Logic Pro, the only host to not support midi out from plugins ?
it seems that logic is the only host that does not support midi plugin output.
something to do with the AU spec, lets hope that apple add support for these type of plugins sometime in the near future.
Um, yeah. The Environment.
Sensational.
Here's one set of instructions on how to build a step sequencer using the environment:
http://www.logic-cafe.com/Article_View.asp?ID=6&CategoryID=7
Though I can confirm that it works, that is just so amazingly, utterly, retardedly bass-ackwards (the German phrase is "von hinten durch die Brust ins Auge" - "from behind, through the chest, and into your eye") that it's a perfect example of why I HATED Logic 7 and previous versions:
There was always a way to do almost anything in at least a halfways-working fashion, but you had to actually know one of the engineers at Emagic to have the slightest clue of how to get it done.
Logic 8 is the first version that actually feels like it was built for HUMANs.
In short, I'm afraid that building a step sequencer in the environment really does not qualify as an option.

Logic Pro X keeps sending C0 notes to midi out when record is armed on a audio track
I have a annoying problem with Logic Pro X, which I bought a month ago. Here's al little scenario that describes the problem.
I disconnect my audio interface, so that Logic Pro has to rely on my MacBook Pro's internal audio. This way I exclude my RME-FF800 from being of any influence.
I start up the Midi Monitor tool, to analyse what comes out of Logic; MIDI-wise.
I start up Logic set up a small test project in Logic Pro X, that contains:1 audio track
There's little button on the audio track with a red-colored "R". This is the button to "arm" this track for recording audio.
I push the little "R" button, the R-character turns white, the button as a whole turns red. The button starts blinking.
From this moment on Logic starts sending MIDI messages ....... huh? Every second or so ... a low C.
In my regular studio setup this means that I hear a low repeated note coming out of my piano, every time I record audio. How annoying!!
By the way ... a Guitar/Bass track has the same problem. All the other track types (External midi, software instrument, drummer) don't have this problem.
Help is deeply appreciated, because it drives me crazy and if I can't fix this .... I think I have to return to my previous DAW-of-choice (Cubase 7.5).
Here's the Midi Monitor output.

So.. first make sure you have force quit any iPad/iPhone Logic/midi related apps and not just closed them..
Then if that doesn't fix things.. delete Logic's CS preferences... and Logic's own user preferences too...as described here..
Delete the user preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go 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 X User Manual for details on how to do this. If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro X, then you may also wish to delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
If you have upgraded from an earlier version of Logic Pro, you should also remove~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.
Restart the computer.
Do not forget to Quit Logic before doing this and then restart the Mac after doing this.... -

I am trying to import standard midi file that I created in Band in a Box into Logic Pro 9. I can not get all the track to play with internal instrument sounds... only the piano track. how can I get the others to play... drums, bass etc???? Help
Don't drag the midi into an open Logic project. The tracks won't set up correctly.
'Open' the midi file with Logic as if it were a Logic project. Then all the tracks will be set up so you can start editing them and applying better saved sounds and instruments, but you'll be at a starting place where you can hear what's going on. -
What is the best MIDI controller for Logic, and is Axiom Pro the only line with "Hyper Control?
What is the best MIDI keyboard/control surface to use with LOGIC (Studio - which I assume is the latest & greatest version) and is Axiom Pro the only line that has Hyper control? I already own the Axiom Pro 61, but prefer more keys, and though I like much about it, the keys aren't very easy for playing more complex material, and there is an obvious delay regarding attack response (esp. noticeable at faster speeds). There are other issues as well I've read of regarding key sticking (though I consider myself lucky mine do not, there is nontheless a sluggish clunckiness issue which neither helps agility/acuracy nor the delay factor.) and the unit not lasting very long before it breaks and needs repairing. And lastly, I am no fan of Avid and care not to support them in the least.
Sorry, but is this an iPad question? Axiom Pro 61 is not an iPad-compatible peripheral, so perhaps you mean to post in the Logic forum?

I have a mid 2009 Macbook Pro and i know the Mini-display port does not support audio out but does it support HDMI out? or do i have to buy a Mini-display to DVI and then a DVI to HDMI adapters?
Run MDP to HDMI for picture. Use a cable like this to run sound from your audio out on your Mac to your TV's audio in. That's about all you can do.

I'm being shown an error pop-up message periodically saying "There was a problem connecting to the server. URLs with the type 'file:' are not supported." I have a brand new MacBook Pro, and at no time am I actually having trouble connecting to the server, but this message continues to pop-up several times a day at random intervals. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Or is my computer just having a glitch? Other than that, and a mildly sticking caps lock button, it's working perfectly.
Thank you!Alright it didn't solve it. Any other suggestions?
I haven't suggested a solution yet. I want to know whether you still get the messages while Time Machine is disabled. Do you? If so, try any or all of the solutions proposed in this thread:

The requested operation is not supported on forward only result sets.
hi,
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: The requested operation is not supported on forward only result sets when using rs.relative() method. this exception occurs when using com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc
st = con.createStatement();
rs= st.executeQuery("select * from emp1");

regards,
gopiI suggest you use the following instead of 'relative'. Its a more standard way of doing it.

Is Logic Pro the Best Audio Recording Software for Mac?
Couple questions. I do a lot of audio production and work currently. I use a gateway with Cubase, and its not bad, but I feel like I need something mroe high end.
I'm looking at the 17 inch Imac. Does anyone record using this computer? How's it sound? Is there any way to put in a new soundcard or something if i don't like the current one?
Secondly, is logic pro the most advanced and best audio recording software for the mac? Are there others as well?
I know about Pro Tools, but it seems like there isn't anything high end enough that is TOO high end.
Does the Pro version have superior mixing capabilties. I am primarily going to be micing a guitar amp and having a mixer run into a firewire port, and also using a preamp for my guitar direct into the computers USB.
Lastly, how are the mixing features on Logic Pro vs. Logic Express? I do a lot of post production mixing as well, and use VST plugins. Speaking of that, will it accomodate using a drum program like BFD through VST or Midi like Cubase will?
Thanks for your time guys.Couple questions. I do a lot of audio production and

Yes, you do indeed need sth more high end.

It's not an iMac, but a faithful PowerBook G4 that I am using. Apples Core Audio is awesome. Your sound, however, will depend on your interface.

That's why we are here, and that's why you ended up in this forum as well
To me personally, Logic sounds warmer and bigger than any ProTools system I've ever heard. From what yopu described as the work you need to do, there is no comparable application. Logic also offers you many more features above and beyond what you currently need to do.
I know about Pro Tools, but it seems like there isn't
anything high end enough that is TOO high end.
Everybody is using PT, and you should maybe get a Light Edition version of it. However, as stated above, Logic offers by far more possibilities.

capabilties. I am primarily going to be micing a

port, and also using a preamp for my guitar direct

For your purpose, Logic does have superior mixing capabilities. In my humble opinion, only the popularity of PT made it become the choice of studios and engineers, but things are turning...
Lastly, how are the mixing features on Logic Pro vs.
Logic Express? I do a lot of post production mixing
as well, and use VST plugins. Speaking of that, will
it accomodate using a drum program like BFD through
VST or Midi like Cubase will?
If you do post production mixing, forget about Logic Express altogether and go for Logic Pro. LP will accomodate tons of plug-ins, and it comes with a bunch of great one's as well!
The format for the plug-ins is called A(udio) U(nit) and works flawlessly. Many VST plug-ins are also available in AU format and the development of those is moving fast forward.
In other words, yes, you will be able to use BFD in Logic by means of the AU format.
Thanks for your time guys.
You're welcome. -

I have updated my Apple TV, tried restarting it, and have tried using my IPod Touch all without any luck. This display has worked in the past. This just happen a couple days ago.
Any ideas out there?I have been successfully using my Apple TV with my iPad2 to access Netflix through airplay (mirroring) and suddenly it won't work. It says "the connected display is not supported" What's up?
Also when I try to stream Netflix through my Apple TV menu on my television it says "An error occurred loading this content. Try again later. But trying again later doesn't work any better.

How to fix "Modifying a column with the 'Identity' pattern is not supported"
When doing Code First Migrations my mobile service always errors in the seed method with: 'Modifying a column with the 'Identity' pattern is not supported. Column: 'CreatedAt'. Table: 'CodeFirstDatabaseSchema.Methodology' for the CreatedAt column. All my
models inherit from EntityData.
// Sample model
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
using Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Mobile.Service;
namespace sbp_ctService.Models
public class Methodology : EntityData
public Methodology()
this.Scenarioes = new List<Scenario>();
public string Id { get; set; }
[Required]
[StringLength(50)]
public string EntryMethod { get; set; }
[Required]
[StringLength(50)]
public string TestDirection { get; set; }
[Required]
[StringLength(50)]
public string PassCriteria { get; set; }
[Required]
[StringLength(50)]
public string Dependency { get; set; }
public bool ExtraInfo { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Scenario> Scenarioes { get; set; }
And in my Configuration.cs file during an update here's my seed method:
protected override void Seed(sbp_ctService.Models.sbp_ctContext context)
// This method will be called after migrating to the latest version.
context.Methodologies.AddOrUpdate(
m => m.Id,
new Methodology { Id = "Methodology1", EntryMethod = "P/F", PassCriteria = "P/F", Dependency = "None", ExtraInfo = false, TestDirection = "Round" },
new Methodology { Id = "Methodology2", EntryMethod = "P/F", PassCriteria = "Best", Dependency = "None", ExtraInfo = false, TestDirection = "Round" },
new Methodology { Id = "Methodology3", EntryMethod = "P/F", PassCriteria = "Best", Dependency = "None", ExtraInfo = false, TestDirection = "In/Out" },
new Methodology { Id = "Methodology4", EntryMethod = "P/F", PassCriteria = "Best", Dependency = "None", ExtraInfo = false, TestDirection = "Out" }
For some reason on an update the CreatedAt field is created and given a value of null. So of course on an insert/update it will error because CreatedAt is an Identity field.
I've tried to configure the modelBuilder in my context to tell it that CreatedAt is an identity field, but that still doesn't work.
modelBuilder.Entity<Methodology>()
.Property(m => m.CreatedAt)
.HasDatabaseGeneratedOption(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity);
So far the only way to fix this is by commenting out my Seed data, but it's not a fix. I've seen other solutions where you can force it to not serialize certain fields, but I don't know if those solutions apply.So I think this occurs because you might have created the database (Code-first) with POCOs that didn't have the CreatedAt field in them. I think that's what I did and the easiest way to fix it for me was to delete my database and re-create it with my POCOs
inheriting from Entity Data from the very beginning. We were still in development so it worked out for us but I know some people might not be able to do that. Here's what my table looks like after it was created correctly:
USE [database_name]
GO
/****** Object: Table [sbp_ct].[Methodologies] Script Date: 2/24/2015 9:48:45 PM ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [schema_name].[Methodologies] (
[Id] NVARCHAR (128) NOT NULL,
[EntryMethod] NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[TestDirection] NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[PassCriteria] NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[Dependency] NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[ExtraInfo] BIT NOT NULL,
[Version] ROWVERSION NOT NULL,
[CreatedAt] DATETIMEOFFSET (7) NULL,
[UpdatedAt] DATETIMEOFFSET (7) NULL,
[Deleted] BIT NOT NULL,
[Name] NVARCHAR (MAX) NULL
GO
CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX [IX_CreatedAt]
ON [schema_name].[Methodologies]([CreatedAt] ASC);
GO
ALTER TABLE [schema_name].[Methodologies]
ADD CONSTRAINT [PK_schema_name.Methodologies] PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED ([Id] ASC);
