Guys - taking Logic pro 7 out live !

Am a lover of Logic Pro 7,
I will be taking it out on the road soon and basically I am looking at new ideas to use it live. I run the backing off iTunes so it really is only running as a sound source.
CME 76/Yamaha Piano/Roland Juno D/MOTU 828 MKII/Mac Book pro + Logic Pro 7.2
At the moment I just have a simple 16 channel sound pallete, each with a different sound and all on 'rec'. This way I can access all the sounds one by one by selecting a midi channel etc etc.
However I would love to get more adveturous with my live set up
Having split or even zones set up to play sounds on different sections of the piano/synth. Or play two channel strips at once, etc etc
Please let me know of any templates or other ways to create what i want.
Regards :))

Hi
Just have made the switch to MBP CD2 for my live instrument..
10.4.8 LP 7.2.3
Did Namm Demos solid using live VIs and FX and many backing tracks.
All plugs and transport controlled by Novation Sl 61..
Never an issue, solid..flawless.
Also did live band at my own wedding.. 4 songs with backing tracks..
Live instruments and Live lead from MPB
Solid.

Logic Pro -Used in Live Performance

Hi All,
I know this will seem like shameless self promotion ( it is, kinda...)
But, many folks on this list are always asking about "live" applications of Logic Pro and Virtual Instruments..
Latency, practicality etc..
Well... here is my experience: LIVE,
for your amusement and entertainment:

Macbook Pro 2 gig
RME FF800
Logic Pro
third Party plugs..
( yeah, I'll fess up as to what they are after i see anyone is interested)
Novation SL 61 controller
Let me know what you think,
Daniel

Yeah I haven't even touched the Environment...I don't get how it works whatsoever...and now I have even more complications.
I'm currently using two keyboards. One is a generic midi keyboard with just a midi in/out and another is my Edirol PCR-30. I also have a 8-pad drum machine unit that has it's own built-in-sampler and can also be used as a midi controller.
Now I'd like to "automate" the changes in keyboards. For the record, all of my keyboard sounds come from the built-in audio instrument plug-ins such as the ESX24, Sculpture, ES E, ES P, etc.
How could I have my larger generic keyboard play one sound, while my other controller plays another sound, and then, for example, for the choruses in my songs, have both of them play completely different sounds?
Would I need to get like a MOTU midi interface for all of these?
Is there anyway you can do this WITHOUT using the Environment? If not, could someone show me how to use this or send a screenshot of what their environment looks like so I could use it almost as a guide to building my own environment?
Also, we're trying to send the click track to our drummer without hearing the click in the main mix. Is there anyway to isolate/send the click using a presonus firepod? If not, can anyone reccommend a device that's reliable for this sort of thing?
Finally, what's the best way to connect to the main PA. Do most people run line out from their interface into the tape in of the mixer, or send maybe outs-1-2 to an interface?
I feel like I've conquered the software one day, and then the next I feel like I'm still new to the system. All help is very much appreciated, since I'm no expert at environments or music tech.
Thank you very much,
-D

Logic Pro x out of phase

I was recording a new song and making some piano edits by playing with an earlier piano track. I completed one section edit fine. When I went to record another section suddenly my keyboard was out of phase with my earlier keyboard track. I have only recorded two tracks so I know I haven't overloaded the system with effects. What has happened and how can I fix it?
My Mac is running on 8GB memory. The recording is saved on an external drive but I have never had a problem before like this so early. I have had a vocal delay but that was after recording 14 tracks with effects.
Thanks

New new track. I am trying fix some piano mistakes in my other track and when I try to play with the original track it sounds like a flanger . That's the best way to explain it. If I play long enough the delay gets longer. There is a delay effect that it preset for the piano in Logic Pro. I shut it off and tried to play again just in case that was the issue. It didn't fix it. I also noticed that some of my track have midi thru in the region in the inspector. Thought maybe that could be the problem. But midi thru is shut off in the preferences. So I am kind of at a loss.

Garage band and Utube come out the output great but logic pro comes out the hdmi to the T.V. only!

I brought my mini to a mac genius to fix a ram problem but now logic pro only comes out of the hdmi T.V. garage band and youtube work great
one thing I did notice is logic pro does'nt have the usual red yellow green dots on the left top but a dot - + in the circles??? I tried reboot and I tried all audio options.

When you say you tried all of the audio options... what do you mean?

HI my name is Luca. I have heard about workshops that apple stores are offering on LOGIC PRO X. I live in london but unfortunately nobody offers such workshop anymore. Does anyone know about this?

Hi
my name is Luca, I live in London.
Is there any workshop I can book for Logic Pro X?
Has Apple stopped to offer such workshops? It doesn tm appear to be on their list anymore..
Where can I find it? Who should I contact?
The store regent street referred me on their online workshop list being unaware that the logic workshop doesn t appear there.......mmm

Apple Stores are allowed to offer these workshops if and when they can. Some of them do, but not all of them.
The One To One program is excellent if you are looking to get trained on Logic at the Apple Store.

Logic pro 7 out put

What is the best way to have 24 outs for mix dwn with logic Pro7? any suggestions?
Thank you
Passion

When you've got the audio into the desk (I'll second MOTU for that job), what will you want to do next? Will the desk output to submix/stereo live? O r will you be recording the mix? If so how? Or will you be bouncing the mix back to Logic?
Digital to Analogue converters come in all prices from a few hundred pounds (UK) for 24 chanels, like the Motu to many thousands of pounds per in/out pair. Your budget for this would help.

Whats up with Logic Being only sold from Apple and not retail . Are they about to drop Logic Pro?

What is up with Apple taking Logic Pro from the retail stores and only selling direct. Hope they are not about to drop Logic. The retailer I buy from has great tech support that I will more than likey no longer have since they can no longer carry the product.

Many IT insiders see Apple leading a shift in software distribution with the Mac App Store, that for example Microsoft will follow as soon as Win8 is out...
So basically it may well be that most of the Software will be bought direct in a couple of years and that Software Manufacturers may give up feeding their own channel, simply to cut cost and make it simple...
For support this indeed leaves a gap, but there are many examples in the IT world (ie. for Enterprise software, that has always been sold direct) how this gap will be filled: With guys that only provide service...
Logic is pretty darn cheap now, that leaves some space for 200 Bucks or so for a support contract, right?
Anyway, just my 2 cents, I can't see Logic going away anytime soon;-)

Will logic pro x run on my mac mini dual core intel i5 with 4gb of ram and mountain lion ?

hi there guys,
will logic pro x run on my mac mini dual core intel i5 with 4gb of ram and mountain lion ?
I'm not sure if my machine is 64 bit - it is the current model base mac mini.
Many thanks for any help you can offer !
Simon

SkiJumptoes is right. 4GB is not enough to comfortably run Logic X.
Your Mac Mini will need DDR3 SODIMM RAM. That website seems incredibly steep though. I guess that's the price of finding it for you. You're better off going to any below:

Logic Pro 9 - Final Cut Studio 2?

Some advice please?
I am about to buy a MBP 15" 7200. I already own FCS2 and would like to get Logic Pro. I understand FCS2 and Pro9 are incompatible.
However - is it possible to JUST install FCP, Color, Motion & DVD Studio ....... so that Logic Pro can install Compressor & SoundTrack (the later versions)?
Or - if I can't afford to upgrade FCS2 will I have to stick to Logic Express?
Many thanks

Hi - thanks; It's FCS 2 .... which has earlier versions of Compressor and SoundTrack Pro that Logic Pro 9. I think I found an answer ... If FCS2 is installed, Logic Pro greys out some of the accompanying software and won't install them.
The other way around (Logic Pro first) then I'm led to believe that FCP already thinks it's loaded ... until you go in and delete /Library/Receipts/ProAppsIO.pkg. - but I won't know until I've got them!

Can logic pro only be installed onto 1 computer

this guy has logic pro complete for sale with the usb dongle, will it work on mine, or can it really only be installed on 1 machine?

Be careful. It might be an academic version which, IIRC, is not upgradeable to major versions.
But yes, LP can be installed on as many machines as you want - the dongle is the most important part and is required to be attached before Logic will work.

Rewire with Ableton Live 8 and Logic Pro 9

Hi guys,
I'm really hoping that somebody can help me with (sorry) a Rewire problem...I am close to tearing my hair out.
I'm trying to Rewire Logic Pro 9 and Ableton Live 8. Before you ask I am using 32-bit Logic, and I am opening up Logic first, then Ableton but I can't seem to get the Ableton Live Rewire channels to appear in the Logic library.
Please help if you can, I'm going steadily insane. Such a waste of my time having to sort this rubbish out.
Cheers!

Hi
Did you run Live without Logic running to get Live to install the necessary Rewire bits and pieces?
You will then need to quit, Live, start Logic start Live.

In logic Pro, when I open up an audio track and load an audio file, there is no sound. I will finally get a sound out of one of the audio tracks after opening at least 5 of them alternately. Is anyone familiar with this kind of bug? It's really frustratin

In logic Pro, when I open up an audio track or software track and load an audio file/loop or software file loop, there is no sound. I will finally get a sound out of one of the audio or software tracks after opening at least 5 of them alternately. Is anyone familiar with this kind of bug? It's really frustrating as this takes much time to complete work.

I'm not sure I follow your words Fuzzynormal. You've helped by offering the insight that my issue in Logic Pro 9 is not a bug but a feature. But fell short of enlightenment by being a judge of character and of how one should interact in this forum. You insinuate that I haven't tried to solve the issue on my own when in fact I have. These forums are always my last resort. You further suggest that I am complaining. This is not a complaint. It is a genuine issue that I cannot figure out. Then you think that Brazeca is holding my hand and being a nice guy. Brazeca is helping people like me who might not be as adept at using Logic Pro as probably you are.This community forum was established to raise questions, answers and dicussion to help Apple's customers better undertand their operating systems and related issues. You are doing a disservice by not contributing positively and by trying to make this forum what you want it to be. You may have all the time in the world to try figuring out stuff but we are not all like you. We all have different schedules and different levels of understanding. And that is what this forum is for - to help people move forward. If you can't contribute positively then keep silent. And by the way, you say to "read the words that are printed down to explain to you how that works" what words are you talking about? Why don't you be of some help instead of trying to own this forum.

I'm running logic pro 8.0.2 on Leopard 10.5.8. I've recorded an evening of live music, the cut the recording into songs using one audio file folder. When working on an individual song, I can't access the sampler. I get the message "nothing to display"

I'm running logic pro 8.0.2 on Leopard 10.5.8. I've recorded an evening of live music, then cut the recording into songs using one audio file folder ad multiple song files. When working on an individual song, I can't access the sampler. I get the message "nothing to display" or "no region or audio file selected" After much research on the web, I believe this is a permanent bug. Does anyone have a good work-around for this type of work. We record live 16T band rehearsals constantly and would love to be able to break individual songs out of the large file and be able to use the sampler. Thanks in advance for your ideas! Cheers.

Another thing - if I copy one of the tracks to another track, then the sample editor works on the copied track. I don't want to have to copy 16 tracks to new tracks to be able to use the sample editor on a project. Thanks again.

Hey guys ! I use logic pro ... not logic proX ... and i want to record my drums with 4 mics. I got a mixer with also 4 inputs ( Behringer Xenyx QX 1202USB ) But in my Logic i can't take the third input !?!? i can only choose 1 and 2 .... Please Help :)

Who do you think I am? Santa Claus?
What you need is not a mixer, but an audio interface with at least 4 mic inputs. There is a lot of choice there, but you should indicate a budget. You can go from, say, € 300 to € thousands, if you want.
Roland UA 1010
Focusrite Scarlett 18i8
However, there are other options (like multi-out mixer plus multi in interface, or standalone mic preamps plus interface with 4 inputs, etc). I have little experience using these however so I really cannot say much about which one(s) to get. The two mentioned above both have four mic preamps, but they are by no means the only way to do it.
The cheapest solution I can think of is to get a second 1204USB, plug it in, and in OS X create an Aggregate device (=the two are being merged into 'one virtual' interface with two discrete stereo (= four discrete mono) inputs. Disadvantage: you keep the same (limited) soundquality of the 16 bits convertors. Getting any of the interfaces mentioned earlier will also mean you'll make the significant step up from 16 to 24 bits sound.

Ableton Live 6 vs Logic Pro 8 CPU usage/audio quality.

Hi,
Any user's have feedback regarding CPU usage between Abelton Live 6 vs Logic Pro 8. I'm currently running Live 6 on an MBP 2.0ghz (CD) and am constantly running into audio drop outs etc etc.I am reading throughout the net that Logic Pro 8 is more CPU friendly than LIve 6... is this true, overall? Also any users ever do a mixing test between the two apps to see if there was an audio difference when rendering your final project to aiff or wav? I am thinking on using Live 6 as a stratch pad to "create" as I enjoy it's flexibility then transfer the project over to Logic, however that depends if there really is a difference in CPU usage and Audio quality between the two DAW's.
Thanks.
guess i should also state that i will be running on the new imac's come tax return time. lol

Logic 8 is very CPU friendly, I can say that much. I never found Ableton Live 5 to be very taxing either, though. Pro Tools is.
But like you I use Ableton as a scratchpad, I love how it works, and Logic for the finishing touches. But that's just because I'm not good at Logic yet. Not fast at it.
Get them both! You'll be glad you did.

Guys - taking Logic pro 7 out live !
