How to "assign" MIDI sounds to

I need some help fixing my MIDI drums.
This is my setup: Roland TD-6V --> M-Audio Uno USB MIDI interface --> My macbook.
Recording works well, I can hear the playback of my drums coming out of Logic. That's all good.
But my snare, kick, and ride pads all have the same snare MIDI sound. For whatever reason, Logic thinks those three pads are one and the same. My hi-hat is messed up as well.
I've looked on other threads, did youtube searches, checked Logic's Help, and managed to find my way to the Mapped Environment menu. I changed the Output Notes to my desired drum sounds, yet when they are played, either on my drums or on the Capslock Keyboard, they still play the original, wrong sound.
Please help. If you can help me make my MIDI kit on Logic sound the way it does on my Roland's module, I'll name a song after you (seriously).
Thanks in advance!

You need to create a sampler instrument which maps the samples to notes, and can then be played in the EXS24 sampler.
Read the Instruments manual on the EXS24 and creating sampler instruments for the full skinny.

How to add midi sound?

Hi, I'm currently working on an RPG in Java. I heard of java.sound.midi.*; but not exactly here how to utilize this effectively. Some code example would be great. Thanks.

Thanks for the helpful link. I'm particuarly interested in this page...
http://jsresources.org/examples/LoopingMidiPlayer15.java.html
Since I'm using a japplet instead of an application, this would cause a security exception:
String strFilename = args[0];
File midiFile = new File(strFilename);
How can I use getCodeBase() to obtain my midi file from the server?

How do I get sound & video from my MacBook Pro (mid 2009)?

When I connect My MacBook Pro (mid 2009) to my HDMI TV I get a good picture but no sound. I use two cables, one fron the Mini DisplayPort and the other from the headphone jack. How do I get sound on my TV from my macbook pro?

Solution may be found if you search in the "More Like This" section over in the right column and by doing a forum search.

HT3576 how to assigne a unique sound to a single incoming e mail address and have it aleart when in lock screen 4s Iphone 6.13

how to assign a unique sound to a single incoming e mail address and have it alert when in lock screen on 4s Iphone 6.1.3
I receive emergency requests for service thru e mails. my old BB let you assign separate sounds for incoming e mail addresses. can I duplicate that with Iphone or MUST I be woken with each and every incoming e mail?

I have email messages alert sounds turned off except for VIP addresses (of which I have only one). That means I only get alerted for that one address.
To add a Contacts entry to VIP senders in iPhone Mail:
Open your list of mailboxes in iPhone Mail.
Tap the > button next to VIP.
Select Add VIP… at the list's end.
Tap the desired entry from your contacts.
Then, in Notifications>Mail, turn off the souds for your email account but enable them for VIP.
Note that all VIP emails will have the same tone. It's more like the Priority feature on a BB than custom text tones.
Best of luck.

Saved midi sounds not loading logic9

none of my midi sounds i save in a template gets saved. it defaults back to the first sound on my triton. when i click from one midi track to the next it defaults to the first sound. none of my sound are getting loaded.
what am i doing wrong..

So, here's an update to the problem, and to highlight, I decided to start fresh to demonstrate.
Okay, so, I created a new "concert" and only assigned one keyboard (Keyboard 1). The default sound was, of course, Suitcase Bright. When I select different sounds from 01 Pre-Mapped or 02 Software Instruments, everything seems normal. But, when I select different sounds from the 03 Electric Guitar, 04 Vocal, Audio Channel Strips, and Instrument Channel Strips patch libraries, the yellow Keyboard Layer disappears, and no sound plays like I described before.
So, for example, I went to Instrument Channel Strips > 10 Orchestral > 01 Woodwinds > Bassoon Legato. The Keyboard Layer disappears and there's no sound. Here is where the problem is: Upon further inspection(based on your steps), I went to MIDI Input within the Channel Strip and I discovered that it's automatically creating a new keyboard input (Keyboard 2) which I never created and it just doesn't exist in real life. That's why the Keyboard Layers are disappearing and no sound is coming out; it's trying to automatically move it over to a keyboard that's just not there.
Again, this only happens when selecting sounds from within the 03 Electric Guitar, 04 Vocal, Audio Channel Strips, and Instrument Channel Strips patch libraries. When I select a sound from 01 Pre-Mapped or 02 Software Instruments, the Keyboard Layers reappear and everything goes back to normal.
So, I'm not sure how to fix this ...

Editing the waveform of a MIDI sound

Hi all,
I'm trying to edit one of the MIDI sounds, specifically, I want the sound to cutoff sooner rather than having it linger.
What is the best way to do this?
My initial thought is to convert the software instrument (MIDI) into a wave file, then edit that wave file by deleting the "lingering" portion of the sound so that it cuts off the way I want it to. Then I can just paste that sound into the (not sure what it's called exactly) window that has all the tracks. It'd be even better to be able to assign that small wave file to a key on my MIDI controller. I've done something like this on Garageband so I assume it's possible to do on Logic.
Any help on how to pull this off with something similar to what I described above? Or even better, is there a simple way to do this? Thanks!

Hi
What Instrument are you using to create the 'sound'?
Most of Logic's Software Instruments have an 'Envelope' section. This is where you can adjust the ADSR of the sound (Attack (lead in), Decay, Sustain (how long actual sound lasts for), Release (length of trail...).
Here are some ways:
You can use the Sustain & Release parameter in the plugin to adjust the length.
You can use Track Automation and volume to cut the sound out too. (View > Track Automation, draw nodes for Volume, drag lines to create a fade out).
You can use Hyper draw (Region based automation) to do this.
You can bounce the MIDI region to an audio file (Solo track, File > Bounce), import audio file and in Sample Editor use the fade out function. (This destructively edits the audio file).
You can bounce the region to audio and in the Arrange area use the fade tool to non-destructively add a fade to the end of a region. Then use the Automation Curve tool to add a curve shape to the fade out.
There are many ways to do this

How to assign drum pads of mpk mini in Ultrabeat????

This question has probably been answered before but i could not for the life of me find a thread or response anywhere that helped me solve my issue which is:
I have an mpk mini controller it has 25 key keyboard, 8 drum pads with 2 banks, and 8 knobs. I am new to Logic and especially Ultrabeat and have been having major trouble when it comes to assigning my controller. Specifically i need help with how to assign the drum sounds in ultrabeat to the drum pads on my midi controller. I have heard that ultrabeat has a learn function but i cant seem to figure out how to use it in Ultrabeat. The keys on the keyboard work fine, when i hit them i can hear the drum sounds in Ultrabeat and can see the coresponding keys on the Ultrabeat interface lighting up so that is all well and good. But im trying to figure out how to program/assign my 16 pads(8pads w/ 2 banks) in Ultrabeat itself without having to use the editor software that came with my midi controller...is this possbile? I can see @ the top of the Ultrabeat window 4 drop down boxes grouped as "midi controller assignments" but when i click them and select "learn" nothing happens when i hit the notes with my mouse on Ultrabeat and then try to hit the pad i want that note to be assigned to. I know im missing a step here or doing something wrong.... Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

How do you assign certain sounds to certain triggers of a midi device in logic? I >cant figure it out for the life of me :\
You can create a Mapped Instrument object in the Logic Environment and cable to the Ezdrummer Channel strip. Set the Mapped Instr object to "No Port" and create a track for the Mapped Instr in the Arrange. Double click the M.I to open its dialog. You will find a column where you can change/transform the Note Pitches. For example SN1 from D1 to E1 etc. You can select the M.I track and record events on it. Note during play the note events will be transformed in real time but if try to record you will fined that your original notes are recorded. If want to record the transformed notes then you must patch the M.I between the Physical Input and the Sequencer Input in Click & Ports layer.

How to use custom sound effects

One of the few good things one could do in Windows was to assign any sound effect you wanted to use to just about any operating system or other event. For example, you could have Captain Pecard say "Minimize" whenever you minimized a window.
OS X (10.7 Lion in my case) doesn't make this as easy. If you want to add your own sound effects to the pre-installed sound effects you get when you open System Preferences → Sound → Sound Effects, you must manually add them to the correct folder after first converting them into .aiff format.
I've done all this successfully, but I don't know the last step, namely, how to assign the new sound to a 'Custom' event. I see my new sound files in the right place (System Preferences → Sound → Sound Effects), but it just says 'Custom' for the alert sount type.
Help would be appreciated.
Ted

So? Just select the name. BTW, all that does is select which one you want to use for ALERTs, nothing else. For anything else, such as those contained in
/System/Library/Components/CoreAudio.component/Contents/Resources/SystemSounds/f inder/ you need to rename the new sound as the original and put them into that same location.

Mapping MIDI sounds in GB3

I record drum tracks via my Roland V-Drums and Cakewalk/Sonar. I save them as .mid files then drag them on to my GB3 app for playback. Does anyone know how to change the instrument assignments in GB3? Not all the sounds from my drum kit are audible and some don't seem to be mapped correctly - trigger the wrong instrument. Is there a way to see/tweak the instrument sounds in GB3? Can this be done via Apple's MIDI Mgr utility? I've tried working w/ a couple of the preset GB3 drum kits(rock, pop kits) but still not sounding right. Would be great if I could create my own GarageBand drum kit that maps 1:1 w/ the instrumentation in my Roland TD-20. Any tips/suggestions? Anyone using GB3 to record V-Drums? And is there a version of GB that works w/ an old G3 iMac DV?
Thanks!

so wait. I can go to a web site that offers
soundfonts(midi sounds right?) and somehow use them
within GB?
That's what I said. Yes.

How to assign MMC with an AKAI MPD-24

Hi,
I got a problem.
I assigned each potentiometer of my MPD-24 very easily in Logic.
But I don't know how to assign the MMC commands (Play, stop, rec...).
I tried the same way I did for the potentiometers but it does not work !
Have you got any idea about that ?
Thanks

Cool un français.... je vais pouvoir expliquer plus clairement.
en haut à gauche de Logic, tu as un menu "Préférences" et un "réglages" C'est dans un de ces deux-là... mais je pense que c'est dans "préférences puis "midi" (ou bien réglages" "surface de controle" (désolé je suis pas devant là je peux pas vérifier).
A un endroit il y a une case à cocher "apprendre MMC"... tu coches.
Ensuite, en bas de la fenêtre principale de logic, à coté du métronome tu as un bouton "synchro" avec un S dessus. Tu cliques... tes pistes s'allume en jaune... et là normalement ça marche !!

Is it possible to assign MIDI control to change tempo?

I would like to be able to change tempo (say, from 120 to 180 bpm) by using a fader from a MIDI keyboard (Edirol PCR-30). I can assign MIDI commands to Logic's buttons, volume, pan... but I can't figure how to do it with tempo. Any help would be appreciated.

Environment-->New-->Fader-->Specials-->Tempo Control
You get a fader which you can then assign a MIDI control command to.
I've heard somewhere that this is really buggy in recent years so use at your own risk, but at least in theory that's how you do it.

[b]how to assign whole expression to a temporary variable[/b][/b]

Good afternun. Can someone help me how to assign the whole expression to a temporary variable. The expression is
id = catDao.findByPK(info.getCategoryId());
Thanks in advance and may I know how to validate the temporary variable?

You can do this with an anonymous class and a command pattern.
interface LazyEval {
public Object getValue();
LazyEval le = new LazyEval() {
public Object getValue() {
return catDao.findByPK(info.getCategoryId());
id = le.getValue();However, this sound like a solution to a problem which should be done another way.

HT201272 I purchased a ringtone from itunes store on my I phone 5 but cannot find how to assign it to my ringtone

I purchased a ringtone from itunes store on my iphone5 but cannot find how to assign it as my ringtone. Can anyone offer suggestions please

Help again! lol
tonight I tried to download a ringtone to my iPhone 5. Picked out the one I wanted, clicked on "buy" and was asked for my p/w & if I wanted to assign it to a contact. Yes, entered correct p/w & yes. NO DOWNLOAD - it doesn't show up in my Ringtones under "Sounds" or "Text Tones" and a search of my phone doesn't show it. So, even though my balance was subtracted the cost, I tried again....still doesn't show up on the phone OR in iTunes on my iMac or iPad - and I was charged for it again!! ETA: It doesn't even show up in recent purchases.?!?
iMatch is turned on in all devices and I noticed that in iTunes on my iMac, there is NO tab for "Ringtones" or "Tones" in the top menu across my iTunes screen....however, in my library on the Mac there IS a line item for ringtones, but it's empty when I click on it. This is the 2nd ringtone I've purchased that doesn't show up; thrtefore I cannot use either one but have been charged for both...GRRR
I also noticed tonight that a lot of my options in my Library on the Mac are "grayed out" so I can't even get into them. Yes, I'm signed in & all devices are
authorized. Can't even sync my iPhone & yes I checked that it's marked on both devices. *sigh*
What do I need to do? The closest Apple store is over an hour away from me. Should I reset iTunes or the iPhone (or both)? Not really what I want to do on my long weekend now that I'm finally down to 2 jobs 6 days a week!
TIA for any help anyone can give me!
(BTW, it turned out the other ringtone I'd purchased on 12/1/11 was no longer available (3rd ringtone - actually 1st so the ones in this question are #'s 2 & 3), and Apple was kind enough to give me some free songs.)

Awe 32 Midi sound for Soundblaster Audigy L

I long time ago bought the good old awe32 ISA card. In my opinion this card had the best midi sound there ever was.... but back to the point. In lack of a ISA slot in my PC i now use a soundblaster audigy LS.But someone told me i can somewhere in the galaxy download a so called Sound Bank or Sound Font so my midi files and old dos games (Dosbox) could sound just like the old awe 32 Soundblaster card. But i could nowhere find such files. And even if i would find something i don?t know how to use them. I hope someone can help me.

Hi
I'm not sure if your card is SoundFont capable but ...
Here is some free SoundFont banks :

You don't, none of the Roland sounds are ever transferred to Logic.
MIDI has nothing to with sound, it's only a trigger that activates the sounds in the Roland.
I have a couple of 1080's in a rack, their audio outputs run into a mixing desk, from there they can be routed to my audio card inputs.
