Recording audio into  logic from a rewire application

Im using logic 8, but im about to have 9.Is there a way to record audio in from a rewire application, in my case Reason 4.Im able to run sound through it,and out of the main mix. But cant figure out how to record onto a track for later use and manipulation.Any help would be great. Thanks

In your mixer: options> new Aux. channel strip, set input to Reason channel (#,#). In Reason don't use the 14:2 mixer, but hook everything up to the hardware interface. If you do go through the 14:2 everything in Reason will be on one track in Logic (Mix L/R in the Reason input menu).
Then in Logic, either change the ouput of that channel, or set up a send, to a bus (say 1).
Then create an Audio track in the arrange window, and set the input to bus 1.
That gives you a track with the Reason part recorded as an audio file.

  • Recording audio into logic?

    hello,how can you record audio straight into logic express 7,i have an audio interface,just dont know how to control logic to do this.i know how to record it onto my hard drive,but just thought you might be able to record it into logic ,like you would recording midi, into a track etc..thats if you can do it at all ?
    hope this makes sense.
    thanx

    When you record the track segment you are creating is saved on your hard drive. It is not data that is saved as part the song file itself. It is more like a link. Each segment is separate so you are going to create a new one each time you record a part of your song. Logic wants to place them into a common folder.
    Logic needs to have a path to those files so it can access them for playback. It is best to have them in the song file folder rather than somewhere else on your hard drive. When you follow through with setting the audio path Logic will create the necessary folders for the different types of files it will need to access.
    When you create a new song file it does not have that audio path. So, you either set up the link/path after you create a new song file, or when you try to record your first track segment, Logic will ask you to set that path before recording.
    Hope that helps.

  • Can't record audio into logic

    Hi guys. This is my first post here. I am new to Logic and Macs in general, so bear with me. Lol. I am trying to record bass, guitar, vocals as well as some intrument samples from Logic, but when I click the record enable button, I don't see any audio coming in. This is odd, because I can record in Soundtrack Pro, so there must be a signal getting to the computer from my Presonus Firebox. One other strange thing that is happening is that I can play audio from my two Dynaudio BM5As no problem, but when I play a sample from Ultra Beat, it plays back through the built-in speakers on my Mac. Also, when I go to play a software instrument, it doesn't play, either through the monitors or the computer. Sorry if this is a bit confusing, but I don't know how else to put it. Any thoughts? I assume it is just my own lack of technical knowledge and that the solution will be found in some sort of settings window. Any and all help appreciated.
    -Spencer

    Make sure your Firebox is the selected Driver in Logic's Audio Preferences.

  • Why does the letter P show up when i try to record audio into Logic Pro and no audio is audible ?!

    Can anyone pleaes help as I have occured this problem today and sent hours trying to fix it and not had any luck !?!?
    I always record in audio by press "R" on the channel strip but today for some odd reason the letter "P" shows up and no audio is audiable ?
    Can anyone tell me what's going on ............!?!?
    "When I try to record in some audio and press "R" it chnages to the letter "P" and no audio is coming through ?!?"

    This is because you have Punch on the fly enabled under Options (top menu)>Audio>Punch on the Fly.... signified by the letter P instead of the letter R

  • Im loosing the 'punch' when i record beats into Logic.

    Hi.
    I record beats into Logic from my MPC which could be the 2 track out or 8 separate outs.
    What me and others with the same setup as me are saying is that the beat looses a certain puch and sound to it when we record it into logic. It sounds different playing back in logic than it does on the mpc. The outputs from the mpc go directly into separate channels on my interface and therefore i would think that there would be no difference in sound.
    There is a lack of warmth. I dont know whether any of you could offer me any advice or its just a logic audio conversion thing???? Im not sure
    Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks, Ben

    I and others have also heard this. My opinion is that it's something to do with recording at 24-bit, that makes the sound clearer and wider, but it's not as punchy as a 16-bit recording of the same thing. Unfortunately, this goes against what the entire industry wants us to believe, so I'm not expecting any help with this issue soon since most people will deny it exist.
    Try recording your tracks into a small audio app like Peak or Soundforge that allows you to record at 16-bit. (I'm not sure turning off 24-bit recording in Logic does this)...
    ..then import the 16b tracks into a Logic project (at 44.1 khz), and export to CD....you should notice your "punchy" base is back again.
    Sorry I can't help other than to say I, and others, hear it too, and we're all trying to figure out what to do about it.

  • Latency, Recording incoming Audio into Logic,... I don't understand

    I'm trying to clear up my understanding (or misunderstanding) of latency of incoming audio into Logic.
    As a test, here's what I did.
    Set-Up
    1. In Preferences/Audio/General, I set Plug-In delay Compensation to off.
    2. In Preferences/Audio/Core I set the I/O Buffer Size to 32 (is this necessary?, to go that low?)
    3. In Preferences/Audio/General I turn on the Low Latency Mode On, set Limit to 0ms (Zero Milliseconds)
    4. Created a 1/4 note click track with Klopfgeist.
    5. Just for reference, I converted to audio. Opened in the sample editor and it is indeed, exactly on the beat.
    6. Set up my Roland Fantom as a Midi instrument. Channel 10 to trigger a Side Stick sound.
    7. Create another 1/4 note click track.
    8. Recorded the Rolands Output into my MOTU 2408 interface into Logic.
    9 Opened up the waveform up in the sample editor, zoom in and notice it is obviously late.
    10. Move the Anchor point 6 ticks to line it up,
    Therefore, the incoming audio is off by 6 ticks.
    Is it not possible to get 0 latency? I read the chapter in the manual but I believe this wasn't made clear, i could be wrong.
    I have a guitarist coming over to record on my record in a week, I don't know how to deal with this except to move his entire track
    by 6 ticks. ?

    That is not really the type of latency that's affected by your audio I/O buffer setting. A DAW system has different types of latency, MIDI latency, latency caused by some plugins, AD/DA converter latency..etc. The six tics will probably remain the same or close to it if you're buffer is set to 64, 126, 256...etc.
    Why do you have "Low Latency" mode selected, do you know what it's function is?
    The I/O buffer setting affects two main aspects.
    The response of the system when you play a virtual instrument, and...
    ...real-time monitoring of an audio input track. (this is an audio signal that passes through Logics audio engine and can use live effects)
    The example using the Fantom requires MIDI sent to the keyboard and the audio into the MOTU passes through the AD converter.
    What you want to set is the Record Delay so that your audio records in time, however... it needs to be set using a loopback test.
    Use a 1/4 note recorded audio click (side stick) that you've adjusted to be perfectly on the beat copy it a few times. Use a cable from the MOTU's output to an open channel's input, record the click, compare.. now adjust the "Recording Delay" until the recorded click matches the first click.
    Recording delay is on the Preferences/Audio tab.

  • Recording into logic from my MPC 1000 Redux

    I want to record a four bar drum beat, bass line..etc
    Also, I have some existing beats that i made on my MPC before I got Logic that I would like to transfer over to logic. Any thoughts on how to record into logic from my MPC? I can't seem to get any level even though I've got sync.

    well the easier way is maybe to transfer ur sample and program to logic via floppy(then u need a floppy drive).or via aksys(then u need the usb option slot on mpc.don't even know if it exist!?).or transfer what u wand digitaly via the coaxial output of the mpc to the optical in of ur mac(then u need a coax2optic converter,and i hope u own a g5 for the optical in)
    seriously it's difficult to answer ur question cause there is many different way .u should give more info.
    wich mac?
    do u have any soundcard?
    do u have any optional card output on the mpc?
    is there a built in coaxial on the mpc?
    did u receive a soft call A.K.S.Y.S with the mpc?
    in this particular case u should have a usb port or at least an optional usb card?

  • I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

    I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

    Hi, I have this exact same problem. I haven't been using an iRig, just a cheap USB-jack cable. I managed to do this with the first cable I bought, but since it broke I've been unable to find a replacement that allows me to hear the drums while recording. DId you manage to get over this issue? If so I would really like to know how. Thanks and best wishes.

  • Recording directly into imovie from Camcorder

    Does anyone know if you can record directly into imovie from your camcorder without using the small cassette tapes?

    Without information on the make and model of the camcorder, it's difficult to provide a specific answer.

  • Routing Quicktime synth audio into Logic

    Does anybody know how to route the Quicktime synthesizer's built in GM sound module's audio output back into Logic so it can be included in a bounce down mix ?

    Sure, first open Jackrouter from your application folder or drag it into your dock.
    Hit the start button. Open Logic and chose Jack router as your device. Open the application you want to route into Logic (like Quicktime/iTunes whatever) and select Jack Router as Standard Input/Output in the Audio Midi setup of your Mac. Back in Jackrouter hit the routing button - menue opens. On the left there are the send port, so in my screenshot example I have chosen Kontakt 3 standalone to be routed into Logic but it could be Quick Time/itunes whatever. I selected Jack Router as the output device in Kontakt as well, now I click on K3 in the send port section and on the right I double click on Logic as the receive ports, the Logic letters turn red to indicate that a connection was made.
    If you connect the Logic send ports to the system receive ports and activate software monitoring you will hear what you record into Logic through Jack Router. So I think this little app is very useful in many situations.

  • What connectors do I need for my ipad so I can connect it to my apogee duet 2 interface essentially using the ipad as an instrument utilizing a few of the synth and drum machine apps to record tracks into Logic on my Mac?

    Ok, so I completely feel like this is a stupid question for those of you already in the know and recording tracks onto your Computers DAW from instrument apps on the iPad and other i devices. I can not seem to find out exactly what connector or unit I need to be able to connect and use my ipad as a instrument to record tracks onto logic. I have an ipad2 that I want to connect to my apogee duet 2 interface which is obviously connected to my Mac. I know Logic comes with plenty of drum and synth options but I still want to be able to use beatmaker, jam up pro and the sunrizer synth apps on some of my tracks. I do have the camera conversion adaptors. So my question is, do I just run from the camera adapter in the ipad into the midi port on my apogee interface? (I'm new to and still learning about midi) Or is there a special 30 pin cable I need to get that runs from the ipad into the XLR or quarter inch in the break out cables on the apogee? I did find one cord out there that plugged into the ipad and had left and right XLR connectors but my duets break out cable only has two inputs each is their own channel. Also , if the cable I need isn't midi  and does connect to the breakout cables, do I set it as an instrument or as a mic in the apogee software? Or am I completely way off base and needing something different all together. Any help would be much appreciated!
    I have a fare amount of experience when it comes to recording, set up and the flow of standard instruments, using external hardware and plugins. But the last few weeks I spent a lot of time programming some great beats in beatmaker on my ipad and I want to track them into Logic. It seemed like no matter how I worded the questions when researching what I thought was and should be simple to figure it out, it just took me to answers I wasn't looking for. Thank you ahead of time. Like I said I'm just starting to get out of my comfort zone and learn about midi and the more digital side of things. So sorry about any ignorance concerning that side of things.

    The new Apogee Duet for iPad and Mac, is compaible with iOS devices and includes a USB Midi input. This sounds like the perfect solution for your workflow.

  • Recording VDrums into Logic Pro

    Hi. I'm trying to record numerous takes from my VDrums into Logic using Cycle record. I've checked the 'Auto mute in cycle record' and 'Auto create new tracks in cycle record' boxes. All the takes are then recorded fine (I can see the information) with a new track for each one, but I can only listen back to the last take I did. All tracks are unmuted but I can only hear the final take. What's going on, it's doing my head in!!
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Hi there are two ways to mute .. one is the whole
    track (ie the blue M light) and the other is the
    region (ie segement of midi on a track) - to mute
    this you press m (assuming you have not re-mapped
    this key). When a cycle record happens a new track is
    created for each cycle and only the regions are
    muted. The last one recorded is not muted.. So in
    this case the "M" buttons on the tracks are should
    all be left alone.
    There is also a mute tool in the Toolbox - that
    allows you to click on a region and toggle its
    mutedness (oh a new word!)..
    Cheers Ian! I obviously failed to recognise the differences between track muting and region muting!
