Using a Tablet with Logic 8

I was just given a Bamboo Pen and Touch and tried using it with Logic 8. Unfortunately they just don't seem to be communicating correctly and I've found that I can only move the cursor with the pen poorly and I cannot click on anything. Using fingers on the touch pad is similarly buggy. Any chance Anyone has experience with this and nows of an update or driver for this problem? Thanks

Sure ,and I'd love to have one(which i probably do when it comes out LOL) but definitely is not gonna cost the same as the Bamboo or replace my mouse that's not currently working

Good point. I saw the price for Bamboo pen and touch. Very cheap. You got me thinking now.
Found a good price at Amazon...I'm thinking that probably it won't let me do what my imagination believes I could...Draw the automation with the pen for example...LOL but maybe it could be possible.... why I can draw in Photoshop or Adobe products and not in Logic hehe
I saw this on YouTube which got me thinking of finding a cheap touchscreen instead

Just watched it ,it's great..but most of the good quality touch-screen monitors available are very expensive considering that the Tablet will be soon for sale and ....I can imagine the app developers will make amazing apps especially for that .If you find a good deal though give us a shout

Using usb mic with logic output stops

using usb mic with logic output stops

Aggregate devices are setup in the Audio/Midi setup of OSX Utilities, (Not in Logic). It gives you a way of having for than one audio i/o device. Once you have set up your aggregated devices in Audio/Midi, when you start Logic you will need to go into Audio preferences and choose the Aggregate device.

Can I use MainStage 2 with Logic Express 9.1.6

Is it possible to use MainStage 2 with Logic Express 9.1.6.? Are there any limitations to not having Logic Pro 9. I'm very happy with LE9.1.6. as it meets all my needs (perhaps with the exception of not having Space Designer) but if I need to upgrade to get the most out of MainStage 2 then I will.
Thanks.

Actually I have found a way for at least the instrument plug ins to be accessed.
I was able to set up an instance of Sculpture in MS2 and record it in LE using Soundflower.
Route the audio from MainStage to Logic and record onto an audio track in Logic as follows:
If not already installed, get SoundFlower. After installing it.
A) Setup the sound you want in MS2 and audio output to Soundflower (remember to Apply Changes or it does not hold).
B) In Logic Express set the audio input to Soundflower and create a new audio track for recording. Important: set Soundflower's audio output to however you listen to your audio or you won't hear anything.
C) Press RECORD and start playing, LE captures Mainstage's sound.
I have not tried to wire LE's output to MS2 to take advantage of Space Designer. but since this functions, I'm not sure why that couldn't work as well. It is still flipping though a few screens though...might just be easier to get Logic Pro from the App store....

Using a drawing tablet with Logic Pro, esp. for hyperdraw?

Is anybody using a drawing tablet, such as the Wacom Graphire 4, with Logic Pro? I am particularly interested to hear whether a tablet makes inputting hyperdraw data easier.
Thanx and cheers,
Vincent

Yeah, it changes everything — from selecting menu items, to turning knobs or moving sliders. You'll never go back... This is due to the fact that pointing and clicking are merged into one gesture, like playing a piano key takes care of selecting both the pitch and the velocity.
Be sure you get a small model though, not the big one that they use with Photoshop...
I find it indispensable whatever the kind of application I'm using, be it a text processor or an audio editor, whenever precise selection or action is required — to the point that I feel awkward when I'm forced to use a mouse.
By the way, people who are used to using trackballs feel the same — but this isn't true for track-pads.

Duplicate processing by DBAdapter when using Distributed Polling with Logical Delete Strategy

We have DBAdapter based polling services in OSB running across two Active-Active clusters (total 20 managed service across 2 clusters),
listening to the same database table. (Both clusters read from the same source DB). We want to ensure distributed polling without duplication,
hence in the DBAdapter we have selected Distributed Polling option, meaning we are using "Select For Update Skip Locking".
But we see that sometimes, same rows are processed by two different nodes and transactions are processed twice.
How do we ensure that only one managed server processes a particular row using select for update? We do not want to use the markReservedValue option which was preferred in older version of DBAdapter.
We are using following values in DB Adapter configuration, the Jdev project for DBAdapter and the OSB proxy using DBAdapter are attached.
LogicalDeletePolling Strategy
MarkReadValue = Processed
MarkUnreadValue = Initiate
MarkReservedValue = <empty as we are using Skip Locking>
PollingFrequency = 1 second
maxRaiseSize = 1
MaxTransactionSize = 10
DistributionPolling = checked (adds lock-n-wait in properties file and changes the SQL to SELECT FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED)
Thanks and Regards

Hi All,
Actually I'm also facing the same problem.
Step I follwed:
1) Created a job_table in database
create talbe job_table(id, job_name, job_desc, job_status)
2)created a bpel process to test the Inbound distributed polling.
3)Configure the DBAdapter for polling.
a)update a field in the job_table with logical delete.
b)select the field name form the drop down
c) change the read value-->Inprogress and unRead value--->Ready
d) dont change the value for Reserved value
e) select the check box for "distributed polling".
f) the query will be appended with "For update NoWait."
g)click next and then finish.
4) Then i followed the below steps.
To enable pessimistic locking, run through the wizard once to create an inbound polling query. In the Applications Navigator window, expand Application Sources, then TopLink, and click TopLink Mappings. In the Structure window, click the table name. In Diagram View, click the following tabs: TopLink Mappings, Queries, Named Queries, Options; then the Advanced… button, and then Pessimistic Locking and Acquire Locks. You see the message, "Set Refresh Identity Map Results?" If a query uses pessimistic locking, it must refresh the identity map results. Click OK when you see the message, "Would you like us to set Refresh Identity Map Results and Refresh Remote Identity Map Results to true?Ó Run the wizard again to regenerate everything. In the new toplink_mappings.xml file, you see something like this for the query: <lock-mode>1</lock-mode>.
5) lock-mose is not changed to 1 in toplink_mappingss.xml
Can we edit the toplink_mappings.xml manually.
If yes, what allt he values Ineed to change in toplink_mappings.xml file, so that it will not pick the same record for the multiple times in clustered environment.
Please help me out this is urgent.
Thanking you in advance.

Using a tablet with Photoshop CC

I'm using Photoshop CC with a Wacom Intuos tablet. I'm sort of inclined to think that the issue I'm having has more to do with a tablet setting than a Photoshop setting but I was using this same table with CS6 and I don't think I was having this problem but either way I'm sure I'm not the only one on this forum who's used a wacom tablet with Photoshop so hopefully somebody can help.
With the paintbrush selected if you press and hold with the Wacom pen then brush options appear in a floating box. Can I turn that off? It's screwing me up because anytime I want to draw just a short line or spec it seems to bring the options up and doesn't draw my line. I sometimes like to paint textures on whatever I'm working on by making several specs of various colour and layering them up, but those short specs are pretty much impossible cuz it doesn't seem to realize I want to paint unless the pen is moving a bigger distance.
Like I said, this seems like it's probably more of a Wacom issue than a Photoshop issue but I can't find any settings to change that seem like they would fix the problem. Anybody out there know how I can fix that?
Thanks!

I was having same problem using Photoshop cc and windows 8.1.
I first noticed when I was using clone tool. If I held down pen to start painting from clone source the dang circle appears with brush options.
Here's what I did to fix it.
Make sure your tablet is plugged in and working.
Go to Windows Control Panel
Select Hardware and Sound.
"Pen and Touch" should be listed, and select "Change Tablet Pen Settings".
A dialog opens. Look for the box that has the line inside that says "Press and Hold", and select that line.
Then press Settings button under box. This opens a new dialog box. At the top you need to UNCHECK "Enable Press and Hold for right-clicking". Hit OK, etc.
That seemed to fix problem.
It seems under windows the default way pens work is that pressing and holding is equal to a right click. So unchecking that turns this off.
I also disabled "Flicks" as well in same dialog box and I thought it may affect how my pen works when drawing.

Using File Adapter with Logical Name

I am creating a file adapter with Logical name. Apart from giving the Logical name is there any other configuration that I am suppose to do on the Web Logic before I start using it?
Thanks in Advance.

After configuring the file adapter, all you need to do is , give the path as a value for the logical name which you have created earlier. That you can do on the file adapter property inspector. There is no need to do anything on the server level. Lemme know
Thanks,

Two ideas, have your friend check and make sure the mid file plays on his/her system.

If the mid file checks out good on his/her system have them compress (ZIP) the file and resend as it could have become corrupted during transfer. It can happen.
Your description of the file (zero length) sounds like it missed the last few bytes.

Using a Tablet with Infinity

Hello Community,
At the ripe old age of 67 I am considering purchasing a tablet to complement my laptop at home. I currently have BT Infinity Opt1 at home with black Hub3 I believe and would ask for help and information on the following.
I assume I will be able to use my tablet at home within a reasonable distance from the hub. First out of the box, again, I presume the device will detect my hub's signal and link to it. And lastly, will I be able to use it out-and-about away from the home hub. I have heard the terminology "Hot Spots" but how do I know where they are and if I am near to one.
I hope I can link up with my original BT Broadband service with my tablet and not have to upgrade or find another provider to do the same job.
I do not have agreat understanding of these things and would ask for your help on this matter which would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

Using Mackie Control with Logic Pro 7 and Yamaha O1X

I currently own a Yamaha O1x which is a mixer/control surface/audio interface that I use with Logic Pro 7. I am planning on selling the O1X and replacing it with the Mackie Control Universal as my DAW controller and using the Apogee Ensemble as my audio interface. I already have purchased the Mackie Control Universal and would like to begin using it instead of the O1X as my DAW controller, but while I am waiting for the Apogee Ensemble to be released I still need the audio interface capabilties of the O1X. The O1X uses Yamaha's MLAN protocol to connect to the G5. MLAN is a firewire interface that can transmit both audio and midi. Does anyone have a suggestion for a work-around solution so that I can use my Mackie Control Universal (which connects via midi cable) and only use the audio capability but not the control surface of the O1X via the firewire connection? I haven't been able to figure my way through this one and see if it is possible. I have already tried having them both hooked up at the same time, and the Mackie Control seemed to work fine but the audio on the O1X didn't seem to be connecting and functioning properly. I appreciate any help as I am anxious to use my Mackie Control.
Thank you!

You need to connect only the Audio and not the MIDI between your 01x and Mac. You can achieve this in mLan Graphic Patchbay-connect the cables between the Nodes in Audio part of a Graphic Patchbay, connect the Wordclock but do not make any MIDI connections. this way it should work as you want. the other way is to Make your regular connection from mLan Autoconnector and disable the MIDI ports that are dedicated to control the DAW by 01x by some freeware utility (01x uses port 1 for that...)
As this is quite 01x specific, please visit 01xray.com/forums where you will find more help, or send me PM.
As Apogee enssemble is expected to have great features, I would rather recommend the i88x instead of Enssemble (i88x has two Mic preamps-the best Yamaha produces (derived from Dm2000)VERY good converters (mLan is known for low jitter and it was tested with Rosseta by a mate from 01x forum who said (he tested it in store with other people) that i88x sounded better-may believe it or not...).The mLan Graphis Patchbay application allows you to patch connections between mLan devices and computer -very flexible. 01x already does almost the same as Mackie control and it is for almost the same price.... But maybe you are pi_ssed of waiting for new mLan drivers? I am just speculating....

Using External Effects with Logic

I'm about to purchase Logic 9, and also need an Audio Interface.
I've got a Korg MicroKorg, which I intend to line-in for its own synth functionality. I also intend to use it as a midi control surface to use percussion, etc., in Logic. How would this work with external effects?
If I create a drum track in Logic, I'd like to do things like run that track through pedals like an EHX Flanger Hoax (I realize sound quality may vary, given that this is a guitar effect).
How what I do that, and what would I need to look for in an Audio Interface to allow me to get the audio out of Logic, through the pedal, and back into Logic?
Thx.

I think I understand you - you have a choice of Firewire or USB connected devices - Firewire devices are faster and generally more reliable and can handle a larger bandwidth, so if you're planning on recording numerous inputs, for example, this will matter. However, USB devices are pretty good on the whole - I'm using a simple Apogee One at the moment, which is perfectly adequate for my purposes, but my earlier point was that it obviously wouldn't be any good for using external effects since you're going to need to send a signal out from Logic (maybe via a Bus/Auxiliary) to your effects device and then return it back into Logic, so you need an interface with enough inputs and outputs to be able to do that. You might want to have other outboard gear permanently connected for convenience, so only you can work out how many inputs and outputs you'll need and obviously, the bigger the requirement, the more expensive it will be. You'll have to do some Googling to give you an idea - Apogee, Focusrite and MOTU are good starting points, in my opinion but there's a vast range (I'd avoid MAudio)
http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&gs_nf=1&cp=22&gs_id=2g&xhr=t&q=audio+interfaces+f or+mac&pf=p&sclient=psy-ab&oq=audio+intefaces+for+ma&gs_l=&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_g c.r_pw.r_qf.,cf.osb&fp=426f61de939593dc&biw=1231&bih=579
Another point I was trying to make earlier is that Logic includes such a large range of effects to choose from (the Pedalboard is an emulation of various fx pedals which you can swop around) that you may find you can get the kind of sounds you want 'in the box' - so that's well worth a try first.

How to use oxygen 8 with logic -- control knobs

Hey
I have an oxygen 8, and if I use it with Logic, the keyboard and pitch bend work, but not the knobs. It was the same with GarageBand, but I don't think with Garage Band it is even possible to get the knobs to work.
It's gotta be possible with Logic, though -- anyone know how?
Thanks
Bob

Hi...good news - it's easy!
if you wanna control the global pan. open the mixer, click on the pan of the output 1-2 channel strip then open the controller assignments (command - L). Learn mode should be selected now move the knob on your oxygen 8 that you wish to control global pan with. click on the "learn mode" button to deselect it and moving the newly assigned knob on your oxygen 8 will control global pan.
This works the same for all plug-ins and instruments too - so you can control the cuttoff and resonance on the exs24 for example or any control on any plug-in.
you need to make sure you activate the control on the plug-in first and then on the oxygen 8.
Also, you can find the controller assignments window here:
Logic Pro>Preferences>Control surfaces>Learn assignments for.... or Controller assignments...
Hope that helps
Rounik

Can I use rack effects with logic?

I am kind of interested in getting a rack effect such as the Digitech DSP 256XL Rack Mount Effects Processor. I am wondering if I could implement this with Logic. I currently use a Tascam USB audio interface with 2 inputs. I just want effects hardware instead of logic's effects. How would this work, if it would at all. Thanks a lot.

Hi,
I use outboard all the time with my Logic.
I do have a 16 input and 16 output converters setup, so I can route to and from the external devices easily.
You can do the same, although if using the FX unit with your current interface you would do a "solo"ed send to the FX, and record the FX returns into Logic, then you could use the FX printed inside logic to play back the effect. This can be easy, or can be hard.
Usually when I do external FX, I do them when final mixing, and when I am "there" with the mix, I print the FX individually into new tracks, so I can recall the mix later on in a different studio, if I need to, or to archive it with the correct FX sounds in the DAW, for the label or artist.
Cheers
