LP8: "Create New Auxilliary Channel Strips" won't create stereo

I have recently reloaded Logic Pro v8.0.2 onto a newly reformatted drive running OSX 10.5.8. I have opened a previous session, and brought Logic back out of Universal Track Mode. My mix busses had been converted to mono, so I deleted them and am attempting to recreate them. I'm having trouble creating stereo Aux channels to serve as stereo Bus channels. I try:
Mixer > Options > Create New Auxilliary Channel Strips
I choose these options:
Format: Stereo
Input: Bus 3-4 (for example), "Ascending" is checked
Output: Output 1-2
Upon clicking "Create" I get a mono track. In this example, a channel named Aux 3 which will only accept a mono input. I can therefore assign Bus 3 as the input on this Aux channel, but not Bus 3-4. There's no mono or stereo link-rings icon in the lower left of the Aux strip for me to toggle between stereo and mono.
Could someone explain what I'm doing wrong? Happy new year, all. - Jeff

I've got Core Audio going, and my interface is MOTU 828 mkII. My typical workflow has been with Universal Track Mode (UTM) deactivated. What I have seen is that when UTM is enabled on my sessions, the Aux channels switch from stereo to mono with the fader rotated all the way to the left.
That's what I saw when opening my session under the re-installed Logic, which defaulted to UTM enabled. So, I disabled UTM. But now, when creating new Aux strips, I get mono channels even when requesting stereo channels.
Also - typically, when I enable a bus send on an audio channel, the corresponding bus channel would appear in my Mixer. Now, that's not happening.
Thanks for your feedback thus far, Erik. - j

Create New Auxilliary Channel Strip in Logic X ? Taken Away ?

Using create new channel strip setting seems to have been removed or is it a bug ? I took the plunge only to find that a lot has changed in the new DAW. I am particularly distressed that one of the best features on Logic 9 has been removed or just DOES NOT WORK. When this feater used to allow me to create multiple AUX channels with the same BUS or have them ascend or descend. This does not seem to be the case anymore. Is anyone out there having the same issue ? In X it just spits out a channel which it should not do . It should allow you to say how many channels and where you want them routed. This seems like a backwards more for Logic. Very dissapointed.

How to import downloaded channel strip settings

hey guys just downloaded some new dubstep channel strip settings for the ES2 synth but cant find a way to import them in logic express 9. Thanks!!

Hi
Settings files for Channel Strips and Plugin settings can be stored in 2 basic places
<Startup Disc>: Library:Application Support:Logic
or
<User Home Folder>:Library:Application Support:Logic
The <User> items will only be available to that particular User Acount, the Main Library is available to all (this is where the Factory files are stored).
Within these directories, there are folders for Channel Strip Settings (with a different sub-directory for the different type of channel; you need to go for the Software Instrument folder), and also for Plugin Settings.
To keep your items separate from the Factory's, I'd suggest that you put your files in the User Folder.

Possible to create a new MainStage empty channel strip? (sans Rhodes!)

Is there any way to create a blank new software inst channel strip; i.e. without the EVP88+fx default setting? As it stands I have to use the "Reset Channel Strip" command everytime... totally annoying, especially since creating new channels and resetting them doesn't happen instantaneously.
mitchell sigman

I just tried it and it works fine.
Do this:
- Choose 'Reset Channel Strip' in the Settings popup at the top of a channel strip
- Choose 'Save Channel Strip Setting...' from the same menu and give it a name, like Empty
- In the Channel Strip Settings browser select the strip you just saved
- Use the Set as Default Channel Strip command
I followed these steps and I get an empty strip when I add a new SI strip or create a new patch with an SI strip. I'm assuming that you're resetting the strip to clear the plug-ins then immediately using the Set as Default command. This won't work since you haven't selected it in the settings browser first.

Creating Folders in the Library for Channel Strip Settings?

When I 'Save Channel Strip Setting As', the new setting appears in my Library of Channel Strip Settings, but I want to create a folder of 'Custom Settings' so I don't get bogged down with a bunch of free-floating settings in my Library. How can I do this? Thanks!

Just figured it out. But in case you're reading this and having the same problem here is what I did...
In finder I went to the following location :
User/Library/Application Support/Logic/ChannelStripSettings/Instrument
in the 'Instrument' folder I created a new folder and titled it Custom Settings, then moved my settings to that folder. Now in my Logic Channel Strip Setting Library looks much cleaner!

Problem in creating new communication channel template in IR

Then the following error occurs:
STOP: Internal error: Object cannot be changed in display mode

So can anybody help me. Thanks for your help.
Best regards.

Menu options won't display in channel strips or plug-ins

Hi peeps, this is what I see whenever I click on, for example, the menu button on Sylenth 2.21 (first pic) or, second example, the Bus button on a channel strip (second pic). No options display - and I have no idea why not. I cannot load a new bank in Sylenth, or many other of my plugins (including Logic's own components) and I cannot assign channels to particular busses. It's a very sad state of affairs.

I'm using LP 9.1.8 on my (slowly tiring) 2007 iMac. Can any one help me sort this please? I'm sure it's a very simple problem, I just can't think of a simple solution.

It seems it is only getting worse: there are no pictures.

Finding new channel strips

I am creating channel strips using my own sounds on EXS24. However the channel strip finder cant find them....it only shows channel strips already created by Apple, or whoever. Is there a way to find channel strips you have created yourself?

Create the following folder inside your home folder (the first 2 should already exist)
~/Library/Application Support/Logic/Channel Strip Settings
Then create these:
Bus
Instrument
Master
Output
Track
All channel strips inside "Instrument" are for all software instruments (like the EXS24), "Track" is the folder for audio channels.
Simply store your channel strips in these folders and they will be available in the browser.

Can Photoshop Element 12 create new alpha channels?

Can Photoshop Element 12 create new alpha channels? I wanted to create one to help with blurring the background and I saw the step by step on line, but I can't find where the channel panel is? I have a PC

There is no channel panel in Elements. You could add some paths and channel features with third party add-ons like Elements+, but the real solution is to use a tutorial for Elements, not for Photoshop. There are always several ways to achieve something in Elements or Photoshop. Using alpha channels is only one way to help with blurring the background.

Create new portlet channels dynamiclly

I'm looking into how to create new portlet channels when a new tab is created so that the portlets can be customized on each tab. Currently when a portlet is modified from one tab the portlet gets modified on all tabs. Can somebody point me to an example on how
this might be accomplished?

Solo Button in Channel Strip with Red Line

Solo Button in Channel Strip with Red Line through it and it won't solo?
How'd it happen and how do you get rid of it?
Thanks!

Try This----From the Manual
Logic Pro, Express: Solo Safe mode may not remain disabled for a particular channel strip
Symptoms
In certain projects, "Solo Safe" mode for a channel strip may enable each time you load the project, even after you disable it and save the project.
Resolution
When a channel strip in Logic is "Solo Safe", it remains audible, even when other channel strips are soloed. Solo Safe is indicated by a diagonal red line through the solo button on a channel strip.
You can manually toggle the solo safe status of a channel strip by Control-clicking its solo button. There are times when you may find that a particular audio channel strip in a project reverts to solo safe mode when you load the project, even after you manually disable solo safe. Here is why that may happen and steps you can take to prevent it from occurring.
A Logic project contains a special audio channel strip used for pre-listening to audio in the Sample Edit window, Audio Bin, and Loop Browser. When you create a Logic project from one of the factory templates, this channel strip is assigned to "Audio 256". This channel strip stays in solo safe mode so that you can always preview audio. The image below shows the channel strip for a new, empty project.
If there is no audio channel strip in a project assigned to "Audio 256", Logic will use the highest-numbered available audio channel for pre-listening. When the project is loaded, that channel strip will be put into solo safe mode. You may find this happens in older projects that you open in Logic 8, or in cases where you have deleted the "Audio 256" channel strip in a Logic 8 project. To prevent this from affecting channel strips you are using in a project's arrangement, follow these steps:
Choose Window > Environment.
From the Environment window menu, choose New > Channel Strip > Auxiliary. A channel strip will appear in the environment.
Select the channel strip. It will highlight.
In the Device parameter box in the upper left of the Environment window, click the arrows to the right of "Channel" and choose Audio > Audio 256 from the menu.
Select the text tool, click on the name below the channel strip and name it "Prelisten".

Duplicate Output channel strips

I see a thread about duplicate aux channels appearing. I'm not seeing that on my end, but what I am getting is multiple (and it's more than two now) Output channel strips. Thankfully, they only appear at the concert level, and don't appear more than once in each patch or set. But the behavior is really bizzare, and a little worrisome because i've found that if I try to delete one of them, if I can successfully do it, then the file will become corrupted and will never reopen! When I'm at the concert level, if I adjust any of the controls on one of them, it's adjusted for all of them... very strange indeed.
I've created multiple Concert files, and I see this behavior exhibited in all of them. The more patches I add, the more the number seems to grow. I believe that every time I copy/paste a patch, it adds one, but I'm not sure exactly what the exact criteria are to make this happen. Is anyone else seeing this?
Also, I have two unrelated questions:
1) There isn't, by any chance, a way of creating alias or shortcut patches, is there? Some way of creating duplicates so I can create multiple sets with some of the same patches (I'd like to create some "Show Setlist" sets, and a main "All Tracks" set, but have some of the same patches in each, that would get modified when I modify any instance).
2) I'm coming from Jambalaya, a similar, and simpler live host that I would continue to be using today if the developer continued supporting it. One thing that was really nice about that was it had a virtual rack where you could store common instruments and effects. It would be accessible to all "songs" (patches), and would save a major amount of load time. Since every one of my patches contains from 2 - 8 instrument channels, it was really helpful. I don't suppose there is any way to reproduce this functionality in MS? I also use this feature in Digital Performer, but I don't use that as a live host. So far, I've noticed that if you add a channel strip at the concert level, it plays back on all patches without any routing or way of arming it or not, so that won't work for me. I guess this is more a feature request than a question, but I'm new enough to MS that maybe someone has found a way.

I haven't experienced any of the channel strip issues, at the concert level or at patch level. It's easy to copy patches or make aliases. To copy a patch, select a patch, go to edit>copy or command>C. To paste, edit>paste or paste as alias(command>V or option-command>V).

Changing channel strip settings

When I create a new track, and at the top of the channel strip select "setting" to select a Mainstage Guitar Rig or Electric Effect, for example, everything works great. But when I go back to change the the same setting to another effect or rig, the program won't let me change it. What am I doing wrong?

Just to re-ask this same question as its not received any responses....
I'm fairly new to Logic, having been using it (and enjoying the learning curve) for about 4 months. Until today, I've been able to select a new channel strip setting by clicking on the 'Settings' button at the top and change this at will. However, I'm suddenly finding once I've selected a setting, I can no longer re-select another via this method - I just get no response when clicking on the button. However, I am still able to access various settings via the library.
I'm assuming I've inadvertently changed something, but cannot work out what.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
John
