Logic express locks up

When I try to access the audio settings logic express locks up giving me the spinning beach ball until I kill it.

Hi Grizz! Yes, you're right, Logic Express is not the easiest app in the world. However, don't give up now. Altough it may seem hard to understand at times, things will get clearer and clearer and I'm sure you'll be amazed at all the music that can be made with it, once you get used to work with it.
In the meantime, don't be afraid to ask for our help. This forum is here for that exact reason and we're always happy to help someone else. Yes, sometimes we may look a little bit impatient but I promise we only want to do our best and we always try to be respectful of everyone here.
P.S. Logic manuals are not the best written in the world. You may to take a look at Martin Sitter's book about Logic.

  • Logic express locks up When I try to get to audio preferences

    I've reloaded the program several times, it doesn't recognize any sound card other than the internal one and when I try to access preferences audio it freezes up. Anybody else have this problem?

  • Can't open a garage band song in logic express trial

    I've been thinking about getting logic express, but I wanted to try the trail version first. When I try to open any of my garageband songs in logic it says, "Damaged Song or not a logic express song! Damaged songs might create problems and crashes!" After that box it says, "Rad Error! This is not a Logic Express song!" I would appreciate any advice on how I might fix this problem.

    I'm not using a different user account than previously, and haven't moved anything. That said, I was able to solve the problem. Here's what I did:
    1. Right-click and select GET INFO
    2. In the INFO window, open the SHARING & PERMISSIONS panel at the bottom
    3. In the lower right corner, click the LOCK to change it to UNLOCKED
    4. In the pop-up PASSWORD window, enter your MAC password. The LOCK changes to UNLOCKED.
    5. Click the PLUS SIGN lower left, choose the appropriate Person or User/Group (me) and click SELECT
    6. The name gets added to the bottom of the GET INFO window, but with “Read only” permission
    7. Click the “Read Only” selection and change to “Read & Write”
    PARTIAL SUCCESS:  The PROHIBIT badge is gone from the file, and instead of showing ZERO bytes, it now shows XXMB — for example, 32MB.
    HOWEVER, when I tried to open the file, I got the message, “Your file has no content”.
    TOTAL SUCCESS:  I discovered that I had to go back a level, click on the FOLDER that contained my prohibited songs, and follow the same instructions 1-7 above. Now, at last, I can access my files in the new GarageBand!
    Thanks to Hang Time and Leonie for responding so quickly to my plea for help!

    = is assignment. == is equality comparison. You had that right in your previous post.
    Also, the || operator doesn't work the way you think it does. Make it

  • No sound from external keyboard in Logic Express 9.1.8

    I have connected my Yamaha MM6 keyboard to my Macbook Pro using a USB connection.  In Garageband, everything works fine, but in Logic Express 9.1.8, I don't hear anything,  In the Library panel, the MM6 shows up as Port 1 and 16 channel options appear.  None of them result in sound.  It indicates notes being played in the Input window, but not the Out.  Does anyone have any advice?

    OK, maybe I am not explaining this the right way. There is no sound coming out when I press keys on the capslock keyboard. I went into Window > Environment. Then I clicked on the drop down arrow in the top-left hand corner where the layers are usually located and went to "click & ports." I have everything connected properly, but I don't see "Caps Lock Keyboard" located in the "Physical Output" object box where it should be. Does anyone know how to get it back in there as I believe this is why I can't get any sound from the capslock keyboard.

  • Do I have to keep Logic Express installed after I upgrade to Logic Pro?

    Would like to delet Logic Express to make space but don't kow if that will make Logic Pro/Studio inoperable.
    Got Studio through upgrade form Express.

    Nope.
    You SHOULD still be able to run both!
    One trick you could try before installing Logic X, is to "Get Info" on the Logic Express Icon, and LOCK it.
    This way, in case the new Logic X DOES want to overwrite Logic Express, it won't be able to.

  • How to create an ABAP Query with OR logical expression in the select-where

    Hi,
    In trying to create an ABAP query with parameters. So it will select data where fields are equal to the parameters entered. The default logical expression is SELECT.. WHERE... AND.. However I want to have an OR logical expression instead of AND.. how can I attain this??
    Please help me on this.. Points will be rewarded.
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards,
    Question Man

    Hi Bhupal, Shanthi, and Saipriya,
    Thanks for your replies. But that didn't answer my question.
    Bhupal,
    You cannot just replace AND with OR in an ABAP QUERY. ABAP QUERY is a self generated SAP code. You'll just declare the tables, input parameters and output fields to be displayed and it will create a SAP standard code. If you'll try to change the code and replace the AND with OR in the SAP standard code, the system will require you to enter access key/object key for that particular query.
    Shanthi,
    Yes, that is exactly what need to have. I need to retireve DATA whenever one of the conditions was satisfied.
    Saipriya,
    Like what I have said, this is a standard SAP code so we can't do your suggestion.
    I have already tried to insert a code in the ABAP query (there's a part there wherein you can have extra code) but that didn't work. Can anybody help me on this.
    Thanks a lot.
    Points will be rewarded.

  • Dynamic Logical Expressions in ABAP: IF (lt_cond)...

    is it possible to have a dynamically constructured logical expression?
    I have a condition I need to use in an IF, but I want to avoid hard-coding, so I dynamicallybuild it.

    I've read all the documentation I can find on this, but i still cannot figure out why my macro is not processing.

  • Logical expression( = , =, , ) in read statement

    Hi All,
    Is it possible to use the logical expressions like (<= , >=, <, >) in the read statement?

    While you can only use "=" with the READ statement, you can use the READ statement to position the cursor at the first record you want and then use the LOOP with your operators to get only those records you want (assuming standard tables that have been correctly sorted). This can be very efficient.
    There have been many discussion about this in the forums. Please search and you'll see them.

  • Logical expressions in Link editor

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to define logical expressions (using AND, OR) in the Link editor of BLS or are we left with only using the Conditional Action block? Thanks...

    Yes it is.
    For AND : <<Condition1>> <b>&&</b> <<Condition2>>
    For OR : <<Condition1>> <b>||</b> <<Condition2>>
    You can use the <b>double ampersand (&&)</b> for <b>AND</b> and <b>double pipe (||)</b> for <b>OR</b>

  • Help! Logic Express 8 does not work on my Mac Pro with OS 10.5.1

    Hello, I hope somebody around here is able to help me.
    I have got a new Mac Pro with one Quad core processor since yesterday and it works fine except for Logic Express 8 (version 8.0.1). Whenever I start Logic the program crashes as soon as "Core Audio initialisieren" is shown in the display. I have tried to reinstall the program, deleted it completely and installed it again. It is always the same.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem? What can I do about it? I am a musician and I really need Logic Express to run.

    Confused. 10.6 is DVD based. Only Lion and above are downloads.
    And best install is not to upgrade. Do a clean install  - on another drive.
    Corrupt partition tables or bad sectors or no room to adjust the partitions or the directory is corrupt.
    ERASE the drive if Repair Disk didn't work.

  • Loops in Logic Express

    First of all I best say that I am new to Logic Express and Garageband, in fact the Mac thing so forgive the basic nature of this post. I have had some funny goings on with my mac since a failed software install so I decided to rebuild everything including the OS. Having re-installed Garageband and Logic Express I find most of the loops are missing. Some are there but all drum loops and others have gone. I tried to look up options to see if there is a tick box to install them but nothing. If I look in library, the loop directory is also missing. Can anyone suggest anything?
    Thanks
    Tetleyted

    Thanks for the reply. took a look but the directory structure as follows: HD/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/User Loops (Apple doesn't exist. I have a feeling that garageband and Logic Express hasn't completed the install. I have tried to re-run it but the same thing happened - no loops. Any suggestions welcomed.

  • Some organs don't play in new Logic Express files after JamPacks installed

    After loading only the instruments from the Symphony Orchestra and World Music GarageBand Jam Packs, I lost the ability to hear most of the organs available in Logic Express and all of the organs available in GarageBand after inserting them into Logic Express tracks. These same organ sounds still play in any Logic Express file set up prior to the installation of the JamPacks and they continue to play in GarageBand. Can an uninstall/reinstall of Logic Express 7.2.3 be a fix for this or is there an easier way to return the lost instruments to Logic Express?
    1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   Midisport 4x4, iControl

    The loss of instrument sounds in Logic Express had nothing to do with the installation of GarageBand JamPacks. The midi channel setting in the Inspector box of the Arrange window in Logic Express needed to be set to channel 1 to get midi data from other than channel 1 to play some of the inserted CoreAudio instruments. I don't understand what's going on but now I'm able to get the instruments that would not play.

  • How to connect my Alesis to Logic Express Pro, running on an Intel Mac Mini

    LE documentation won't give instructions for use of 3rd party equipment, except possibly generically.
