Reason - multiple stereo rewire to logic song templates anyone?

Hi,
I'm a recent convert to (intel) iMac/Logic Pro/Reason from PC/Cubase/Reason.
After a whole weekend of head scratching, manual reading & forum browsing I've finally managed to set up a working environment with reason 3.05 rewired to logic - I have setup the main stereo L&R & Multiple mono channels from reason as well as a number of internal rewire objects to act as instruments.
I've read that its possible to go further & actually create rewired 'stereo' channels, which only need 1 effect added per pair. As far as i can understand this is done by creating two mono channels, panned hard L&R then linking to aux object/buss object then only making the aux (or buss?)object available in the arrange/track mixer page?
Only thing is.. i can't get these stereo channels to work - As i mentioned, I'm new to MAC & logic (although have studied manual in depth) so it may be a rudimentary error in my environment set up or my understanding of aux/buss object behaviour, but i need to get working with reason asap so wondered if anyone has done this already & could either post a simple walkthrough or maybe email a song template so i could copy & paste the stereo rewire layer?
I've already found a page online for some one (http://www.stormchild.net/music/reasonwithlogic.html ) who had done this but with Logic 6 but doesn't seem to work with my intelmac & logic 7.2.1 (& in fact when i loaded his autoload it 'removed' my focusrite saffire from available interfaces & i had to unplug it & restart the mac to get it back)
Any help would be much appreciated

Hi,
Apostol, I do a ton of midi programming & although I'm a massive reason fan the sequencer doesnt do it for me - I've used reason for sounds & beats very happily rewired to cubases sequencer (on PC) for years now.
Got Guitar, I'm impressed (if a little scared!) at your local knowledge of my little hometown, & thanks for the book recomendation & offer of your templates. The rewire templates in logic (on 7.2.1 at least) don't deliver the goods for reason, at least with my intel iMac.
I've since sucessfully set up an environment with a number of mono chammels (& L&R rewire on masterL&R) which works well in that it shows the reason device name in the channel menu on arrange page but it's just creating these 'stereo' tracks that i'm stuck on.
I think I have made some progress late last night as follows.... Obviously reason (with the exception of hardwire interface 1&2 (L&R)outputs isn't designed to output in stereo but so far I've created a number of 'stereo tracks' (2 x audio objects panned L&R), assigned their channels to reason hardware interface outputs 33-34, 35-36 etc etc, & I've then connected each of these 'panned pairs' in the environment to a stereo aux object by assigning the in/out on their audio objects to a buss number then assigning this buss to the relevant aux (so i only have to use one effect/fader per pair).
This setup works great in that i just need, in reason, to assign an instruments output directly to the suitable hardware interface outputs (ie 33-34) & it plays through this new stereo pair.
All i need to do now is to 'clean up' this set up so i can only see these single stereo aux's in my & track mixer (& arrange page if possible?) so there aren't 3 x tracks showing as playing per instrument? - I feel like i'm nearly there, anyone able to help with this last chapter in the saga????

Reason 4 levels quiet in logic???

I am using Reason 4 and logic together. When using a redrum, subtractor, etc... from Reason I can never get any volume out of them when rewired to Logic.
For example: I tried a couple kick samples playing a pattern in redrum and in the logic mixer it they are only peaking at -15 to -20 dBs and that is with the sample level turned up to 127 on the redrum, any have this problem or know a fix??
When I play a logic instrument or load up a loop they show up on the mixer peaking anywhere from -5dbs to 0dbs depending on the instrument/loop etc... So i don't know why reason does not do the same...I rewire reason to logic by creating a aux strip in the mixing board and set the input on the strip to reason.
Any help is very much apprecaited
thanks

Are you also using the mixer in Reason? Check levels there, too. And then learn how to do it without the Reason mixer. Props have an easy to follow walkthrough on their site http://www.propellerheads.se/substance/rewirehelp/index.cfm?fuseaction=getarticle&article=logic80 it shows first with the mixer and then without. And like Erik said, make sure the levels on the Redrum are all ginger peachy, too. Use prefader metering to confirm levels are good.
Reason sounds better rewired into Logic than it does by itself, without any enhancements or EQ.

Song Templates & User Account Sercutiy

I bought a Mac Pro for my Church with Logic 7.2, running OS X 4.7 I set up a template for Church services under my account and then setup other accounts for the other users. When I login as the other users and open Logic, it acts as if it is being used for the 1st time, and the template that I saved is not accessible unless I log back in as myself. How can I share this "song template" among all the users who has accounts on this system.
Thanks

Your template is in your user library, which is:
~/Library/Application Support/Logic/Song Templates - where "~" is your user directory
Just copy it to the global library
(Your Hard Drive name)/Library/Application Support/Logic/Song Templates

Reason Rewire with Logic Pro 7.2!

Hey guys,
I had no problem rewiring Reason in 7.1 on my PowerPC Mac Mini, but on my Intel Macs, with 7.2, Rewire is not an option in the Channel List on an Audio Object or Aux. I notice there is still rewire layers in the Env, but I'm confused about the one slave, two slave thing, (A and B). Am I doing something wrong? Or do I need to update Reason from 2.5 to 3.0? Help! Please!

For Rewire to correctly work on Intel Macs, Both apps need to be running under Rosetta. Since Logic is a Universial Binary, there isn't a way to run Reason as a rewire slave from Logic.
You'll have to wait till a Universial Binary of Reason is released.
more info http://www.propellerheads.se/
"Early testing using the Apple Developer Transition Kit shows that:
-Reason will continue to run in Rosetta, but the performance loss is similar to running Reason on a G3.
-ReCycle runs fine in Rosetta, with no measurable performance issues.
-ReWire works, as long as all applications in the session are PowerPC-based."

In eText template, how to put multiple transaction in one logic record

Canada Bank often use CPA Standard 005, a.k.a. CPA 1464 specification. it comes with a Header and a Trailer record, but the detail record main contains upto 6 transactions in one logic record, that is, it has 7 segments,
segments 0 contains 3 common fields followed by segment 1~6, each contains one payament.
The total records lenght is 1464. Question is how to create a custom level to have 6 transactions in one logic record.
Anyone has done so, please give me some tips. If you have a sample template available, please forward me a copy, it is for supplier payment...
Thank you in advance,

Why does itunes have me logging in multiple times to buy a song? I can access everything else fine, but now my account is disabled for some reason although my password was entered correctly... help

I've seen a couple of other threads over the last 10 minutes posting similar problems, so it appears to have affected other people as well - the poster on the first thread has now posted again saying that it's now working for him, so you could give it another try.

Importing Stereo files in Logic

I am trying to import stereo interleaved audio files into Logic Pro 9. When I do, the stereo files import as mono files and won't play. Is there any way around this, or is Logic only designed for mono files? This does not seem logical, although maybe it's because I have not yet been initiated into the cult.
There is also an interesting thing in that for some reason in my version of Logic, when you mute a track from the mixer, it does not light the M button in the Arrange window, and vice versa. Is this the way it was designed or have I accidentally hit a wrong and destroyed my ability to ever mix in Logic again....

Stereo files import as stereo files for more than 99.99 % of Logic users, so... make sure you have Universal Track Mode enabled in the coreaudio preferences.
Also in the preferences there is a setting to make the mute (and solo) buttons in the Mixer and Arrange independent of eachother or to link them to eachother.
Logic Pro>Preferences>Audio>General
set Track Mute/Solo to Fast (Remote Channel Strips) (=linked).
The names of both those settings could be more obvious though (like Linked vs Independent or something like that).
O, and it is not a cult, not even remotely. Logic is being used by all religions, and also by atheïsts.
I adore Logic, but I would never worship it.

Logic X templates missing

Hey all,
Bit of a problem here. When I start up my Logic and want to choose a template, I only seem to have access to a limited amount of templates, which are Hip Hop, Electronic, Songwriter and Multi-Track.
I'd very much like to have access to the "Produce" section of templates which include temps such as Music for Picture, Stereo Mastering, Surround Mastering etc.
I checked my system files, and all the templates are definitely there.
I used to have access to all the templates but I no longer do. I've provided a picture of what I see on my screen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would *guess* that reinstalling Logic would not erase the additional content. But that's just a guess. This link might help with that question: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22819179#22819179
Seems like some of your templates are somehow corrupted. It sounds like they are in your filesystem (I don't have it in front of me, but /Library/Application Support/Logic/Project Templates/ or something like that), but then they don't show up in Logic, and don't open correctly when opening from the filesystem.
How about this: Create a new user on your Mac. Open Logic there. Same problem? If not, try deleting some caches in your original user account (~/Library/Caches/com.apple.logic.x/ or something like that, and com.apple.audiounits.cache).
If the problem exists even on a new user ... this is a lame answer, but it might be just lame enough to work. It couldn't hurt to trash your preferences, repair disk permissions, and restart.

Multiple Output Ports In Logic Audio.

Multiple Output Ports In Logic Audio.
Many people have had problems with Multiple Output Ports with Logic Audio I have come up with a solution that allows me to program 8 synths using 8 ports. Have a look at my site if you have problems with your Output Ports

I have come up with another way to look at the problem, and I have come up with an alternative solution to the problem. In the process I have learned something, but thank you for showing me the correct method.
For sure, your efforts have lead to a greater understanding of how the Environment works, and yes, your method would work, but it's really long-winded :-)
Another way to set this whole shebang up is to use Audio MIDI Setup to configure the 'Virtual" external synths, MIDI Ports, Receive Channels etc.
When you make an External MIDI track in Logic via the Library, Logic will automatically create the Multi-Instrument objects, preconfigured with the correct channels enabled.
The downside of this method comes with regard to Patch Names within the Multi-Instruments. You would need to set these up every time (or save as a template).
Note: do not use the "Manual" Multi's at the same time as the Audio MIDI Setup method.... you end up with 2 of everything in the Library (and potentially duplicates in the Environment).

Convert effects from older Logic songs

Hello,
I've got a problem with my Logic songs created in Logic 4.8.
If I open one of these songs all of the audio effects in the mixer
are crossed out – also if similiar or equals are integrated but just
have another name (for example: "SDly" in 4.8 is now in Express 7
"Stereo Delay" with nearly the same interface).
Have I got any chance, to convert these effects or read out the
settings so that I can use them in the same way as before?
Thank you for your help and excuse my maybe bad english...

Thanks for all responses.. Don't think mine is a space problem, alot of these tracks have hardly any instruments on to open. I am using Logic Pro 6 if that makes a difference?

How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing?

How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing. The program seems to be picking up the same songs from, for example, my user area and my public area in the C drive

As above, Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library, however it is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve/merge ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

How to record stereo output in Logic Pro X

I am trying to record the stereo output in Logic Pro X on the spare stereo track. In other words what I would like to do is to record audio/software instruments tracks existing in my project as well as my real time performance on top of that (let's say a software synth played using a midi controller) to a new stereo track, just like if I were recording Logic's stereo out to an external recorder except in this case you are recording that to a spare tracks within Logic X.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Send everything to Bus X - Bus X to StereoMstr (for monitoring)
Create new Track/Channel
- for Input choose Bus X
- for Output choose No Output
Engage Record on the newly created track and off you go.
Have a nice day!

Show or view multiple album art for one song on iPhone 4?

Is it possible to show or view multiple album artwork for one song on an iPhone 4, especially on the now playing screen? I figured since iTunes has this feature then the iPhone should too. Can I download an app that does this? I've searched but couldn't find any, maybe I'm using other keywords. Could anyone point me in the right direction with this?

Darn. I hope an app is designed to be able to do this soon. From what I've seen this feature isn't really in demand so it could take a while. Thanks for replying.

Logic song quitting unexpectedly

Hi, I've worked on a song for days with no problem. Now suddenly tonight, Logic quits unexpectedly every time I open this song or its backup.
(Logic starts up, the EXS samples load, the arrange window appears with the "reading project manager" message, & it quits before I can play or do anything.)
Other Logic songs open fine.
This song has several EXS24 and Quicktime instruments; it's just midi sequences, no audio tracks.
I've repaired permissions, and reset Logic preferences except key commands.
What else should I try?
thanks.
1.33 GHz G4 Powerbook Mac OS X (10.3.9) 768 MB RAM, Logic Pro 7.1.1

It opens when I hold down the CTRL key, but since it didn't boot up Core Audio, I have no sound and the next time I open Logic Pro, it has the same prolem and didn't launch.
One thing that could be worth to mention: After a few times I retried to launch it, it pops up an error that my Kontakt serial number is not correct that I need to register Kontakt using Kontakt Registration Tool. I already registered it before and now when I tried to open registration tool, it also tells me that I already completed my authorization. Also in the report it seems that Kontakt got listed in the list for quite long. Any suggestions PLEASE!!!!!

Reason - multiple stereo rewire to logic song templates anyone?
