Recording Control Surface automation to a channel strip

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone could help me.
I have a Novation Remote 25 SL which its perfectly connected with Logic as a Control Surface.
What I want is to record live all the moments i do with Mixer in Logic using Remote Sl as a Control Surface while my track is playing. I want to record it to one channel strip or somewhere were i can edit them later. Is it possible? Thanks in advance.

Read the automation section in the manual.
Basically - switch all channels you wish to automate into Latch mode to write automation. Put them back to read mode to avoid overwriting. Logic has full automation editing.

    Are your MC Mix in Eucon mode? If you use a midi mode, there's a possibility the MC Mix is sending MIDI messages. And are you sure we're talking midi parts and not automation?

  • Control only the software instrument of one channel strip at a time with one Controller

    Hi people,
    I have a Nord Lead 2 and a Korg Nanokontrol and I want to use these as Midi controllers in the following way, but don't really know how to set up the system:
    I have 4 Channelstrips and each has the free software instrument Tyrell N6 inserted. I have the opportunity to change the volume of each channel strip with my faders on the Nanokontrol which works fine and gives me the opportunity to make layers and change also to only use one sound at a time. And this works fine. However, now I want to have the opportunity to change the parameters of each Tyrell with my Nord Lead. But with 4 channelstrips each with a Tyrell N6 I want to have the opportunity to only somehow manipulate only one instance of Tyrell at a time and change the channelstrip for which the Nord Lead manipulates the Tyrell. Is there an opportunity in Mainstage to do that?
    Hope it is understandable. Help would be really much appricated. Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Hi DaCaptain,
    Thank you very much for your answer. I tried it yesterday, but it doesnt really work for me to be honest. The thing is that I really wanna stick to one patch, so that I can have like one patch for each song.
    However, if you might be interested I found a way to do it yesterday on my own. This is how I have done it:
    In Layout-Mode
    - Create Controls for each instance of Tyrell. For my purpose I created 4 times:
                 - controlls for the Filter Section
                 - controls for ADSR1
                 - controls for ADSR2
    - So you have 4 Sections of controllers in Layout Mode. Each meant to controll one Tyrell Instance
    - Now each section gets its own Midi Channel. So all the controllers of section 1 respond to MIDI Channel 1 and the controllers of section 2 respond to MIDI Channel 2 and so on. 
    - Now you tell the Nord Lead that it should send via MIDI Channel 1 and you assign the Cutoff-Controller of the Nord Lead to the controller (the one of the first section) that is suppose to control the cutoff of the first Tyrell. And you proceed this way until all the controllers of the first sections are assigned. Then you swith to MIDI Channel 2 on the Nord Lead and assign the Cutoff-Controller of the Nord Lead to the controller (the one of the second section) that is suppose to control the cutoff of the second Tyrell. And here again you proceed this way until all the controllers of the second sections are assigned. Then you go on with the third and fourth section taking MIDI Channel 3 and 4.
    In Edit-Mode
    - In Edit Mode now you of course assign the controllers to the functions in each Tyrell
    Result
    - Now you can switch between the MIDI Channels on the Nord Lead. This is quiet easy because you can assign a MIDI Channel to one of four buttons on the Nord Lead.
    - So if you switch to MIDI Channel 1 you can controll the functions of the first Tyrell and if you switch to MIDI Channel 2 you can controll the functions of the second Tyrell. And all in one Patch with only one controller which is even from the nineties. I find this really great. The only problem is that the Layout might get really messy, if you try to maybe control more functions of each Tyrell. And I really think maybe Mainstage in future could give us the opportunity to create bigger Layouts - maybe with different Windows or something.
    Hope you might find this interesting or even helpful.
    See you

  • Control surface problem with tracks assigned to Rewire channels

    I'm using Logic 9 and Reason 4. My control surface is an M-Audio ProjectMix using Mackie emulation.
    I have a simple project in Reason with 2 instruments, and a created a simple Logic project. I then created 2 external midi tracks, and then used the library tab to assign them to the Reason devices.
    My problem is that, unless I set the control surface to Track, it always shows the rewire objects (and they don't have any controllable properties). This is annoying as they are taking up space on the control surface, and since they are not visible in the mixer in Arrage mode (unless I go to View>Show Other Tracks) I would not expect them to be visible on the control surface. And most annoyingly, whichever rewire object in the mixer is selected, all the rewire channels on the control surface will display that object's name (surely that's not supposed to happen).
    Interestingly, if I create either 2 instruments or a multi in the environment, and wire them into the Rewire objects, then set the tracks to point to the instruments, the problem disappears.
    This does not sound like correct behaviour to me; can anybody confirm that this is what you would expect?
    Thanks,
    Adam.
    PS. I would guess that it's because Logic treats them, internally, as having the same channel, which is why they can't be individually controlled.

    Let's try "disable handshake" in the nucleus remote. You have to restart the nucleus for the change to take effect.
    It worked for me!

  • Info please...control surface and mixer for fcp and audio recording

    i'm looking for a control surface for final cut pro and also xlr/line inputs for recording guitar and vocals in cubase or audacity.
    read all the info here after numerous searches. still some questions.
    was looking at the tascam 1082 but not sure of the build quality...i saw one and it looked a bit cheaply built. the two demos at guitar center were falling apart. didn't look nearly as well built as the mackie. also i have been reading here and elsewhere about bugs/problems etc.
    was looking at the m-audio...not sure about that one...$1250...
    was also looking at mackie control surface...but no firewire...how do you hook it up to a mac? also no audio inputs. what would i need to buy to work in conjunction with that for recording audio? if i bought the mackie, i'd still have to buy an audio inpur device and that would end up costing as much as the m audio.
    i know i could just buy a mixer for recording and forget the control surface...i already have a shuttle pro which works fine and i have gotten used to using the mixer in fcp...no problems. but the motorized faders on a control surface sure would be nice
    so questions:
    how does the mackie connect to a mac and what other device(s) would i need to record audio and how would they hook up...would they play nice together?
    ppl who own the tascam...happy with it? used the mic and line preamps? are they noisy?
    do i need an additional firewire bus reguardless of which control surface i get?
    how does one route the audio for these when in fcp? i currently route my audio through my dsr 11 deck. will the control surface just go through firewire or would i have to actually jack into the control surface with additional cables and have to remove my present cables from my speakers everytime i want to use the control surface?
    sorry so many questions. it's really tough to make an informed decision in buying something if you don't understand the mechanics of it.
    btw, appreciate the info so far that i found doing my searches.
    thanks
    carl

    I've got the Tascam FW1082 and I absolutely love it. I can't believe I ever edited without it. I'm considering upgrading to the 1884 in the future.
    As for the mic preamps, they sound great. Nice and clean. There's no such thing as a line preamp, but the line inputs are clean as well.
    For routing, I go to the 1082 via firewire until I turn on my external video monitor, at which point I send both video & audio to the deck and route the audio from the deck into a pair of the mixer's analog inputs. That way you avoid the delay of external monitoring. The 1082 allows you to listen to both the computer & the inputs at the same time, so switching back and forth is seamless.
    As for durability, I've had it out on a few location recordings, but most of the time it's on my desk. It's still in mint condition. I'm sure if it was on a display where any 10 year old could come mess with it, it wouldn't be in as great of shape, but then again, a Neve console wouldn't look that great if every little brat that walked in the door could play with it. If you take care of your stuff, you'll have no issues with this mixer.

  • Odd stuff - recording delay - automatic channel Strip changes

    Recently I upgraded my interface from a MOTU 828MKII, to a Metric Halo 2882. I also upgraded from Logic 8 to 9. The problem is, I did this in the middle of a project. This project was/is just a test of a whole new upgrade to my home studio including some preamps/mics/interface/acoustic treatment/etc. Up to this point I mainly recorded my own stuff (5yrs), no big deal. But I'm thinking of moving this into a part time gig. So I asked a some friends if they'd be interested in free recording as guinea pigs.
    The first day (Saturday) we tracked drums into the MOTU on Logic 8, as my Metric Halo interface hadn't arrived yet. Everything went good. That Monday, my Metric Halo arrived. I switched out the MOTU, and had the 2882 up and running by Wednesday. Thursday, I installed Logic 9 and updated to 9.1. I had all weekend to work though some of the new stuff, and it all sounded good.
    By Monday I had the guitar/singer come by to lay down the rhythm guitar. When we recorded it, with the same settings as in the previous session, although with Logic 8 and a Motu interface, the guitar was around 246 samples late. I adjusted the Recording Delay ahead 246 samples, and it made it slower. I adjusted back 246, still not right. So we called the session.
    I've scoured forums, and the only info I can find is plugin latency, and I/O buffer settings. I never had any issue with the MOTU as far as recording delay goes. I had latency issues, but nothing that actually recorded. It was my understanding that, the I/O buffer only affects the monitoring latency, everything "goes to tape" correctly though. I've spent the last 4-5 days trying to figure this out. If I start a new project with the 2882, everything syncs up great, no delay at all. But if I try to add to any project that was started with the MOTU, and Logic 8, I get a recorded delay.
    The frustrating part of this is, last night, I updated Logic to 9.1.1, and recorded a loopback click. It worked fine. No delay at all. I tested a bass through the same recording chain I used before, and it was perfect too. I'm not sure if this was a fix in the new update, or I have some other instability thing going on. Any Ideas there?
    Also, after updating last night I had a weird problem with plugins that were disabled, suddenly re-engaging. It seemed as though when I would do any changes in the MIO Console, I would come back to Logic, and random plugins would be re-enabled. I'll check tonight if this is repeatable, but last night it was a bother. I also had a Focusrite LiquiMix running at the same time. Maybe this was causing a problem. It did seem to only affect the channel strips that the LiquidMix inserts were on.
    Thanks,
    Erik

    Thanks very much; I'm still perplexed though. You're right, the "mono->stereo" plug-ins yield stereo effects for the guitar; but I'm referring to the pre-assembled "sets" of plug-ins that are accessed by clicking on the word "inserts" (above the various slots for plug-ins). When you click on this word, all sorts of effects-sets are offered: for drums, vocals, pianos, guitars, etc. I'm referring to one for "electric guitar" (under "distorted guitar") called "Angus on SG + MS 1959" (though this is true of the other effects in this same category for electric guitar). Here's why things don't make sense to me: 1) since this effects-set ("Angus...") works just fine if it's applied AFTER I've recorded the guitar dry, why should it NOT work when I'm recording with the effect? I.e., I don't need a special double guitar plug for my Firepod for the effect to work on the signal it HAS recorded; so why should the special double plug be necessary WHILE recording? Meanwhile, 2) given that this is a GUITAR effect (Angus Young playing his Gibson SG through a 1959 Marshall Stack), and guitars always have mono output, then how can it be that Logic, by design, should require users to buy a special stereo plug when using effect-sets specifically designed for guitar? .... That's why I'm perplexed. I do think your two suggestions will work; but it just seems impossible to me that Logic is actually designed to work in this way -- at least not on purpose. On the other hand, I'm a newbie, and I may be missing something that's obvious. Sure would appreciate hearing whether it seems to people that there's a problem with my set-up (or with Logic), or whether the physical stereo-plug solution is actually a well-known practice that I am simply not familiar with. Many thanks!
    You have recorded only one chanel on a stereo track.
    Use a second input on your firepod or use mono ->
    stereo plugins on a mono track to hear them in stereo.

  • Using a Control Surface with the Clip Mixer

    I'm contemplating purchasing a Mackie MCU to help automate some of the volume edits I have to make using 5 tracks in the Audio Clip Mixer over 80 hours of video.  I've tried to contact Adobe support, but they are about as cluless as a bag of hammers.  When I asked if the clip mixer works with a control surface (after 4 calls and 4 different agents) I was told no.  Which is total BS as there is toggle in the clip mixer called "Toggle Control Surface Clip Mixer Mode". They read from scripts and have no clue what they are talking about.   I guess I should not be surprised as its an outsourced call center staffed with drones who have never even used the software, much less in production!  Adobe you should be ashamed of your support, it's appauling! (BTW I own an online Magazine in the 3d industry and will be writting an article about your appauling support soon) 
    Anyway, onto my specific questions:
    1) The Mackie MCU has overlay cards for button mappings for many different apps, but PP is not one of them.  What functionaliy is mapped to the control surface specially from PP and the clipmixer?
    2) Is there a way to group channels so that keyframes can be written to multiple clips at the same time by using one fader?
    3) In the clip mixer there is a keyframe toggle, does such a toggle translate to the control surface?
    4) Sometimes I want to manually keyframe, rather thanan make adjustments while the playhead is moving, so I will simply click the fader slider to write a keyframe, manually move the playhead and then adjust the fader to write the subsequent keyframes.  As faders on a control surface can not be pushed like a button, is there a way to generate a keyframe from the control surface?
    5) Are there any known limitations using the control surface vs the software for both the clip and track mixers?
    Jeff

    The Mackie device has some quirks, and while basic functionality is there, PPro does not have as strong support with mackie as it does with eucon through the avid artist series.  The physical MCU keys switched between different versions of the device and what is undo on one is a different function on another, so sadly, depending on what model you get, those buttons may or may not be correct by the label that is on the device.  There is no way for us to tell which one you have.
    Clip mixer mode can be enabled either through the fly out menu in the clip mixer or by assigning a keyboard shortcut.  When engaged, it supports the faders, pan/balance/mute and solo.  If automation is engaged it will record automation, though you can't engage clip mixer automation via the control surface like you can on the track mixer.
    Unfortunately there is no way to group channels at this time, aside from making a submix, but I do not think this is what you were requesting.
    There is not a way to manually enter a keyframe via a button on the control surface.
    It is possible to customize some of the control surface buttons by hitting the button assignments button in the Mackie control surface window.  This is mostly limited to the function keys and a few others
    The touch and latch mode lights is a known bug.
    If you want more customization, the Avid Artist series has much better support in this regard.  We set up many soft keys, but you can also create your own very easily. 
    I will take a look at the other issues you have raised as they sound like bugs, but I also encourage you to file them through here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform as it will help us to gauge how many are using the mackie protocol vs eucon.

  • Control surface toggle audio clip mixer

    Thought I'd post this as it took me some time to work out it was possible.
    External control surfaces now work with the Audio Track Mixer, but I couldn't find a way (or any info) on how to make it work with the new Audio Clip Mixer. Eventually I found 'Toggle Control Surface Mixer Mode' in the keyboard shortcuts and now everything is working well in both modes.
    This works for mute, solo and level in the Clip Mixer. I've not yet attempted any automation, I can't see a way to turn on the 'record keyframes' other than manually one track at a time. Still, progress to this point is very welcome.

  • 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?

  • Issues re Tascam FW-1082 & FW-1884 control surface - integration with FCP

    The joint Tascam/Apple release put out in 2005 touting seamless compatibility between these two products (see below) turns out to be a gross exageration. Basic functions are conceivably compatible, but some do not work and there is a paucity of documentation available. The many buttons and controls on the Tascam's control surfaces are rendered useless. The consumer consumer has been wronged and these are not cheap products. Countless similar posts on this site backs me up on this.
    I have the Tascam fw-1884, which has the same setup as the 1082. Have any of you been able to assign quick keys on the tascam using the keyboard customization tool in FCP? I've followed the example on Tascam's support site, but it does not seem to work.
    Also, looking for more documentation/tutorials/consultants who can help me master all the features of the Tascam with FCP 5.
    Thanks,

    TASCAM interfaces now compatible with Apple®'s
    Final Cut® Pro 5 & Soundtrack Pro
    MCP (Mackie Control Protocol) onboard Final Cut Pro 5 allows the use of external audio control surfaces to edit and manipulate audio
    Montebello, CA—April 16, 2005—TASCAM's full line of FireWire audio control surfaces and interfaces are now compatible with Apple®'s Final Cut Pro 5 and Soundtrack Pro editing software with Apple's unveiling of the Final Cut® Studio production suite that includes the Final Cut Pro® 5 upgrade.
    This major upgrade to the Apple's Emmy award-winning software means that Final Cut Pro 5 and Soundtrack Pro are now fully compatible with MCP (Mackie Control Protocol) devices, so you can use external audio control surfaces— including TASCAM's FW-1884 or FW-1082—to edit and manipulate audio more efficiently.
    TASCAM's newest audio controller, the FW-1082, has nine motorized faders for adjusting audio levels during mix playback utilizing the revamped software. Editors can turn up a dialog line or reduce the music level during a voiceover section without clicking on breakpoints. Just grab a fader and go! The transport buttons can be used to start and stop playback in any editor that supports the Mackie Control or Mackie HUI. TASCAM's FW-1082 also has a MIDI fader mode that can be used in programs like Apple Motion 2 to adjust parameters in real-time during playback. And since it's an audio interface as well, producers can record voiceover and sound effects right in the edit suite with professional results.
    The FW-1082 has four mic inputs, four line ins and S/PDIF digital in and out – all available at 96kHz. It features 10 inputs, including four balanced XLR mic inputs with phantom power. Eight channel strips each feature a 60mm touch-sensitive moving fader and select/solo/mute buttons, and a moving master fader.
    For even more I/O and surface control, the FW-1884 offers 18-channels of inputs (eight analog and eight ADAT digital and two S/PDIF coaxial or optical), eight balanced XLR mic/line inputs with high-quality mic preamps and phantom power, plus nine 100mm motorized touch-sensitive faders.
    G4 dual processor 1.25mhz   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   FCP 5.1.1

    So after writing this question I closed the laptop, leaving the Tascam on & connected. Returned 30 mins later to see if anyone had replied (where are you all??!!), opened the laptop & the Tascam suddenly springs to lift, faders move & Soft LCD app shows activity correctly.
    So, all appears to be OK although I don't really know why...!!

  • Using 01V96 as a control surface.

    Hi, I am having some serious issues using my 01v96 in remote mode (via MIDI) as a control surface. The first thing is that when the 01v96 is listed on the setup page Logic continually outputs a C -2 note about once a second. It also outputs sysex data and continually zaps my free memory. This is worsened with Studio Manager running at the same time. The other thing is, I can use the first 8 channel strips when the input port is listed as all but not when I try to change it to a specific port. I cant get the second 8 channel faders to work at all, even manually adding the control surfaces. In fact, as soon as I try to change to a specific port the 01v says it has gone offline and is waiting for MIDI input.

    I have now got the 01v to operate as a control surface however it is still causing logic to output a C -2 note event at roughly 1 second intervals. Any idea what this could be??
    Also, logic is registering the sysex data from port 1 of the 01v. On Clicks & Ports I can manually connect all of the MIDI ins apart from yam. port 1 to the seq. & thru but is there any other way of simply knocking out one of the midi in ports in logic. Unfortunately it won't let me do it in OSX.

  • Automate Guitar Channel Strip Settings

    Can anyone tell me if there is a way to automate a change is the Channel Strip setting during a performance. For instance, is there automate a change from:
    02 Electric Guitar/02 Complete Rigs/Rock/Bell-Bottomed Stack
    to say....
    02 Electric Guitar/03 Clean/03 Clean Delay/Clean Trashy Delay
    at some point within the performance (and back again,etc).
    This would sure beat stomping on pedals or trying to program automation of multiple amp settings and effects settings, etc. Thanks
    Paul

    I don't know if there is but I do know there's a WAY to make it happen. One way around the sound change automation idea is to record your guitar performance then copy it on another track. Two tracks of the same performance, You after all have 255 tracks available so space isn't an issue. Assign one set of guitar settings to one track and a different set to the other then decide where in the song "track one" plays and where in the song "track two" plays. You can do this using a volume automation or even cutting parts you don't want to play. Done correctly it will sound like one track with a sound change at the correct times and one advantage of doing this is you can have both tracks play at the same time or even run them in stereo. (One in the left speaker and one in the right)
    Again there MAY be a way to change the sound profile mid track but if there isn't the above idea will do the trick and give you some added sound options OVER changing the sound profile mid track.

  • Turning oxygen 25 into control surface

    Im trying to make the knobs on my Maudio oxygen 25 control the channel strips in logic.  The controller works with playing notes inside of logic but I can't get it to do anything else.  Thanks

    I set it up manually in Logic and in FCP.
    I think where I might have gone wrong is that I manually added the MCU via OSX Audio/MIDI Setup and added connection lines between the MCU and my Motu Ultralite -- from the info I've gathered so far I should not need to add the MCU at all -- only need to select it via FCP/Logic and tell it which MIDI Port to use.
    If that doesn't work with FCP, then I'll have to get a separate dedicate MIDI interface and try that.
    I do have a request for the Apple developers working on FCP, please, please, please update the Control Surface support code -- it's pretty obvious that requiring the Audio Mixer window to be open to "activate" the MCU is VERY un-Mac like, something I'd expect to find on a Microsoft Windows platform, not a Mac. I wouldn't think fixing this problem in FCP as a patch would be a big deal -- would it?
    Thanks, Rob.
