Garageband plugins? Ivory II

I have Ivory II, Vienna Konzerthaus and Garritan Personal Orchestra and I would like to use them with Garageband ILife '11. Is this possible? I would like to use the software that I already have for domestic use, without having to purchase Logic.

Yes you can use them in GB. If you have already installed the AU version of them on your machine then they should alrey be avaliable in your list of Audio Units.
1. With a software track highlighted, click the Edit TAB in the info pane on the right side of GB's UI. Click the top line option of the 'Sound Generator.' You will be presented with two lists of 'Modules.' The bottom list is where you will find your 3rd party software instruments.
All the Best.

  • New Garageband Plugins

    Hi, download the new garageband and when loading a song recorded on the GB 6.0.1 does not recognize the module adictive drums, asks you to load, but it did not recognize it.
    add a new track chosen module but adictive drums sounds, besides being unable to open the program to change the set.
    Where and how plugins are loaded????

    The new GarageBand does not support all plug-ins any longer. See this support article:
    GarageBand for Mac (v10.0):
    Unexpected behavior with Audio Unit plug-ins http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5249
    You may have to update your adictive drums plug-in.

  • Gliss using plugin instruments

    I'm trying to get a nice octave glissando in an acoustic bass (the garageband plugin). What's the easiest way to do this?

    you need to set the pitch bend to be 12 semitones. pitch bend is set to 2 semi's by default. click-hold on the number in the right hand side above the middle in the esx editor.
    then you will be able to edit pitch bends to exactly how you want them. i do this all the time as a matter of fact.

  • Garageband: "read error! Illegal format of file"

    When I try to open a Garageband project I get a "read error! Illegal format of file" message.
    Garageband then quits and sends a "report" to Apple (which apparently does me no good).
    How can I get my project back? Is the whole song toast? just like that?
    It was a REALLY good song too!

    I have the same problem. Hope this can help:

  • ReportCrash using CPU due to mdworker crashing

    I have seen this reported several times, with different resolutions over the years. I am posting this here as a new discussion to help anyone who has the same problem which seems to be a more recent version of the problem with Mountain Lion, and some older Spotligh plugins.
    A noticed recently that ReportCrash process was taking a large amount of CPU. At the time I was away on holidays, and needed a quick solution, so removed execute permissions from ReportCrash, so that my computer would be usable.
    Now that I have had time to look at it, it turns out the ReportCrash (the crash reporter) is invoked as mdworker is constantly crashing when being invoked. mdworker is part of Spotlight.
    Using Console, anyone can see in the logs it being littered with these crash reports.
    To cut a long story short, the problem turned out to be an old Spotlight plugin. Thanks to this CNET article for helping track it down: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20023166-263.html
    Have a look in /Library/Spotight
    In my case the guilty party was GBSpotlighImporter.mdimporter. I have a 2009 version of iLife (according to timestamps of the plugins), and this is the GarageBand plugin.
    Obviously a recent update cause an incompatibility with it.
    However it is ridiculous that the OS could let this happen. The launcher should not constantly try to launch a process that is causing problems. It should log it and either give up, and push back on launch intervals. Also the crash reporter shouldn't overburden the machine in this way. Any system should be designed not to compound a system issue with its reporting of it, and throttle reporting of such problems.

    I renamed the /System/Library/Printers/PPDs directory.  It seems to only contain LaserWriter PPDs.  I was using one of the color ones to talk to a Canon Color Laser unit.  Perhaps that was the one?

  • Note playing twice

    I'm currently using MidiKeys (1.71b) to input notes with Garageband 3. I'm using the virtual instrument Le Synthe (4.1) to generate sounds. The Le Synthe plugin is awesome and generates some wonderful sounds, very similar to the original EMS Synthi. However my problem is, when I play a note within Garageband, using either MidiKeys, the Keyboard with mouse or the musical typing function, the note plays when I press down on the key (as expected) but then plays again on releasing the key.
    If I play a note using one of the Garageband instruments, for example the default piano, the note sounds fine, only sounding on key press and not sounding again on release. Therefore I'm not sure if this is a Garageband/plugin issue or an issue with the plugin itself.
    Another piece of information, the Le Synthe soft-synth uses Pluggoruntime, just in case that has a bearing on the problem.
    Any advice most appreciated.

    I am having precisely the same problem and also did not experience this with the last version of iTunes. As opposed to Jagged_Link, however, I am always getting this problem. I have a very fast dual core computer Athlon 64 x2 4400 with 4 GBs of Ram so I don't think that a performace issue is the source of this problem, but I do have many other applications running at the same time (azureus, firefox, beyondTV). This was never an issue with the old version and I think that the problem might have to do with the gapless playback analytics (a problem with the process, perhaps). I will try eliminating all apps other than iTunes to see if there is a change.
    By the way, a repair of iTunes, using the original installation file, did not change my situation. I only use MP3s (no AAC) and it be helpful if the other posters can provide this info as well, so that the problem can be identified better.
    I hope we can find the problem and get it fixed!

  • Main Stage & 3rd party plug ins

    I'm a Main Stage newbie with 3rd party plugins (Ivory II; Kontakt 5) I would like to use via Main Stage. Having difficulty. After clicking and holding I/O, I do find "AU Instruments" in the dropdown menu with the plug-ins I've installed, but how do I load specific instruments from them into a Main Stage Concert so they are readily accessible in live performance?

    By AudioUnit are you referring to the 3rd party software or Main Stage?

  • How do you record an external Midi Instrument + Software instrument track down to a combined Audio track ?

    I have two piano sounds I'm trying to blend into one. One is an external MIDI module set up as an external instrument within Logic and the other is a software plugin instrument (Ivory II). I'm trying to record the blended pianos into a single audio track so I can ditch the midi track and more so the CPU intense software Instrument track (it's killing my setup....). For the life of me I can't figure out how to assign both these entities as inputs and get them to record simultaneosuly onto an audio track.
    My setup is a Presonus Studiolive 16.4.2 with the following assignments:
    The external MIDI module's audio output is routed stereo directly into channel strips 9 and 10. By default the firewire output of this channel strip is returned to firewire outputs 9-10 on the studiolive, but this really doesn't matter since recorded audio is being monitored thru the main output buss assigned to channels 17 and 18.
    My software plugin (Ivory II) is routed to output channels 17 and 18 which is the default setting for routing the output to the master buss for the Presonus.
    On my audio track that's setup in Logic I can assign the inputs to 9 and 10 and I get the external midi module's output to record, but I cannot find any way to get the software instruments output into this mix because there is no input assignment for this.
    Is there any way to combine these two entities and assign them to record onto a single audio track or am I missing something here? If there's no simple way to do this, can somebody offer any tip or ideas on how to accomplish the same thing here. I really need to ditch the software plugin. My setup only seems to be able to handle one plug in at a time on the software instrument side. Not sure why that is because my setup is not that old and the memory on my MBP is maxed out at 4GB....but that's another topic of discussion
    Any suggenstions would be much appreciated...

    Thanks for the reply....
    I actually tried freezing the software instrument track and that had little if no effect on CPU. I then read in the book or somewhere that the freeze function really only works on effect plugins. Don't know if that's true in all cases, but that seems to be what's happening.  Still would like to combine these tracks and I'm guessing I'm going to have to get creative with bussing or subgroups to make this happen. Unfortunately I think the fact that my Presonus board has hardmapped output routings for all the inputs makes that difficult, but haven't actually tried yet. I'm thinking if I can reroute the midi modules audio output input into the Presonus to a subgroup and then route the software instrument plug in to the same subgroup that I can then mix/capture this and hopefully route the audio's input to the subgroup to pick up the mix.
    Does this make sense to anybody reading this?
    We'll see and I'll post the results if it works....
    thanks...b

  • To stop background noise-cassettes to G.B.to ITunes???

    Moving old cassettes tapes into GarageBand --getting a lot of interference on some of them--can this be fixed in G.B. or do I need to download another extra program.
    PowerMac12,1   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   Also have a MacBook

    If you are doing a lot of this consider the excellent BIAS SoundSoap 2. It can be used as a au plugin from within Garageband or as a stand alone app.
    I have been very happy with this program. I have found that tape hiss and hum are its specialty, and it has o.k click removal. Check out the video:
    BIAS Video Tours: SoundSoap 2
    Pros:
    Excellent hiss and hum removal.
    Works as a plugin in Garageband.
    Simple interface and excellent automatic feature. Noise removal can be manually fine tuned as well using the knobs.
    Cons:
    Garageband plugin seems to only work on one track at a time.
    Click removal doesn't work as well as I would like.
    Standalone program is slow at rendering the file.
    A little expensive: $129
    The free Audacity has a noise removal tool as well.

  • How do I open GarageBand 09 project with the Amp and Pedals Plugins?

    My client sent me via YouSendIt online me his GarageBand 09 v5.0.1 project to tune up Logic Pro 8.0.2. Upon opening the project I receive the message, "Warning! This Project was created by a newer Logic Pro version. This may cause problems. Please update Logic Pro." After I hit "OK", a message says, "Logic Pro: Plug-in “Pedals” not available!, and then "Logic Pro: Plug-in “AmpSim2” not available! Where can I download or get the update that I need for Logic Pro with the Pedals and AmpSim2 Plug-Ins and when will it be available? What other version of Logic Pro is there?

    Quoted from Foxboy71:
    "aren't the pedals plugs and these new gizmos AU Plugins? Then they should be able to be put into Logic somehow. If not, how did Apple implement them into Garageband (and why!)?"
    The folowing excerpts were taken from a Sound On Sound article at http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/aug06/articles/applenotes_0806.htm
    "This theory actually plays out, even at the moment, when you consider that every update to Logic includes features to make it compatible with songs created in the latest version of Garage Band. And some of these features have actually benefited the high-end user, such as Apple Loops, in a rare example of the low end driving the high end, as opposed to the other way around."

  • GarageBand doesn't recognize all of my AU plugins?

    GarageBand is a fantastic tool, and it is very useful to me when making music. However, I recently decided to try some additional sound modules (KontaktPlayer, Crystal, and Alchemy were a few) and effects (Amplitube 3 Free, AmpLion, etc), and this is where the troubles started.
    The effects went just fine. I installed them and could access them in GarageBand. I had less luck with the sound modules, though. For each one, I downloaded the appropriate file/folder, followed the installation instructions contained in each one, and then checked GarageBand. Out of the dozen or so that I tried to install, only one -Alchemy- made it through. All the others, which had each said something like "Installation successfully completed", were not in the dropdown list of sound modules on my MIDI instrument channel.
    I then tried to put the appropriate files in the right folder manually. I went in Finder -> my hard drive -> Library -> Audio -> Plug-Ins -> Components and then pasted in the .component files. This did not work.
    What am I missing?  I have searched the Internet and found many "tutorials" on installing virtual instrumets- very few of them have anything beyond "download the file and it will appear in GarageBand as though 'twere magic" (which is clearly not the case here), and those that did go beyond that all told me to paste the .component files in the location where they are currently sitting, unheeded by GarageBand. Am I putting them in the wrong location? Am I downloading/copying/pasting the wrong files? Am I not using the right magic words?
    Any help would be appreciated. I have been trying to make this work for days, to no avail.

    Thanks for your feedback! That was the very first video I ran into, actually. The issue was that when I went into that dropdown list, some of the AU plugins I had downloaded were present, and some were not, even though I had them all installed and in the same folder. 
    However, when I turned on my computer this morning and opened GarageBand, they were all there! Guess it just needed some time to find them. All's well that ends well!

  • HT1295 Is it possible to use vst plugins for garageband from an external hard disk? (Without installing to the system hard disk)

    Hi,
    I got my MacBook pro 17" installed a 250GB of SSD as a system disk.
    And i got 4TB of Thunderbolt External Disk.
    The thing that i want is: to use my VST plugins for Garageband or Logic without fulling the system disk. Is it possible use them from an external disk?
    Thnx

    Garageband can't use VST plugins.
    If you're talking about AUs: you could try to put an alias into the HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components folder instead of the actual files, and see if GB loads them.

  • MIDI filter plugin or event processing in GarageBand?

    Hi there. Just got the Yamaha EZ-AG (trainer/MIDI guitar) and it works with no setup in GarageBand. Pianos and strings (included software instruments) sound great. However, I do have a couple issues.
    #1. Touching the buttons/frets a split second before you pick the string produces low velocity notes that get recorded. This causes a stuttering, double note sound. The low velocity notes can be deleted in GarageBand's note edit window, but I'd like to find a software MIDI filter (an AU plugin?) to reject low velocity input (say a range of 1-30). If anybody knows of one, please let me know.
    #2. Instruments like strings and organs have infinite sustain and keep playing until you press your palm on on the metal sensor bar next to picking strings. Having to stop finger picking or struming to mute a note you don't want anymore disrupts rythem and mutes all sound, not just one string. Another cool MIDI plugin would limit sustain. Am I asking for too much? I can edit sustain after recording, but that's extra work and not really very fun.
    I am looking forward to recording using the EZ-AG and software instruments, but I need some MIDI filters or event processors first (and I'd like to avoid paying $150 for a hardware event processor). Or if Logic has this type of control built in, maybe I'll have to upgrade. Please point me in the right direction! Thank you!

    Thanks HangTime,
    Great advice! but I didn't get a chance to try it. I am using Logic Express 8 now and setting up a Transformer Object to filter out the low velocity notes. It works, but it is somehow disabling the mute bar on the EZ-AG and instruments like organs and strings keep sustaining once a note is picked with no way to stop them. I will keep researching. Thanks again for the reply!

  • First time launch of Garageband yields plugin errors

    So I finally purchased iLife 08, and the first time I go to run Garageband after the install I get these plugin errors:
    "GarageBand unexpectedly quit while trying to use the Audio Unit "C1 gate (s)" by "Waves". This plug-in may require an update."
    and:
    "GarageBand unexpectedly quit while trying to use the Audio Unit "L1 limiter (s)" by "Waves". This plug-in may require an update."
    Then there is this one:
    "Required software extensions are missing.
    Click the OK button, and you will be transferred to the PACE web site where an installer can be downloaded."
    But of course there is no mention of the fact that you have to BUY the required software extension.
    I have done a reinstallation with no better luck. Has anyone else run across this?

    you've apparently installed some third party software at some point, one of which uses that godawful pace copyprotection. since they don't work with GB you'll have to either get rid of the old plug-ins, not use GB, or find out if there are updates to them.
