Help!...Playback delay in Logic Express 9

I have been having problems with a delay in the tempo when playing back a recorded track. Latency is not an issue when recording and all sounds well through the monitors during track recording but when I play the recorded track back it is out of tempo with the project.
This is not isolated to one project but is global for the entire program even if I start a new project with zero plug-ins on the channel strips.
I have updated my interface's firmware as well as updating the most recent version of Logic with no changes.
I have restarted my iMac throughout each step with no changes.
I am considering un-installing/re-installing Logic with reluctance but may have no other choice if nobody has suggestions.

Sorry that you are having the same issue but it is good to know that I am not alone and better to have someone else to collaborate with on this problem...
I'll be picking up my iMac from the Apple repair center tomorrow so I will let you know if the delay is definitely fixed when I get reconnected to all my gear...
The repair tech. told me on the phone that he made a few changes to my latency settings but latency was never an issue. However he did say that my mac was bogged down and that he spoke with other Logic users who think the issue is my macs memory...I have 4GB of available memory and most users have 8-10GB. He told me that if the problem still persists that I should consider upgrading my memory...
Don't know if this helps you at all but I will let you know tomorrow if the delay is gone or if more memory might be my next step in the process. Good luck until then...

Help Required Please with Logic Express and Yamaha O1X

Hi, I'm a new Logic and Mac user. I have just installed Logic Express and I am trying to get my Yamaha O1X mixer/ interface to work. I have the MLAN Tools installed and I can load a demo song into Logic. The meters on my Mixer are moving, I just cannot hear any sound. Doesanyone know the correct way to set this up to work correctly??
I Mac 20" Mac OS X (10.4.9) Intel Dual Core 2.46 Ghz with 2GB Ram

Answer these questions for me:
Is the Monitor A/B switch green or off?
Do you have the faders 1/2 raised on the 01X in the INST tab, and is the Stereo fader raised?
Where is your amp/speakers connected to on the O1X?
Should be connected to monitor L/R out with the A/B switch off (not green).
If you load the logic demo are the meters moving?
Is Logic selected as your DAW on the O1X utility tab?
In your AMS settings....MLAN should be selected for the inputs and outputs
Make sure you did This!!!!
To monitor your computer's audio outs via the 01X go to the surface of the 01X. In the upper right click INTERNAL MODE (2nd button from left, top of the 01x next to REMOTE).
Go to the right of the 01x there are 5 white buttons for
AUDIO/INST/MIDI/BUS/AUX/OTHER. Choose INST - bring up the faders on Channels 1 and 2. Pan them left and right by clicking PAN (one the surface of the 01X in the PAGE area once, then using the knobs beneath the green screen mLAN 1 and mLAN 2 and spinning the knobs left and right), and control your master volume with the master fader. Use the headphone volume to adjust output level.
Very important......if you did all of this, play a song from itunes see if there is audio if not you have something connected wrong.
If you get it from itunes and not logic....then we need to look at logic!
You need to run logics setup assitant and make sure in the controller setup the O1X is showing! Click rebuild defaults in the controller tab of logic....you should see the faders move!
let me know....i will stick with ya till we get it working.

Can logic express slow down or change the key from playbacks like the program "Amazing slowdowner"?r

Hello,
I'm a new member and I'm actually trying to work with garage band to record voice and playback. Can "logic express" Vs. 8.0 slow down or change the key from playbacks like the program "Amazing slowdowner"? This is a programm wich costs 50 US Dollar and I want to decide if i buy it or not.
What is the hgreatest different between "garage band" and logic express 8.0? Who can hepl me, which is the right thing for me. I find it difficult to find out which effects are the best only to record my voice with playback.
Thanks for your advices.

If you want to slow down the audio why not download a program from ABRSM called Speedshifter- its free and is very good. you could export the audio from Logic and open the MP3 file with speed shifter. I think speedshifter may also have the ability to alter the pitch as well. I use it for Flute practice- its very useful !

Logic Express won't open in Snow Leopard

I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard. Now, when I try to open Logic Express 7, the program immediately quits, with the error message below. I uninstalled/reinstalled and the problem still happens. I have also checked for software updates and no luck.
I already searched these forums. While it seems there are some other problems like this out there, I did not see a helpful answer.
Process: Logic Express [64105]
Path: /Applications/Logic Express.app/Contents/MacOS/Logic Express

I am fairly certain logic 7 is not compatible with Snow Leopard.

Cannot Record Audio using Logic Express 7.0.0 on 13" Macbook

Help! I have Logic Express 7.0.0 and am running it in on an Intel model Macbook 1.8Ghz, 13''. I do not have an external soundcard. Will this version of Logic Express allow me to record live audio if I do not have an external soundcard? I only want to be able to record & edit a single audio track, so thought I might be able to. I cannot seem to get the 'R' (Record) button to appear despite activating it in the >View< section, so I cannot arm any tracks, and so cannot record. Is there a bug with this version of Logic and the Intel Macs? Do I need to update? If so, what would be the best way to update?
Regards,
Lee

Intel Macbook 1.8Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.8) No External Soundcard

I updated to Logic Express 7.0.1 successfully but the problem wasn't solved. Now if I try to update to Logic Express 7.2.0 it says that it cannot find the correct version of Logic Express. Im not sure how updating works - Can Logic Express 7.0.1 be updated to Logic Express 7.2.0?

Logic Express with MBox

Can someone please help.Can I use Logic Express with an MBox and if so how.

Hey Roma,
welcome to the forum!
Assumming you had the drivers installed, (in Logic) go to the audio menu>audio hardware & drivers>Driver (change from built in audio to Digidesign HW (MBox), Relaunch, that's it.
((Click on (say) audio 1 (to select track) Press R to arm it and you shoud now have sound level on metters. Don't forget the I/O in logic is audio 1 = input 1, audio 2 = input 2, audio 3 = input 1, audio 4 = input 2 and so on (by default))
Kiddly regards,
Jorge

Playback Stops Itself In Logic Express 9 - Help!

Hi, I've never used these forums before, so I'm sorry for anything I do wrong!
I have the latest version of Logic Express 9 on A 2.53Ghz, 8GB macbook pro, and have been working on a MIDI and audio project, which was playing all the way through, and working fine until just now. It stops playing, and will not start playing at any point after bar 77.4 - i have no idea why it's doing this - please explain how to fix this or what's up!
Cheers!

Do you have the end marker set to 77.4 accidentally?

LOGIC EXPRESS 9 HELP!

what features does logic express 9 have for vocal editing like reverb delay?

Hi,
This is the kind of broad question which would be best researched by googling.
I just did a Google search for "logic express 9 vocal editing":
I quickly found this link to the 195 page Logic Express 9 Effects PDF file.( It was the 6th entry on Google's list.):
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicexpress/effects/Logic%20Express%209%20Eff ects%20(en).pdf
You can download that file and search it for the word "vocal". I tried it and got 51 matches.
Additionally, a Google search has the potential to find many other useful resources for more nuanced information including related youtube videos, recommendations, evaluation, tips, etc.
When you do a Google search, it automatically looks at related information in all of the Logic Apple Support Communities, such as this one, along with anything else it can find.
I hope this helps,
John

No Sound from Logic Express 8 during track playback?

Hi and Help. I am probably being stupid and I guess this is simple to clear up. I have read the manual but I can't find a resolution (probably miussed that to!). Anyway the problem is this, I have just bought Logic Express 8, set up was fine on my macbook pro intel core duo which is also linked to logitach Z-10 speakers (actually good!). Upon opening Logic I set up a track (by the way Core Audio is on) and drag a loop from the brouser into a new track, it locates in the track and I play it back, nothing, not a sound or blip on the channel indicator. I can audition the loop in the brouser and it plays fine. Why no sound playback from the track??
Can you help please, I have odviously missed something simple but I don't know what it is.

Well yes I was being stupid. I have resolved the issue, it was down to understanding terminalogy. All is working.

Help! Logic Express 8 does not work on my Mac Pro with OS 10.5.1

Hello, I hope somebody around here is able to help me.
I have got a new Mac Pro with one Quad core processor since yesterday and it works fine except for Logic Express 8 (version 8.0.1). Whenever I start Logic the program crashes as soon as "Core Audio initialisieren" is shown in the display. I have tried to reinstall the program, deleted it completely and installed it again. It is always the same.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? What can I do about it? I am a musician and I really need Logic Express to run.

Confused. 10.6 is DVD based. Only Lion and above are downloads.
And best install is not to upgrade. Do a clean install - on another drive.
Corrupt partition tables or bad sectors or no room to adjust the partitions or the directory is corrupt.
ERASE the drive if Repair Disk didn't work.

PLease help me with the best product to buy, Logic Express, which one?

Hi,
I have a macbook pro snow leopard 10.6.4 with garageband 09. I need a very simple to use editing and mastering program and wondered if the logic express would be best suited to my needs. If so, Then WHICH logic express is the easiest to learn that is compatible with my computer an with garageband 09?
I am not an engineer, so I need something user friendly, and self help along the way. Any suggestions on what to purchase would be great, and money IS a factor. If the logic express program would be best, does it have to be an '09 program?
So, What would be the best program for a beginner who needs good results? It seems with some of what i have read that some of these programs replace the garageband? I like garageband.
Help?!

I upgraded from GB to LE8 a few months ago and whilst there is a steeper learning curve it is much better, you won't regret it. If you're wanting to just do simple editing then LE 8 & 9 are pretty similar (i picked up LE8 very cheaply on ebay then decided to upgrade to 9 once I'd got my head around it to take advantage of flextime editing & the drum replacer). You'll find all the things you do in GB much easier, quicker, & more effective in Logic once you've learned how to use it. Both 8 or 9 are great for the relative lack of outlay, just depends how much money you want to spend is my advice.

I just installed Lion and the newest version of Logic express 9 (9.1.5) and every time i playback audio I get this error message: [Disk is too slow or System Overload. (-10010) . Never had any issues before now...

I just installed OSX Lion (10.7.2) and updated to the newest version of Logic express (9.1.5) on a macbook and every time I playback audio I get this error message: [Disk is too slow or System Overload. (-10010) The Sudden Motion Sensor may have parked the hard drive head, or the disk performance is not sufficient to read or write all audio tracks, or the system was not able to process all data in time]
Never had any issues before now... any ideas?

Have a look into the Preferences folder (YourUserFolder/Libraries/Preferences/) and trash all Logic preferences.
You'll have to setup the program again.
cheers

Hardware compressor and am not quite sure how to use it in logic express 9. Please help???

I recently bought a dbx hardware compressor and am not quite sure how to use it in logic express 9. I hav a focusrite saffire 6 usb audio interface and am not sure how to use it in logic. Please help???

Hi Ujjawal,
Use the Tab-order property of IR object.
In design mode, select the any command button, right click and select the property. you will find the window for "Tab-Order". It lists all the objects available in that dashboard. Here you can arrange the tab order..
Hope it will help you.
Thanks & Regards,
Mohit Jain

Pancenter,
Thanks for the response, but I do not have a midi interface. I am using a midi to usb connector cable, thus bypassing the need for a Midi interface.
The Mac reads the USB cable as a midi device, but not the keyboard that I am trying to use as a controller. I have tried it with my korg sp 300 and with my Nord Electro 2.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Tristan
Tristan...
This is what you have, correct?
http://www.alesis.com/usbmidicable
This from Alesis..
"The AudioLink Series USB cable receives and outputs MIDI signal thanks to its internal interface. The USB-MIDI Cable connects plug-and-play to your Mac or PC for an all-in-one USB-MIDI solution."
Notice, -internal interface-. What you have is a simple USB MIDI Interface. Most MIDI interfaces are USB.
My point is (was), MIDI OUT of the Korg goes to the connector marked MIDI IN on the Alesis, those new to MIDI often get this wrong.
