How to use guitar rig 3 in logic

Hi everyone
I am trying guitar rig 3 demo, and one of the features is the capabilities to open the app in logic or garageband and use all the features directly while composing music in Logic.
question: how do you load it? i am used to cubase VST and VST and DX plugins, so i am not really sure how a Mac works.
Thanks!

is my question too dumb to get an answer? wow...would never expect to see no replies for a question like that

Using guitar rig in logic -9 but not getting same sound....

Hey fellow logic users
Ok heres the problem ( cut to the chase ) I am hooking up my guitar directly to the audio box direct to input 1 I have guitar rig in my plug in section now when i play the song and want to play along It comes out clean, but when i press record enable it plays like the guitar rig sample i created then when i press the space bar to start playback to practice it it plays clean but then whe i record it comes out slightly not the way it sounds when not recording I hope this is understandable lol : ) what do I need to do to make what I sound like in the guitar rig while rehearshing it so it comes out the same and not clean. I put the playback knob on my audio box in the middle so i can hear the drums bass e.t.c aong with the guitar but still no dirty sound during rhearsal before recording Thanks

Check under the audio menu options that "auto input monitor" or something like that, is enabled.

Using Guitar Rig 4 / Amplitube 3 in Logic Pro

Hi,
I'm using Guitar Rig 4 and Amplitube 3 as inserts in my Logic 9 projects and all is working fine.
However neither GR4 or A3 respond to MIDI cc changes from my Apogee GIO foot controller. I've been able to get both products to respond correctly to patch/stompbox changes on the Apogee GIO when used "stand alone".
It looks like when used as an "insert" the Apogee Gio MIDI cc info is not getting thru - When using Ampdesigner/Pedelboard (which I don't very often) the Apogee GIO MIDI cc functions correctly.
Is there a way of getting the MIDI CC messages thru to an insert?
Thanks for you help

Insert them as "Midi controlled AU" Plugs into an instrument slot, there is an xtra folder for those Plug-Ins and many manufacturers supply these versions.

Using Guitar Rig

Think I found some limitations on using Guitar Rig with Mainstage. I have also posted this on NI's forums for some sort of resolution.
It appears, even though you can control just about every other parameter of GR in Mainstage, you are not able to assign a Mainstage controller to a GR controller. Therefore any mappings within GR you have assigned to a controller (i.e. effect on/off, parameter moifier, etc.), you can not set that controller to be set by Mainstage. Also, I see no way to change the GR patch directly within Mainstage as appears to be available on such things as the EXS.
Also, you are not able to set GR as a software instrument with the guitar input on the sidechain within Mainstage. You still can in Logic Pro, but it is not available in Mainstage. Perhaps this is why those patches and controller assignments can not be controlled?
Anyone have any idea how to get this functionality working in Mainstage?

Realtime Playing of Guitar Rig thru Logic: FW800 interface?

Hi , it would simplify my life so much to be able to play my N.I. Guitar Rig thru logic as a plugin. I'm about to get the G5 Quad and am wondering about the metric halo 2882(which is FW 400) or the fireface 800. is there a better chance of ultra-low latency thru FW 800 ? I've read that people are playing in realtime through logic , a drummer i spoke with said he's plying the BFD plugin in realtime, so that seems pretty promising, but will i be able to do that with a firewire interface? i have Motu 2408 now but i'm selling it to switch to the quad.

I use GuitarRig all the time and have no latency issues using a Fireface 800. Both the Fireface and the 2882/ULN2 have great and fast converters so there shouldn't be much difference there. However, drivers are the most important. RME's drivers are excellent and the actual hardware does its own metering calculations so you have realtime results in the RME mixer and the host CPU doesn't have to any extra background processing for the driver. I would assume that MH hardware/drivers operate the same way.
One thing to clarify, though, is that you can sum hardware inputs into the DAW mixer using RME's mixer. It's probably a less intuitive process compared to the MH mixer, but it's functionality still resides in RME's TotalMix software.
90% of my sessions are recorded at 24/48 and I usually use a 128 sample buffer without noticeable latency. I've even tried 256 and didn't find it noticeable either. For comparison, I perceive the same amount of latency (which is pretty negligable) when playing through AmpFarm on PT HD Accel, and GuitarRig through the Fireface 800 with a 128 sample buffer (both sessions @ 24/48)
Hope this helps.

How to use pianoteq sounds in logic pro?

How to use pianoteq sounds in logic pro? I've got an iMac 3.6 Ghz., intel core i5, OS 10.8.5. I want to be able to use my Bluthner piano sound (which is an add-on in pianoteq) in Logic Pro X (10.0.4).

Hi
Try this in a new empty project:
In the New Tracks box select a software instrument track, and un-check the Open Library box
You will see a track plus the channel in the Mixer
Click on the Input "Inst" button, and you will see a menu like this
Correctly installed 3rd party 64bit AU plugins will be in the AU Instruments sub-menu.

How to use Setup Assistant in Logic Pro 8?

How to use Setup Assistant in Logic Pro 8? I can't find it! even in the User Manuel!
Also, where can we setup the monitor number like we used to set '2 monitor ' in Logic Pro 7's setup assistant
Thanks!

I've been using Logic on two monitors for years. Screensets extend over all the monitors your computer sees, you can position windows on one, or the other, or size them to fit over both, so you can happily have for instance an arrange window on one monitor, and a mixer window on the other monitor, or stretch a giant arrange window over both...

Anyone using Guitar Rig 2 in Logic?

I'm having trouble getting GR 2 to work in logic. It works fine as a stand alone but does not work in logic! If anyone can advise me on what I might do to rectify this problem I could sure use it. It's holding up a studio project and I'm not getting much help from Native Instruments support.

Hmmm, I dunno-the concensus in the NI GR forum is the
same? Is it just the driver that's bad or did the
patch fix it?
Hi Justin,
May be you could give me a blow by blow discription of how to make this piece of S**t work. I am still getting no input into logic, I can hear the metronome but no imput from the strat at all.
Here's what I'm using:
G5 duel 2 gig processor
Dididesign 192 digital interface
Mackie digital console DXB 200
the AU version of guitar rig 2 loaded
logic version 7.1.1
OPEN AUDIO CHANNEL - load plug-in guitar rig
I have tried..... out of the guitar into pedal board, then out of the pedal board into the Console - NOTHING
Out of the guitar straight into the console - NOTHING
It does work as a stand alone through the console but so does everything else except guitar rig, but not in Logic!
Here's the really wierd part you can hear the metronome when the audio channel is armed and record is going - Still no guitar input at all.
Am I just doing something stupid? is the AU version not working? Do I need to load the VST? and help from you is always Greatly Appreciated, this is killing me time wise.
Thanks again guys,
Mark

Using Guitar Rig 5 in MainStage

Hello all!
I'm just getting started with MainStage, and so far quite liking the possibilities.
However, I've hit one thing which seems to be an issue for me, assuming I've understood it correctly. Each patch seems to have it's own channel strips, with it's own AU instruments etc... which to me seems a bad idea. Surely in this state, I will end up having hundreds of AUs running for the same software, which would slow things down?
On top of that, I'm running keyboard, guitar and vocal through Mainstage. All for me, as I switch what I'm doing depending on the song we're performing (and sometimes mid-song). However, this means I may sometimes want to change a guitar patch while keeping my keyboard the same, or vice versa.
So, to my question; is there a way to change AU presets without changing MainStage patch? I mainly need to do this with Guitar Rig 5 from NI, but I'd also quite like to do it with Massive and Reaktor too.
Not quite sure I've worded that very well, so an example:
I have a MainStage layout set up, which has my vocal going through clean with maybe some EQ etc. I've also got a guitar running through Guitar Rig 5, and my keyboard into Massive. During a song, I start off on keys playing Fat Bass 1 on my keys in Massive for the intro, switch to a distortion for the verse with my guitar, then Fat Bass 2 for the chorus in Massive. Maybe later I'll want a clean guitar in a bridge or something too, with some string hits thrown in from Massive again.
The way MainStage is set out currently, I'd need a patch for each combination, which would leave me with at least 3 "patches" for one song and three instances each of Massive and GR running. I'd much prefer to just send in a control message to change the presets in Massive and Guitar Rig.
Running on a 2014 15" MacBook Pro, 2.2GHz i7/16GB RAM/256GB SSD.
Thanks

I haven't been able to find a way to get it to work with Guitar Rig yet, but for Massive (and presumably Reaktor) I have found a solution. First, create an instance in MainStage, load it with Massive and load the presets you would like to use into Massive's preset bank. Turn it on so that it will respond to patch changes.
Navigate to the 'Assignments & Mappings' tab of the edit page. Find the device you want to use to send the MIDI CC messages. If it isn't in the list, click on 'New Assignment', which usually creates an Unmapped assignment in the 'All Devices' list. Click the area where it says No Assignment to bring up the Hardware Input popup menu. Choose your device, assign channel to 1-16, and change Type to absolute. From the number menu, choose the CC number you want to send the patch change. Set MIDI thru to Automatic. Name the input to something like CC to PG01.
Click on it to highlight the mapping info. In the far left side of the Control Inspector, you'll see a list of items such as Same as Input, Block, etc. You will also see the name of the instance containing Massive. Select it to bring up a list of control parameters, such as Volume, Mute, etc. From the list, choose MIDI Controller. The third item down in that menu is Program Change. Select it.
You'll see the Parameter values for Program Change. For saved value, select the Program Change number you want to send. Number scheme is 0-127. Now, here's the tricky part that nearly drove me mad before figuring it out. For NI instruments, one of the Range Max or Min numbers must be set to zero and the other to a non zero number. If you want to select PG 0, set saved value as 0, range max as 1 and range min at 0. For any other patch number, set saved value and range max to the same number and set range min to 0.
Also, make sure that the device thats sending your CC control message is configured as a toggle switch, not a momentary, or else it will send the range min program change number when you lift your foot or finger from the button. If you want to send multiple patch changes, add more mappings and assign different CC numbers to select the patch number you desire.
An additional benefit is that you can load up a single instance of Massive with as many presets as it can hold and use aliases of that instance for other songs. In this case you would create a new MainStage patch and populate it with an alias of your Massive instance. Set up a separate hardware input (I use logic remote) and rather than setting the number to a CC controller, set it to Any. By entering the same NI mapping parameters as above, it will send the correct PG info to Massive when you select the MainStage patch containing the alias. If you need to select multiple Massive patches from the new MainStage patch, simply assign the CC controllers to select new patch assignments. All that info is freely assignable and saved on a per MainStage patch basis, so your first instance could select the patch (say 0) and use three CC controllers to set patches 1-3. On the next MainStage patch containing the Massive alias, you could set the PG to select patch 4 and those same controllers can be set to select patches 5-7.

Guitar Rig and Logic Studio

The Guitar Rig that is in MainStage;
How do I insert that into a Logic Studio 8 track?
I'm assuming I'd start with an Audio track as opposed to MIDI.
Just can't seem to locate the Guitar Rig - only Guitar Amp Pro.
Thanks

I picked up the answer;
Create an Audio track in Logic with open library selected.
You will see the mainstage guitar rigs in the library.
Note that they do not appear when creating a software instrument.
For those of you interested - this works fine!

Can I use Guitar Rig 4 Sessions I/O with Adobe Audition CC? Thanks, Al :)

Hey,
I only need Guitar Rig to power my microphone because it requires phantom power. I've never actually been able to use the effects available on Guitar Rig because I always found it too confusing and never understood how to, so I'm not bothered about using the effects. I've changed the preference settings, but it just won't let me record in a multitrack session. It records on a single track (before you start a new multitrack session), however, it will not let me play it back. I've tried different preference settings, but nothing works! I tried to attach screenshots to show my preferences, but it wouldn't work :/
I would really appreciate it if you could help me!
Thank you,
Alexis

Hi
Yes... absolutely:
1st you need to download the Controller Editor from NI, then you need to configure the RK to work in "MIDI Mode". Assign the switches & pedal(s) to whatever CC's you wish.
Then, in Mainstage, create the screen controls and MIDI Learn them.
You may need the latest RK drivers too.

GarageBand stops recording immediately when using Guitar Rig Session

When I try to record a guitar into GarageBand using my Guitar Rig Session the recording starts, then immediately stops. This happens on a new track, or on an existing track. Everything was fine before I updated GarageBand to the latest version (6.0.4) via the App Store. I also updated to OSX 10.6.8 too. I've tried recording a track in Reaper and it works fine so I doubt it's a Guitar Rig/OSX 10.6.8 issue so I'm suspecting that it's the latest GarageBand version that's to blame. This discussion was the closest thing I could find to raise a support ticket about this. I'll have to switch to Reaper for now but if it's not fixed soon, I may not come back to GarageBand!

Native Instruments say they'll have a fix to make their software work in Lion in September. From what I've heard it only affects them running in 64 bit mode so try Guitar Rig in 32 bit mode if you can. I've switched to Reaper like I said and I'm finding the transition quite easy. Give their demo a try...

How to use external Microphone in Logic pro 8?

I am trying to use a condenser mic with interface (blue iclcle USB) and all I am getting is the internal mic. Does anyone know how to change this?
Thanks L

Hi Leza2unes,
Have you selected the device (blue ice USB) from within Logic itself?
Here are a few ideas to get you going. This is assuming that you have installed any drivers needed for the USB device you are using.
Logic Preferences> Audio> devices tab then, "core audio" tab make sure "Core Audio" is selected in the check box and that you see the "Blue Ice" (or something that relates to the name of your device)in the drop down menu next to the word "device".
Hope that helps,

How to use oxygen 8 with logic -- control knobs

Hey
I have an oxygen 8, and if I use it with Logic, the keyboard and pitch bend work, but not the knobs. It was the same with GarageBand, but I don't think with Garage Band it is even possible to get the knobs to work.
It's gotta be possible with Logic, though -- anyone know how?
Thanks
Bob

Hi...good news - it's easy!
if you wanna control the global pan. open the mixer, click on the pan of the output 1-2 channel strip then open the controller assignments (command - L). Learn mode should be selected now move the knob on your oxygen 8 that you wish to control global pan with. click on the "learn mode" button to deselect it and moving the newly assigned knob on your oxygen 8 will control global pan.
This works the same for all plug-ins and instruments too - so you can control the cuttoff and resonance on the exs24 for example or any control on any plug-in.
you need to make sure you activate the control on the plug-in first and then on the oxygen 8.
Also, you can find the controller assignments window here:
Logic Pro>Preferences>Control surfaces>Learn assignments for.... or Controller assignments...
Hope that helps

How to use AT END OF logic in ALV reports?

Hi Experts!!
I have a requirement which is given below and the same should be the output of an alv report. I have all the data in one itab which has ields as matnr, sl.no, name and place. And I have the itab values as
MATNR    SL.NO             NAME           PLACE
134     1     ABCD     INDIA
134     2     XYZ     US
134     3     QWERT     GERMANY
256     4     FDGHS     CNTRY1
256     5     GVHB     CNTRY2
256     6     GHI     CNTRY3
256     7     YGJN     CNTRY4
256     8     ESEGVU     CNTRY5
Now I need the alv output as the below:
Sl.No.     Name     Place
MATNR: 134
1     ABCD     INDIA
2     XYZ     US
3     QWERT     GERMANY
MATNR: 256
5     FDGHS     CNTRY1
6     GVHB     CNTRY2
7     GHI     CNTRY3
8     YGJN     CNTRY4
9     ESEGVU     CNTRY5
In normal classic report, I can achieve this by using AT END OF MATNR, and then printing. But how can i achieve the same in ALV report?
Kindly suggest me the normal ALV method, istead of OOPS concepts. I don't ant to consider OOPS, if this is possible by normal ALVs.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
Seenu

Hi,
Try this:
    data: h_alv_sorttab type slis_t_sortinfo_alv.

    h_alv_sorttab-tabname    = 'it_data'.
    h_alv_sorttab-up              = 'x'.
    h_alv_sorttab-subtot        = 'x'.
    append h_alv_sorttab.
    call function 'reuse_alv_grid_display'
      exporting
        i_background_id          = 'alv_background'
        i_callback_program      = g_repid
        is_layout                      = gs_layout
        it_fieldcat                     = gt_fieldcat[]
it_sort                          = h_alv_sorttab
        i_save                         = g_save
        is_variant                    = g_variant
        it_events                     = gt_events[]
        i_default                      = 'x'
      tables
        t_outtab           = it_data.
