Pitch bend, modulation and velocity sensitivity midi data?

Well, this is post number one, so I hope the answer is not too obvious. I loaded Logic pro into my computer about 6 hours ago (fun, fun, fun!) and about an hour ago I noticed that Logic is not responding to pitch bend, modulation or velocity data.
I am using a JV 1000 as a controller and all of these things work fine when I am using Garage Band or Reason 3.0. I can see the pitch bend data changing the transport window when I manipulate the bender on my keyboard. Also, the Audio Midi setup in the utilities folder shows that my JV 1000 is recognized as the controller.
I have looked through the manuals and searched through the various menus and tabs in Reason, to no avail.
Thanks for your help in advance, Graham

Hi gtrip. I will start with the easy question first.
"Mac OS X: The missing Manual" is my choice of self help book for poor sods like me who have been using a PC for the last 15 years, and really have slim to no idea what they are doing on a Mac. I have found it very helpfull in getting aqauinted with the Mac OS, it is written in plain english but is technical enough to be useful.
I am barely familiar with version 7.1 so I don't really know if this is a known problem in 7.0.1.
You might try:
-all of the things that Stash recomends a few posting up.
and/or if you have not already done this:
-create a new user, log in as the new user, open logic up for the first time as a new user, which will run you through the set up menus, which will create a new preference file for the new user. Now, if you no longer have the same problem, when opening logic as the new user, it will almost surely be caused by a bad preference file when you are logged in as the other user. Or, you are systematically entering an incorrect choice for one of the options that you are given.
In my case, despite the fact that I imput my Roland JV 1000 as the controller, the preference file was not set up correctly or while setting up the preference file I must have entered an incorrect choice for one of the options.
If anyone wants to correct or add anything to what I have said, feel free and jump in.
I hope this is helpful, let us know.

  • Auto Pitch Bend & Modulation on M-Audio Key Station PLS HELP !!

    During recording process, even without a key is pressed from Key Station (41), the Pitch Bend & Modulation is triggered on and off randomly in a minor scale on the track, leaving a blank recorded region with minor vertical bars of Pitch Bend & Modulation.
    This happens as well when notes are played giving very interrupted music from Key Board.
    Is my Key Station gone? Do i need to reinstall the M-Audio Driver?
    If so can anyone show how do i uninstall the M-Audio Driver before i proceed?
    Regards
    Kajendra

    Hi, on my iMac the M-Audio Keystation 49e works great.
    A test whit GB and al worked well (Just the USB connection)
    Volume, Pichbender, Modulation, Octave up-down, all work fine.
    Ore reset your 49e (see your manual for details) maybe there are some internal settings in the Keystation that mess up your connetction.
    Try a testing using SimpleSynth (http://notahat.com/simplesynth/
    ore Midikeys (http://www.manyetas.com/creed/midikeys).

  • Midi data doesn't appear in region after recording on a track

    I'm using an Alesis SR-16 to trigger Logic drum samples.  All seems well as I record on a software track, as I hear the part I'm playing and actually see midi data being transcribed onto the region in the track.  However, after hitting stop, there's no data visible at all in the region.  It's just a blank box.  If I hit play, I hear the track fine, and if I open the piano roll, the data is all there.  This is not a problem with the CAPS keyboard.  Any thoughts?  Can't figure out why it all works fine except for this strange glitch.  I'm on Snow Leopard, ps.

    The Popper wrote:
    This seemed logical, so I experimented with all sorts of zoom settings.  I can't see the midi data.  And - why would the CAPS keyboard work just fine with a similar part and software intstrument?
    At the bottom lower right of the arrange page are the two zoom sliders... move the horizontal one to the right and the vertical one down until the SR-16 track fills the screen..... nothing?
    I have/had (haven't looked lately) an SR16 and ages ago recorded every pattern into Logic. I just remember the notes being very short. That's the only thing I think it could be. As I recall you can open the Piano Roll use Apple/A to select all notes... add length to the notes and then they can be seen in the arrange.
    Caps Lock key recording is different than a MIDI input recording from third party hardware... apples and oranges.

  • Unable to record pitch bend MIDI information

    I have a Logic problem that nobody seems to be able to figure out. When I use pitch bend on my MIDI controller I see that Logic gets the message because it shows up on the transport. However, all of my virtual instruments do not react to the pitch bend, and I am not able to record any pitch bend information. If anybody out there thinks they can help please feel free to let me know whats going on here. Thanks

    It could be several things... if you want to use my forums on http://logicprohelp.com you can post your question and upload your .lso session file within the thread, and I will look at it.

  • Creating remote objects and passing the retrieved data to modules

    I found at this Adobe tutorial a nice "RemoteService" class that  creates a RemoteObject and contains the functions for handling the  result and fault events. If I wanted to use this approach, how could I  pass the data from the result handler to interfaces that modules from  the main application could use?
    I could put the RemoteService/RemoteObject in the modules, but (in my  opinion- and I could be wrong) the best design seems to be using the  remote calls in the main app and passing the data along to the modules.
    Ultimately, I would like to know what the "best practices" are for creating remote objects and passing the retrieved data to modules
    Thanks!

    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {

  • Midi data and Automation

    Hello
    I would like to know if it is possible to save MIDI data with Automation commands? Also I would like to be able to draw automation without this happening. Lets say I want to automate a filter on ES2. The filter line is at 100. I want to go from 100 to 300 without  the 100 moving to 150 then having a hard time trying to get it back to 100. I would like to be able to click to start drawing and it stays at 100. If I have explained it so you understand can someone help me please.

    I'd like to bring in midi files with information on any CC# I wanted, and then map that to any parameter of any plug-in I wanted. I couldn't figure out how to do this with the automation conversion process though.
    First you cross too many questions, that's why I will try to answer one by one when have time cause they need some graphics etc.
    As a beginnings have a look at this forum [LINK|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10612612&#10612612], where I show several scenarios how to manage CC7 and CC10 in the environment. It is real time processing. You can do some post processing using the Transform Window as well. Hope to have time to show you some Transform Mappers.
    In addition it is possible to Map any CC# to any Plugin parameter in the Environment using transformer Mapper object ( realtime ), or using the Transform Window as well. ( If I have time later this evening will make same examples...
    So I use my midi hardware controller to set a parameter to be controlled by CC#1. This works fine, and I can control the parameter with my midi controller. When I press play however, hoping that the CC#1 data in the midi file I imported will control this parameter, it doesn't seem to do it.
    This is possible as well but using some Environment tricks with IAC port, a dummy "Learn" fader and probably condition transformer ( I have show many times such schemes but do not have time to search right now - hope to have time to make new one according your scenario ).
    Will come back soon with more info and schemes...

  • Why is my midi data not showing up on Logic Pro X?

    So i've been working on this project for a while now and for some reason out of no where the midi data is not showing up. every time i click on a region, it doesn't open up the midi data for that track, but instead only opens up the data for a different track. No matter what region i try to open, it always goes to that one specific region, and if i try to click in notes it only puts them in on that region. furthermoer, the MIDI draw refuses to work. it will not let me pitch bend, change note velocities, or anything. Am i missing something obvious or what?? please help, this is one of my favorite projects so far and I don't want to trash it because i can't do anything with it.

    Just happened to me. Then realized that I had clicked the "link" button off in the Piano Roll Editor and clicking it back on fixed it.

  • Pitch bend not working

    hi I have an evolution mk461c usb midi controller.
    when I play any software synth in logic 8 I can use the mod wheel (c23) and it works but the pitch bend (c22) doesnt. I can see midi data coming in on channel 22 but ut has no effect. any ideas?
    best tommy banana

    your question solved it for me thanks, Hangtime.
    the keyboard instruments won't accept the pitchbend information, but the horns, and I suppose other 'bendable' instruments will.
    So thanks again.

  • Editing pitch bend wheel's range

    I can't figure out for the life of me how to modify the range of the pitch bend wheel on an Edirol (Roland) PCR-30 MIDI keyboard. It's set at at a range of 2 semi-tones and I would like to change it to an octave or even two. The only instruction I can find in the manual refers to a complicated 27-step routine using buttons that don't exist on the PCR-30 (such as SysEx and numeric keys).
    Granted this is a basic MIDI rig, but the pitch bend ought to be user-definable. Any PCR-30 vets know the secret?

    The pitch bend is set in GarageBand, and is normally limited to 2 semitones. There is a way to increase this, but note that it does not work on GB instruments, only on Soundfonts and QuickTime Instruments.
    I can't advise about your particular keyboard: most keyboards have some way of sending CC messages: for example my Evolution has a button marked 'Wheel Assign', and the M-Audio Keystations can use note keys in shifted mode as number keys. You need to see if you can find an equivalent. You then need to send CC128.
    Now if you hold down a note and move the pitch bend to its maximum, if you then move the modulation wheel you will hear the pitch of the bent note change and you can set it to anything you want.
    When you move to another track you may still get the same increased pitch and you may have to reset it if that's not what you want.
    GarageBand will remember this instruction for that track during the session, but once you quit it will revert to 2 semitones and you will have to go through the process again - it will then work on the existing notes as before.
    It's a bit of a kludge because GB was never designed to allow for this in the first pace.

  • EXS24 weird pitch bend behavior

    Hello everyone,
    I'm having a strange pitch bend behavior in exs24 samples and was wondering if it's intentional.
    I noticed that it has to do with the channel number it is being sent on.
    Let's say I load the Fingerstyle Bass instrument and send data to it on midi channel 1 - this way everything is fine. At the maximum bend of 127 (8192), the note gets pitched 1 tone (or whatever setting you have for the maximum pitch bend)
    Once I send the data on midi channel 2 though, the pitch bend goes crazy, it bends a few octaves.
    Since I use standard midi files, all bass track are sent on channel 2 and if I want the pitch bend to function correctly, I would always have to change that to channel 1, which is a bit annoying. So is there a setting which I can change in order to avoid all this?
    Thank you for your  help!

    I think, you used a patch with a EXS24 in multi-mono mode. In this mode, the EXS processes pitch bend on all MIDI channels seperately, which is great, if you use a guitar to MIDI converter. So, this behavior is intended.
    Best,
