Ultrabeat logic express 8

Hi there
I recently posted a topic about logic express 8 drums and got no reply,maybe i should have mentioned ultrabeat Anyway i just want to assign channel strips to the drum parts i.e Kick main,snare 1/2 etc.On the ultrabeat interface i know how to select the drum parts,then what do i do?
Just completely forgotten!!
Cheers Cal

Maybe nobody answered to our previous post because this is LE7 forum and not LE8!
BTW, you have to open the Multi version of Ultrabeat and the complete procedure is well described here: LogicExpress_8_Instruments_andEffects.pdf.

UltraBeat, ESX Library in Logic Express 8?

I'm thinking of getting Logic Express, and upgrading to Studio later if I like it. I know that one of the big features of Logic Studio over Express is the much larger studio library. I have a good collection of soft synths/instruments (Native Instruments Battery 3, Massive, Absynth, Reaktor, and FM8) already. I was thinking about getting NI's sampler, Kontakt, but with Logic Express and Studio on the market for such good prices, I'm thinking of getting Logic (and thus EXS24) instead.
I was playing with Logic Express at the nearby Apple Retail Store and was quite impressed with what I saw available for UltraBeat and EXS24. But then I realized that Logic Studio was installed on the same machine and I was probably getting the full studio library, which made it hard to compare the differences between Express and Studio (in this particular aspect).
I haven't been able to find any details on the general size of the ESX library in Express. In the Studio pages, it says "The Studio Sound Library includes an enormous collection of 1300 pristine-sounding EXS sampled instruments."
Does anyone know how the Express library compares? I'm not looking for a huge sample library right now, but I can't find any specs at all. The Instruments pane on Apple's Logic Express page only says that EXS is a sampler, but nothing about the library. Are you satisfied with what's included in LE8? Are there enough instruments for real use, or does it feel annoyingly limited like some other 'Lite' / 'Express' packages?
Thanks,
J.Shell

Hi,
The EXS24 library has to be larger in Pro simply because the samples they use in the online demo don't exist in Express 8. Express 8 has the same library as Express 7 but Express 8 has the full EXS24 sampler and not just the player. Since you're clearly a big synth user though I should tell you that the EXS24 library in Express does include a large collection of analog and digital synth samples. The only synth you get with Pro 8 that doesn't also come with E 8 is sculpture but that's one **** of a synth! Pro also has the Vintage instruments (B3, rhodes, clav) and the aforementioned Jam Packs. However You already have a huge sound arsenal in the native instruments stuff so you may not need the Pro extras. Probably the main thing you will have to decide is whether or not you need the film sinc, live performance, and surround sound capabilities of Pro. Pro also has a few more pluggins most of which are related to surround sound or mastering and its cd burning options are more advanced.
Hope this helps

Is there a step sequencer for drum patterns in logic express?

I was wondering is there a step sequencer for doing drum beats in logic express? It would be much easier if there were, that way I wouldn't have to record it and then try and fix my beat in the matrix editor. I believe that there is a step sequencer included with ultrabeat but I know that that is only with logic pro.

The latest issue of Sound on Sound covers how to do this with the Hyper Editor.
http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/mar06/articles/logictech.htm
That link will only work if you're a subscriber, until SOS declassifies it for everyone in six months.
The GM method will work for something that's GM compatible, and you can use this method to create your own custom version for any other drum instrument you want. It's pretty sweet. The gist of it is you create a mapped instrument in the environment, cable it to your audio instrument of interest, rename the notes to whatever drum/percussion sound they match (if needed), create a MIDI region with one note each, then make a hyper set out of it.
It seems like a lot of steps, but it's pretty simple once you've done it once, and you end up with a very flexible step sequencer-like editor. You can repeat these steps to make editors that are customized for any instrument plugin you like.

Jam Band for logic express? Drum Fills

Hello, I am working with a Logic 8 instructional video, Jam Band is being used to set up loops and fills. Does anyone know if that was part of logic
express, Also are there any Drum Fills ( can't find them) with Garage band loops or Logic Express, Thanks so much,
Troy

Battery is not a sequencer. It does not store patterns, you have to do that in your Logic track. There are tons of samples arranged in kits from recorded samples to electronic drum kits and even special effects kits.
Reading all of your posts, to be honest Ultrabeat sounds to be exactly what you want. To get that you need to upgrade to Logic Pro.
Do a search Google for "Logic Pro Ultrabeat" you will find info from various sources that will help you decide.
In Ultrabeat you can load sounds, create sounds by synthesis or samples, create patterns then put the pattern directly into a Logic software instrument region

What would I gain by going to Logic Pro or Logic Express.

I am a current power user of Garage Band (funny huh?) and I have figured out ways around a lot of things. Most my material are samples with vocals. I am doing dance music and want to step up. But will I really be gaining anything. I do not use midi. I just want the ability to timestrech vocals to fit beats and that sort of thing. Should I go to logic express or jump right into logic pro?
What can pro do that express cannot?
thanks, technoreid

You can find a brief feature comparison on Logic Express' page. This will give you an overview of what Express can and cannot do. If all you are doing is time stretching audio to fit already made beats, then Express may be what you need. You can do some beat composing with Express, but you won't have plug-ins such as Ultrabeat. If you can get by with the EXS-P and perhaps the Remix Tools Jam Pack, you can come up with some pretty good stuff in Express.
And like Stash put it: if you need more, you can always upgrade.

How to create an ABAP Query with OR logical expression in the select-where

Hi,
In trying to create an ABAP query with parameters. So it will select data where fields are equal to the parameters entered. The default logical expression is SELECT.. WHERE... AND.. However I want to have an OR logical expression instead of AND.. how can I attain this??
Please help me on this.. Points will be rewarded.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Question Man

Hi Bhupal, Shanthi, and Saipriya,
Thanks for your replies. But that didn't answer my question.
Bhupal,
You cannot just replace AND with OR in an ABAP QUERY. ABAP QUERY is a self generated SAP code. You'll just declare the tables, input parameters and output fields to be displayed and it will create a SAP standard code. If you'll try to change the code and replace the AND with OR in the SAP standard code, the system will require you to enter access key/object key for that particular query.
Shanthi,
Yes, that is exactly what need to have. I need to retireve DATA whenever one of the conditions was satisfied.
Saipriya,
Like what I have said, this is a standard SAP code so we can't do your suggestion.
I have already tried to insert a code in the ABAP query (there's a part there wherein you can have extra code) but that didn't work. Can anybody help me on this.
Thanks a lot.
Points will be rewarded.

Dynamic Logical Expressions in ABAP: IF (lt_cond)...

is it possible to have a dynamically constructured logical expression?
I have a condition I need to use in an IF, but I want to avoid hard-coding, so I dynamicallybuild it.
for a simple example:
CONCATENATE ITAB-f1
 'EQ'
 varValue
 INTO lt_cond SEPARATED BY SPACE.
IF (lt_cond).
WRITE:/ 'Success'.
ENDIF.
Is it possible to do this?

I am trying to use the macro to check an IF (cond).
cond is a dynamically constructed condition.
The bold part of my code way below is my problem area.
I'm having no trouble getting COND constructed. But I am having trouble between my macro and the processing as my error always tells me I'm calling my macro without 2 actual parameters. Or when I DEFINE my macro with &1 instead of &1 &2, I get 'incorrect logical expression'.
I've read all the documentation I can find on this, but i still cannot figure out why my macro is not processing.
Code is lengthy, but if you can, please help.
I'm anticipating the output to be 'FAILURE' at this point. I just want the condition COND to be processed.

Logical expression( = , =, , ) in read statement

Hi All,
Is it possible to use the logical expressions like (<= , >=, <, >) in the read statement?

While you can only use "=" with the READ statement, you can use the READ statement to position the cursor at the first record you want and then use the LOOP with your operators to get only those records you want (assuming standard tables that have been correctly sorted). This can be very efficient.
There have been many discussion about this in the forums. Please search and you'll see them.

Logical expressions in Link editor

Hi all,
Is it possible to define logical expressions (using AND, OR) in the Link editor of BLS or are we left with only using the Conditional Action block? Thanks...

Yes it is.
For AND : <<Condition1>> && <<Condition2>>
For OR : <<Condition1>> || <<Condition2>>
You can use the double ampersand (&&) for AND and double pipe (||) for OR

Help! Logic Express 8 does not work on my Mac Pro with OS 10.5.1

Hello, I hope somebody around here is able to help me.
I have got a new Mac Pro with one Quad core processor since yesterday and it works fine except for Logic Express 8 (version 8.0.1). Whenever I start Logic the program crashes as soon as "Core Audio initialisieren" is shown in the display. I have tried to reinstall the program, deleted it completely and installed it again. It is always the same.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? What can I do about it? I am a musician and I really need Logic Express to run.

Confused. 10.6 is DVD based. Only Lion and above are downloads.
And best install is not to upgrade. Do a clean install - on another drive.
Corrupt partition tables or bad sectors or no room to adjust the partitions or the directory is corrupt.
ERASE the drive if Repair Disk didn't work.

Loops in Logic Express

First of all I best say that I am new to Logic Express and Garageband, in fact the Mac thing so forgive the basic nature of this post. I have had some funny goings on with my mac since a failed software install so I decided to rebuild everything including the OS. Having re-installed Garageband and Logic Express I find most of the loops are missing. Some are there but all drum loops and others have gone. I tried to look up options to see if there is a tick box to install them but nothing. If I look in library, the loop directory is also missing. Can anyone suggest anything?
Thanks
Tetleyted

Thanks for the reply. took a look but the directory structure as follows: HD/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/User Loops (Apple doesn't exist. I have a feeling that garageband and Logic Express hasn't completed the install. I have tried to re-run it but the same thing happened - no loops. Any suggestions welcomed.

Some organs don't play in new Logic Express files after JamPacks installed

After loading only the instruments from the Symphony Orchestra and World Music GarageBand Jam Packs, I lost the ability to hear most of the organs available in Logic Express and all of the organs available in GarageBand after inserting them into Logic Express tracks. These same organ sounds still play in any Logic Express file set up prior to the installation of the JamPacks and they continue to play in GarageBand. Can an uninstall/reinstall of Logic Express 7.2.3 be a fix for this or is there an easier way to return the lost instruments to Logic Express?
1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8) Midisport 4x4, iControl

The loss of instrument sounds in Logic Express had nothing to do with the installation of GarageBand JamPacks. The midi channel setting in the Inspector box of the Arrange window in Logic Express needed to be set to channel 1 to get midi data from other than channel 1 to play some of the inserted CoreAudio instruments. I don't understand what's going on but now I'm able to get the instruments that would not play.

How to connect my Alesis to Logic Express Pro, running on an Intel Mac Mini

Hi,
would anyone possibly have an idea how to connect my Alesis Multimix 8 USB to Logic Express 7,2?
The Alesis has a USB out. But I don't see anything in the L/E documentation on USB connections.
I'm hopeful there's another way.
Thanks very much.
-peter

LE documentation won't give instructions for use of 3rd party equipment, except possibly generically.
Have you downloaded the latest drivers? If it is a USB item, perhaps you are meant to plug in the USB cable rather than wishing it was something else.
