Logic pro 9 with akai miniak synthesizer/midi recording audio output!?
I'm using logic pro 9 with my akai miniak/midi. I know how to use the sounds/instruments in logic pro but I want to record "programs/instruments" from my miniak synthesizer keyboard. It shows that Logic receives that info but there is no audio sound when I play it back.
Midi = Data only not Audio
To record Audio from your Akai.... You need to connect audio cables from your Akai's audio outputs to Audio inputs on an audio interface connected to your Mac..

Logic Pro X with OSX Mavericks 10.9.2 Audio output cuts out 3-5 minutes into running software?
Logic Pro X with OSX 10.9.2 Audio output cuts out 3-5 minutes into running software how can I fix this?
Well, first....
Are you using any 3rd party plugins in your project?
If not then my suggestion wont be the cause......
To see which plugins you have installed (Though it's only if they are being actually used in the project that would cause your issue..) you can see them via the Audio Unit Manager found under the Logic Pro X menu bar..... Logic Pro X..... Audio Unit Manager
Also, any reason you are still using 10.9.2 instead of updating to 10.9.5?
Do you get any message when the audio cuts out?
Are you only using internal audio hardware or are you using an external Audio Interface? if so, which one? -
Logic pro 8 with akai mpc 1000!
I would like to know if I can use the drums sounds in logic with an mpc 1000. I would feel better using the pads on the machine to create a drum beat instead of a mouse. Plus it might save me time and $ to look for the drums.
any suggestions?I went into system preferences and put in the input to the audio interface, and the output to the headphones that I was using. Within system preferences, when I hit the pads it indicated that there were levels, however I still couldn't hear any sound.
You were in System Preferences > Sound > Input, and you were watching the meter there. Watching that meter is a good way to confirm that your MPC is producing audio, and that your audio interface is properly conveying that audio into your computer. However, the controls in this window are generally irrelevant to Logic. These controls are mostly relevant when you are working with programs like iTunes and Quicktime Player. To get audio in and out of Logic, you have to create the proper settings inside Logic. Those settings inside Logic are here: Logic Pro > Preferences > Audio > Devices > Core Audio. Look at the Device menu. This is where you have to make sure your FireWire Solo audio interface is selected. Is it?
And then attach your headphones to the FireWire Solo, not to your Mac.
Create a new project in Logic, and create an audio track, and make sure that track is record-enabled (click R in the track header). That's all you should have to do. Hit the pads on the MPC, and you should hear it in your headphones, and you should see meters lighting up in Logic.
This should work if you haven't changed any other Logic settings from their defaults. If it doesn't work, there are a few other simple things to check.
You may eventually want to create a midi connection between Logic and the MPC, and not just an audio connection. But you can worry about that later. -
Logic Pro 7 with MOTU 828 or Apogee Ensemble??
I've been using Logic with MOTU's 828MKII interface for about 4 years now. Since couple of days go, the 828 keeps freezing. I had to turn unit off and turn it back on and it starts to work again, but freezes again couple seconds later. I've talked to MOTU guys and they told me to switch voltage back and forth and try again. Same thing.
I finally came to 2 option.
1. Send the unit to MOTU and get it fixed and hope to work with it without anymore problem in the future.
2. Get the new MOTU 828MKIII
3. Get Apogee's Ensemble audio interface. (this one is really pricey for me)
What do you guys think?
Should I just get 828MKii fixed or try new gears..?
I'm a starting film/TV composer/producer and beginning to
do quite large projects.
My set up is
-G5 Quad PowerPC with 2.5GB RAM
-250GB main hardrive, 500GB second internal hardrive
-Yamaha HS50M Speaker
-Yamaha S90ES Synthesizer
-Apple Cinema 23inch
-Running Logic Pro 7 with bunch of samples
and plug-ins in my second internal hard drive.
Share your opinions please.
Thanks
ChrisMotu use to make one of the most reliable drivers in industry. If you're happy with it and can get it fixed... so why not stick with it for a while?
On the other hand the new Apogee's software seems to be really solid and Ensemble's converters are much better than MKII.
So get the 828 fixed, stick with it for a while, save some cash, buy the Ensemble, dump the old 828.
Hope that helps -
Can't create a new project in Logic pro . Goes straight to a midi file. Do I shut something down before trying to create a new project?
When you open Logic, close the project that its automatically brought up (see CCT's answer above, which explains how you can change that behaviour, if you like - I usually want to listen to the last thing I was doing, but its your choice - and then File>New.
So, yeah, you do have to close the currently loaded project first. -
Is music created in logic pro compatible with the logic pro x ? for instance if you have created something in logic pro and want to add or tweak it, is that possible? I suppose you would need the original logic folder?
Yes it is more or less compatible, except the use of 32 bit plugins, which is prohibited from now on. So although you're able to open Logic projects as far as down to v5 I believe, it is advisable to remain for 'adding and tweaking' in your pre LPX environment.
Have a nice day! -

The installer for Logic Pro 8 has a bug which keeps it from operating in Lion or Mt. Lion. Use the program Pacifist to install it.

Re: Macbook Pro 10.6.8 RAM Upgarde to 8 GB
The amount of RAM is not dependant on the operating system. It is all about the model of you Mac.
10.6.8 is the version of OS X that is installed on your system. It has no real baring on the amount of RAM that CAN be installed.
Personally I have never had good luck with Corsair RAM. I have always had good luck with Crucial and Kingston.

I had to wipe out my laptop, I am waiting to get my serial number back. I need to know how I download Logic Pro 9 with the codes I already have.
If you bought the boxed set of Logic Studio 2.0 which includes LP9, then you cannot download it. You must use the disks that came as part of the boxed set... to install from.
If you bought the App Store version of Logic Pro 9 then go to the Mac App Store App, Sign into the Store using the same Apple ID you used to purchase LP originally, look under the Purchase Tab and you shouldl find LP9 ready and waiting for you to download and install. -

hi I am attempting to use a Zed R-16 with Logic Pro 9, how can I setup a bounce for output 17-18 this is where the mixer sums (the audio outputs on the zed come through 17-18)
I would like to be able to quickly bounce down my mixes, through the Zed outputs.Pancenter...
Yes... but I have come across some setups that came with a native SL (and even one Lion!) installation.. that somehow had a corrupted or older Prokit installed for some unknown reason... and given it's a quick fix to try.. I thought I'd mention it..
I frankly don't think it is entirely a Prokit issue itself, but it wouldn't do any harm to try and install v7 just in case it is part of the problem...
+1 on the UAD stuff....
Also, at the time it crashed... according to the logs...the OP was running Ableton Live at the same time, presumably rewired with Logic... so add all that together with UAD plugins... and that's quite a load on the system...
Finally in thread 32 there is a weird exception msg relating to the Trash2 plugin.. that I haven't seen before...

Premiere Pro Timeline with 3 video channels and 4 audio channels, when clip dragged onto timeline audio channels change to 8 channels. Audio track mixer changes too. I edit undo to remove dragged clip and it reverts back to 4 channels of audio on timeline as does the audio mixer? Any ideas as to why the audio channels and mixer changes?
you can check the clip you are dragging to the timeline, if it has 8 tracks... can check by right clicking it in the project bin, choose modify, audio channels.

Hello,
My midi keyboard isn't registering on Logic Pro 8 and I can't work out why. It's all plugged up correctly. The sound card outputs fine - I can hear what I've previously recorded but can't input any more. Any help gratefully received.
Stephen.Hi, thanks for reply. I was running Logic Express but upgraded. Now I seem to have problems. I have latest drivers for my audiophile. The operating system is 10.4.11. The keyboard just doesn't seem to register - in or out. I've spent hours on the environment, trying to decide which of the conflicting video tutorials to follow......

Logic Pro 8 with Triton Studio MIDI Data Not Sending
I have a Triton Studio (Korg), recently got a MIDI IN/OUT to USB plug in, for my macbook.
Never done this before, thus am trying to figure this out:
My computer is showing that the USB plug in is indeed there, and Logic Pro sees the device as well... however when I punch the keys in the keyboard, the data does not seem to transfer into the Logic Pro track.
I just want to get it set up, so I can record onto Logic Pro 8, creating music on this software. As in playing my board, having the software receive what I am playing. Just piano stuff really... Any help I can get is appreciated, I have looked through all sorts of forums and manuals, but maybe an explanation would help, or clarity on what the basic settings should be at, so it can work, then if it still does not work, then maybe there's another issue.
Also, when I start Logic Pro 8, it says "Cannot find DAE Folder in "System Folder" them "ESB TDM Plug-in not found"
Are these anything to worry about? This computer is used, thus I am not the first owner.CCTM wrote:

The cable labeled IN goes to the MIDI OUT port on the keyboard....etc.
You need to use an external MIDI track or a Software (virtual) Instrument track to record MIDI.
Normally this is correct, but I have seen a USB Interface where the cables are labelled the other way round.... IN goes to IN, OUT goes to OUT.
Crazy situation, but might be worth checking?
CCT
That's one I've never seen but have no doubt they exist.
Perhaps a quality control issue.... Nah!
To the O.P.
Does the Korg Triton have to be enabled for MIDI out.
As I recall some Korg Triton models had both MIDI ports and a built in USB interface and there was a MIDI Menu where either port could be enabled. It's worth checking into even if your model does not have the built-in USB output.
Are you using 10.6.8 like your tagline says?
