Question about Garageband Vocal Jam Pack Compatiability with Logic Pro 8

I recently purchased Logic Pro 8 and I was wondering if there is any way to I can use my Garageband 09 Jam Pack: Voices in Logic. When I select the loops tab and select show all only "Garageband and Jam Pack Remix Tools shows up, not my jam Pack Vocals.
Thanks for helping me out.

First, thanks for helping me out with my situation, its much appreciated.
Now, I checked the support page that you told me about, however, that didn't fix my problem. There is nothing grayed out. I tried to re-install my Garageband Voices and it still didn't fix the problem.
On Logic when I select the "Loops" tap and select the View drop down box, the only options listed is Garageband and Jam Pack remix Tools. Jam pack Voices still isn't showing up.
On the other hand when I open Garageband and click the "loops" drop down menu; the following is listed, Garageband, jam Pack Remix Tools and jam pack Voices.
I have no clue whats going on. By the way I have Garageband 09 and Logic Pro 8

Help getting a vocal track to sync with Logic PRO

I am trying to do a remix to a song which I have the acapella vocal track to. Can someone please let me know how to get the BPM of the vocal track then get the sequence in Logic Pro to sync up with the vocal so I can remix. Please help.

Unless it is a totally robotic performance, you can't magically extract the tempo value of a vocal performance.
If you want to be a remixer, your first skill to develop is to find the right tempo, by estimation (for the ballpark) and experimentation (for the exact value). Use an empty Arrangement (or soloed vocals) with but a click going on.
Once you get close, you may find that you have to shift the vocals back or forth a bit as it's highly unlikely that it begins at an exact downbeat.

I have a new mac book pro. Will my old jam packs work with the new garageband?

I have a new mac book pro. Will my old jam packs work with the new garageband?

I have same problem, been using a macbook 13" for nearly 9 years but it was failing so I bought a macbook pro 15" and after having problems and error messages when trying to download loops ( I finally went to the App Store and opened garageband from there which install some loops), it finally downloaded some but not all the loops that my jam packs had, also I have tons of non-apple loops that I purchased over the years but I want to know if they will work on my new mac ?

Question about garageband: I have 3 short original songs that i wanted to merge ala "Bohemian Rhapsody". Is that possible in garageband? their tempos are all different from each other. Advance thanks.

Question about garageband: I have 3 short original songs that i wanted to merge ala "Bohemian Rhapsody". Is that possible in garageband? their tempos are all different from each other. Advance thanks.

First of all, GarageBand iOS allows for only one tempo and there is no Merge Song feature.
What you can do.
Switch between the songs and copy-paste the individual Tracks. You can also Merge Tracks if you run into the 8 Track limitation.
Hope that helps

Questions about Novation Remote 25SL integration with Logic Pro 8

Preface: I have to apologize in advance if this seems somewhat confusing. I'm sure some of the terms I'm using are just plain wrong - I'm somewhat of a n00b.
I have a Novation Remote 25SL configured to use AutoMap with Logic Pro 8 from Novation's website and most things are working well. It's confusing at times because sometimes I find it hard to tell what mode the keyboard is in, but that's ok - it's the least of my worries. Based on what I've seen through reading the manuals and my own experimentation, I have a couple of questions:
- Despite what the guy at the store told me, I can't seem to figure out how to select different kits from within the SL. For example, if I have a garageband instrument selected on a track - can I use the data/select knob on the SL as it is now, or do I have to program that somewhere, somehow? Or if I have Ultrabeat on a track, can I use the knob to select the different kits/banks?
- Is there a way to control non-Apple AU plugins like the rest of those which ship with Logic? All the sexy looking ones like Ringshifter, Compressor, Overdrive, etc. It seems odd that Remote will go into Mixer Automap mode and be able to control the certain portions of the instruments, but not the plugins that are automatically loaded into the channel strip when the instrument is loaded.
- I have a 25 key Remote. In Ultrabeat, I find the key maps miss a chunk of notes between where the drum pads end and where the keyboard starts (or vice-verse). Is there a way to get it so each key has a mapping? 25 keys in Ultrabeat, 25 keys on the board plus 8 drum pads - seems like there's lots of room.
Thanks in advance for all your feedback.

Follow-up research:
Apparently there is a driver conflict between the AlphaTrack and the ReMOTE. So far I have got the ReMOTE working - sort of - in Logic using the following method which was published at Novation's Answerbase:
1. disconnect the alphatrack.
2. launch Logic and then turn on the ReMOTE SL.
3. Go into the Environment window, and add a Monitor Object. Connect it to the Remote SL's ports 2 and 3.
So far, this seems to at least get MIDI note input into Logic, but the Automap function seems a bit sketchy so far. This will depend on Novation updating Automap and the SL's firmware for Logic 8.
As noted previously, there doesn't seem to be any AlphaTrack support in Logic 8 yet and it's up to Apple to make it work. They do support their TranzPort product, so with luck there'll be support in the next update.
I'd really love to use BOTH control surfaces with Logic simultaneously -- the AlphaTrack with the Mixer and plugins, the ReMOTE with Software Instruments. I suppose it might take some interesting mapping but this doesn't seem like that strange a setup -- there are plenty of "mixer surfaces" like the M-Audio one, and the Novation Automap stuff is quite popular....

How to get a good vocal sound with Logic Pro 9

I apologize for the ignorance of this question, but I am really looking to figure out a way to get my vocals to sound the way I would like them to sound, but I'm not really sure where to start.
I started out using Garageband years ago, and really like the vocal setting of "Live Performance" when I went to real instrument/vocal. It had a sound that I liked, and I didn't have to go to a lot work to achieve it. When I went to Logic Pro 9 a while back I saw that they had the Garageband setting of Live Performance, but it really didn't sound the same, so I ended up starting songs in Garageband, and then importing them into Logic Pro.
I would really like to move on and be able to set up vocals from scratch, and put in different inserts and play around with different sounds to experiment with for vocals. Does anyone have any advice on learning inserts to use, and perhaps a tutorial video they might suggest that could help educate me on this?
I don't even know if you should start with Compressor, then Chan EQ. Perhaps someone might be able to steer me in the right direction. Thanks so much.

Klunde, you are missing out the most vital parts in your post. A vocal chain for recording is:
You (your voice) - Microphone - Mic Pre - (perhaps hardware compressor, perhaps not) - (perhaps hardware eq, perhaps not) - then finally what you are recording into.
The source is the single biggest influence on what you need to do in the mix regardless of what you are recording into. In our case here, it happens to be Logic. My own vocal chain changes depending on what i am aiming to achieve and this carries through to the mix. On one song I may use a blue face 1176 plugin if required and on another a CL1B etc. Both sound great but both sound different and there are a myriad of ways to use each one. The same goes for EQ's and reverbs. But what you need for all of this is a great source. Get this right and your mixes and decisions will be a lot easier and your desired results faster to achieve.
So what is your source for your vocals?
After this it is all down to taste. For example, a compressor going into an eq sounds different from an eq going into a compressor. Neither one is right or wrong. Experience and experimentation will tell you which you want to use for a particular song. Top mixer Chris Lord-Alge uses lots of compression on everything. Top mixer Bruce Swedien is notorious for using virtually none. Both consistently mix great records and both have spent a life time honing their art and skill set. Experiment but get your recording chain right which means choosing the right kit for your vocal and gain staging everything properly.

Is GarageBand iOS 2.0.1 compatible with Logic Pro 9.1.8?

I run Logic Pro 9.1.8 on a Mac Pro 1,1 (Snow Leopard 10.6.8) and GarageBand 2.0.1/ iOS (7) on the iPad2. The songs are built on the iPad, then opened in Logic on the Mac. This worked like a charm until recently when the iPad was updated w/ the new GB. Used to just click on the ".band" file, exported from the iPad to the Mac via iTunes, and it would open in Logic (the only audio software on the Mac), but now it asks me to save the file instead of opening it. Then when trying to open the newly saved GB version in Logic you either get a blank arrange screen or Logic crashes and says it needs to be updated.
9.1.8 the latest version of Logic Pro 9, so is it asking me to get Logic 10? If so, it would seem that I need a new Mac as mine is 32-bit and Logic 10 is 64-bit.
Does Apple keep the GB and LP versions concurrent? Meaning that the current GarageBand is compatible w/ the current Logic Pro? The least expensive solution might be to go back to the 8 track GB for iOS, but how can I do that? I do not have that purchase on my app store account any more as it was purchased from a different account that I no longer have access to.
I don't ever remember having to first save the file in LP9 and then check a bunch of boxes in the Advanced section when saving it, but this does work to open the old files (8 track version of GB iOS) . So, I tried again w/ the new GB files (16 track version of GB) and Logic crashed again and said the file was "created on a different version of Logic" please update Logic. With no more updates for Logic Pro 9, it wants LP 10? Which I can't do bc of the specs of my computer.
Your thoughts and ideas are welcomed and appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Lee,
Thank you. That is a great work around! Yes, where is 1.x that I paid for? Exactly! That would have helped immensely.
I tried to get Garageband iOS 1.x, but could not. Contacted Apple and they said I could book a service call w/ their technical department for about $30USD! For a $5 app that I already paid for?! Are they serious?! I don't even think (even after the $30) they could have done anything. I know, it was just a poor customer service rep and they are just following protocol. I even thought of trading my iPad to someone who hadn't updated their iOS. Then I should have seen the old GB (compatible w/ the old iOS 1.x) in the app store.
My work around:
- Bought a used 2008 64-bit Mac Pro tower on eBay ($700USD w/ shipping).
- Installed Mavericks and GB (free)
- Paid for Logic X ($200)
My 2007 Mac Pro is for sale on eBay! I won't get all of the $ back, but will get some.
Imported my first GB iOS 2.0.1 into Logic X - it wouldn't open! Yet another download was needed for compatibility. So, I just opened the iOS song in GB on the Mac Tower w/ Mavericks. Saved the file in GB then opened it in Logic X. I did download the 1 billion gigs for compatibility for LPX, but have yet to try it. So long as GB does the job, it only takes a few extra secs.
I now have access to LPX Session drummer, which is pretty cool. Sometimes your original beats can work better for the song, but session drummer can help w/ fills, mixing and "real drummer" feel sometimes. Now I combine my ideas w/ theirs. One can even take the orig iPad created drum track and use it as a loop along w/ Session Drummer (which can be a bit more of a live drummer feel).
I too write on the iPad when on the road then dump to the Mac Pro Tower when I get home. I had tried a MIDI device to dump the data from the iPad to the Mac. Didn't work. Spent hours researching which software to use for MIDI. Time is $ so I shelled out the dough. They got me! Sort of I didn't buy a new Mac. I'm selling a whole bunch of old studio gear, that I don't use anyway, to make up the difference in cost.
Thanks for your input. This is my 2 cents. I could write a book about this experience!

Wha wha pedal work well with GarageBand but don't want to work with logic pro 9.1.8 on my MBPro end 2011

Install on MacBook Pro end of 2011 with logic Pro 9.1.8 and Apogee GIO interface guitar
The wha wha pedal work well with GarageBand but not working with Logic Pro
Only the red light turning on and off at the screnn of the MBPro and on my Apogee GIO (Guitar Interface Midi) switch button but the effect wha wha won't work.
HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND MY ENGLISH

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...
Thread 32:
0   libSystem.B.dylib
0x94c29afa mach_msg_trap + 10

That might be nothing... but as i said, I haven't seen that one before and given what else is going on.. it might be involved too... or nothing to do with that at all!

Using Platinum Voicemaster Pro Vocal Channel Strip with Logic Pro & MBox 3

Hiya,
I was wondering if you can help me please.
I have a small little home studio that I am currently building (just to record vocals mainly to instrumentals as I am singer/songwriter).
I am currently using Logic Pro 9 and MBOX Mini 3 as my midi interface but my producer who is based overseas told me to get a preamp. Many musicians have suggested I purchase Platinum Voicemaster Pro Vocal Channel Strip. CAN ANY CONFIRM WHETHER THIS WILL WORK WITH LOGIC PRO 9 AND GIVE ANY ADVICE AS TO HOW IS THE BEST WAY TO USE IT WITH LOGIC PRO 9 AND MY MBOX MINI 3?
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP.

Thank you both for your input. I am back on the case again, this time with a fully functioning FCB1010. Right ou of the box the pedal does successfully send volume and pan with expression pedal a and b respectively.
What I would next like to accomplish is to have exp. ped. b now control a plug-in parameter instead, the pedal range on the fuzz-wah plug-in of Logic Pro 7 for expample.
When I use Automation Quick Access to edit the assignment of ped. b as Bryan suggested, Logic appears to be receiving the info from ped. b and creating the new assignment (as indicated in the Controller Assignments window), and yet the actual functionality doesn't change, that is, ped. b continues to control pan.
Any suggestions?
Best regards, Dan

Mainstage still packaged with Logic Pro?

So I wanted to get the jam packs to use in garageband but it turns out they're all in Mainstage 2 now. I am planning on upgrading to logic in a year or so and I thought mainstage came packaged with it. Do you have to purchase them separately now? Logic express used to be $199 and Logic Pro was $499. What happened to that? Are all the plugins and third party effects gone now? What is going on?

Mainstage is no longer packaged with Logic Pro.
It can be downloaded separately (with all of its JamPacky goodness) for $29.99.
Logic Express was cancelled as Logic Pro now costs what Logic Express used to cost: $199.
