Logic Pro 8 and Delta 1010 random audio stuttering

Since installing Logic Pro 8, I have two problems which I suspect may be related:
1. Launching Logic will sometimes freeze my Mac and bring up that familiar screen that says I must immediately restart. This seems random, happening maybe one time out of 7 or 8.

2. The other problem is that launching Logic 8 sometimes results in apparent misbehavior by my PCI audio card, a Delta 1010. In such cases, I will immediately hear something that sounds like very loud white noise coming out of the audio interface and into my mixer, but with a rapid stutter (confirmed by the VU meters on the Delta control panel, which vibrate like they're having a seizure). Nothing seems to stop the noise, except quitting Logic and restarting the Mac. This misbehavior seems quite random and there's nothing I've been able to do to track it down or make it repeatable -- all I can do is quit Logic, restart, and hope that this time it works. Fortunately, if I can finally get Logic 8 launched without the noise factor, it runs fine and virtually never crashes.
Anyone have any similar problem or ideas about the cause? I'm thinking about replacing the Delta 1010 with a new Firewire audio interface, in anticipation of buying a new Mac later this year. But I don't want to do it now if it's not the 1010's fault.
(Details: I am using the latest driver for the Delta 1010, downloaded from M-Audio's web site; the latest version of Logic 8 (8.0.1); and Mac OSX 10.4.11. I've got this all running on an older Mac, a G4 Dual 1.25 with 2 GIGS Ram. I've got the Delta 1010 selected as the default input and output in Audio MIDI setup, using the Mac built-in output only for the System Output. None of these issues were happening with Logic 7, and I haven't changed anything since then, except for installing Logic 8 and gradual Tiger upgrades. I also seem to have no problems using the Delta 1010 with Final Cut Pro. I suppose the possibilities are: incompatibility with Logic 8 and some other software, the Delta 1010 card is going bad, an issue with other connected peripherals (USB hub, Firewire Hub, Edirol UM-550), bad ram... or something else?)

Hi,
There are two things to bear in mind here.
1) In my experience, it takes a little longer for the driver to kick in after boot up, so wait a minute before launching Logic.
2) I recently reinstalled the 10.4.10 driver on my friend's Mac (same config as yours) and it now works as it should.
Best Wishes

  • Logic Pro 8 and nio 2/4 Audio Interface microphone input

    I am new to using macs and have purchased a mac mini. I have fully installed Logic Pro and have nio 2/4 as my input for music via a microphone. Logic finds nio compatable but I cannot however get Logic to recognise the microphone as an input for recording. Logic does not also generate the microphones sounds ie when spoken into in real time. I know the solution is probably very simple but I haven't got a clue where to start in changing the settings ie on the mac and on logic. any help would be much appreciated

    Open Logic, go to Preferences>Audio>Devices>Core Audio and select the nio as the Core Audio device.
    I assume you have the mic plugged in to the nio?
    Does it indicate that it gets a signal from the microphone?
    The Mac will not 'recognise' the microphone, as it will not recognise anything plugged into the analog inputs of the nio - it will only recognise the nio itself. You have to assign in- and outputs to you tracks in Logic. So if the mic is plugged into input 2, you'll have to select that input on the track you want to record it on.

    In logic Pro, when I open up an audio track or software track and load an audio file/loop or software file loop, there is no sound. I will finally get a sound out of one of the audio or software tracks after opening at least 5 of them alternately. Is anyone familiar with this kind of bug? It's really frustrating as this takes much time to complete work.

    I'm not sure I follow your words Fuzzynormal. You've helped by offering the insight that my issue in Logic Pro 9 is not a bug but a feature. But fell short of enlightenment by being a judge of character and of how one should interact in this forum. You insinuate that I haven't tried to solve the issue on my own when in fact I have. These forums are always my last resort. You further suggest that I am complaining. This is not a complaint. It is a genuine issue that I cannot figure out. Then you think that Brazeca is holding my hand and being a nice guy. Brazeca is helping people like me who might not be as adept at using Logic Pro as probably you are.This community forum was established to raise questions, answers and dicussion to help Apple's customers better undertand their operating systems and related issues. You are doing a disservice by not contributing positively and by trying to make this forum what you want it to be. You may have all the time in the world to try figuring out stuff but we are not all like you. We all have different schedules and different levels of understanding. And that is what this forum is for - to help people move forward. If you can't contribute positively then keep silent. And by the way, you say to "read the words that are printed down to explain to you how that works" what words are you talking about? Why don't you be of some help instead of trying to own this forum. 

  • I have a carillon 25 keyboard (bad choice, I know) and I can't get it to communicate with my mac at all! I'm running logic pro 9 and reason 5. I get signal in from my M Audio trigger finger so I know it isnt an entirely mac based problem. Thanks!!!

    Well, how have to determined no signal is being recieved to your mac?
    Have you got something that shows the actual signal? Or have you just been trying to control a VST? What software are you using by the way?
    I personnally went with a AKAI MPK25, because it's made already mapped for logic & ableton etc, so it just makes things incredibly easy.
    I would suggest you return it if you can as a dead unit & perhaps look at something else a bit easier?
    Otherwise, if you just want to get this working we can have a look a bit deeper.
    And driver? OS X driver?

  • After downloading osx 10.9.2 when i open my logic pro 9 and begin to audition loops that came with lp9 i get a message that says "audio device has been removed  and then a second message the " select driver not found(-10202). my interface is a apogee duet

Can anyone provide a solution to this problem. Thanks

    YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!
    I got it!!! Yes!!!
    Guys, I've solved my problem about that error -10202 (Selected driver not found).
    I have installed in my Mac Pro (OS X 10.5.8) a document with an extension ".rsrc" to correct the position of the accents in my keyboard, like acute accent, tilde and circumflex.
    That file is called "U.S. - International.rsrc" and it's stored in the following path:
    "Macintosh HD/Library/Keyboard Layouts"
    So, when it's properly installed, I can choose 2 country flags on the right side of the menu bar (U.S. - International and Brazilian).
    That's the clue!
    When I pick up "U.S. - International", my keyboard works fine with the accents, >>>BUT<<< Logic Pro 9 doesn't recognize my audio driver; and when I pick up "Brazilian", my keyboard doesn't work with the accents exactly as it shows me on each key, BUT Logic Pro 9 DOES recognize my audio driver.
    So, when I want to write anything out, I will pick up the "US - International" and when I want to work on the Logic Pro 9, I will pick up "Brazilian".
    I hope I can help all of you.
    Regards,
    Renato Veiga.

  • M-Audio Fast Track USB interface not compatible with Logic Pro X and Yosemite

    Hello All!
    I've been trying to simply record some guitar and vocal tracks onto the latest version of Logic Pro X. It worked before I downloaded the update of Yosemite, however now, I can't find a solution to my problem. I've tried everything! Installed new drivers onto the M-Audio and even tried to search for a later update of Yosemite. I have read a few things online about how Yosemite doesn't accept 3rd party drivers. So any USB plugged in to the macbook/mac that isn't mac based it doesn't accept.
    Please can someone help me solve his issue!
    Thankyou!
    Felix

    I know many, many of us who are running things just fine.
    I have to be really honest with you Ben and say... Where are you getting that idea from because it simply isn't so.....
    I have a quite large client list of Logic users from all over the world... and of those that have attempted to use Logic Pro X and Yosemite together... over 80% have had to revert back to a previous configuration because of performance and/or stability related issues...
    I personally, have on test here at the studios...  7 different Macs  ranging from 2010 Mac Mini i7 Servers to 2011 32GB 3.4Ghz iMacs.. to a maxed out 2013 i7 MBP to a top of the line 2014 Mac Pro and all have demonstrated issues regarding performance and stability with LPX and 10.10.x using a variety of different Audio/Midi interfaces, all of which have supposedly 10.10 compatible drivers... and all of which have no such issues running LPX under Mavericks...
    Just a quick scan across the various forums.. indicates that very few people are successfully running LPX under Yosemite without performance problems.... so that's why I am asking where you are seeing 'many many people" because I am just not seeing that myself...
    Cheers..

  • Soundflower, Logic Pro X and Ustream

    I broadcast a show on Ustream in which I play the saxophone against trax that I have
    loaded into iTunes. I play the sax into an apogee USB mic. I also use that same mic
    to talk to the audience while trax are playing, at which time I need to adjust the level of the track
    and the mic. I’m working on a Mac Pro with Logic Pro X.
    Up until now, here’s what I’ve been doing.
    In Mac Audio Midi Setup:
    I set the output device in Audio Midi Setup to Soundflower (2ch).
    I set the input device in Audio Midi Setup to Mic.
    In Logic Pro X:
    In preferences I set the input device to Mic, and the output to
    to Soundflower (2ch)
    In Ustream:
    I set the input to Soundflower (2ch)
    For monitoring:
    I set the Soundflowerbed desktop app to route from Soundflower to Built-in Output which I then
    listen to on my headphones as I do the show.
    This works, in a fashion, but is extremely awkward, in that the only way to lower the music track levels when I want to speak on the mic is by lowering the slider on iTunes.
    Here’s what I want to do, but can’t yet figure out, despite many attempts:
    I want to route both the iTunes and the mic into Logic Pro X.
    I want to be able to mix both the mic and the trax in Logic Pro X and then
    output it into Ustream for broadcast.
    I also want to be able to monitor the mix though my headphones.
    I’ve tried creating aggregate devices and multi-output devices but can’t seem to get what i want.
    The permutations I’ve tried and the problems are too numerous and varied to list here.
    But I’d appreciate any ideas on how to accomplish running a system + mic input into logic,
    mixing in there, and then piping the combined trax out through Ustream.
    Thanks.

    serisony,
    Make sure your router allows or has multicast enabled... as this is required..
    and..
    Check if you have a firewall operating either on your Mac or in your Router... (On the Mac this also includes apps like Little Snitch... and not just the OS X firewall itself.)

  • Logic Pro 9 and Apogee Duet

    I recently upgraded to Logic Pro 9 and for some reason I am unable to record an Audio track via my sE2200a mic and Apogee Duet. I was able to do so before the upgrade. I cannot be definate that the problem occurred immediately after the upgrade, because I was not doing any audio recording for a while (I was using using loops and midi recording).
    I went thru the setup manual for the Apogee Duet but the screens do not match the screen shots in the manual anymore and so I am not sure the Apogee Duet is set up properly to work with Logic Pro 9. When I sing into the mic, I see the recording levels on the Apogee Duet move so the mic seems to be working, but I cannot get any audio into Logic pro. I would appreciate it if either someone could point me in the direction of an updated manual for the Apogee Duet and/or Logic Pro that details how the Audio setup should be done, or any other ideas to stop me from pulling my hair out!
    I am pretty new to Apple, Logic Pro and the Apogee Duet, so be gentle!:-)
    Thank you.

    Hi Ervin,
    In order to be able to record the audio, you must "record enable" the audio track. There is a small button on the track labeled "R" (beside the mute and solo buttons). When you click it, it turns red, thus indicating the audio track is armed and ready to record.
    Also, make sure your audio track is set to the correct input. I have my mic plugged into XLR input 2 on my Duet, so I must select "Input 2" on the audio track in Logic.
    See if that works for you.

  • Logic Pro X and Eleven Rack Sound Card Problem. Intermittent? MacBook Pro Yosemite. Anyone having this issue too?

    Ok,
    Avid Eleven Rack Audio Interface with latest firmware into usb MacBook Pro running 10.10.3 (latest Yosemite)
    Logic X and the sound card do not see the Eleven Rack all the time. *Intermittently*, but more often than not, I can't select the eleven rack as my interface either in Logic X Preferences>Audio>Devices or System Preferences>sound pref as the eleven rack does not show up in either list to be able to even select it.
    Real pain when you are writing and have a flow of ideas and need to get a recording down. Anyone else having this issue? I have tried both usb ports in the macbook pro and the same results.
    Of course I unplug and replug the usb cable. Still nothing. I have to quit Logic Pro X and restart to even get a chance for the eleven to even show up in either list.
    Once I can select it then I also have a problem with being able to record (it records and gets input not prob) but on playback their is no output (with correct output selected) so I then have to use a Logic X template where the output is set exactly the same as what I am trying currently but for some reason it works with the template on the same exact settings. Mighty pain. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am going to try my Eleven on another computer to see what happens too but thought I would ask here.
    Thanks
    ejh

    First make sure you are using the latest drivers...
    http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/en_US/Download/Eleven-Rack-Drivers
    However the latest ones are not yet confirmed as working to OS X 10.10.3 so you may need to wait for an update from Avid....
    Test and see....
    Note: It's always a good idea not to update OS X or Logic Pro until after you have checked if there are working drivers for your external hardware first.. especially, in my personal opinion... in the case of Avid hardware drivers which are know to lag behind in development..

  • How to uninstall Logic Pro 8 and Reinstall Logic Pro 7.2?

    For numerous reasons I'd like to uninstall Logic Pro 8 and return to Logic Pro 7, the reasons for which I'd rather not discuss, as I'd like to focus on the reinstallation task.
    Apple states that Logic Pro 7 still functions, but this is not entirely correct. Since many instruments were replaced, the complex 50-track songs that I painstakingly mixed on pure LP7 (prior to the upgrade) now sound completely different in LP7 post-LP8 install (as well as LP8 as you can imagine). It seems that the levels are actually different on some of the EXS and other instruments. Yes, Apple says they are richer and better, but I really don't care. I am in the middle of a CD and need to return to the state I was in prior to the upgrade.
    Ultimately I'd like to reinstall Logic Pro 7 and/or its content in order to get all of my original instruments back.
    Does anyone have a procedure for this? Should I uninstall Logic Pro 8 and then perform a complete reinstall of Logic Pro 7 following Apple's procedure? Or should I simply use Pacifist to replace the content files that were replaced? Will any of my preferences (plug-in settings) be lost during a reinstall? Should the rest of Logic Studio be uninstalled as well?
    Thanks so much in advance.
    P.S. I'm just looking for a procedure and do not wish to discuss the reasons, which you'll find all over the forums.

    Regarding copying the settings, these should all be in my personal user folder, correct? My plugin settings should all reside here as I understand. Would ANY customized settings reside anywhere OTHER than my user folder? *Yes, everything should live here, but it never hurts to snoop around the other folders just in case.*
    I had modified some EXS instrument settings, but did not import new ones.
    Where would the personal EXS settings exist - in my user folders or elsewhere? *All exs are stored Library / Application Support / Logic or GarageBand. The audio files for instrument should be stored there as well. You will need to copy and save both the instrument file and the associated audio files*.
    If I simply modified an EXS instrument within a song, my understanding is that would be a property of the song itself, correct? *Yes, if you did not save the exs instrument as new instrument, it settings are stored with the song.*
    Also,
    Which folders am I deleting when I "delete both versions of Logic"? *You can delete ANY and all folders associated with them. Delete them out of the Apps folder, utilities, and Application support*.
    And how would I delete the new Logic 8 content - where does it reside? *The Library. Not in front of my mac so sorry I can't be more specific.*
    I just spoke to Apple and they recommended an "Erase and Restore" of the entire system, and a reinstall of Logic 7 in order to get me back to where I was - do you agree? *Yes, that is the preferred method but only if you are willing or in a position to start from scratch i.e re-installing all 3rd party apps, hardware drivers ect. Remember to back up all your important files.*
    Thanks!

    I guess you won't be able to do that, because you should use the AppStore to buy and download the software.
    What's the problem with your MacBook Pro? Does it's AirPort work? If it does, just find a WiFi network fast enough to be able to download a few Gb of data (e.g. friend's house). You can even try a local coffee shop, if you don't plan to download all the additional content
