Sidechaining of 3rd party plugins in Logic 7

I would love to know if there is a way of sidechaining 3rd party compressors (such as waves or sonalksis) in Logic 7.
The logic compressor allows you to sidechain via the drop-down sidechain menu but this is not available on any third party compressors that I have tried. (Even when the manufactures indicate that sidechaining is available with their products).
Does anyone know of a work-around or of any other compressors that allow sidechaining in Logic 7?

I recall some kind of work around or tutorial on the waves.com site for achieving this.
have a look

How can i get 3rd party plugins for logic such as massive or nexus?

how can i get 3rd party plugins for logic such as massive or nexus?

Buy the 64bit AU versions from their respective online stores...
Massive can be found at;

Nexus 2 (as Nexus 1 will not work with Logic Pro X) from;

However, I suspect, based on the fact you could have simply searched on Google.. that buying them wasn't what you had in mind.................

How do you install and delete 3rd party plugins from Logic 9?

I have been trying to install RX2 from iZotope with no success. I can authorize it in the standalone version but not in logic. I had a previous demo version of it installed and everytime I went to authorize it would point to the earlier version and not authorize and run in demo. I removed a number of files pertaining to it from HD & User/ Library/ Preferences and Audio/ Components and tried reinstalling. Now it doesn't even show up in the plugin list. Can anyone tell me how to clear this up? Also, how to deal with 3rd party plugins. What can I say, no problems with Reaper! Appreciate any help with this. Thanks

The Isotope website isn't very clear about it.. It seems to indicate the Windows version is 32 and 64 bit where as the AU version is 32bit and will work/is compatible with Logic 64bit.. which it will as it will run under the 32 to 64bit bridge... when Logic is run in 64bit mode..but as i said, it's hard to tell one way or the other.
The thing is, if you simply reinstall it.. and then run Logic first in 32bit mode and then in 64bit mode.. it should show up.
Where are you looking for it in Logic?
Does it show up in the AU Plugin Manager? (after, that is you have reinstalled it)

Can i "quick-import" my 3rd-party plugins from Logic 9 to Logic X?

Hey, I've used Logic 9 for a while now and have a bunch of 3rd party plug-ins -- is there a way to quickly import all these extra plug-ins into Logic X? Or do I need to manually install them all again?

Hi
As long as they ar e64bit AU plugins, LPX should find them automatically. If they are 32 bit plugs, you are out of luck (LPX only supports 64bit).

Groove Agent 2 (3rd party plugin) with Logic

Hi, I'm attempting to use Steinberg Groove Agent 2 (cool virtual drumbox) with Logic 7.1.0. (I saw a friend using them together via laptop on a gig, and I never had trouble using Spectrasonics Stylus with Logic so I assumed this should also work; I hope I wasn't dumb to try.)
GA2 required a Steinberg key, which is now authorized. Thanks to a thread here, I found preferences>Start Logic AU Manager and enabled the plugin. When I load GA2 into an Audio Instrument, it shows up onsceen and plays. So far so good.
Midi Output is enabled on GA2; this is supposed to allow a midifile of any GA drum pattern to be recorded into Logic. However, when I select the GA track in Logic and hit record, GA plays and Logic's meter flashes but Logic does not record midi data. (Of course Logic can record midi from my keyboard, but not from this plugin.)
1) What do I need to do to record midi data output from a plug-in, such as this GA2, in Logic?
GA2 manual suggests turning on the SysEx filter in the sequencer when running GA2, so that Run and Stop commands aren't written into the Midi part. (The midi part isn't recording to Logic yet, but: )
2) How do I turn on the SysEx filter on this Audio Instrument in Logic?
When I hit play in the Logic song, the GA2 starts playing. However, when I hit stop (key command, or mouse on stop) both Logic and GA2 often keep playing. (Of course without the GA2, Logic works fine.) Other mouse functions such as clicking mute buttons on the GA2 don't work reliably either.
3) Why would Logic or the plugin ignore the mouse or stop command? How do I need to change my setup?
Thanks for any help. I've used Logic for ten years, but Stylus was the only third party plugin I'd used & it was flawless.

I used to use GA2 on my PC (before I became a Mac user). Once I bought my Mac I got rid of my PC.
But the disc I have for GA2 has both the PC and Mac version on it, so it was working on my PC, but not on my Mac.
When I try to start it use it as a standalone on my Mac, it starts to load, then a message window appears and says: "No protection device is connected".
I never had this problem when I used to use it on my PC.

MULTI OUTS for 3rd party plugins in Logic Pro (8)

Hi All,
I am using Logic Pro 8 on a dual g5 Mac and am trying to use a multi-channel and multi-timbral software instrument Spectrasonics Stylus RMX 1.5. This worked fine in Logic 7 but now I only have output A (a stereo output) and cannot assign to Aux channels in the enviroment window. Has any one come across the same problem ?
Undergroundian

Update to RMX 1.6
It's for Logic 8 specifically.

Will my 3rd party plugins be detected by Logic X?

I have logic pro 9 right now, if I uninstall it and leave my 3rd party plugins be and then install Logic X, will Logic X be able to pick up these right away? obviously the 64 bit plugins/instruments.

thanks for the quick response

Will Lion work ok with Logic Pro and 3rd party plugins?

Will Lion OS work ok with Logic Pro and 3rd party plugins?
Any help would be much appreciated,
Regards James

Well, Sylenth I know... works under Logic Pro 9 and it should be found by left clicking and holding... the Software Insturment Button (The one just below where it says i/o and then scrolling down in the menu that appears to the Instrument section below the Apple Plugins...
I don't know about Massive 1.01 because i think that one is not Logic 9 compatible because it is so old.... and I have never used Vanguard... but according to it's specs the latest version should be found in the same place as Sylenth...
Both Sylenth and Vanguard are 32bit plugins...
...and.. it probably doesn't help that you are using older/not 'legal' copies of these plugins.... *ahem*

Flickering graphics in Logic - especially 3rd party plugins

I see a lot of people reporting (myself included) "flickering" of graphics in Logic, especially in 3rd party plugins so I decided to post a video of it occurring. Is this a "known issue"? I will be reporting it to Apple, and I hope everyone else experiencing it will do the same. Please watch the video and provide any input that you might have. Thanks!
https://youtu.be/y_G0Q8J2Egw

Hi Clancy,
Could it be related to a Retina display?
Possibly... but as you know, I cannot test for that as i don't have a Retina display... (and frankly I'm not sure I want one at this time ) and I could recreate it on a standard screen using the same 3rd party plugin as the OP used... so i think it isn't specifically a Retina issue but... maybe retina 'enhances' the problem because of the extra load placed on the Graphical hardware/routines
So...
Is the OP is using a Retina display with his Mac Pro?
I suspect however, given the video he posted, demonstrating the issue occurring with the PSP MasterQ2 plugin...that it's only happening with some 3rd party plugins.... (as again he stated "especially with 3rd party plugins" which really might mean... only with.. depending on how you 'translate' that) and therefore my comments earlier.
Finally while the number of posts about this issue is actually rather small ( as far as i can determine from some detailed searching at least).... the thread on GS seems to indicate it's been going on since early versions of LPX and is related to Yosemite rather than LPX itself...
https://www.gearslutz.com/board/logic-pro-x/987219-logic-10-1-0-crazy-flashing-g raphics-plugins.html
...and some people have been reporting the same sort of flickering issues with other 3rd party apps and also plugins for apps like Aperture for example... after upgrading to 10.10... again indicating its a general Yosemite issue rather than a specific app issue.

Logic 9 - 3rd Party Plugin Settings not rememebered

Is anyone else having these problems?
GearBox and PodFarm don't recall their settings after Logic 8 to Logic 9 upgrade, so compete mixes have GONE!!!!
Wave Burner does the same thing with 3rd Party Plugins!!!!! Ozone is not recalling anything.
This is REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY BAD!
I've lost weeks, months and in some cases YEARS of work on some projects.
Thanks Apple, lovely.

This is the wrong forum (because it is clearly not a general problem with AudioUnits), you should contact the plugin manufacturers!
I don't know GearBox and PodFarm, but Ozone is incompatible with a new feature in WaveBurner and needs an update.

3rd party plugins not working after archive and install

hi,
i have a few 3rd party plugins in my logic pro, such as all the native instruments, waves diamond, ik multimedia plugins, atmosphere and a few more,
i was getting an error on my g5 when i tried to run diskwarrior from the disk. it was the kernal panic message, it said i had to restart my mac, therefore i couldnt run diskwarrior from disk.
i did a bit of research and a few people suggested doing a archive install, so i did.
well what do you know, i had to re-install logic 8 again. other programmes such as transcribe, itunes idvd imovie etc were ok.
but logic didnt load up, o i had to re-install logic again,
also before i did that i checked to see if my 3rd party plugin were working in standalone, so i check all the native instruments and they seemed to work ok, T-racks deluxe works fine, so i thought they should all load up in logic.
once logic was installed again and had to get all the updates all my 3rd party plugins did not show up on my AU validation.
is there a way to get logic to see my 3rd party plugins or do i have to re-install all of them again.
cheers for the help
lib

Then check if the NI AU components are actually where they should be:
HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components
If not copy them over from your "previous systems" folder which was created on your HD during the archive and install process.

Sort 3rd party plugins by categories

Hi there,
If this has already been asked, my apologies, I haven't found an answer to it using the search engine.
Is there a way to sort 3rd party plugins by categories, like Logic's built-in plugs (Compressors, EQs, Delays, Reverbs, etc...)?
It would be much better to search the plugins by category than by manufacturer name, don't you think?
Again, sorry if this is an old question.
And thanks in advance.

The problem with organising your plugins into channel strips is that it works fine to load the complete channel strip, but obviously cannot be used to load individual plugins on a channel.
I would like to be able to organise/customise my plugin menu in the way that best suits me, including not having to scroll all the way down to the third-party list and so on - I agree that this way of loading plugins is pretty inefficient.
Unfortunately, while this is technically easier using a Mackie Control (because you can scroll through the plugins with a knob before clicking it to load that selected plugin) - it's also next to useless because the plugin list is seemingly random, meaning that each time you scroll to a new plugin, you have no idea whether this is going to be the one you want, or whether it will take another 53 knob turns before you get there.
The library is supposed to be the redeveloped solution for this, and while it helps to a degree I actually don't like wasting a quarter of the available screen space having it open, or hitting a key command to open and close it just to load plugins. But you can't load individual plugins from the library anyway - it's either channel strips, or plugin settings/instruments. There is no way to highlight the plugin slot and then see your plugin list - so we are back to the navigate through four sub menus dance to load a plugin.
So none of the current methods are particularly good, imo. I'd like to see something better. At the very list, a menu list of "Favourite Plugins" at the top of the menu list which you could organise and choose which plugins should go in there.
