Logic pro audio units manager

I have Logic 9 . I have Waves native plug ins which I use in Logic. I updated waves and now when I load Logic the audio units examiner freezes up and all plugs ins are disabled. The window showing audio units being examined opens showing the number of audio units to be examined and then nothing happens at all. I spoke with folks at Waves and everything seems ok on their end. Please advise.

the prob is most likely a bad plug in. some of them don't pass validation, others crash the validation program itself. go to the websites of your plug ins and check you have versions that work with your system version and logic version. make sure you check that the fxpansion wrapper is also current. also, if you happen to have the old logic tuner AU plug in from logic 6, get rid of it. it doesn't validate and the tuner is a built in logic plug in now.

Audio Unit Manager: How to remove references to deleted files?

I upgraded my NI software. Replaced Guitar Rig 4 with Guitar Rig 5.
Removed the Guitar Rig 4 components from both system and user Audio/Plugins/Components
directories.
The now-removed plug-ins are still showing in Logic's Audio Unit Manager. Of course they fail validation,
and aren't used. But, leaves a messy listing, and causes other programs (Live, Kore) to also list them try to valid,
and fail.
Any ideas on how to remove these references??

I would love to know this too. I have the worst plug in in the world ( Universal UVI Player) haging around my system although I removed it from all "visible' places.

Logic Pro 7 (7.2.3) Audio Units Manager crashes

Logic Pro 7 (7.2.3) "Audio Units Manager" causes Logic to crash whenever it is selected from the Preferences menu. Most plugins have been wrapped by
FXpansion's VST-AU program successfully, Logic (after much work) finally goes through the validation process on start-up, but I'm unable to see what's happening in the AU Manager. Running Logic on a Mac G4 Dual 1 GHz machine with 1.5 GB of RAM. Any suggestions on what could be causing this problem?

Again thanks for replying

Waves AU Plugins arent showing up in audio units manager

Hi,
I just downloaded some new plugins from waves that are showing up as activated in my Waves License Manager (WLC) but are not showing up in my Logic Pro X audio unites manager. I have tried clicking the rescan and still they dont show up, i tried restarting the applications involved and restart my computer as well but no luck. I have previously purchased and downloaded other waves plugins that are working fine and showing up in Logic, nothing looks different between the ones that are working and those that arent when viewing them in waves license manager. i contacted waves to see if they could help but they said it was a problem with Logic and everything was working properly on their end.
any recommendations or advice??
Thanks,
Reid

I suspect you didn't follow the installation Instructions from Waves....
Did you run the Wave AU Reg Utility first?
If not....
Quit Logic Pro X then....
Run the app which is found in Applications/Waves/Waveshells/ Waves AU Reg Utility 9.3 or later depending on which version of Waves you are using....
Failing that, contact Waves directly for assistance....

My Audio Units Manager DOES NOT exist!... please help.

I recently installed Logic Studio 8. When I first ran it the Audio Units Manager scanned for all of my AU plugins and it did a 'you must hold down the power button and power off' crash when it got about halfway through my 228 AU plugins that have worked fine in Logic 7 for a long time.
When i re-booted the mac and Logic 8 i had no AU plugins and when i go to Preferences menu / Audio Units Manager... nothing happens. I SIMPLY HAVE NO AUDIO UNITS MANAGER.
I cant access it from Waveburner 1.5 either but all of my AU plugins still work fine in Logic Pro 7.2.3
I have tried re-installing Logic Pro 8 and deleted it's preferences and associated receipts and repaired permissions to no avail.... I just cant load my Audio Units Manager
When i click on it in the preferences menu it's as if nothing happens.
Somebody please help... the only solution i see left is a complete re-install?

Try creating a new user account and seeing if it works in that account.
Try renaming your ~\Library\Caches folder to Caches-old, rebooting, and see if it works them.
Make sure you run some disk utils - it's rare for an application or plugin to cause a kernal panic because they don't generally have that level of access to the system, so it might be a sign of something else funky on your system (drivers, or system things).

Amplitube 3 not in Audio Units Manager???

Hello,
Amplitube 3 runs fine as a stand alone and is present within Launchpad. . .but it doesn't show up in Audio Units Manager under Preferences. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Problem solved.
In case anyone is interested. . .here's the solution:
Go to HD > library > application support > IK > delete the amplitube 3 folder.
Go to HD > library > audio > plug ins > components and delete the amplitube3 file here
now reboot and do this. Open the HD > Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility and Repair the disk
permissions on your HD. Now reinstall the 3.8 update for AT 3 and retry it.
If anybody knows what happened initially with Logic I'd love to know!

Logic Pro 9 WILL NOT recognise EZdrummer in Audio Units Manager, HELP??

I recently purchased and installed Toontrack's EZdrummer plug-in to work inside Logic Pro.
However, after a week of trying, I for some bizarre reason cannot get Logic to recognize the plug-in/vst.
All week i've conquered the internet looking for solutions but sadly nothing has helped, i've tried everything from trashing cache files to rescanning audio units to manually moving files...STILL NOTHING!
This problem has annoyed many people as I scroll effortlessly down Google looking at other peoples quetions and responses, yet nothing works for me. PLEASE SOMEBODY KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS!

Basic Troubleshooting steps...
First of all Logic Pro cannot use VSTs.. It uses AudioUnit (AU) Plugins..
Have you checked the AU Manager (Found under the Logic Pro menu item...) to see if it installed and validated correctly
If it is not there, it did not install correctly in which case reinstall or failing that contact ToonTracks for assistance.
If it is there but not validated, select it and manually recscan it to validate it. If it fails to validated again contact ToonTracks..
if it is there and validated,
When you start a new project in Logic and create a Software Instrument track.. and then you press and hold the Software Instrument button in the track strip.. do you see the ToonTracks entry? (along with all the Logic Pro's plugins and other 3rd party AU Plugins you may have installed)
The Software Instrument button is located as shown in this screenshot..

Logic 8 Audio Units

Hi, I'm running Logic 8 and recently (I think since I updated to Snow Leopard) every time I open Logic after shutting down and restarting my MacBook Pro it scans the Audio Units. I know it scans when new AU's are installed, but I haven't put any new AU's on in a while. Is this just because Snow Leopard and Logic 8 don't always play nice? Or is there something else that I'm missing? I plan on updating to 9 eventually, but right now the updates don't outweigh the cost. Thanks for any help

Hi,
Your Audio Unit plugins need to be updated to versions that support Snow Leopard. Go to each of your third party plug in manufacturer's websites, and download their latest versions.

Logic Pro audio error 10011 (drop out)

I bought a new mac mini yesterday that meets all requirements for Logic. I bought it to run Logic as a dedicated machine linked to a keyboard. Apart from the basic software that came with it, Logic is the only software installed on it. Installed it after I did all the updates. Aiport & bluetooth is now turned off, and I don't have it hooked up to a network.
Brand new, 10.6 factory fresh system, 2gbs ram and 91 GB of pure virgin hard drive space. Doesn't get much cleaner than that.
And it wont run the demo songs without the audio error..... and these are their demos!!! I really doubt they would choose demo songs that are too complex to play, so why the errors?
I tried running through the demos and re-running them. This did help, but one demo is still bawking half way through.
This just does not make sense to me. Is there something I'm missing? I am new to Logic Pro, moving up from garageband. Not sure if this:
'System Overload.The audio engine was not
able to process all required data in time.
(-10011)'
is this what many here refer to as ' dropping out'?
Help!!!!
(ignore Model and machine listed below -different machine)

Hi,
Thanks for your replies. I did move demos to the Hard drive (found out that the hard way!)
The thing is the mini is to be used exclusively for music, and is hooked up to a pro88 midi keyboard. 90% of the time it will be used for Mainstage, with some editing in Logic.
It sure does a fine job with GarageBand - no issues there.
My main machine is a MacPro, and I have three other (older) iMacs. So I really didn't want to spend more than I have to. As the Mac will be only used for music and nothing else (not even internet etc.) I was hoping that it would be up to the task of running Logic, as it does meet the needed specs.
My worry is that moving up to a iMac (which would almost double my investment to $1300) might not necessarily do much. I am not willing to dedicate a big machine like a MacPro to the task -way too expensive for my budget.
So.... being new to Logic, is there a chance settings are the culprit. Is current practice to work on a few tracks, and freeze them, then continue to add new tracks? Or is it more common to leave everything un-frozen when working on stuff?
Options I am aware of are:
•Freeze tracks
•Buffer size set to 1028
anything else?
If the mini is not fully up to the task, would the low end iMac really be any better? or will it to be not up to the task either, in which case there is no point shelling out more. From what I have read, the even the biggest machines stumble from time to time.
Thanks again for your input, I do value it!

Logic Pro Audio Problems

Just installed Logic Pro 9 and got this error: "Error code -2 was returned by the Audio driver". Help!

My audio driver is up to date. However after installation it just keeps crashing when trying to open or play or work on a project. Also throwing this message "System Overload. The audio engine was not able to process all required data in time. (-10011)".

Why are my logic pro audio files saving in my iTunes folder in the finder?

When i go to the finder, in my itunes section all my logic audio files appear and i have hundreds. im not quite sure whether this is normal or not? any explantions on how i can sort the files out and avoid them being saved in that folder in the future?

You could look in File > Project Settings > Recording and there's a button labelled 'Set..' for you to make sure that any of your Logic project files are stored in the right folder - the usual sequence of events is that Logic asks you to define a recording path as soon as you arm your first audio track and a project folder is actually created for you, so.....
I haven't thought enough about how iTunes works (I use it sometimes, that's all) but a playlist or some kind of other category might have a folder containing links (aliases) to the original files ?

Logic Pro Audio and External Peavey Faders

Can someone please advise me on the enviornment for an external Peavey Fader, for use on audio files in the automation area of the Arrange page.

Download the Swiftkick Logic Environment Toolkit and read the e.pdf file.
There you will find the solution to your problem.
If you are not so accustomed with the environment I'd suggest you to read, in order, the files (always pdf) Toolkit, q (quickstart), a (advanced) and then e (examples).
Here is the link:

Hmm. Looks like the image didn't load. Try this.

Audio unit manager

Has anyone had luck using AudioUnit Manager to establish different custom sets of AU's? It was advised to control to the increasing numbers I have, but it doesn't work well for me. Typically when trying to delete AU's from a new set I get an error message about having trouble renaming the AU.
Any suggestions or alternative solutions? I looked at AudioFinder, but while that may be great for certain applications it didn't seem to handle this well.
Thanks,
JC
