Logic Pro 9 - MOTU MK II inputs not available in channel strip

I usually use a MOTU 24 i/o as my main Logic Pro 9.1.5 audio interface. I'm trying to use a MOTU MK II and it is connected via firewire. It shows up fine in the Logic > Audio > core audio driver preference and is checked on. However the MKII in/outs are not available on Logic's channel strip inputs and outputs. Logic still shows the 24 i/o's even though the 24 i/o is not selected in audio preferences and is not even turned on.
I've reinstalled the latest MOTU drivers, trashed Logic's preferences and restarted my MacPro but it is still the same. Only the 24 i/o available in the channel strip input and output.
Is there a second audio i/o setting that I'm missing?
My Mic is registering OK in the MKII so I know it is getting a signal.
Thanks,
Richard

For some reason Logic is listing the 24 i/o inputs.
I've renamed the 828 Mk2 1 & 2 inputs to Vox 1 and Vox 2. The MK2 has 8 analog inputs plus two mic/line inputs for a total of ten audio inputs, not 14 as listed in the channel strip input drop down.
Audio registers in and out of the Mk2 but does not register in Logic's channel strip input. I just switched back to the 24 i/o to test and audio registers fine in Logic's channel strip input with the 24 i/o. Just not with the MK2 selected as the audio source.
I'm curious if anyone else has had this problem or if I'm missing an audio input setting somewhere.
Thanks,
Richard

Logic Pro 7.2.1 Update is not recognizing my 7.2.0 app. HELP!

grrrrr, this is so frustrating!
Logic Pro 7.2.1 Update is not recognizing my 7.2.0 app. Any ideas?

To prevent cheating, the updater checks the receipts
first — receipts files look like regular package
files, but they're actually a list of pointers to the
files installed from that package, together with
their attributes: location, checksums, owner,
permissions, and so on... That's how the repair
permissions function works.
If you messed with your receipts folder, you may be
out of luck: in this case, re-installing everything
will rebuild the receipts and the updating
should take place.
Yet another option would be to use Pacifist:
http://www.charlessoft.com/
• it allows the user to create receipts for [.pkg]
packages
• it can be used to force installation of any file
from a given package
Be aware that Pacifist doesn't run any of the
pre-install, post-install, pre-upgrade, or
post-upgrade scripts, doesn't check already existing
receipts, and doesn't alter the permissions
afterwards, so you'd better know what you're doing...
nice illustration on the repair permissions....

When i try to open my projekt in logic pro x it say audio files not found?

when i try to open up a projekt in logic pro x it say audio files not found why is this heppends?

This error typically means the audio files you used in this project are no longer found in their original location.. (did you move or delete them?) or you have renamed the audio files..... or they were located on an external HD etcand that drive or disk is no longer available.... because its not plugged in.

Please help! Logic Pro 9 & Motu 8 pre

I recently upgraded some of my home studio gear, and in that just added a second MOTU 8pre.
Here's my roadblock...
I'd like to run both MOTU 8pres so that I can record 16 tracks simultaneously.
Using the built in CueMix Console I can monitor all 16 tracks.
(I'm using 1st Motu as my main interface with optical outs from the 2nd Motu into the optical inputs of the 1st Motu.)
But once I try to monitor or record channels 9-16 through Logic Pro 9 (even garage band) I get no signal whatsoever.
Maybe I'm missing something, or haven't turned something on. I've checked preferences, etc. with no luck.
Please help! Is what I'm trying to do even compatible between Logic 9 and the MOTU 8 pres??
Thanks in advance,
Lucas

Lucas, it may not make any difference in this situation but the standard setup for digital devices is to have a single lightpipe/ADAT cable from the digital output of the second MOTU into the Digital in of your 1st, (main) MOTU. The 2nd MOTU will be the digital clock master with the 1st MOTU slaving to the digital clock of the 2nd unit.
That is.. unless you're using a third party digital clock driving both units.
p.s. Trust me on the single lightpipe cable.

Logic Pro 8 and PT 7.4 not compatible ...

PT 7.4 is out.
Having Logic 8 on a MAC PRO as a front end for PTHD was supposed to happen with PT 7.4 release.
I downloaded it ($79) trying last night to set Logic 8 in the preference. First I set up the Core audio to my 96i I/o, then selected "DAE". then I Had an error -1133 return by the DAE driver.
I never used Logic with PTHD. Because I have an Intel Mac. SO I guess it is either I dont know what i am doing (Which it wont be the first time) or PT 7.4 is not yet compatible with Logic Pro 8 on intel Mac.
which is what probably the case. I read everything I could on the Digi site, there is nothing at all about Logic Pro 8. One deception down, I dont have to worry about this.

Hi,
I am the original one who posted this but, After hours of nothing but frustration
I have the DAE/DTDM working within Logic 8 And PTHD 7.4. (I have a 96i I/O)
If you are intrested in what I did to make it wok this is it:
In Preference>Audio
1. Disable Core Audio
2. Enable DAE Click on TDM Setup Indicator, I choose 24 Bit, and 48 Tracks (3DSPs). You can click on "Digidesign Hardware Set up" if you want to change something But I did'nt
3. Enable Direct TDM and Universal Track Mode.
Limitation and advantages of running Logic 8 as a front end to PTHD: There are two types of tracks - DAE tracks which uses TDM plugins and Direct TDM tracks with are Audio OR Software Instruments they run All Logic 8 Plugins including Sof Instr. You Can also Use a Node on them (I Works). The problem is you Only have * TDM Device channels. Routed as ESB Mono 1 thru 8 or stereo ESB 1-2 thru 7-8. You have to route the Output of the TDM Device track (ESB 1...8) to an Aux track Input 9ESB 1...8), the Logic effectS are in the TDM Device tracks and Prottols TDM plug ins are in the corresponding Aux tracks
Unortunately All Channel Stereo channel are Double Mono which takes more real estate. When Playing a double Mono the even number could be changed to stereo and it work well as such but you cannot get rid of the other Mono track it has to be next to the stereo track.
When creating tracks in DAE you cannot choose stereo, but one selected you can change it in the arrange to stereo.
I hope this help.
Good luck

Logic pro x greyed out but regions not obviously muted

Hey all,
This is driving me a little nuts. Was working on something this morning then after recording a take all of my other tracks are greyed out and wont play.
I've searched the forums, and the general opinion is that this is caused by region muting. But having checked in all the regions the mute button was off. Trying the CTRL + M mute on tracks would change the mute selection on and off, but it would not rid myself of the greyed out areas.
Really need some help on this asap, getting really frustrated and can't keep working! (sorry, I know we all know this feeling, but we all still need to vent somewhere sometimes!
I've included a screen shot. You can see the last two tracks (one midi one audio) are still working, the rest are all greyed out...

So I just quit out, and re opened the project, and lo and behold everything is unmuted again.
This still isn't making sense to me, and would like to know if anyone can see anything wrong? Logic Pro X does not seem to be conducive to my work flow, to many odd bugs keep re-occurring.

Logic Pro X - Cannot see multiple input options

Hello,
I've been using other DAWs(DP and Studio One 2) but I decided to try Logic Pro X and purchased it yesterday.
I'm using a firewire audio interface which has multiple input options. For example, Ch1 and Ch2 are for mic inputs, ch3 and ch4 are for my external sound module (Yamaha Motif Rack), etc.
I tried to play and record the sound module on Logic, I first added "New External Midi Track". Then, I added "New Audio Track" to record the sound of sound module, like I do on other DAWs. I tried to select the ch 3-4 as an input for the audio track, however I could only see the input ch1-2 as an option for the track.
The audio interface's driver is installed correctly. In fact, I can use the input ch 3-4 with no problem on other DAWs.
Since I'm new to Logic Pro, I might have overlooked how to assign / setup the inputs.
Can anybody let me know how I can activate input ch3-4 on Logic Pro X?
Thanks in advance.
-Holly

Yeah, after I wrote the post, I found out that this happened because "built-in input" was chosen as a default input source on "Preferences -> Audio". That's why it only showed ch1-2. Now I chose my audio interface as the default input and I could see other channels.
That's good, however this brought up a new question, if I want to use multiple input options such as two audio interfaces or combination of built-in input and an audio interface, is it possible to do so?

Logic Pro X amp builder plug in not working

I just downloaded Logic Pro X and Yosemite 10.10.2, was finally able to get a guitar sound but cannot get the amp designer, bass designer, or pedalboard to work or show up on my screen. Under Preferences, it says N.A. for all 3 plug ins. Any ideas? Thanks!

I think what you are doing is relying on the library of patches (which are combos of instruments and FX) and not the instruments themselves...
So try this..
1) Make sure you go to Logic's prefs and turn on all the Advanced Tools. Now LPX will be in LPX mode and not the cutdown/simplified 'Garageband Pro' mode
2) Start a new project and create a Software Instrument Track making sure the Open Library checkbox is unchecked...
3) Now click on the Instrument button in that track's channel strip.... and choose an instrument plugin from the list like EXS24 and then choose by clicking on the Select preset button in EXS24's interface... say the Vintage Strat for a basic sampled guitar
4) Now click on the Audio FX button in the channel strip and choose Amps and Pedals then Pedalboard to bring up the pedalboard FX plugin interface and choose what you want to use as pedals or pedalboard combinations...
Done!

Logic Pro 9 & Motu 828 interface problem ?

Hi all. I am running Logic Pro 9 on my iMac with a Motu 828 mk2 audio interface connected by firewire. It used to work fine with logic but strangely i now have a problem.
It works fine with iTunes music and listening to sounds/mp3s etc from my desktop but as soon as i boot up logic pro and try to work on a project the only sound output i get is very high pitched noises and large gaps between these noises. It wont play any sounds at all through pro even samples via the browser.
Can anyone help or explain what maybe wrong? i havent a clue whats happened!
Thanks in advance for any help

Paul, sounds like the MOTU needs a reset.
- Unplug the firewire
- press the button "setup", turn full
- right until "factory default"
- push select
- confirm with "value"
- Power Off the Interface
- Power On The Interface
- Reboot The Mac - Let it settle
- Plug the Firewire Back In
Did you do an OS upgrade with the MOTU plugged In, any time you do an OS upgrade, even if it's just an incremental one (10.8.3 to 10.8.4) unplug the MOTU, some garbage is usually sent out the firewire port during an OS upgrade.

How do you get the piano roll on logic pro x to show 1/64th notes?

On the piano roll in Logic Pro X the grid only shows like 1/16 notes. I want to be able to zoom in and have the grid at 1/64 notes.

Transport is at the top center of the Logic window. If you click on the "/16" which I circled in red, you will get a drop down menu to change the the note length you want.
Your transport may look different and might not have the "/16" right now. I have a custom transport displayed. "Custom" can be selected by clicking the "gear" icon on the left of the transport. Various options for what to display in the transport can be accessed by right-clicking in the transport bar and selecting "customize transport and display." The option you are looking for will be in the "LCD" section - choose "custom" and check the box for "signature division."

Logic Pro X - Only drum machines do not respond on MIDI controller

98% of the time, when I load a drum machine, only a few of the keys on my MIDI controller will respond with sounds. If I switch to any other instrument patch, all keys work perfectly, but when I switch back, it's still spotty. I've disconnected and reconnected, restarted Logic, restarted the computer, and opened new sessions. Anyone have any advice?

Ahh.. ok, it was hard to tell from your original post.
When loaded are you seeing any notifications that samples are missing?
Could possibly by Logic/controller related. (Is this Logic-X?)
Try deleting Logic's preferences:
In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
Press the Go button.
Remove the com.apple.logic10.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro User Manual for details on how to do this.
If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro.
then delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
be sure to delete both files.

Logic Pro 9 MIDI issues with sustaining notes

I'm a little new to Logic 9 but please bear with me. I have connected my keyboard via MIDI to USB to my Mac and the computer recognizes it perfectly but when I try to play some software instruments it many times continues to play a certain note even after I depressed it. I am not holding down my sustain pedal yet Logic still continues to play a certain note. It does not seem to be a slow fade out or anything like that but rather it seems to be stuck. It does not seem to be really any given note, since it happened to me on different notes. The only way for me to stop Logic from playing is either to switch instruments of reset the MIDI by going to the control panel at the bottom and clicking repeatedly there on MIDI in.
Could someone clue me in on what to do to remedy this issue?

sounds like either logic is not seeing the note off command from the keyboard or the keyboard is not sending it properly. try playing the note that is sticking down and up again and see if the stuck note stops. or take a look at the midi i/o window in the transport at the bottom of the arrange page when you press the note it will show the note and when you let off, it should read off.
Also you may want to limit some info coming into logic and see if that make a difference. go to, project settings>midi>input filter, and check the aftertouch and polyphonic aftertouch, and maybe system exclusive, so that it is filtered out and see if that helps

Logic Pro X help: Track/File menu not showing up in audio editor. How to fix?

Hello,
I am a amature musician that has been using logic pro for a little while now. I recently tried to use the time and pitch machine to stretch a sample to my project length. I open up the audio editor and behold! No file menu. I have looked through all the mues and I cant seem to find it anywhere.
Has anyone experienced this problem and do they know how to fix it?
Thank you

You are in Track view, where you need to be in File view. Those tabs are just outside of your screenshot, it seems. You must have either an enormous screen or a big screen resolution.
As KC said, flex is a more versatile tool, but if you have a set workflow, then the T&P machine is still there.

Hyper -V Win 8 Pro, media option -add disk is not available on some created VM

Hi,
installed Hyper-V on Windows Pro
1.I created VM generation 2 with win2012 server eval.
2.using sysprep to create clone
3. created 3 copy of the file
4.installed 3 machine from file (DC,node1,node2)
4.on DC created domain
5.joined node1 and node2 to domain
6.created cluster
When I was going to install SQL server from ISO to node1 and node2 I noticed that in media action option to attach disk is not available (it show no disk to display) on node1 and node2
However on DC machine I can attach ISO disk!
Why option to attach disk is not available on other machine and how make it available?
Currently I access disk from node1 and2 from domain using \\DC\D\setup.exe
P.S
few days ago I created 3 VM with Win2008R2 server (join then on domain and created cluster),add disk optiion availbale on all win2008R2 machines
Thank you
Alex

Hi AlexMtl,
Based on my knowledge , physical DVD only can be mapped to IDE controller in VM .
"you can only assign the physical CD/DVD drive to one VM at the same time (running VM)."

Gen2 VM can add DVD device attach to SCSI controller and insert .ISO file (this file should be used by multiple VMs ).

Sound Input not available with AJA IO

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with recording sound, using the voice over tool with my AJA IO.
Whenever I try to select ProIO In as source for my, it says "The selected audio source is not available. Maybe it's used by another program, not or wrong connected or there's a conflict with the video output device" (that's not the exact original therms, I translated from German).
I'm using the AJA IO to output video/audio to the sound booth via AES/EBU and Composite. I re-installed the AJA drivers and have no problems to record via SDI.
Maybe it's not possible to output audio/video and simultaneously record audio with the AJA IO?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Best regards,
Martin

Too bad, I really hoped and expected, that this is possible. Unfortunately when I try to use my second sound interface (M-Audio FastTrack Pro), the whole system crashes. So I have to use the built-in line in, what is a shame.
Anyway: Thanks for the info, Jerry!
