Logic Plug-ins Video Tutorial

Does Apple sell a video tutorial on how to use Logic 7's soft-snyth and effects plug-ins?
I have the books / manuals, but I learn much better with video.
Much like the video Tutorial I purchased with the Absynth 3.
I also would like to get a video on the EX24. Reading the manual gets tricky, especially when you don’t know the terminology.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Can Logic plug ins remove background noise from interview?

Can Logic plug ins remove background noise from interview?
A friend with an important interview recorded in noisy conditions has asked me to help remove background noise - never done this technically.
Is there a Logic or third party plug in that would could remove background noise from a spoken word interview? Have tried EQ which improves the sound slightly but not a solution.
Anyone with specialised knowledge of this sound editing operation?
cheers

There are several 3rd party denoisers, they mostly work by first 'learning' the noise footprint of the audio, for which it is best to record a few seconds of silence (with an open mic).
These will all do a decent to excellent (it all depends on the source material) job:

Addit:
Is it that background noise (traffic, talking etc) drowns out the words? Then you'd probably have more luck with (radical) eq-ing and/or notch filtering to find the most dominant frequency range of the speaker in relation to the background noise.
As an interviewer myself I will point out that even with a small disctaphone you need to have some awareness of how the microphone picks up things. As soon as you nead to lean towards whoever you're talking to, just to make sure you're audible, the dictaphone on the table is probably recording mainly ambient noise, the interview being part of that. This is especially a problem when interviewing in a busy public space.

Mountain Lion problems with Logic Plug-Ins

I have just installed the new Mountain Lion, and now my Logic Pro 9 cannot create any more audio or software instrument tracks. I think it has messed up the plug-ins. What should I do to restore my original Logic Pro 9?

Have you downloaded the latest update?:

3rd party AU plug ins vs Logic Plug ins

has any one got any suggestions of any 3rd party plug ins or instruments that compare or better the Logic ones, i am very happy indeed with what i have at the moment but feel some of the sounds i am getting from the synths are lacking a bit of warmth, maybe i need to dig a little deeper or maybe there are better things out there, obviously the ES2 is a killer piece of software but some of the pads that i am creating are not up to scratch. Is this just me? am i not adding enough plug ins to the synth or is it just not as deep as people say it is? i hear waves are a good too, discuss..............Thanks

3rd party stuff eh?
Spectrsonics makes stellar AU plug ins. Can't wait for the aforementioned atmosphere to come out as UB this fall.
Also mentioned before, Reason is just a fun program that is very powerful and inspiring.
Odd that many people mentioned the NI products. I would, but after getting FM8, I just can't say I am an NI fan.
FM8 sound great! The software is powerfull, the UI is easy to use, the flexibility is enormous, but I can't recall all the setting of patches with Channel strip settings. I was quite disappointed as I wanted to Use FM8 to give me that DX-7 Rhodes sound to use for live gigs, but recalling a performance channel strip didn't load the envelopes, and the sound just didn't work. I emailed NI and asked what the deal was, and they told me it was a bug, sorry. The only workaround they could give me was to load the patch from FM8 it's self.
I still use FM8 for recordings, but never for live use. I also decided not to try any new NI products fearing more incompatibilities with how I work.
NI's stuff does sound great, but with tweaking I can get most of my other synths to match it.

Where to put Logic Plug-ins?

When using a product like Miroslav Philharmonik, I can get the program to run, but I can not figure out how to make it work with logic. The plug-ins do not show up! Someone please help me know what folders to put what in. Thanks

luke79 wrote:Why is it, that when I run philharmonik in logic, I have to load the intruments into strange channels, I can't just use channel one, I have to switch it around. Does that make sense?
No, not really... what channel(s) do you mean? I have never seen "strange" channels in Logic (or Philharmonik). A bit more detail, or even screenshots, might help.

Help with Logic + Plug-ins-- Spinning Wheel of Death

I'm using Logic 9.1.8 with NI's Machine Mikro and a Focusrite 2i2. All of the most recent drivers are installed and I had been using them both in Logic successfully for days until today. Now every time I open Logic, the spinning wheel of death appears and will not go away, leading me to force quit. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've tried erasing the Loop stuff in the Library folder as it has said on other boards. Please .

Thanks for your help. For whoever stumbles upon these postings and happens to have the exact problem is me. I drug the Maschine.component out of the plug-ins folder and on to the desktop, trashed the original, and started Logic Pro. I then went to preferences and made sure that Logic was opening an empty project at the time of launch. Before, when the spinning wheel of death was coming up, it was automatically going to my last project and, I believe, getting tripped up on mounting Maschine. Now everything works fine.

MPC sequencing Using Logic Plug ins

Whats the best way to set up logic so I can sequence my music using the MPC 4000 sequencer therefore utilizing all Logic Virtual Instruments on midi channels in the MPC? Then when i'm done in the MPC I'll imort all the MIDI data to logic hence retaining the unique Roger Linn MPC swing feel. Please let me us know. THank YOU.

Hi,
There's a couple of things to think about when considering sync.
It's always best to try and run Logic (your main DAW) as the master sync. It's really all about digital playback and retaining a stable word clock. If the word clock varies then the playback speed and thus pitch of your audio will vary too. Depending on what your sync settings are, your audio can also drift out of time with your midi.
Example 1 :- Internal sync
All your audio is within Logic, your playing back Software synths, Midi to external synths.
Logic should be internally synced.(the blue sync button on the transport bar should be off).
Logic will then clock its audio either to the macs internal clock or to your interfaces internal/external clock.(which will be very stable if you've set it up right)
Tempo reference, time signature changes will all be controlled by logics settings.
Nothing should ever go out of sync (if we ignore delay compensation and running your processor too hard)
Example 2 :- External sync
Everytime we sync logic to an external source we are relying on two things.
The stability of that external source and the differences between it and any future source we choose to use.
A good example is when we externally sync to an analogue multitrack that has an unstable transport. We need a device that can reference smpte and pass on to our DAW a derived MidiTimecode (smpte in Midi language) and Word Clock reference. Then logic can chase and sync both midi & audio playback. It is the options within the 'sync' settings of logic that determine quite how midi & audio are handled.(chapter 19 pro manual). Choosing the wrong setting here can lead to audio drifting with midi.
Now if our tape machine is wowing or fluttering , logic will varispeed its playback in sympathy. If we then playback logic internally, the playback speed will alter.Tempo & pitch will change. Thus to retain our original recordings pitch and speed, we must continually sync logic to our Multitrack. Yet will it recreate the same wow on the next pass.
If however we externally sync the multitrack to Logic, we will record with stable clock.
This is an extreme example yet it's worth knowing the pitfalls of not considering audio & midi playback to be two indepedent processes that require to work in tandam.
The great thing about the MPC is it ain't gonna wow or flutter if you use it as a Master. You'll need to send Midi Time Code (or Midi Clock) to Logic and set up logics sync page . MTC will allow you to use Logic's tempo map, Midi Clock will communicate the MPC's tempo map.(96 pulses per quarter note?)
Midi playback will sync fine. Very long audio files previously recorded can drift if you use 'MTC trigger' even with the slight difference between one sequencers clock and another. The solution is to chop em up. But generally it should be stable.
Still I'd send MTC from Logic and sync the MPC externally to that. Your MPC's groove should still playback & audio playback from within Logic will always be stable. In fact why not record your groove templates into logic and then save them.Then in the future you can just use your MPC as an external synth .
Cheers
Eddy

So where can I get authorised Logic plug ins?

What the above says really..

Blimey, there are tons. Google is your friend. Here's a start, but only a start mind you. This list could easily be 10 times longer.

Missing plug-ins in Logic Pro X after updating OS X Yosemite to 10.10.2

I just updated Yosemite from 10.10.1 to 10.10.2 on my MacBook Pro and opened Logic X after the reboot to find that all of my plug-ins are missing. This includes not only the third party plug-ins that I have installed on my machine but specifically with this session file, the Apple/Logic plug-ins are missing as they are the only ones I was using.
I've deleted the cache file in the library/audiounits folder on my machine thinking there was some glitch there but that did not help.
Does Logic X somehow open in 64bit in Yosemite and the Apple plug-ins are opening at 32bit thus rendering them incompatible? I've read that that Logic X does not support 32bit plug-ins but if that were true why are the Apple plug-ins missing, they are 64bit correct?
btw, where has the Audio Units Manger been moved to in Logic X?

I just uninstalled/reinstalled Logic X. Apple plug-ins are still missing.
Has anyone heard of anything like this? I can't find any mention of this specific issue online here or elsewhere...

What can I do to stop Logic from crashing with my plug-ins??

I'm running...
Logic Pro v9.0.0
2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac
2GB RAM
Native Instruments KOMPLETE 5 plugins (mainly Battery3 and Electrik Piano)
I have no problem with latency in audio recording and never even get crashes when using Logic plug-ins or running a lot of tracks at once.
But when I use the Native Instruments plug-ins and start turning some knobs on their interface, Logic quits without warning.
This isn''t all the time. But it does happen frequently, especially when running multiple plug-in instruments.
I can still get work done if I hit save all the time but it is getting more frustrating as my song grows larger.
Is there any sort of setting in Preferences that would help me with this?
I just ordered another GB of RAM. Do you think that will help at all?
What should I do? The KOMPLETE 5 instruments are too good to go without.
Thanks.

I ran Activity Monitor while opening a few projects in Logic. And it seems that I only have about 560MB of RAM left to play with once the song loads. Before I open Logic I have about 1.5GB of RAM that is free. So yeah, I think this is the problem.
When I get my RAM in the mail, I'll try going plug-in crazy and see what happens. And then I'll post back here with the results for anyone that may be reading this in the future.
But thanks for letting me know about Activity Monitor. I learn something new about my mac everyday. God bless.

STP v2.01 quits at start up with some 3rd plug-ins that are ok with Logic.

Installed Logic Studio exactly two weeks ago. The main focus has been on Logic Pro.
Haven't used them yet, but MainStage, and WaveBurner open without any problems.
Today is the first time I tried to open SoundTrack Pro. It quit while scanning audio units plug-ins.
Out of desparation, I created an "unused components" file and dragged all AU plugs to this folder.
STP opened ok with just the Logic plug-ins.
So I started the process of systematically adding a few AU plugs back into the components folder. All PSP and RND plugs seemed ok with STP. Beyond that, I realized that some, but not all of the various others (UAD, TC PowerCore, etc) would work. I could spend all night driving myself crazy making a list of what does and does not work with STP.
All of my audio plugins work with Logic Pro 8, DP 5.1.2, and DSP-Quattro!
Please help.
I was hoping to use STP as my audio file mastering program.

Long story short.... the problem was TC Powercore plug-ins. In particular, the Assimilator.
I was able to gradually add back all AU plug-ins to the Components folder without any problems opening STP.
I hope this helps others.

External plug-ins adding

I want to use Reactor 5 with Logic 8 as a plug-in. How do I get all my reactor plugin options, in the same way as if I were to use EX2 or any other logic plug-ins.
Any help?

Hi there,
First you might want to download the latest version of Reaktor (I think version 5.1.4 it's called) which fixes some graphic bugs and other minor issues. Then you should save your Presets in your User Library so whenever you open an instance of Kontakt all the available sounds will list in your Library. Besides that there is nothing you have to do, unless I missed your question. Reaktor works great in my system and can be used within L8 to it's fullest potential.

Headroom of plug-ins

Hi everybody,
I know this has been discussed a lot but I still have some questions:
How can I know how much headroom a specific plug-in offers before you get noticeable distortion. Is there a general rule?
I know logic has lots of headroom (internally) and you can avoid distortion if you turn the master fader down (am I right?).
But how about distortion of logic plug-ins and third party plug-ins???
Thanks Eddie

How can I know how much headroom a specific plug-in offers before you get noticeable distortion.
Is there a general rule?
Most plugins use a floating point implementation. you can go about 0dBFS.
Some plugins use a fixed point implementation. You should not go above 0dBFS.
I know logic has lots of headroom (internally)
Yes.
and you can avoid distortion if you turn the master fader down (am I right?).
You can turn the master fader down to avoid clipping your output or clipping a bounce, because in both of these cases you are going from a floating point implementation (Logic's mixer) back to a fixed point implementation (your audio interface, or an audio file) and therefore should not go above 0dBFS.
But how about distortion of logic plug-ins and third party plug-ins???
Logic plugins are all floating point.
Most third-party plugins are floating point. Some are fixed point, for instance some of the older Waves plugins. If you are not sure, check the manuals. If they don't mention this in the manuals, then just be careful, do some experiments, or ask the developers. It should be hard to work out - just drive the plugin well over 0dBFS and see whether you get nasty clipping.

Fab Four Plug Ins into Logic

I just purchased the Fab Four software suite today and when I open Logic Pro 8 I cannot access any of the sounds. How come? What do I need to do to access the plug ins when I connect my guitar, etc to my audio interface?

As far as I understand, Fab Four is not an effect plug-in (apart from the ADT emulation): it's a virtual instrument.
Hence, no way of using it with your guitar, you'll have to open a software instrument track and play the sounds with a MIDI keyboard. Check out the video tutorials here: http://www.eastwestsamples.com/details.php?cd_index=1027
