Recording plug-in instrument directly to audio (no bouncing)

First post here,
is it possible to record directly to audio what I'm playing live on an plug-in instrument, without having to go through the bouncing procedure ?
In other words, setting a plug-in instrument on an instrument channel, playing it live, and get directly an audio file of the performance ?
Thanks for the help !

Thanks ! Actually I'm on Soundflower since this morning but there's a problem with latency when playing live, I'm trying to work it out, if you have an idea on how to monitor the sound going directly from Logic to the audio card because I've noticed if the monitoring has to go through soundflower before reaching your speakers the lag makes the thing unplayable. What I want to achieve with soundflower and if it's possible is to monitor directly but record to audio with soundflower, otherwise I need to find out something else... Tricky one hey !?
Cheers !

Logic pro 10 - recording a midi instrument as an audio track

In my Logic 10 song I have a midi instrument that I want to record as an audio track. I can find no way to get the signal from the output of the "harmonica" track to the input of the audio track, apart from recording it using the external speakers. It must be simple to do, but Apple help is no help. Can somebody please help?

Use "Bounce Track in Place".

Recording 1 Audio Instrument and 1 Audio Track Sumultaneously in LE

Hi,
I have been reading through the forums and as far as I have seen, there no way to record a Midi Signal going into an Audio Instr (for example a drum machine sending midi to the Rock Kit) and at the same time, record an audio input (guitar?).
In LE you don't have R button to Arm an Audio Intr track, so the track will "record" as long as it's selected and you're recording. On the other hand you have to "arm" audio tracks.
If you Arm an audio track and the click on your Audio Instr, start recording an play. Only the Audio Instr will be recorded, despite the fact that both tracks seem to be receiving signal. If you happen to click on your audio track or use SHIFT-Click to select both, the last "clicked" track will be recorded.
Is this correct? I have been trying to record a these two types of tracks simultaneously for a few hours with no success. I have tried all kind of combinations, clicks and stuff like that, nothing will do it. If I record the audio track, the audio inst is "ignored". Is this a LE limitation?
Could somebody please confirm this?
I have an M-Audio Fast Track pro and it works fine.
Thanks in advance.

All you have to do is Shift-Click the R on each of the audio tracks you wish to record while holding down shift. So select each track you want in one shift pushing. If that makes any sense...

Record Video in iMovie 09 with Audio From Garageband

Hi guys,
I'm trying to record a guitar video using iMovie 09 and am having a few problems.
I plugged my POD X3 into my Mac and opened up Garageband, I imported the backing track into Garageband as I wanted to record myself playing over it. I set the audio in both System Preferences and Garageband preferences to have the audio input and output coming through the POD X3.
I hit record on iMovie and I got the sound of my guitar perfectly but no backing track! When I tried to import the backing track into iMovie I can't get it to sync up... Anyone have any ideas?

???? Why are you hitting record in iMovie?? It has nothing to do with GB!
I thing what you want to do is: Import the backing track into iMovie and place it in the project as needed.
To record yourself in iMovie, use Voice Over:
http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/#imovie-voiceover
Otherwise, record yourself as an instrument in GB and export the combined backing track and yourself to a single audio file (i.e. Share to iTunes - uncompressed - and your recording will be available directly from the iMovie media browser). Place the combined file where you need it in the iMovie project. This gives you that advantage of having access the GB amp modeler and stomp boxes.

How do I record multiple midi instruments in Logic Pro simultaneously on separate tracks?sim

Hi. I am trying to record multiple midi instruments simultaneously into Logic Pro 9 through a MOTU USB Fas Lane so that it is similar to recording a live band.
Essentially:
Track 1: Midi Keyboard - Motu Fast Lane Input A - Logic Pro - Software Instrument (Absynth)
Track 2: Midi Drum Kit - Motu Fast Lane Input B - Logic Pro - Software Instrument (Battery)
Neither Midi device can be set to a separate channel.
I would have thought this was a really common application (recoding from multiple live midi sources like a band would normally do) yet it seems unnecessarily complicated.
I gather what I would have to do involves:
1) Going into the Environment.
2) Creating a Physical Input
3) Creating a Sequencer Input
4) Placing a transofrmer between the Physical Input and the Sequencer Input
Where to go ffrom there I have not got a clue!
Any help would be appreciated.
Incidentally I would also like to record two audio tracks at the same time as the midi track, but hoepfully that does not complicate things further.
Thanks,
Luke

I have it set to Performance mode which according to the owners manual: "This mode makes the XP-30 function as a multitimbral sound
source, and Performance settings can be modified. If you’re
using an external MIDI device to control the XP-30 in this
mode, it will function as a multitimbral sound source."

Instrument track to audio

when dumping an instrument track to audio track, if you have a waves plug on the out put 1&2
does this get applied to the instrument track when exported to audio track?

Not when you export, only the channel strip inserts will be applied. You can however bounce the soloed track to apply all bus and master efx.

Adding a plug-in to just one audio file?

Hello,
I'm really new to Logic Pro and I was curious if there is a way to add a plug-in to just one audio file in a track and not the whole track? Thanks!

Or you can press 'A' on your computer's keyboard and where it says 'Volume', click and hold to bring up the automation options. Choose 'Bypass' for that plug -in slot and add four nodes to the line by clicking on it in four places. You can get the plug in to be bypassed until the appropriate place that way.

No, you cannot do that at this time.

Any app that allows me to record the last few minutes of audio continuously?

I need an app that allows me to record the last N minutes of audio continuously until I stop it.
So, say I want it to record just the last 5 minutes of audio.
I could potentially have it recording for hours but I don't want an audio file that is mutli hours long - I just want the last 5 minutes.
You might ask, why I would want this ?
Say, you're trying to record something, but you don't know exactly when it'll happen, and when it a happens, it doesn't last long enough for you to turn on the phone and start recording.

I saw an app exactly like that in the App store months ago.
It was for lecutres primarly.
When opened it always "records" like to build a buffer though not really saving. When you press record it will start really saving and can go back a ways based on options. So a student can listen to lecture but only press the record button when wanting to save something and have it able to save back x amount of time and forward until told to stop.
Sounds like exactly what you want. I just don't remember what it is called.

EXS24 instrument created from audio region- How to move files?

In Logic Pro X. I have created an EXS24 instrument from an audio region with 3 well-separated sounds. The instrument in EXS24 editor shows a zone with 3 files. Each file is actually the same physical file, but, when examining the three separate "files" (what should I call them??), a different section is highlighted for each tone. I can set a note for each of these "files". This instrument plays perfectly.
So now I have 2 files in my project folder - a .exs one for the instrument, and ONE SINGLE .wav file somehow representing three different samples. I want to move them to ~Library/Application Support/Logic/folderName, where folderName is , say, myInstruments (for .exs) and mySamples (for .wav). When I do this, and erase the files in the project folder, I can load the instrument and the sample file into EXS24, but the sample file is recognized as one single tone - that is, in the EXS24 editor, there is only one file rather than 3, and that file has all three audio sounds.
How do I move these files correctly? Is there some way to get them created originally in the correct place?

Hi keystrike,
This article will give you information about how to move files in Logic -

Realplayer Browser Record Plug in v14.0.2 cannot be enable

I am running Winp sp3. After Firefox Portable was updated to v13, Realplayer to v14.0.2.633, Flash Player to v11.3.300.265, the Realplayer download function in Youtube disappeared. I searched the weband follow Real's suggestion to roll Flash Player to v10.3. I followed, and also uninstall Firefox and reinstall. In the add-on manager, the RearPlayer Brownser Record Plug-in in the "Extensions" is still blocked and the video download function in YouTube is still not available. How I may remove the block?

Thank you very much for the detail instruction. I do not have a chance to try. After I posted the help request, I received a notice from RealPlayer that there is a new version (V15) released. After the update, the issue does not exist any more.
I will keep your information at hand, in case any future RealPlayer update creates the similiar issue again.
Many thanks for your prompt reply.

Import the videos into iTunes on your computer and use Home Sharing to stream the videos to the iPad. These should get you started.

You can change a password for an Apple ID. However, now whoever finds the iPod will know his email address and I assume that the email address is his Apple ID.

According to the terms of the iTunes Store, you have to be 13 in order to have an Apple ID.

After the last update of logic x my record button disappeared while using M-Audio

Hello,
I've been using Logic for ages and recorded many demo tracks with M-Audio Fast Track Pro. Recently, I updated the Logic Pro X and after that I realised that the record button in Logic Pro X disappeared even though the Fast Track Pro is plucked in in the same way as before.
I can hear the sound from the plucked mic or guitar but unable to record it.
Thank you for any help.

Update:
For some currently unknown reason, 10.0.5 seems to break M-Audio devices....
It may be M-Audio's fault or Logic's but at this time, it's hard to say until an explanation is forthcoming....
Please contact M-Audio and ask for their assistance....
Until a fix is available, the workaround is to roll back to 10.0.4.... assuming of course, you have backups which you should always make before upgrading/updating anything......
