Is the Mackie Control broken in Logic Pro 9 ??

Haven't upgraded yet and read that Logic 9 has broken Mackie Control support.
True ? I only have the central unit. Works fine with LP7, but i want to move to an Intel Mac soon and will have to upgrade to Logic 9. Mackie Control support is very important to me.

My Logic control does not work properly in either 10.5 or 10.6 with Logic 9. The odd thing is that the same Logic Control is working better on my iMac running 10.6 than it does on my Mac Pro in either 10.5 or 10.6. Is there a way to keep my logic control working? Firmware 1.02 and its the original Logic control not the mackie control. Had to buy a motu micro lite so I could use the controller with SL.

  • Logic Control broken by Logic Pro 8

    My Logic Control, which has worked fine from Logic 5 to 7, now in Logic 8 has become almost inoperative.
    1. the "save" button no longer works. It should not need assigning, according to the Apple Logic support guy, who is getting the same problem with his Logic Control. No solution yet.
    2. the track display behaves erratically. When moving a fader, that track suddenly reads "volume" in the display, and won't go away. the track next door to the right of it immediately loses its name. Normally, this would never happen. the track is restored to semi-normalcy by pressing the "zoom" button - which, far as I know, is not the function of the zoom button, anyway.
    Tried deleting and reinstalling Logic Control in the Control Surfaces prefs. No change.
    Just thought I'd post this in case anyone out there is experiencing the same, and, hopefully has come up with a solution. help

    I'm not denying that. I am quite aware that Logic 8 has issues. Being factual is important though. Especially when bringing credibility into question. If Logic causes you so many problems perhaps you should consider migrating to a new DAW. Gotta be able to enjoy your work. Pro Tools 8 looks quite tempting to me actually.
    Cheers
    Factual is every bit as important as literate.
    I use Logic 7. In Logic 7 the control surface works perfectly, the audio output is not corrupted at the 2nd bit and all of the audio configuration functions are intact. None of this is true in Logic 8.
    And please note that by saying that logic 8 is causing "me" so many problems you imply that these are not real issues, but apple have admitted to these issues and done NOTHING for "6 months".. Am I supposed to use defective software or do my job?
    So please tell me why did you advise me to ditch Logic 8 (which I have stated that I DO NOT use) and moving to another DAW?

  • Control Surface for Logic Pro 7.2

    Hi Everybody !
    I'm a newbie in Mac and Logic Pro. I want to buy a control surface for Logic Pro.
    I found that Behringer B-CONTROL FADER BCF2000 Controller is compatible with Mac and Reason 3.0 but I'm not sure that it is compatible with Logic Pro. And it is within my budget !
    Can anybody give some comments on this model ? Any suggestion other than this model ??

    Just in case you buy one (and you should), I put a tutorial
    on how to set it up with Logic. The manual is not really
    clear on everything. Just go here
    http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?p=16210#16210
    It should get you up and running.
    P.S. the BCF also does let you control Plugin
    parameters along with 32 presets you can customize
    it to your workflow.

  • What's the best Mac to run Logic Pro 9 and above with no issues

    What's the best Mac to run Logic Pro 9 and above with no issues?

    Any Mac that can happily run OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Logic Pro 9.1.5.....
    Note: Newer Macs cannot run Snow Leopard because SL doesn't provide hardware support for the newer hardware found in these newer Macs....
    Next best combo for newer Macs is Mavericks 10.9.5 and Logic Pro 9.1.8... but it is nowhere near as efficient a combo as the previous one mentioned...

  • Is anyone using the novation impulse keyboard with Logic pro x?

    is anyone using the novation impulse keyboard with Logic pro x?
    I currently have an M-Audio Axium controller but I cannot map any of the controllers.
    I need to buy a 25 key controller anyway so I was hoping to get one that works well with Logic Pro X

    I have the Logitech S530 keyboard and mouse. I had no problems with it while I was using it with 2 PowerMac G5 and one Dell XPS, but when I got the MacPro I found that it doesn't work with MacPro and a KVM switch. Logitech says their keyboard and mice are NOT made to work with KVM switches, but I didn't find that until I started using it with the Mac Pro.
    The other small con is that the mouse is made for right handed people. On the other hand, I love the looks and feel of the keyboard and all the keys. It also will do the boot up holding down the Option key for choosing your startup drive and holding down the Shift key for Safe Mode, which the Kensington keyboard will not do.

  • Control surface for Logic Pro

    Hi There
    Any ideas- what is the best control surface to use with Logic Pro?I would like a controller with at least 16 or 24 individaul faders.
    Does the Mackie X Bus emulate a controller for Logic Pro?
    thank you
    G4 1.25 gig   Mac OS X (10.3.8)   G4,

    I'm using a Mackie Control Universal and absolutely love it. The integration with Logic is top-notch. It would be nice to add an Extender and have 16 faders, but I'm finding that for what I do 8 faders at a time is plenty.
    The X Bus has a Mackie Control layer that gives you the same amount of control. I believe the MCU's buttons are all displayed up on the X Bus screens. I'm sure you can find out more in the owners manual: http://www.mackie.com/products/digitalxbus/pdfs/X200OM_Ver1_04.pdf
    Good luck!

  • Using Yamaha AW2400 as control surface for Logic Pro 9

    I am a freelance pro sound engineer currently working as tech support for a local school. They have a Yamaha AW2400 in their studio, something which I have never come across before despite using numerous Yammy desks. They also have a Mac running Lion and Logic Pro 9.
    What I want to do is use the desk as a control surface for Logic and record direct to the Mac if possible. I have installed the Yamaha USB-MIDI drivers on the Mac and had the desk running as a device for file transfer (via the USB connection) but everything else is beyond my knowledge of the desk and Logic.
    I am a Pro Tools guy so Logic is a bit new to me but I know how to setup a new control surface. and the basic operations.
    What I need help with is...
    - what control surface to use as there is no preset on the desk for a AW2400
    - what port settings to use on Logic
    - what TX and RX settings to use on the AW2400
    - what Remote Out settings to use on the AW2400
    - any other info I may need
    Thanks in advance, hope some can help.

    See page 204 of the AW2400 User Guide...
    http://www2.yamaha.co.jp/manual/pdf/pa/english/recorders/aw2400_en_om_b0.pdf
    Note: the User Guide says that only LP7 is supported but you never know.. it may work with LP9... Test and see..

  • Can I use a VS-700C control surface with Logic Pro?

    Hi,
    Does anybody know if I can use a Roland VS-700C control surface and/or VS-700R audio interface with Logic Pro?
    Cheers,
    Craig

    If it supports the Makie protocol, it might work... but I wouldn't purchase one on that basis without trying it first.

  • How can I use the sounds of the Yamaha Motif XF6 in Logic Pro 9?

    I have Logic Pro 9 on my Mac Book. I also have a Yamaha Motif XF 6 synthesizer. Instead of using Logic's software instruments I would like to record the sounds of the Motif directly into Logic.
    I have been told that an audio interface is necessary for this. What kind of audio interface would be good for this? Any in particular?
    And, once I have obtained the interface, what steps do I need to take to hook up the Motif into Logic to utilize the Motif's sound bank?
    Detailed steps would help, as this is new stuff for me.
    Thanks!

    Since this is a user forum only, and your questions will take a lot of time to answer you might want to check both the Logic manual and the XF6 manual. The XF6 has possibilities such that you may not need and Audio interface if the Firewire option is present.
    Also you have a built in USB MIDI interface as well, you will need to download the Yamaha MIDI driver.
    Read Exploring Logic Pro, especially chapter five, you can record your performance via MIDI, edit it and then commit to audio.
    Dig in.

  • What is the difference when bouncing a Logic Pro X project to Stereo Mode and Normal Mode?

    I was was working on a Logic Pro X Project which I am using as a Sequence for a band.  When I completed my project, I mixed for left side to hear the Click track  and I panned everything else to the right side.  After I completed my project, I bounced to Mp3 in Normal Stereo Mode and after opening in iTunes I discovered that I am hearing the click on the right track. I again bounced and tried the Joint Stereo Mode thinking that would fix it but I still get the click track on both left and right.  What is the difference between bouncing to Normal and Joint Stereo.
    My goal is to produce a 2 track Mp3 Sequence so that all my click track is only heard on the left side and the produced audio is heard only on the right side.
    Any suggestions?

    FIrst, try to bounce to uncompressed aiff or wave and see if you get perfectL-R separation.
    The compression algorithm does its voodoo and maybe some of the left right separation gets messed up with it.
    About Joint Stereo.
    The idea behind is to save data. The algorithm analyzes the stereo signal, when it sees signals/frequencies that are in the left and right channel, then it says, "having the same signal on the left and right channel is the same as storing only one channel (mono ), and when played back send that one channel to the left and right speaker. it saves you half the storage/transmission". However, you have to trust the voodoo again to think that if what comes out is the same as what went in.
    If size and transmission speed isn't an issues, don't use Joint Stereo.
    Hope that helps
