Good to see i am not alone on this which i stumble upon a few months ago, where i just took a break on L.P. now I'm back at it.
So if the Legacy Space-Designer doesn't show up in L.P.8, should i take the folder from L.P.7 that says Space Designer settings, and the impulse responses,
and extract them onto L.P.8 where it says Space-Designer or should i just take the folder of S/P of L.P. 7 and dump them into the directory, or in the root directory on the main H.D.
Forgive for asking about this as Bee Jay tried explaining but i didn't quite get it, even though i kinda understand what he saying i guess I'm slow on this.
Thanks in advance Noqplease.

  • Space Designer Save Setting Problems

    Space Designer Save Setting Problems
    On the right side of the space designer you have "dry" and "rev" settings.
    On reopening the plug-in the dry setting switches back to zero, although I saved it at a different setting...
    Everytime, every project...

    Does it do this on audio/software instrument channels and aux channels?
    In general, when you load SD on an aux channel, Logic assumes it's going to be an FX return and so "helps you out" by setting the dry level to zero for you...
    On other channel types it should work as expected...

  • I have no space designer impulse settings

    Hi. I re-loaded Logic Pro 8, but now I have no Space Designer Impulse settings; also no master settings (Ld and Bkg Vocal settings; Mastering settings; etc...) what and where do I go to get these back? Thanks!!

    You need to delete things off your iPad.  You could delete apps you never use.  You could unsync pictures.  You could unsync music.  You could archive books.  Without knowing what you've got stored on you iPad, it's hard for anyone to tell you what to delete.

  • Trouble loading IR's in Space Designer

    Ever since i upgraded to Logic 8 there have been many Space Designer IR's that won't load. I finally took the time to figure out where they were and why they wouldn't load and now i'm even more confused. For example when i choose "Small Combo Spring" (small spaces> Spring Reverbs> Small Combo Spring) I'm prompted to manually locate the IR but when i do find the pst file it's not highlighted (I'm not able to select it). If i choose to load setting manually i can choose Small Combo Spring.pst but then i'm asked to locate Small Combo Spring .SDIR which can't find. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

    Two things - a Space Designer plugin settings file (*.pst) is not the same thing as an impulse file.
    The pst file simply contains the settings of Space Designer's GUI, and the path/name of the loaded IR file.
    Now, the Space Designer presets were altered, renamed and reprogrammed for LP8, and the impulse files are different. It may be that you have left the LP7 SD pst files on your system, but had the impulse responses replaced with the LP8 ones - hence, the LP7 ones won't load.
    If this is the case, you can reinstall the LP7 impulses from your LP7 disks. I'm not sure offhand whether these impulses are also in LP8's legacy content (I can have a look) but I'd recommend using Pacifist to extract the impulse files and place them where they need to be to have everything load correctly.

  • I am having trouble using reverb of any kind; it does not sound natural, but rather "pixilated." Does anyone have any ideas for a solution? I have used Silververb and Space Designer and am having the same problem...

    I am using Logic Pro 9 with two MXL 990 microphones in my piano and a Rode NT1A for vocals. I have tried recording with added reverb and keeping getting not a natural reverb sound, but a rather "pixilated" one that does not sound natural. Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this issue? I have tried using Silververb and Space Designer, and both result in the same problems. Thank you!

    This is asking for the impossible! It does not sound natural because maybe it isn't and in judging so whats your reference anyway. If you are in dire need of some natural sounding room you can go and record it yourself. But even then, the chances that it sounds like you imagined it, are very slim.
    There are very decent sounding reverberation plugins, based on artificial reverb generators or convolution-style, the last one is said to sound more 'natural' then the first one. Be it as it maybe, it really is like cooking food. You got all the ingredients for this delicious taste at hand and believe it or not to reach a satisfying result this is not enough, because if you do not mix the ingredients in the right proportion you will end up with a different dish you thought you'll get. This is exactly the same when one would mix audio, I dare say.
    So treat yourself to some good ingredients and the rest is up to you, namely: taste and experience!
    And looking at some of my past music productions I always find the same plugins for the 'ambient' task:
    Altiverb by Audio Ease when I have acoustic ensembles (classical music mostly), the Sony Oxford Reverb in studio productions, Bricasti when I have to deal with drums and MMultiBandReverb from MeldaProduction for all-round stuff. Thats the base I start from, after that I can end up with dozen Reverb plugins which basically all are doing the same thing but just in a tiny different way.

  • Space designer export problem

    Hi,
    I'm having a strange problem with space designer in that I'm trying to add a very faint, realistic reverb on a few tracks, which sound fine when I preview them in Soundtrack, but when I export the mix out there is this massive booming reverb like it's in a cave or something, regardless of what the Space Designer is set to. The problem goes away if I disable the space designer, but It'd really like to be able to use it.
    Has anyone encountered this issue before? Anyone know what might be the problem?
    Thanks

    Another way of wording the question that I originally asked;
    I recorded a ten second sine sweep. when I deconvolve I end up with a ten second impulse response. Is this normal? Do I now need to shorten the IR using space designer, or is it supposed to create a reverb tail automatically?
    If anyone out there knows this answer please let me know.

  • Problems with the Space designer

    Forgive my poor English on this, i don't really know how to explain this but:
    When i record a guitarpart with a delay made in the space designer, i hear 'cracks' in my headphones and on my monitors (looks like the sound when a recording is clipping but the input signal is low enough)
    When i play back the recorded part, or when i bounce it, i don't hear a thing.
    It's pretty annoying when your recording, because sometimes i start playing off-tempo because i get destracted to much by the cracks.
    Is there any solution to it, or is my computer just too slow?
    I'm running Logic Studio on a Macbook,1.83 Ghz, 2 gig ram, 250 gig hd, 5400 rpm.
    Should i try recording on my external 7200 rpm drive instead?

    What do you use for the arped delay? I can imagine if this is a stereo delay and the sound comes back at periods at the same time (because it is in tempo) it will crack at certain points some how (volume doubling). Maybe try to switch the phase on the delay one channel (if stereo). Still remains odd it doesn't crackle when you play it back though...

  • Space Designer Deconvolution Problem/Question

    Hi everyone. When I try to deconvolve my recorded sine sweep responses in space designer the result is just a wave file minus the sine sweep. In other words the resulting IR has no reverb tail. Is this normal? Do I have to then create a Reverb tail?
    Thanks

  • Space Designer Presets and Impulses... Gone?!

    I'm stymied...
    Been wanting to audition some Space Designer reverbs, but for some reason all of the presets were gone from the settings menu. I don't remember what I did exactly, but I found them and moved them into the SD settings folder somewhere on my system. And now I have all of my presets back. But...
    Every time I load one of the presets, Logic asks me where the .sdir file is for it.
    This never used to be a problem. Why it's different today is beyond me. But anyway...
    Can someone please tell me where .sdir files are supposed to be located? And also, just so I'm sure everything is where it should be, where should the SD preset settings live?
    -=iS=-

    Works perfectly.
    For some reason my impulse responses and settings were in two places:
    iSchwartz HD/Library/Logic/Impulse Responses
    ...and...
    ~/Library/Applications Support/Logic/Impulse Responses
    Weird...
    Anyway, thanks again.

  • Space Designer Plug-ins Not Loading

    Hi, whenever I try to select a Space Designer plug-in with Logic Pro 8, I get a pop up which says 'no audio file selected' and asks me to 'please locate the file'. I've checked the Logic folder within the Application Support folder of the Library, and all the .pst files are there in the Plug-In Settings folder, but when I navigate to them from the pop up they are greyed out, making it impossible to select them manually anyway. All the other Plug-Ins (Compressor, Reverb, etc) seem to work fine. The problem only appears to exist with Space Designer.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks
    Phil

    Hi, and thanks for the reply. I couldn't find the Impulse Response folder you mentioned, but just for information, the pop up prompts me to locate the file (for example) '01.4s Jazz Vocal Room.SDIR', and in the bottom pane of the pop up it says 'No Audio FIle Selected', probably because I haven't located and selected the file it's looking for.
    Thanks again

  • Match EQ, space designer and IRs

    Hi, I encounter a problem with Logic studio 9 when trying to make an IR out of the differences between a raw guitar amp (mine) signal and an amp/cab/mic signal (not mine ). I used Match EQ to copy the second signal, it sounds very well. Then I did two pink noise .wav files, with and without the previous Match EQ settings. I used them to decode an IR with space designer, but the result sounds like a 50% wet IR. Did I miss anything ?

    could you cobble something together? Maybe use aux objects set up with the same SD effect types. Send out appropriate levels of fx to each of the aux objects which will correspond to and output wet only signal to the bus/output objects carrying the surround components. I am not sat at my studio mac right now, so I can't think and speak specifically, but I remember trying something like this in an earlier version with some degree of success on a quadruphonic set up. Still a heath robinson way of doing something that should be a standard plugin in this day and age.

  • Space Designer -- none of the presets are working!  they are grayed out

    I am using a dual core iMac with logic 8 totally updated version but I've been having this problem with space designer and possibly a couple of the other logic played in effects. When I tried to pull up a preset it goes up a search for box I'm going to applications support/logic/played in settings and I tried to select the desired preset that it is asking for and I find that it is there but it is grayed out and it does not load up. Presently I can only use the default effect. Does anyone know how to fix this? This is frustrating!
    Thanks much!
    Help!

    That is correct your 4th gen iPod can't run any newer then 6.1.6
    If you wish use apps that require iOS 8 then you need a newer iPod that is capable of running it

  • Space Designer LP7 songs don't load in Space Designer LP8?

    Hi there, I recently replaced my entire system drive with a new one and installed Logic studio 8. I still have my old system drive but it's not connected to my Mac.
    I have been loading songs produced on LP7, when loading the songs ask me for the old Space Designer Impulse response FX presets. Now I assume since installing Logic 8, that the older Space designer stuff has been changed but surely they wouldn't have completely done away with it would they? How can I get a LP7 produced song's Space designer setup load in LP8?
    Thanks.

    Hi - I just wish to bring this one back to life:
    I was not aware that the Space Designer had maintained the L7 Legacy IR's and I'm keen to get them back too. I have the folder so I can see them all now but...
    I'm not sure how to get them to show up in the Space Designer preset menu. I know I can load them from the 'Load IR & Init' menu but this is slow as you have to locate the folder every time.
    How should I structure the user library in order to get the Legacy folder to show in the preset menu? I've tried a couple of options but it's not working.
    They are currently showing in:
    MacintoshHD/Library/Audio/ImpulseResponses/Apple/05LegacySpaces
    but do not show in the preset menu.
    On a related note I have the Spirit Canyon Audio IR's in:
    User/Library/Audio/ImpulseResponses/SpectralRelativity
    and would like these to show in the preset menu also. But currently I have to 'Load IR & Init' every time. Same problem maybe?
    Do you need some sort of 'preset/plugin' file in the menu that references the IR?
    Hope that all makes sense - help appreciated! Thanks

  • Space designer causes crash - any suggestions??

    Hello people
    I just started running logic 8 on a new imac and I have a big problem with space designer.
    Everything will be going sweet (well kinda). I open SD and things are still fine, but if I try to open any preset then it crashes. Complete freeze, have to force quite and try again...
    This also stops me from opening any of my old Logic 7 songs as I use SD on most tracks, so I guess that is what is causing it to hang...
    Any suggestions?
    I have tried trashing the prefs, but no joy still.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Cheers
    Justin

    Now tried the same thing on iPad and iPad Mini. Didn't work and not even my documents show on iPad. Very frustrating as can't use Pages at all. Apple need to sort this.

  • Space Designer tutorial ?

    Hi dears,
    i need to found Space Designer tutorial files, i need for sampling a room.
    Please help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, and the method I described allows you to make a sine sweep, defining the time of the sweep, and the start and end frequencies. It's in the test oscillator, there's a button you can press called sweep. Once you have set the settings, press the button that has x1 written on it. Guess what happens... A sine sweep! If, for some reason, you don't like that method, then all of Logic's synths can create sine waves, although it will be harder to get it to sweep fully as you need to define the pitchbending and then automate it. I'm not sure it the bender will go that far...
    Seriously, the way I described is the way to do it. I really suggest you have another try, as it will work.
