Logic 8 and 9 sync'ing on two separate computers

hi there and thanks for reading this post.
here's my setup...
1 ppc mac g5 running logic pro 8 - with various vst virtual instruments that only work on the ppc platform
1 intel mac pro 8 core running logic 9 - with au virtual instrumets only
here's my question...
can i run/network the two macs so that the intel is the master, the ppc vst instruments chase the intel's au vi's and - if that wasn't enough - all audio from the ppc is routed - like a reason rewire setup - to the intel master's environment/mixer/rme audio card.
in other words - i am not interested in node'ing the computer, nor am i interested in having to take audio out of both the ppc and intel separately to another mixer.
i would ultimately like all audio passing through the intel.
anyone out there with some ideas....
thank you

sending audio through the network is attractive, although your comment is a bit scary.
Yeah, the feature is attractive, but it practice it's never been particularly easy to do this reliably.
I've tried all kinds of solutions, and while I've been able to get them to work, it's never been particularly solid, for all kinds of reasons, especially variable latency.
is there more information about accomplishing this - again - a la a rewire setup...
i'd only be interested in sending a stereo pair from the ppc to a channel or aux in on the intel side...
A simple stereo pair is easy enough - you can use OSX's network audio plugins to send and receive audio across the network. However, you will have the need to accurate timing of the audio, because it needs to "line up" with the host DAW. Give it a try, because it's free and easy, and see what success you have with it.
You can also try FX Teleport and do it that way, which works in a similar manner but should have latency a bit better.
If you have a PPC machine with an inbuilt digital output, then it would be easier to connect that to your current audio interface and transfer your stereo feed digitally...

  • After downloading 24.5.0 I get frequent "stalling" and hanging of Thunderbird, on two separate computers with McAfee

    While reading mail that has already downloaded, Thunderbird seems to stall when selecting a new message, and I get a message from Windows at the top of the screen telling me that Thunderbird is not responding. If I wait a couple minutes this clears up and I can click on the next message. I can work normally for a while, then it will hang a few times, then it clears up for a while. Windows 7, 64-bit. Happens on two different computers with different apps running, different anti-virus packages, probably not all the settings are identical.

    First, thanks for offering to help.
    Anti-Virus Related Issues
    1. McAfee AntiVirus Plus doesn't create an extension called McAfee Anti-Spam Thunderbird Extension in Tools | Addons | Extensions as noted in the web article. Nothing there. It does create two other plugins in Tools | Addons | Plugins. One is called McAfee Security Center and the other is called McAfee Virtual Technician. Disabling either had no impact upon mail performance. Yes, I closed the application and restarted it after turning the plugins off to be sure that they weren't still running.
    2. Disabling attachment scanning didn't seem to have any impact, but I may have to wait until I get some significant attachments to tell for sure on that.
    Routine Sysadmin Chores:
    1. Yes, using POP. One computer does not remove mail from the server, the other does, daily. There is no significant build up of old mail on the server. Also, nothing changed in this regard from before installing 24.5.0.
    2. I do archive mail, but mostly I clean out the folders. There is not a big accumulation of email in folders, particularly on the machine running McAfee. Regardless, this hasn't changed since I installed 24.5.0.
    3. I empty junk and spam folders several times a day on whichever computer is being used, and compact regularly. There is no build up in those folders.
    On the bright side, both systems seem to be doing better with mail this morning, before doing anything at all to try and fix the problem. I am going to let this sit for a few days and see how it performs.

  • HT5177 How can two people edit the same FCPX file? One company, so both people/computers share the same license. Example: I work on revision A and my boss takes it and makes revision B and gives it back to me using two separate computers.

    Have the project, events and media on one drive which is common to both macs.
    You can download FCP X to both macs using the same Apple ID that it was purchased with.

  • Sync photos from two separate iCloud accounts

    How do I sync photos from two separate iCloud accounts onto my PC?

    Howdy Springcheer,
    While this is not syncing per se, I'm wondering if iCloud Photo Sharing will do what you need to get photos from two separate iCloud accounts to your PC.

    Please read the article. It may work for you.

  • Two separate apple ids two separate computers but the accounts are linked.  how do we fix it?

    my husband and i use ipads, ipods and iphones.  we both have our own apple id...our own icloud accounts and sync with two separate computers.  but our accounts keep linking...i have my contacts as well as his...and vice versa.  how do we fix this?  please help.

    did you used to have the same icloud? if you did you each have to redo your contacts. have you made sure your devices don't have anything signed in with his icloud and vice versa?

  • I have two separate iTunes libraries on two separate Computers. I need to consolidate them so I can play them on a brand new computer. How do I do this so I can play them off an External Hard Drive on my brand new computer?

    I have two separate iTunes libraries on two separate Computers. I need to consolidate them so I can play them on my brand new computer. How do I do this so I can play them off an External Hard Drive on my brand new computer?

    Why, if it told you you have insufficient space on your computer, would it suggest making more space available on your phone?
    At a guess, you have insufficient space on your phone. Installing software will typically require more space than the final size of the software, perhaps even twice or three times as much, for the installation process. You can easily dump some videos or music temporarily, and then synch them back in afterwards.

  • Is it possible to use Time Machine with an external hard drive for two separate computers?

    I'm looking to purchase an external hard drive to use as with time machine as a backup for two separate computers.  I'm not sure if I should buy 2 EHDs and dedicate one to each computer, or if Time Machine has the capacity to back up both computers separately.  Anyone have any experience with this?
    Thanks!

    You can make two partitions on a single drive and dedicate one to each computer.

    Can I use two separate computers with the same adobe ID.  I want to update my kobo from either unit

    I doubt it is possible to run two instances of iTunes on the computer at the same time.  To do so would require two users to be signed in and running iTunes under each user.
    The better solution would be to either clean up and merge the two libraries or have iTunes running on a second computer.

  • My Bad - Logic and FX Sync'ing

    Wouldn't you know it. I picked the Tremolo as an example and it has tempo sync'ing. What about chorus, flanger, phaser, Modulation Delay etc. Just seems to be missing either the Beat Sync button or the dual purpose time control like the Tremolo. An oversight??

    Your cousin needs to buy his/her own copy.. and as LP9 is no longer sold... they will need to buy/use Logic Pro X instead.

  • Sync Mail for two apple computers?

    Hello
    I have two apple computers, one iMac and one MacBook. I use Mail on both to access the same account. But I never get my emails to both accounts. For example, while im on my MacBook, i get emails, but as soon as it is in sleep mode, new emails go to the iMac, and never show up in the inbox of the MacBook. Is there a way to sync them?

    If you are using POP email accounts, just change the settings in mail on both computers to leave the mail on the server for 2-4 weeks (whatever the maximum interval is that you would not be using one of your computers). Then, each Mac will be able to download and store all of your messages.

  • I want to use two separate Lion Time Machine backups and use them to create two separate profiles on one new computer

    This is something I need to do temporarily but I must do it. 
    I have an iMac 27 (end of year 2009) I5.  It has 1 TB internal and I want to replace it with a 2 TB internal.
    I have time machine backups on an external hard drive that has been connected via Firewire. 
    I have another iMac (my son's)Imac 24 Intel Core 2 Duo that has it's own separate Time machine backup to it's own separate firewire connected external drive.  Both machines are completely up to date with the latest version of Lion and all other necessary software updates.
    When the internal hardrive is replaced - I want to use my latest time machine backup to create one profile on the imac and then use my son's latest time machine back up for a second profile.  The end goal being to have everything from my current set up ie: apps, documents, itunes, etc existing in one profile and everything in my son's current set up existing in the other profile.   We can both be administrators for the time being as well.  I should note even though we both have some of the same apps, we both also have other apps that the other does not.
    My profile will be using about 900 gigs of total space.
    My son's profile will be using about 250 gigs of total space.
    This is temporary until the new iMac is released.  Then I will want to transfer my profile to that leaving my son's intact on the iMac 27 I5.
    I realize that during the temporary period that Time Machine will be making backups of this entire two profile setup, which I am now understanding as I write this will create a new issue for me when I want to transfer only my profile to the new computer as well.  But one bridge to cross at a time, I guess.
    I need to do this because we must bring his current computer to my father - as his iMac G5 is inoperable.  We have been doing this round robin hand me down in our family since IMac DV special edition :-)
    Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated.  And any other suggestions as well.
    Thanks very much.

    Hey Shootist000,  Thanks for the replies.  First off, I am actually okay if we both have each other applications so I am not concerned about that. It is still unclear from what you have said as to whether I can in fact, use these two separte time machine backup to create two separate profiles on the new hard drive.  If that in fact can be done, then - will it create two copies of the apps we both have in the ROOT of the drive as well as placing all the ones we each have separately?
    And reading your second reply, makes me think that maybe the partition is the way to go to begin with and then down the road - after I am in the new iMac, I could reformat the iMac 27 with only one partion and restore my son's latest back prior to the reformat thus giving him full access to the 2 TB of the drive.
    If this is still making sense, does this mean :
    replace the 1TB with a 2TB - but have it partitione - 1.5 TB & 500 GB.
    Install(Restore using Time Machine) my latest back up prior to the  1.5 partition
    Install (Restore using Time Machine) my son's latest back up prior to the 500 gig partition
    Lastly, in order for us both to be using the partioned computer - I am assuming Switch user can no longer be used - so would we need to restart and select our respective partions in order to use the computer?   And if so, how would we each be able to be using time machine to back up - two separte external hard drives - with each one dedicated to only one partition? Or ? 
    Thanks so much.
    Ironically, I am only trying to do this so that I don't need to manually install all his apps, setting, games, blah blah for this temporary period.  :-)

  • We've just downloaded Maverick and the new final cut 10.1.  On two separate computers it has crashed and we have lost our entire project that we were editing.  Not sure if it is a final cut problem or maverick.  Any suggestions on how to get the timeline

    We just installed maverick and the new final cut.  On 2 separate computers we have had it crash while using final cut and have lost the project.  Now we are reading that our time machine is not working with maverick.  Any suggestions on how to get timeline back from the new final cut?  Thought it was suppose to save automatically.
