Groove lost in Logic?

Hi,
A quick question about different grooves. What made the Linn series MPC's and Emu SP series so exciting and original was the groove they had which, when played, fluctuated in bpm by about .5% up and down and was not tied to any "Grid", so to speak.
What I'm wondering, is why Logic will not record MIDI from these machines and record all these wonderful nuances? Or maybe it can and I'm not seeing it? I was recording a Linn MPC3000 this week and the notes were bang on the grid, and the tempo was the same throughout.
I've been able to record the grooves successfully in PT (i know, crazy right?) but is there a way to get Logic to faithfully reproduce these nuances? That way, I can create Linn groove templates, you know what I mean? Or am I being a nal?

So are you saying that because Logic is the slave, the grid will be relative to the tempo coming from the Linn? I don't think this is the case since I'm able to line up any given audio instrument using the grid. This isn't really what I'm looking for. I would prefer to have the on/off occur at the exact time (-the speed of MIDI) that they go into Logic.
I want a clear and accurate "groove" as its coming from the Linn (yes Roger, hats off to your feel, no pun intended).
And yes, I have tried with the SP and the same happens. I was just wondering whether these groove templates can be harnessed but I'm afraid Logic (as great as it is) doesn't perform on that level even though beasts like my old Atari ST would track and accurately represent the notes, albeit at a 64th note interval and a tempo fluctuation of +/-0.5. LOL.

If you still have the receipt or other proof of purchase, you can ask Apple to send you the serial. Otherwise, bad luck mate.. Good news is, you can now buy Logic Pro 9 from App Store for just 199 USD

I lost my Logic Pro box and disc, I can't find my serial number. What should I do?

I lost my Logic Pro box and disc, after it upgraded to 9.1.4, it asked me about serial number, but I lost it...
I can't find my serial number. What should I do? (I baught it last year.)

Hey Rickstertw,
I think there are two ways to do this. Open Logic Pro, then in the menu tab, click on Logic Pro in the upper left hand corner, then choose About Logic Pro. Another window will come up, and you should be able to see the serial number just below your name under "Licensed to" - that is, presuming this is a licensed to you copy! :-)
If for some reason it doesn't come up there and you registered the product with Apple, then call the support number and if you can verify your information with them, they should be able to give it to you.

I've lost my Logic Pro 7 XSkey USB dongle - what do I do?

I recently moved and in the process have lost my Logic Pro 7 XKkey USB dongle Can somebody please tell me the procedure for replacing it?
Sincerely,
D.D. Jackson

The biggest question here is, do you have receipts of your purchase or some other proof that you are a Logic Pro owner? If so, this should be easy.
I've been told by others that have lost/damaged their keys that Apple will only charge $89 plus tax and shipping for a new key, but only if you can prove you are the rightful owner of the software. If you bought it from Apple directly, there may be records of your purchase. However, the best proof will be a receipt or invoice that you retained.
Good luck!

Groove template in Logic X broken?

How do I get a groove template that I have created in the region inspector to show up in the piano roll editor? This happened automatically in Logic 9. Create it in the region inspector, use it, and it would then be one of the options in the piano roll for using in other regions. But not anymore. Unless there's something I'm missing?
Another reason to stay on Logic 9?

Lost/stolen Logic Studio software

I recently moved house & removed my files & uninstalled Logic Studio while my mac was in storage. All of my Logic Studio discs & OSX install/application discs have been lost/stolen along with my time machine hard drive.
The Apple store that I purchased all these items from "helpfully" told me to seek help online.
I have all the registration codes & information/receipts relavent to the registration of the products. Does anyone know if I can get the discs replaced without charge & who I should contact in relation to this as Apple store staff did not. My Apple care subscription has expired.

The helpful and solved markers are intended to guide future searchers to relevant posts.
Marking a your own post as helpful doesn't tell those people much.
Thanks for the greenie. I do hope Applecare will take care of your problem. I know they have helped people in the past with similar issues.

Anyone using Groove Agent 3 / Logic Pro 8 ?

So far it seems that all I will be able to do is create external midi-files then import them back in which is tedious as **** when trying to create a dynamic drum track full of changes. Cutting and pasting these tracks seems to be difficult once they are imported. What I wanted were prerecorded drum tracks with realistic fills and changes I could cut and paste via midi data - so far its not working the way I hoped.
Curious to see if anyone has any tips? Is there any hope or am I going to be banging my head against the wall creating drum tracks using GA3 w/ LP8?

When used as a VST with Cubase, GA3 can write the MIDI data directly onto an instrument track as the machine is played, skipping the "create external MIDI file/import.
What you need to look at are the automation capabilities.
Every parameter of the GA series can be automated. If you map the song out and "play" GA3's buttons, Logic records your "performance".
Fills, 1/2 Time, Pattern Change...etc are all recordable via automation.
Affer you get the song mapped out and the automation/performance finished the track can then be bounced as audio or exported as MIDI for editing.

I lost my logic express installation cd, i have the serial number and support ID, what can i do?

Hey guys!
I bought a new mac computer and i wanted to install my logic express 9 on this one, but when i open the box i see theres no installation disk and i have no idea where it might be so is there anything i can do to get the installation? i have the serial number and apple support ID
Thank you! hope anyone can help me out

Apple apparently doesn't do email support. You could try sending an email to Apple corporate and see if it kicks up any dust. Otherwise, see if you can contact the place you purchased the software.
good luck,

File lost in logic pro x project

Can I find lost audio tracks from a project that I bounced?

Hi there Eriksimon, I am happy to report that the files were found and my project is back to its original form and saved in the desktop. I have learned a few valuable lessons in the last 3 days of this mess. First, save your project in a master file and leave it alone. Second, do not revert to the panik click mode. Thirdly and most important, call Apple to the rescue... I spoke with Larry today somewhere in Texas and he helped me find the files and restore my project. I have still lots to learn about managing my files but I will get there... I the meantime all I wanna do is compose music. have a great weekend!!!

Help! I've lost my copy of Logic Pro 9...

I've lost my Logic Pro 9 installation disks, but still have my serial key. Can apple send me a new copy of Logic? Thanks.

Probably for a nominal fee. Call apple support.

Trying to understand how MIDI Clock works in Logic

Hi,
I'm syncing a Roland MC-909 Groove Box with Logic. I'm also using a MOTU MIDI Express interface. The MC-909 syncs to Logic, thus it is in Slave mode. Under Preferences->Sync->MIDI Sync Project Settings, I've discovered something odd, and I'm trying to understand it. It could be just a lack of understanding regarding the MIDI Spec.
Under MIDI Clock, I necessarily need to set the destination to the MC-909. I cannot use 'All' or else the MIDI Express starts playing back at 8x the tempo set in Logic. Not sure why this happens but its probably something weird with the MOTO interface. Anyway in Logic, MIDI Time Code (MTC) is disabled, Song Position Pointer (SPP) is disabled, and MMC is disabled.
So basically I'm only sending MIDI Clock to the MC-909. Here's what is wierd: As I locate to different places in the Arrange window (not in play mode), the MC-909 is locating to the correct time offset within the pattern! This basically guarantees that you can start the Logic song anywhere, and the MC-909 will start playing back the pattern at the right time. I don't understand how this can be happening given that I've disabled SPP in Logic. The only sync communication between Logic and the MC-909 is MIDI Clock, but I don't believe that MIDI Clock is even capable of transmitting offset information that specifies the time-offset into a drum machine pattern, Does it? Or is Logic sending SPP info as I click on different locations in the Arrange window?
Another point, is that if I select to transmit MIDI Clock to another device other than the MC-909, but still using the MOTU MIDI Express, then the MC-909 plays back synchronously (i.e. its getting MIDI Clock from Logic, even though Logic isn't sending MIDI Clock to the MIDI port connected to the MC-909), but it does not track the pattern offset described in the previous paragraph. The only way I can get the pattern offset to work, is if I select the MIDI Clock to be sent to the MIDI port connected to the MC-909.
I would like to figure this out because I'm thiinking about buying an external MIDI synchronizer, but I don't want to lose the ability to have logic specify the offset into the pattern on the MC-909
Thanks,

Lost LP8 authorization after Leopard upgrade

I upgraded to Leopard and now I have lost my Logic Studio authorization. Where are those magical numbers I have to now re-enter supposed to be? I looked on my Logic Studio box and all through it and I find nothing.
Funny how my 3rd party apps made it through the Leopard upgrade just fine, but not Apple's own Logic Studio.

if you go to homefolder/library/mail/... you should see all the folders and files, and there should be a folder for each email account, in each of these you will find the mailboxes for these email accounts. Can you find the missing mailboxes anywhere?
let me know what you find.

Lost my install cd

I lost my installation cd and I wonder if someone knows if my usb-key will work with any downloaded Logic 7 pro. Since I got my logic 7 pro from work and now I don't work for them anymore I have no receipt and therefor can not call apple support.

I purchased an upgrade from Logic 7 to Logic Studio but have recently realized I lost my Logic Pro 7 installation DVD. I still have my USB Key though. I may need to do a reinstall soon. Would I be able to go about reinstalling Logic 8 without reinstalling 7 again?
If so, how?
Thank you.
