Sysex dump not affecting external synth

I'm having a surprising amount of trouble finding the answer to something so simple. I have an external synth controllable via SysEx commands (a Yamaha FB-01 specifically) and I want it to load/select a particular set of non-default instruments whenever a given project loads.
Loading and selecting instruments works just fine through use SysEx Librarian, so it's not the hardware or the connection at fault.
I have the synth set up using the external synth plugin, and I can send MIDI data to it for playing notes in real time just fine. Adding SysEx info to the arrange window on this track just doesn't seem to do anything. Have I got the set up incorrect? Logic seems to be able to record dumps correctly, just not send them.
A related bonus question; Is SysEx data low-latency enough that it can be used to automate parameters of the synth, such as changing an oscillator's properties in real time?
Thanks very much in advance.

I'll take the bonus question: a simple Note-On event is 3 bytes long. This takes 960ms and of course considered real-time. Sysex events are longer: 7 bytes or longer, depending on the device for a single parameter. You can do the math for you device... Warning: some SysEx dumps can be several KB large - that is clearly no longer real-time!

  • Is it possible to boot windows solely from an external hard drive so that it does not affect the internal drive

    Is it possible to boot windows solely from an external hard drive so that it does not affect the internal drive. I already know that you can partition the internal hard drive to do the very same. Idon't want to use any of the internal space to run windows so I'm asking if it is possible to use a flash drive or external drive through USB to run windows when it is plugged in.

    Read https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5043762?start=0&tstart=0 to discover you can't do it.

  • Sysex dumps

    Logic express 9
    I have an old Yamaha V50 with lots of old songs on it. Currently I am recording all the midi from the sequencer and then splitting by channel. This works fine but it is a bit laborious.
    The V50 will transmit sysex dumps of the sequencer data - is there any way in which I can 'dump' this sysex data directly into logic and then carry out the various splits etc?
    Tia

    I guess (but not sure about it) that Sysex dumps won't work for you in this way, because Sysex is usually used for transmitting system parameters or banks of sounds.
    However, you synth must have a 3.5 inch disk drive. Does it work? If so, you can save your songs as midi files to a 3.5 diskette (as midi files are not bulky, you can save dozens of songs to one diskette actually). After that, just find an old pc which would have both 3.5 inch disk drive and a CD-RW drive or USB port and transfer your songs to a CD or a pendrive. That of course is only possible if your synth's disk drive is still operational. If not, recording is your only option I'm afraid.

  • Photos does not support external editing like iPhoto. Is there likely to be an upgrade to change this or will I abandon Photos for software that does support editing in Photoshop?

    Photos does not support external editing like iPhoto. Is there likely to be an upgrade to change this or will I abandon Photos for software that does support editing in Photoshop?

    iPhoto does work and there is an upgrade:
    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • Recording audio from an external synth - please help!

    Hi
    I have an Alesis audio/midi firewire interface and a korg triton and in logic i have recorded the midi data and now need to record the audio into an audio track.
    I solo the midi track and arm the audio track for recording, i have set the audio track for input 1 and when the midi notes are played the audio track responds so i know there is a signal but when i hit record, the midi track plays and the metronome sounds as it goes along but nothing is recorded!
    Please could someone tell me what i am doing wrong??
    Thanks in advance
    Nick

    So let me clarify what I think you are wanting to do. Are you wanting to control the External Synth with the MIDI data coming out of Logic and then running the audio from the Synth back into Logic as an audio track?

  • HELP???? external synths.... NI absynth ?????

    has any 1 used external synths... im thinking of buying NIS absynth 5 or massive and although the demo lets me use the it in key strokes. when i burn the tune to disc there not there ... A. im i jus doing some thing wrong ????? . B. is it because its a demo and the full version works?????? or C. does it not burn with logic ????

    Might be the demo version...it should be clear what you can do in the text document(or smthng like that) in the folder than includes the demo...downloaded from NI...
    The full versions work perfect!!

  • Using an external synth, want to route audio visibly in logic

    Hey
    So - in the early days of logic 5.5 i distinctly remembering that i had external synths, which i routed through logic, so that i could 1) Pick a midichannel that gave me the corresponding channel on the synth (like part 1), and 2) I could see a visible fader, with the EXACT same look and options on it, as any normal audio channel. Ie. i could put plugins on it, and so on.
    however, ive gotten a Waldorf Blofeld af my first external synth, for use with my logic pro 8, and while i can play it using a midi keyboard, and i can see a channel for it, then the channel that it creates, is sort of a fader, with only pan settings, and rev + chorus. Ie. i cant record it, i cant use plugins on it. Furthermore ( but this may be a problem with a setting on my soundcard ? (a motu 828mkII if anyone happens to know how to fix it ) when i pan the reverb it doesnt pan at all, the sound stays in stereo. The volume fader however works fine.
    So my question is: Can someone - please- explain to me, how to set it up "fully". Meaning a guide to creating the multi instrument ( as im guessing it should be ) and linking that to an audio channel in my environment, which i can then record, and use plugins on?
    I sincerely hope for a fast and hopefully correct answer as this has been bugging me for two days now. Ive read alot of stuff in the manual, but cant figure it out.

    You distinctly remember wrong (or at least, you're forgetting how you did it). A MIDI track has a MIDI channel strip, an audio object has an audio chanel strip that passes audio and can have audio plugins on it. You can't have one MIDI track with audio processing, as MIDI has nothing whatsoever to do with audio.)
    What you probably did before is had a MIDI track feeding your MIDI instrument, but then had it's audio coming back into your audio interface and coming up in the mixer in realtime using an "Input" audio object.
    however, ive gotten a Waldorf Blofeld af my first external synth, for use with
    my logic pro 8, and while i can play it using a midi keyboard, and i can see
    a channel for it, then the channel that it creates, is sort of a fader, with only
    pan settings, and rev + chorus
    Yes, that's a channel strip for MIDI instruments - nothing to do with audio, it sends MIDI volume, pan and other GM messages over MIDI to control remote MIDI devices.
    So my question is: Can someone - please- explain to me, how to set it up "fully".
    Meaning a guide to creating the multi instrument ( as im guessing it should be )
    and linking that to an audio channel in my environment, which i can then record,
    and use plugins on?
    If you specifically need multitimbral output, then you should create a multi instrument in the environment, set up to the MIDI ports/channel, and create arrange tracks for each of the (up to) 16 parts.
    (The External Instrument plugin isn't much good for multitimbral or multioutput instruments).
    That handles the MIDI side. Now, you want to bring that instrument's audio back into Logic's mixer, so plug the audio into your audio interface, either in stereo, or more channels if you have them to spare. Then you can either create Audio Input objects, or use regular audio tracks in input monitor mode, to add the audio coming in from the instrument in realtime to the mix, where you can also process with plugins etc.
    Note that you won't be able to offline bounce with real instruments, as Logic can't speed up the universe to faster than realtime...

  • Recording knob and slider movements from an external synth in a good way

    How do I record the knob and fader movements made on an external synth into Logic in a good way?
    I have managed to do it but Logic writes a new region over the top of the region containing my midi notes. When I stop recording the new region which contains the CC data disappears behind the region containing the midi notes.
    On top of this, once I've moved the regions around so I can select the one containing the CC data I can't see anything for it in the Hyper editor (though I know the changes have been recorded as it plays back.)
    Any guidance would be much appreciated.

    I often make a duplicate of my Midi track/Software Instrument track (assigned to the same Audio object - standard KC for this is shift+Return) beneath the original track and then record fader and knob movements on the duplicated track.
    In the Piano Roll->view->Hyper Editor select Modulation/Pitch bend or "Other" and choose a Midi Controller number frome the menue which opens, the selected Controller (e.g.#21) will be displayed underneath the Piano Roll and you can edit it with your pointer/pencil/Eraser tool.

  • Stuck notes from external midi device

    I just started using Logic today for the first time. I hooked up a MOTU midi express XT as an interface between my MacBook Air and a Proteus Orchestral synth (old rack model). Also hooked a FATAR keyboard (controller) to the interface. Everything shows up fine in the audio / midi setup windows. I was able to figure out how to set up several tracks in Logic pointing to the multiple channels on the external midi device (synth). So far, so good. But when I started recording the tracks I ran into stuck notes from the synth. I've had this in the past on other sequencing software and don't remember how to solve it? In addition, while recording the tracks from my keyboard controller notes would occasionally not play, almost like there was a memory / cpu problem.
    Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    In case you need to get back the default Logic control surface setup you can delete the Control Surface preference file and the default file will be rebuilt. It's a good way to get back to Logic's initial control surface setting. Also, if you had chosen to edit the Logic Remote CS entry instead of remove it there are adjustments that can be made, like disabling Active Sensing, or even disabling "Flash Mute and Solo Buttons" on the basic Control Surface Preferences pane.
    Deleting the Logic 10 Control Surface Prefs.
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
    Type ~/Library/Preferences  in the "Go to the folder" field.
    Press the Go button.
    Delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
    Note: to get to the User-Library the tilde ~ has to be included.        ~/Library/Preferences

  • Using the firebox/ to record an external synth via audio outs and a USB Mic

    I have the following set up:
    firebox Firewired to the QuaD.
    ALL audio in and out is PRESONUS FIREBOX
    in GB prefs/sound/audio midi utility
    will i be able to record vocals with the USB samson
    and add
    an external synth coming in to channels 1/2 in the front of the Firebox 1/2 channels
    and ofcourse use GB as the recording studio and use this all together.
    the outs in the back of the Firebox go to a minidisc whose audio outs go to monitors so that i can record what i do in case genius strikes me fiddling around
    as we all do.
    so 1 Firebox, Firewire, Samson Mic ( USB ) GB 08 , minidisc, monitors
    with all drivers to PResonus together.
    i notice in audio midi i needed to change to device not mac to rid static
    Is this a plausible set up?
    can this work:
    The synth is taking up 1 real track ( i set monitor on and mono presonus track )
    the samson mic is taking up another real track
    can i hear record the synth and sing at the same time with them on both tracks
    Chris said use aggregate in the midi audio
    i do not understand how to do that and what that means?
    would someone be kind enough to explain this?
    please take it a step at a time.
    i essentially want everything working at the same time
    external synths/usb mics/Gband/external recording/monitors
    using the presonus firebox
    thanks for your time
    bless u all
    someone mentioned using aggregate in the audio midi utility.

    Funny you should say that. It used to work fine, then suddenly last night it stopped working in the line-in jack. It's crazy, I'm not sure what the deal is, still trying to figure out what happened.
    Cheers,

  • Using an external synth like the KORG SD50 with GB3

    (for the veterans of synth sequencing etc )
    been researching getting a keyboard ( not just a midi controller which is what i have now ) but one that has modern sounds and i can play (also ) without having the computer on. If i have GB recording since there is no midi out there is no syncing and so if i wish to record some of the sounds of the external synth it will need to be on a real track ( audio in ) as if it were a voice a guitar etc..
    The KORG S50 which has wonderfully expressive programs/combos that arpegiate some with drum beats bass. In other words when the key is struck the drum beat starts or a bass might play and a musical phrase is played with a back up beat/rhythmic sound. So if i run the count down of GB3 i assume that i can play the external device in time with GB's sequencer or can I? If its not midi then will it sync to the proper time if i record it onto a real track? In other words will GB3 allow a recording of an external instrument that has its own timing? I hope im clear here.

    im afraid HT is right again
    midi yes will work but GB has no midi out
    you cant have two time clocks in GB
    and you cant have midi sync
    and you cant have midi out
    i have found that audio loops thrown in to GB pieces if not too long seem to work fine
    IM bummed here because i want to use a korg X50 which has arpeggiated wonderful voices/programs/combis that have their own groove tempo. This cannot work with GB unless you audio in the sequence but it wont sync up in GB.
    im waiting to here if LExpress will do this & if so im gonna have to hit the learning curve my wallet and change my attitude!

  • How do I create custom patch lists for external synths?

    Hello peeps, I'm a long-time Cubase user trying out Logic for the first time. This is driving me crazy. Just want to know how to make Logic show synth patches for a JP 8000, an MS 2000, MC 505, or any other external synth; so that I can see, in Logic, the patch I want a certain synth to switch to. I've tried in the environment to name a few, but I don't know where to input the MSB, LSB, Program change info. Its right there in the inspector window in Cubase. How do I do this in Logic? I'm stumped.

    "Example: In my RS 7000 Fat Bass 1 is MSB 063, LSB 007, PC 007. How do I enter that in Logic?"
    That's the problem: you don't. Or I couldn't, not in the rational way you're (quite rationally) suggesting.
    If you go to the Environment window and create an external multi-instrument and double-click its header (title) bar, you'll see a drop-down menu for Bank, and another for Bank Message. I had to experiment with the Bank Message possibilities, because the Roland manual says Bank Select is "controller 0, 32" and LE8 makes you choose between those two (or choose the method of some similar product, though the similar ones aren't very similar to each other!). Pick a plausible one, and then initialize a bunch of banks in the Bank menu and see what sounds your keyboard produces. Try to match those up, by ear, with the sound banks listed in the manual for your external synth. When you find a Bank Message/Bank pair that produces something recognizable, try other banks and see if they fall into line also. If not, try again with a different Bank Message choice.
    Once you find a Bank Message that produces reasonable results with several Banks, then you start double-clicking patch names within each bank and typing in names. It's a really stupid process. If there's a better one, I couldn't find it.
    On the good side, once you've got the banks of patches all set, the whole package is transferable from one project to another through the Import Environment menu item. Which means, by the way, that you might want to do all this in a new, blank project that contains nothing but your external multi-instrument environment item.
    Good luck--meaning I hope you had better luck than I did. It took several hours. If you want a bright side: it sure familiarizes you with all the sounds in your synth.

  • Calendar Server user can not receive external invites

    Hi,
    We have a MacPro running ML Server 10.8.5 with 10 user accounts using the calendar and file server services.
    Calendar server is where the issue is. We have 10 + users that are set up to send and receive external invites in calendar server without a problem. Recently, one of the user accounts stopped receiving external invites. The problem began not long after I set up a second account for the same user for their shared calendars (they requested this so all shared cals were not on their iOS devices). Although I used a separate email, it was an alias of the first so may have caused a conflict / problem (?). I got rid of the second account with no change to the first. 
    The account still receives invites from the other internal user accounts and the other services such as file sharing are unaffected. There are no other problems with the functionality of that user, in calendar or otherwise.
    I have tried changing the email associated with that user account and setting up a new test user account (in Server). The email invite will still not come through.
    I have changed it back to the way it was originally.
    Summary
    One of 10 user accounts does not receive external invites
    Was working until recently
    The account can send invites to external addresses
    Same email address will not work even when associated with a different account
    I have included a large section of the calendar error log from the part that references the email address (in red) attached to the user account in question. Apologies, I am not familiar with deciphering this information. That is why I've come here.
    Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

    Thanks so much for your comment ~morgen.
    Sorry, I should have mentioned, that it what my first thought so I tested by ensuring the email address associated with the user account (not hosted on the server but by Google Apps) is recieving all other mail.
    I have also tried:
    - Setting all accounts (calendar, email and contact card with associated email address) in another local user on a defferent Mac. So it's not a local user or Mail app issue.
    - Sending invites from different Calendar apps and email accounts - iCloud, Gmail (both using Apple Calendar and the web interface).
    That's why I came back around to thinking it must be calendar server related. However is there is absolutly no conntact with the server with incoming email invites I must be looking in the wrong place (and the wrong forum - sorry!).
    Does anyone have any ideas where I should be focusing my efforts?
    Many thanks in advance.

  • Can not select external input for sound

    can not select external input for sound

    Hey there RoosterMonkey,
    It sounds like you have Soundtrack Pro installed but you cannot select your external audio device as an input. I recommend the troubleshooting steps from the article named:
    Soundtrack Pro 3: Troubleshooting Basics
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3659
    Update to the latest software versions
    From the Apple () menu, choose Software Update and make sure that you have the most recent updates for your versions of Soundtrack Pro 3, QuickTime, Compressor, Pro Application Support, and other important system files. Installing the latest updates ensures that your software has the latest improvements and enhancements.
    Note: Be sure the application is in the Applications folder and is named Soundtrack Pro before running Software Update.
    Check compatibility and driver versions for third-party devices
    If you're using a third-party sound card, MIDI interface, storage system, control surface, or plug-in, check the support area on the manufacturer's website to be sure that you're using the latest version of the relevant driver or other software for your product. For information on troubleshooting possible issues with Audio Unit plug-ins, go to Soundtrack Pro 3: Troubleshooting Audio Unit plug-in issues.
    Try a different Multitrack Project or Audio File Project
    Sometimes project files can become damaged, causing unexpected behavior in Soundtrack Pro. To create a fresh project, choose File, then New and select Multitrack Project or Audio File. Test to see if the issue is resolved in the new project.
    Delete the User Preferences
    You can resolve many issues by restoring Soundtrack Pro to its original settings. This will not impact your project files. To reset your Soundtrack Pro user preference settings to their original state:
    Quit Soundtrack Pro if it is open.
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu bar.
    Type ~/Library/Preferences  in the "Go to the folder" field.
    Remove the "com.apple.soundtrackpro.plist" file from the Preferences folder.
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
    Type ~/Library/Application Support/Soundtrack Pro  in the "Go to the folder" field.
    Remove the "EffectsCache.plist" file from the Soundtrack Pro folder.
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
    Type ~/Library/Application Support/Soundtrack Pro/Layouts  in the "Go to folder" field.
    Remove the "Soundtrack Pro.saved.moduleLayout" file from the Layouts folder.
    In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
    Type ~/Library/Caches in the "Go to folder" field.
    Remove the "com.apple.audiounits.cache" from the Caches folder.
    Remove receipts and reinstall Soundtrack Pro 3 and Compressor
    Another approach you might consider is reinstalling Soundtrack Pro and Compressor. To do this effectively, you need to remove the applications and their receipts, then install Soundtrack Pro and use Software Update to install additional updates. Compressor gets installed automatically when you install Soundtrack Pro. You don't have to remove everything that was installed with Soundtrack Pro, so follow the steps below to completely reinstall a fresh copy of Soundtrack Pro. Note: Make sure that you have your installation discs handy before beginning.
    In Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard or OS X Lion
    Open the Terminal application and enter the following commands one at a time and an administrator password when prompted. Note: The commands are case sensitive.
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.Compressor
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.Qmaster
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.VideoOutSupport
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.PSTSharedA
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.AppleHDVCodec
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.AppleIntermediateCodec
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.DSPPublishing
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.SoundtrackPro
    sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.Uncompressed422
    Then, reinstall Soundtrack Pro and Compressor using the following steps:
    Open the Applications folder. Drag the Soundtrack Pro and Compressor applications to the Trash.
    Insert your Logic Studio or Final Cut Studio installation disc and install Soundtrack Pro.
    When finished installing, choose the Apple () menu, then Software Update to update your software to the latest version.
    Open Soundtrack Pro to verify that the issue has been resolved.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling
