBE, for an individual plugin you can find a way to copy the proper file(s) so that Photoshop CS5 will find them under its OWN Plug-ins subfolder.  Photoshop enumerates plugins it finds there when it first starts.  But this is not a given as a plug-in may set up things other than just the files when it is installed.
    The one thing to remember is that you ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT point the "Extra Plug-ins Folder" at the Plug-ins folder of an old Photoshop installation.  Doing so will mix plugins supplied with the older Photoshop version with your new Photoshop version, and this WILL cause you problems.
    HangtownGal is using that feature right.  For simple one-file plugins, you should be able to point every version of Photoshop to a common separate plug-ins folder, but keep in mind the 32 vs. 64 bit issue I mentioned above.  As Chris states, 32 bit Photoshop will only load 32 bit plug-ins, and 64 bit Photoshop will only load 64 bit plug-ins (which are reasonably rare still).  And keep in mind more complex plugins often are sets of files that are sometimes copied to a number of different places in the Photoshop installation area.
    Why is it you think someone else needs to FIX this problem?
    Did you not keep the installation package and/or instructions you got with your old plugins?  For those that cannot be installed into a Photoshop version that didn't even exist when they were released, have you checked to see if there are updates available from the plugin manufacturers?  You may very well have to pay to upgrade these.  You paid to upgrade Photoshop, so is that a problem?

  • Missing plug-ins in Logic Pro X after updating OS X Yosemite to 10.10.2

    I just updated Yosemite from 10.10.1 to 10.10.2 on my MacBook Pro and opened Logic X after the reboot to find that all of my plug-ins are missing. This includes not only the third party plug-ins that I have installed on my machine but specifically with this session file, the Apple/Logic plug-ins are missing as they are the only ones I was using.
    I've deleted the cache file in the library/audiounits folder on my machine thinking there was some glitch there but that did not help.
    Does Logic X somehow open in 64bit in Yosemite and the Apple plug-ins are opening at 32bit thus rendering them incompatible? I've read that that Logic X does not support 32bit plug-ins but if that were true why are the Apple plug-ins missing, they are 64bit correct?
    btw, where has the Audio Units Manger been moved to in Logic X?

    I just uninstalled/reinstalled Logic X. Apple plug-ins are still missing.
    Has anyone heard of anything like this? I can't find any mention of this specific issue online here or elsewhere...
