Setting the modulation effect on a midi instrument

when you are using a software instruent with a MIDI keyboard how do you customize what the modulation wheel does for some sounds it just adds vibrato others it does like a big resonance sweep for some synth things, can you set this to change certain effects youve assigned to the instrument? Also can you do this in logic?

To my knowledge the articulation of a software instrument is depending on the kind of the instrument you pick. Some instruments can be sustained, some can play tremolo.
For example the acoustic guitar harmonics from Jam Pack 3 you can sustain with modulation settings, the Blue grass Banjo will play a vibrato instead. So to achieve a sustain articulation you will have to pick an instrument that can be sustained. The articulations of the instruments are described in manual that comes with the Jam Pack installation CD. I don't know if these manuals can be found online somewhere.

How do I change the volume for a single midi instrument in GarageBand 10? Every time I move the volume, it moves back!

How do I change the volume for a single midi instrument in GarageBand 10? Every time I move the volume, it moves back!

Every time I move the volume, it moves back!
Check, if you have a volume automation set on the software instrument track.
If the track volume automation curve is enabled, the volume slider for the track will move with the automation curve.
Click the automation curves disclosure triangle in the track header and disable the volume automation.

How can I save the modulation I apply to an instrument during recording such that it remains during playback?

How can I save the modulation I apply to an instrument during recording such that it remains during playback? For example, I apply modulation #8 during recording, but when I play the track back the modulation is not incorporated.

Hi Vlad,
Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way to programmatically read the voltage output to the drive, as the voltage is all determined internally by the controller circuitry on the board. Depending on the controller though, you may be able to physically route the output terminal to a spare analog input channel and read in the voltage that way. This example Analog Input with 73xx Motion Card shows you how to program LabVIEW to do this.

Lost all the sound to midi instruments

I was working on a track and out of nowhere, the sound of all my midi instruments dissapeared...When i push (N) to see the score, all the notes are gone too? Does anyone know what happened or if i can retrieve my music? thanks

This seems like a bug to me.
I had the same issue...no sound on games, but sound on iTunes, videos, etc. But I had the rocker switch set to "lock Rotate", and it was OFF. I even got the notification at times to increase sound effects, and it allowed me to turn up the volume of sound effects. But still no game sounds.
So in the mode of "try everything" I followed King_Penguin's advice (Thanks KP.) Switched the side switch to "Mute", turned it on, turned it off, and back to lock "rotate" (still off, though.) Now the sound in games works.
Anyway, it works now. But seems like a bug that would be nice to have fixed.

Volume Problem when using external midi instruments

Hi everyone, I'm having a problem recording the audio from my external midi instruments into Logic 8.
I have all my external midi instruments set up in my environment and they are all going through a motu micro lite interface, with the audio going through a focusrite saffire pro 40.
The way I record Midi into Logic is to load up a new software instrument-select external instrument-find the relevant synth & input-record the midi that I want & adjust as needed-bounce down to an audio channel.
The problem Im having at the moment and have had for a little while is that when I record this way, the audio that accompanies the midi, although I can hear it loudly through my monitors, the input levels in Logic are really small and when I come to bouncing down and listen back to it, it is a lot quieter than I'd originally heard.
With the Pro 40 comes the Mix Control surface, upon checking this the volume on the master output channels is much more representative of the volume I'm hearing through my monitors, and it isn't the same within Logic. I've checked that I haven't got an output coming through channels on this at the same time as its coming through Logic which would result in the sound being doubled and obviously louder, this definitely doesn't appear to be the case.
Its really puzzling and quite annoying me, If anyone could shed any light on why this may be happening that would be fantastic, I've used this forum a few times and I've always found people to be very kind & helpful.

I've checked that I haven't got an output coming through channels on this at the same time as its coming through Logic which would result in the sound being doubled and obviously louder, this definitely doesn't appear to be the case.
It was the first thing I was thinking about. Stop the "Software Monitoring" in the Logic Prefs and try again if you do not have any duplicated hardware routings.

One MIDI input, one set of modulation parameters for the EXS24

This might be somewhat of a neophyte question, but here goes:
I'm interested in being able to set a specific set of modulation parameters for each note in series of notes inputted into the EXS24. I'd like to be able to bypass any sort of complex routing techniques with the modulation matrix or automating the parameters in the arrangement window. For instance if I input 2 C1 notes, one right after the other, of the same length, I'd to be able to set the velocity, filter values, ASDR values, etc. of the first completely independently from the second. The main reason I ask this is that for instruments such as a guitar (which has multiple strings), one note might be able to be played at high velocity, high release, low attack, for instance, while another one might be played exactly after that (on a separate string maybe) with low velocity, high release, high attack, etc., etc. In order to achieve this more realistic sound, would I have to work with multiple instances of the EXS24 (and then maybe just group them all together?), or is this sort of micro-manipulation of all the modulation parameters for each individual midi note input somehow possible with just one instance of EXS24?
Hope this makes sense!

Do you have a controller with polyphonic after touch? you can already have different velocities for note attacks and filters with a standard velocity sensing keyboard. If your board sends release velocity you can also have a different release for each note. With poly after touch you can have different vibrato depth for each note. If you want differing mod speeds for different notes I'd have to give it more thought...

How can I set the gain on a SCXI-1102 module without having my computer lock-up for 3 seconds?

Forgive my insolence, but did it never occur to anyone that spinning in a hard loop while polling a status register to set a gain for 3 seconds isn�t a great idea?
I have a number of SCXI-1102 modules to set the gains on, and it takes several seconds for each. Reading the documentation on the subject indicates that the SCXI_Set_Gain call polls a status register waiting for the gain to settle before returning � and it doesn�t even yield while doing so.
Are there any other ways I can set the gain? Is there a way that doesn't poll the register that returns in a reasonable amount of time?
AFAICT, there's no good reason to only allow one module to be s
etting its gain at a time. An asynchronous call it really needed - one that makes it the API programmer's responsibility to check the status of the register, or one that spawns a thread and sleeps between polls, and signals an event or invokes a callback or some-such-thing. Or you could even just sleep for three seconds after setting all the gains, this way the delay would be 3 seconds total � not 3 seconds for each gain set.

This NI-DAQ function call directly accesses the nidaq32.dll. While the nidaq32.dll is multithread safe, it is not a multithreaded DLL. This is also described in the KnowledgeBase entry 1V9DSHDM: "Can NI-DAQ Handle Different Operations at the Same Time? Is It a Multi-threaded DLL?"
You are correct that the SCXI_Set_Gain function is not asynchronous. Thus, you do have to wait till that function returns before calling the next one. LabVIEW has found a way around this. So, you can actually use the LabVIEW functions to set the gain on these modules without having to wait as you do with SCXI_Set_Gain.

External Midi Instruments in the Environment - Can't get things to work....

I have a MOTU MicroExpressUSB 4INx6OUT MIDI interface that's been defined as follows in my Audio/midi Setup.
1 - Mackie HUI (I/O)
2 - Keyboard (I/0)
3 - Keyboard (I/0)
4 - Roland Elect Drum Kit TD12 (I/0)
5 - Sound Module (0 only)
6 - Sound Module (0 only)
By itself (outside Logic), the interface triggers and appears to work fine
However, in Logic it's a different story. I've read the manual backward/forward and the environment subject is very confusing and what's not clear is how the path is connected (or cabled...) I've defined multi-instruments (with actual patch names) in my environment, I have assigned ports and sub-channels accordingly and all this is fine. Patch names come thru in pull downs, but the problem is nothing is talking to the interface thru Logic.
I've tried putting the "Port IN" object into my MIDI environment which I understand is supposed to emulate the midi interface as configured in your A/M setup. The object I got was a 4-port object that also includes a "sum" port. I'm guessing you're supposed to cable the ports to each multi-instrument assigned a port and I've done this accordingly. However, I see no way to cable the sound modules that are only Midi OUTS of my interface. This makes sense given this is a "Port IN" object, but I see no other object that would allow me to cable the outs and hence I curious how Logic will talk to the sound modules.
The manual also talks about the "sequence" object that everything has to route thru in order for Logic to process MIDI. Since the manual is not clear on how to cable this object either I took a guess and cabled the "sequence" object to the "sum" port on the "Port In" object.
This is as far as I've been able to get, but nothing is working and Logic is not talking to the interface because no interface indicator lights (ie: IN,OUT,trigger, etc). Picking a program from a pull down menu also does nothing.
It can't be that hard to control external instruments, but the manual being clear as mud has not helped. I'm sure it's something to do with this crazy environment, the way things are "cabled" or defined, but I've not been able to figure it out.
Sorry bout the book, but there's a lot of info here. Any help or insight would be appreciated.
thanks in advance...

Don't drag the midi into an open Logic project. The tracks won't set up correctly.
'Open' the midi file with Logic as if it were a Logic project. Then all the tracks will be set up so you can start editing them and applying better saved sounds and instruments, but you'll be at a starting place where you can hear what's going on.

Port Forwarding.....or Port Mapping....as Apple calls it is a difficult and complex configuration method for most users. Because there are so many variables involved in this type of setup, it is not possible to provide a step by step guide that will work for everyone with all devices.
It is possible that a setup guide exists for the the WD drive and AirPort Extreme, but you will have to go looking for it on the Internet. Even if you find one, it may not be tailored to your specific situation or needs.
Sometimes, you can do everything right....at least according to someone's article or "how to" guide, and things still will not work correctly.
In situations like this, when you really don't know what to do, you need to enlist the aid of an IT pro, who will know what to do based on your particular products and unique circumstances. Sometimes....they won't be able to get things working either due to particular circumstances.
But, before you do this, I would strongly recommend that you use a Static IP address for your Internet connection with your ISP. If you do not have this now, contact them to ask them if they offer this type of connection. Expect to pay more for this type of service, of course.

Then on each analog channel or count channel you can specify a percentage change for deadbanding in FieldPoint Explorer. This is done on a channel by channel basis, by right-clicking on the particular IO module and choosing Edit this Device, then choosing Channel Configuration.

How to Set the Effective Date to Sysdate in OAF Page

Hi All,
I am new to OAF and started working on OAF. I have a unique situation and I am unable to get it going. Here is the situation.
1) Currently on Benefits module when an user logons he/she will be directed to FamilyMbrsPG. In this Page I had extended the controller(BenEnrlHeaderCO) to set the Effective Date to as that of life event occured date. This is working fine.
But the issue arrises when one clicks the next button on FamilyMbrsPG. The requirement is when One navigates to CurrOvwPG at that page the effective date needs to be reset to Sysdate which I am unable to do. But the probloem is when I am trying to debug the controllers files of CurrOvw It is pointing to the controller class of FamilyMbrsPG which is BenEnrlHeaderCO.
I was trying to reset the Effective Date as of sysdate.
Can you please let me know as how to proceed from here.
Thanks and Regards
Vinod

Hi Gauravv
Well here it is
1) But the probloem is when I am trying to debug the controllers files of CurrOvw It is pointing to the controller class of FamilyMbrsPG which is BenEnrlHeaderCO
In this scenario what is happening is for the page CurrOvwPG there are 6 controller class files which are as follows.:
1) BeneficiariesOverviewCO.java
2) CoveredDependentsOverviewCO.java
3) CurrentBenefitsCO.java
4) CurrentBenefitsTopCO.java
5) SelectionOverviewTableCO.java
6) SelectionsOverviewCO.java
When I ran the project in debug mode and placed the breakpoints for the controller class files. As soon as I click the next button in FamilyMbrsPG the breakpoint in occuring at line31 of BenEnrlHeaderCO which is again a controller class file for FamilyMbrsPG which has been already extended to set EffectiveData to that of Life even occured Date.
Now in CurrOvwPG I need to reset the EffectiveDate to Sysdate. Please let me know if this is clear...
Thanks and Regards

Setting the cursor on a particular input field in module pool

Hi,
I am working on an abap module program, the requirement is the cursor should be placed on a particular field at run time.
In detail: Table contains zserialno primary key field, zemailid of char type.
Screen design: 1st text input field is zserialno
                         2nd field zemailid is splitted into 3 input text fields.
For 2nd field zemailid 1st input field allows user to enter his/her email name, 2nd input field is an drop down which contains domain names and 3rd field is an empty field which is to be triggered on user action.
example: zemailid- 1st input field XYZ 2nd input field conatains @gm../@yah....and others. If user selects on others value in drop down of 2nd input field, the cursor should point the 3rd input field which allows the user to enter his/her other domain.
I used
SET CURSOR FIELD <3rd inpu field namet>.
, but the cursor pointing the key field of the table zserialno even the input field of zserialno was provided with a value.
Any idea on this is appreciated.
Edited by: Sona_abaper on May 7, 2011 5:34 PM

Hi Sona,
F1:
Effect:
During PBO processing, this statement sets the cursor in the screen layout of the current screen. The cursor can be positioned by entering a screen element after FIELD or by entering a specific position using col and lin. Outside of PBO processing, the cursor is positioned in the next list displayed on the screen.
If the SET CURSOR statement is not specified, depending on the definition of the screen, the cursor is set according to the following hierarchy:
    On the cursor position determined statically in the screen properties,
    On the first input field of the screen,
    On the first screen element of the screen,
    On the command field in the systemtoolbar.
The latter also applies if the command field in the system toolbar is not displayed.
I'm convinced your code works as designed.
Let us know your PBO module and code.

NEED HELP!!! Sustain pedal screwing up the tuning of midi instruments.

Is there a a way to restore Logic to its original factory default setting. I have messed with a setting somewhere and when I play 2 instruments (2 different channels) at the same time everything goes fine until I press the sustain pedal. I have looked all over for the reason but can't find anything. I have also reset midi settings in Logics preferences. PLEASE HELP!!!

Mid quarter depreciation without setting the mid period

Hello All,
Thank you for taking time to read my question.
When AA went live, half monthly data for the company code was not maintained (while it should have been maintained 15 as the mid period). Since the half period is not configured, I am not able to set the mid month setting in OAVH. Now the taxes are calculated with an additional 15 days when specifying mid quarter when using period method control 005. The company code went live last year October and SAP will not allow updating the mid period from blank to 15.
Have anyone dealt with such a situation? I planned on defining a new period control key and assign it to a custom period method control. But still not able to get the depreciation value correct to the mid quarter.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
AM

What do you mean without mid period setting? Is this OAVH? Anyway, you can try this.
Use of Half Months in the Company Code
In this step, you determine the company codes in which you want to use half periods. In this way, you can calculate depreciation in these company codes on the basis of half months or half periods. Using this method, you can work with 24 periods in Asset Accounting, although the fiscal year version in Financial Accounting has only 12 normal periods (without using a different fiscal year version for Asset Accounting).
You should be aware, however, that the specifications for periods in the transactions in Asset Accounting (such as, useful life) have to be based on whole periods (12).
Example
Half periods are, for example, necessary to represent the "mid quarter/month rule". This is a version widely used in the U.S.A. With this rule, it is important for the determination of depreciation whether an acquisition takes place in the first or the second half of a period.
Caution
When you specify the use of half periods in the definition of an asset company code, half periods are automatically specified in all other company codes that use this fiscal year version.
You cannot use half periods with non-calendar fiscal months.
You cannot take back the use of half periods once the specification has been made. It is noted internally by the system in the asset master records.
Requirements
The number of the posting periods in the fiscal year version used must correspond to the number of calendar months (12).
Activities
1. Specify the use of half periods by entering the date (for example, the 15th) for the middle of the period for the company codes.
2. If you have defined period controls yourself
(see Period Control),
you must provide for the use of half periods in their assignment rules. For monthly and quarterly periods, corresponding period controls have already been created as standard in the system.
Thanks!
