How to access audio instruments as midi channels from midi keyboard?

Hi!
This is my first post here.
I use mostly Logic Pro 7 as a sound module with my keyboard. I have a song file in Logic that I made some time ago, where I've linked every audio instrument to a corresponding audio channel (same midi channel). All channels are in record mode, and thus every audio instrument is assigned a midi channel - and I can play different audio instruments by changing the midi channel on my midi keyboard.
Now, I want to create more tracks, so I can have more instruments to choose between. That doesn't work.. I try to make a new logic file and do the same thing with more channels, but I can't remeber how I made this work in the first place. I've been trying for hours and hours, and I'm going nuts here.
I would extremely grateful if anyone could tell me how this is done.
(No rewire/extra software is necessary.)
Thanks for reading.

Welcome!
It's fairly straightforward. On each audio instrument, assign a MIDI channel in the parameter box - so eg Audio Instrument 1 is set to MIDI channel 1, Audio Instrument 2 is set to channel 2 etc.
The key part is in your song settings "File -> Song Settings -> Recording" to make sure "Auto demix by even channel" is ticked.
Now, shift-click on the record buttons for all your audio instruments, and when you send on MIDI channel 1, you'll play the first one, switching to channel 2 you'll play the second one, and so on.
The max you can do is 16 channels at once, afaik, as the sequencer input doesn't retain port info (which is a bit of a shortcoming in my book, but there you go...)

  • Who's gonna fix this problem? Audio instruments don't play from downbeat.

    Time to raise awareness, I think, on another serious Logic problem -- that Logic can't play back notes from audio plugs if playback starts from a downbeat.
    Over the past three days I've been working on a highly complex string arrangement, creating within Logic both a mockup and the score. During these few days I would estimate that at least 20% of my time was wasted as I wrestled with Logic's inability to play back audio instruments when starting Logic from the start of a measure.
    The plugs I was using were GPO and EXS-24, both exhibiting the same errant behavior.
    The situation here is an embarrassment for Apple, the Logic team, and me, the end user.
    Why?
    Well, during the course of my writing and mocking up this arrangement, the producer would call from time to time asking me to play him various sections over the phone. And when doing so, I'd always start playback a fraction of a beat before the downbeat (the only known way to get Logic to actually play the upcoming downbeat notes). After a while of this kind of playback it started to annoy him greatly.
    When he asked whythehell I couldn't just start playback from THE TOP of a section, I had to explain to him that Logic has a bug where it can't play back notes from a downbeat. After he stopped laughing, he commented that he couldn't understand why "a guy like me" was using such a POS program. I won't repeat the rest of his reply here in public, but suffice it to say that despite the arrangement I was writing (which he LOVED), I was professionally embarrassed because my tools showed up as highly shabby in front of this very well-known producer.
    As I said, the only known workaround is to start playback from before the downbeat, i.e., an 1/8 note or so ahead, and having to contantly use the mouse (or type in values) for my left locator to play back the song from various sections proved to be ab-so-lute-ly excruciating over the course of three pressure-filled days.
    And... it's not like an 1/8 note before the down beat was always the correct amount needed to get Logic to play back the downbeat notes. So each and every setting of the left locator proved to be AN EXPERIMENT! This meant that playback of various sections would not always commence properly, forcing me to re-adjust the left locator and see what happened...
    This problem is over a year old in Logic 7. I'm still on 7.1.1, but from what I've read here this situation remains a problem in the latest version of the software as well.
    So... who's going to fix this problem? And when?

    Sorry not to have been more help iS.
    I hadn't really noticed it before, and not to imply that you were wrong, but you're right.
    I guess I've always had a pre-roll and no reason to get upset with it, but now you've bought my attention to it, it's really going to Richard me off! (sorry to all Richards out there).
    As for the RAM - Vienna Instr (VI) is very greedy requiring almost all my RAM just for the Strings and WWds. This gets better as you start optimizing each instrument, but early stages can leave you with just 2-300 Mb and a very sluggish response. This means instruments fail to enter and the lines go astray.
    I'm getting used to it now, and tend to bounce tracks to audio once I know they're ready, even after optimizing (cleans up the production too) but I want to feed my machine RAM and it's virtually satiated already.
    Time for an upgrade and 16 glorious Gb to gorge on. (UHMMMMMmmmmmm - Maybe there's a market for renting out RAM if not a computer.)
    As for the EXS and only six audio instruments - can't really explain that, though by your own account (and others) it falls within the known failings of the EXS itself as well as Logic. The concern that comes to mind is that Apple seem poor at responding to such complaints and requests to fix things - look at the undo removing time and key signatures issue, and I've spoken to people about other issues too found in the scoring window, and nothing.
    How do we, the voiced users, get such things actually mended?
    And on that joyful thought, I shall depart until tomorrow.
    Fair ye well - and thanks for your help.

  • How to  access the ORACLE APPS table structures from SAP

    Hi Experts,
        How to  access the ORACLE APPS table structures from SAP? Is it possible from SAP?
    Thanks in advance
    Thomas

    Hi Silviya,
    you can access this database using a technique called DB Multiconnect - sometimes written as multi-connect.
    Search the SAP documentation and notes for this term and you will find how to do it.
    Essentially you configure the remote database connection via transaction DBCON.
    If your SAP system is not running on Oracle you will need to install the db-specific kernel files for Oracle along with the Oracel db client software - SQL*Net.
    Then you can access the Oracle database from ABAP using native-SQL. It works a treat!

  • How to access and display a Web Service from a WSDL in JSP or JSTL ?

    Dear All,
    We need to access a Web Service which is hosted as WSDL How to access a WSDL file from JSP or JSTL, parse and display the SOAP response in JSP page.
    Any simple example or URL as reference to an example will be useful for me.
    It seems io tags of jakarta is able to send soap message, but how to display it in JSP.
    Yours,
    Sankar.B

    Dear Sir,
    Yes. I would like to know more about the Forte and how to consume WSDL file from JSTL. The following are my querirs.
    1. How to connect the declared JNDI from a JSP page. i.e: the Datasource - ex: booksDS
    2. We connect the Tomcat server using JNDI as jdbc/scott. But, if I give jdbc/scott in JSTL as datasource={jdbc/scott}, we could not able to connect. We use the following code in a JSP page to connect the DB from a JSP page. (Its quite easy to modify, so we use the connection in a JSP page.)
    3. How to Consume a WSDL url from JSTL. Ex: If there is a URL : http://localhost/ws/MathService.asmx?wsdl OR http://www.xmethods.com/test/BabelFish
    4. How to display the result. We tried via SOAP from io taglib of Jakarta, but gives us an SOAP (it also looks like xml) response. But, how to use the value from that soap response in IE client thru JSTL/JSP.
    5. Whether this JSTL tool will be available with Forte Enterprise/Community Edition. If so EE, whats the price.
    Please Reply Immediatly. We tried, trying, going to try to display a wsdl response, but not able to display in IE thru JSP/JSTL. But, weve tested the www.gotdotnet.com examples of asp.net web services, we are thru. Its quite easy it seems in .NET. But, we feel whether even there is not even one example in JSTL/ Java Web Services Dev. Pack to utilise a web service in full cycle. The example which uve given is thru servlets. We dont use servlets. Cos, its very easy to edit JSP pages, instead of compiling the serv. and using it.
    I hope ull reply for all the above queries, since ur from SUN.
    Expecting your fav. reply.
    Yours,

  • How to access my video stream on icloud from mac

    I have pictures and videos on my shared stream that I took/recorded from my iPhone 5S. I don't know how to access these files from may MacBook Pro because I want to move these files to my hard drive on my MacBook Pro. Please help. Thank you!

    iCloud requires OS X 10.7.5 or higher, and iCloud photo sharing (which includes shared videos) requires OS X Mavericks v10.9 and either iPhoto '11 version 9.5 or Aperture 3.5.  Without these, you can't access the shared stream videos on your Mac.  However, at the present time you cannot save a shared video from a shared stream anyway, you can only view it.  If you want it on your Mac you’ll need to import the video to iPhoto from your camera roll using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

  • How to access to SSO username and password from JPDK

    Hello
    Does anybody know how to access, from Java PDK, to SSO username
    and password of user, currently connected to portal.
    Thank's,
    Tomaz Podbersic

    The portal user's password is one way hash algorithm (MD5) that
    cannot be reversed.
    What you'll have to do is setup a "External Application" and
    save an alternate username/password profile in that area. It
    requires the user to first enter that data (but only 1 time) the
    first time into that application.
    ===========================================
    <HELP NOTE>
    If anyone knows of an API to populate those tables when seeding
    or creating the user names to also seed or create the "external
    applications" user /pass this would be helpful.
    ============================================
    JSP java code:
    ====================
    PortletRenderRequest portletRequest = (PortletRenderRequest)
    request.getAttribute (HttpProvider.PORTLET_RENDER_REQUEST);
    ProviderUser myUser=(ProviderUser) portletRequest.getUser();
    =====================
    From this object instance you can get the user's name, and other
    Portal session info. NOT password.
    The External Application username & password is a bit more
    tricky to get.

  • How to access an Oracle Lite 10.2 from native VC++ 2005 mobile app

    Hi,
    I'm developing a MS VC++ 2005 mobile app than will run on Mobile 5 ARM devices. This app needs to connect to an Oracle Lite 10.2 Lite database that is currently installed on those devices.
    I know that the MFC and ATL libraries are not "fully" supported on the mobile platform I need, so I need a way to connect to the Lite database, as those libraries don't provide that kind of functionality.
    I've been looking around for ways to connect to a Lite Database using VC++ 2005 native, but nothing seems to work!
    I've tried SODA but I simply couldn't connect to the database. After that, I've tried OLEDB, as I folowed articles on adapting MFC oledb.h to the mobile platform. Useless, because the articles focused only SQL Server CE.
    Anyone can give me a clue how to access the lite database from VC++ 2005?
    Isn't there any library like the Oracle.DataAccess.Lite_wce.dll for the CF.NET I can use?
    Thanks in advance.
    -- Manuel Costa

    Marc,
    Where can I find those libraries? Are they available to download in the Oracle site?
    The SODA Api has very few documentation, only an Oracle HTML document.
    Do you know any links with useful tips and examples I can use?
    By the way, the Soda API I tried implemented the try-catch exception handling using a special lib (not the try-catch available in the standard VC++ 2005). Has this been changed in the more recent versions you pointed out?
    Thanks in advance.

  • How to access (any) soap / rest web services from widget

    A blog entry about this topic would be greatly appreciated I think, not only by me.

    As promised, below is the js lib source code. I did not see the attachement option, so you can just create a text file and save it with .js extension.
              function getHdrData( FuncName ) {
                return '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>' +
                          '<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" ' +
                                             'xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" ' +
                                             'xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">' +
                          '<SOAP-ENV:Header><sapsess:Session ' +
                                    'xmlns:sapsess="http://www.sap.com/webas/630/soap/features/session/">' +
                                    '<enableSession>true</enableSession></sapsess:Session>'+
                          '</SOAP-ENV:Header><SOAP-ENV:Body><ns1:' +
                          FuncName +
                          ' xmlns:ns1=\'urn:sap-com:document:sap:soap:functions:mc-style\'>';
              function addVar ( VarName, VarValue ) {
                return '<' + VarName + '>' + VarValue  + '</' + VarName + '>';
              function getFtrData( FuncName ) {
              return '</ns1:' + FuncName + '></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>';
              function setTable ( TblName, TblType) {
                   return '<' + TblName + ' xsi:type=\'ns1:' + TblType + '\'>';
              function closeTable ( TblName) {
                   return '</' + TblName + '>';
              function startEntry( ) {
                   return '<item>';
              function endEntry( ) {
                   return '</item>';
    So the following is the basic on how to use this library:
    * Set up SOAP envelope
    * Get the header data
    getHdrData( SOAP operation name )
    * If the web service set up the table and record start tags
    setTable( variable name, table type ) - Optional
    Set new record tag: startEntry() ? Optional
    * Set up the fieldname or variable name
    addVar( variable name, variable value )
    * Set up the table and record end tags
    endEntry() ? Optional
    closeTable( variable name ) ? Optional
    * Set up the footer SOAP envelope
    Set footer data: getFtrData(SOAP operation name )
    So hopefully that will help you consume SAP Published web services.
