Using Edirol PCR keyboard with Logic

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience using Logic with an Edirol PCR midi keyboard. From what I understand you can program the keyboard using Edirols software editor or using key mapping in Logic. I looks like it would be a lot easier to use the built in key mapping if it worked well opposed to programming the midi with the software. I also see that you can download a control map from Roland that was made for Logic 6 and was wondering if anyone knows if it works with 7 and how well if it does. I just hoping it will be easy to use use this keyboard with Logic beause it has knobs and sliders. The final question I have is if you can use an expression pedal connected to a midi keyboard with a guitar. Any feedback is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I also meant to ask if anyone has used a Tascam US-428 with Logic. I haven't found any control maps but it looks like support is built into Logic?

Is anyone using the novation impulse keyboard with Logic pro x?

is anyone using the novation impulse keyboard with Logic pro x?
I currently have an M-Audio Axium controller but I cannot map any of the controllers.
I need to buy a 25 key controller anyway so I was hoping to get one that works well with Logic Pro X

I have the Logitech S530 keyboard and mouse. I had no problems with it while I was using it with 2 PowerMac G5 and one Dell XPS, but when I got the MacPro I found that it doesn't work with MacPro and a KVM switch. Logitech says their keyboard and mice are NOT made to work with KVM switches, but I didn't find that until I started using it with the Mac Pro.
The other small con is that the mouse is made for right handed people. On the other hand, I love the looks and feel of the keyboard and all the keys. It also will do the boot up holding down the Option key for choosing your startup drive and holding down the Shift key for Safe Mode, which the Kensington keyboard will not do.

If your info is correct you need to first buy Snow Leopard from the Apple on-line store ($20) install and update to 10.6.8 and then buy Lion from the App Store for $20.

Everywhere that I've checked it is not possible to do this. I would like to even do this using the vkb. I hate having to stretch my thumb all the way up just to send a message. It's messaging, not a report or email. Seems backwards. Hopefully some day Apple can add this option.

Can I use apple bluetooth keyboard with my samsung tv that does not have a built in bluetooth

To my knowledge, no. A Bluetooth device will connect to something that has appropriate BT hardware.

How to use my TS 12 Ensoniq keyboard with Logic Pro X

I just got Logic Pro X but I have no idea how to use my midi keyboard. I have a midi to usb cable running between my TS-12 Ensoniq keyboard. How do I set up the drivers or really just get it all to work. I'm a noob to the hardware stuff though I'm quiet fimilar with Logic 9. Help would be great asap!

So I guess it can make the sound of one hand clapping?
Anyway...
Does the USB-MIDI cable need drivers? What brand is it? There are some cheap ones floating around ebay that don't work properly with all hardware. Assuming you've got a working one that needs no drivers, all you need to do is plug it in, the OS and Logic should detect it automatically. In Audio MIDI Setup (MIDI page) you can check if your Mac indeed recognizes the MIDI interface. It will not show the TS12 itself, just the MIDI interface.
You can find Audio MIDI Setup in Applications>Utilities.

How do I use my external MIDI keyboard with Logic 7 and create MIDI data?

I have a Yamaha UX16 cord that goes from the MIDI IN & OUT of my keyboard to a USB jack to plug in my Mac. But I don't know how to set it up so I can record myself playing the keyboard via MIDI and then later switch the sound or instrument in the track.

Hi,
You need to set up your keyboard inside a utility ap. called Audio Midi Setup.
You find it here:
Applications / Utilities / Audio Midi Setup.app
Inside this application you should see your Yamaha UX16 as an interface with ports along the bottom of it. Create a new device and name it whatever your keyboard is named, and cable it to and from the Yamaha UX16.
If you do not see the Yamaha UX16, you need to install it's drivers. Consult your manual / the Yamaha website for details on this.
Once this is accomplished, you will then see the keyboard inside Logic, as a Midi input.
Dont' forget to read this document, to enlighten you as to how Logic works, as it is very different that Garageband:

Using Multiple Audio Interfaces With Logic (Edirol FA-101)

I just bought tiger so that i could aggregate my two edirol fa-101's and they still dont work. They cut out and the sync buttons flash. Its as if the computer ant deal with so much information. I stop all large processes on my g5 dual 1.8 and try again. They cut out whether im in Logic or not. One works ok but still cuts out sometimes, adding another has made the problem twice as bad. Any advice please. Ive talked to edirol and they have no idea what to do... Thanks, Ben

According to their web page, the FA-101 does accept SPDIF. They should be wired together with one unit should be set up as a master and the other as a slave. You units should sync up then.
As they are right now, the two units are competing to sync with Logic, causing the sound to pop and cut out.

Anyone using Tascam DM-3200 with Logic

Anyone using the Tascam DM-3200 with Logic? Sure seems like an easy solution combination of converters and DAW control, plus onboard effects.

Hey Joseph,
I have this combination. I like it so far. I'm not really a "mixer" person but I am resolute in learning how to use this thing in depth!
Anyways, as far as controlling Logic, I got it working pretty easily. It seems that the faders don't seem as "sensitive" as my Logic Control (I think I mean resolution, perhaps?). I also have not played with the Tascam enough to know what other features are mapped out besides just level faders. It is very easy to switch between a fader layer and the Mackie control layer: just one button press. One thing though is if I have logic set to auto-sync in, and play, it will receive some timecode from somewhere and then stop after 2 bars. Don't know why this is, and it means I'll have to disable the Tascam's midi if I want to sync Logic to, say, Protools.
I connect my old 828 via Adat to Tascam and it sounds so much better than the Analog ins to the Tascam, so I'm happy about that. I have also the 8 Analog input card so I have a total of 24 Analog Ins which is nice too.
If you have any specific questions, I'll try to asnwer them, but so far, i like the combination a lot. My one complaint - they put the Control Room volume way up at the top of the mixer. My keyboard (Roland XV88) protrudes a bit from the front of the mixer, so i can see myself getting back spasms if I reach that volume control a lot!! I guess I'm shorter than the average user! Anyways, the mixer sounds good enogh to my ears.
Cheers
Ken
PS The manuals for the mixer are at Tascam's website. You can also take a peek at them to get a sense how things are setup.

How can i use my axiom 49 with logic pro X

Hey..
So I've been using logic to make music for a while now and just recently obtained an axiom 49 controller to open my possibilities. The only thing is, I have no idea exactly how to make it work the way I expected it to. All that comes by default is that my keybord works with all the types of preloaded instruments, but none of the faders or knobs work.. Is there something else i need to install or is it in the settings?
Highly appreciate any help,
Danny

Ok, I'll ask again... have you downloaded and installed the software that enables the keyboard to become a controller for all the functions you've described?
You have to be an active participant in getting things to work correctly.
Have you read the M-Audio manual that tells you how to do this?
Here, I just went to the M-Audio site.
http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=support&tab=driver&serie_ID=3&PID=65526d20ff 75725a01dcf4dfab822e9d#tabs
It looks like it's called Direct Link, I imagine it comes with directions how to install the software and get it working with the keyboard. It's for Logic 9 but I suspect it will work with Logic X

Hi again Bill,
Something very strange has happened this morning. I was using Logic and thought 'I'll just plug in the TASCAM again to see if anything happens' and it just worked straight away. This is most peculiar as I didn't do or press anything to make it work. Yesterday when I was trying to get it to work, I closed the program and restarted the computer several times are making adjustmemnts but it just wasn't working at all. It seems a good night sleep has gievn it time to think things through lol.

Make it easier to use Blue Snowball mic with Logic

This post is intended for Apple to see. Perhaps this problem is fixed in Logic Pro/Express 7.2.
The Blue Snowball was designed for GarageBand and works great with it, right out of the box.
But trying to use it with Logic is like pulling teeth or debugging a Java program. 1. You have to create an Aggregate Device in Apple MIDI setup.
2. Once you do that, you still record blank audio tracks unless you read the forum posts really carefully and find out that you can use I/O slot Input 3 or Input 4 on the audio track you want to record with the Snowball. Once you do that you're OK.
My beef is that since Apple would love people to upgrade from GarageBand to Logic, and a few people will, and the Blue works great, right out of the box, with GB, your developers should figure out whether it's a relatively easy fix to make Logic Pro - and especially Express, the "logical" upgrade for most GB users - use the Blue Snowball right out of the box the minute they install Logic Express, Pro, or Logic Express Trial.

I understand what you're saying about the "sound software principles", but you are probably an expert sound technician, and I'm not - yet. I have lots of learning to do. I come in as a musical person, a composer. I've also been a software developer at a "low" (i e industrial DP with Java, not C++ or Objective-C).
I'm speaking from the point of view of a customer at the Apple store. Say he's a newbie, like me. He (or she) gets GarageBand and then, noticing that it's featured item at the Apple store, gets a Blue Snowball.
A little later this person falls in love with digital music-making and downloads Logic Express Trial. Suddenly s/he finds that the Snowball records blank tracks. S/he complains, perhaps bitterly, to Apple or to her/his friendss about how this great microphone doesn't work with Logic. S/he is not used to reading forum posts, looking for FAQs, in short, doing all I had to do to find out how to make the Blue work.
It's not software, it's marketing, and usability. If there are good reasons not to change Logic, then at least Apple - and/or Blue - should have an FAQ or an insert in the documentation telling you what to do to make your Snowball record if you upgrade from GB to Logic. It's simply not customer-friendly! And some people who get Logic Express will never understand or care about the software design and technology. Neither Apple nor Blue wants annoyed customers. I happen not to be an annoyed customer only because I hunted through the forums and figured out what to do.. and it was -anything- but intuitive!

HT5636 I am using an Apple keyboard with numeric key pad.

I have a new Mac OSX 10.9.2. I am using Bootcamp to run WIndows 8.1.
I have just connected a new USB Apple keyboard with numeric key pad.
All works fine in OSX. But in windows the numeric numbers on the keypad wont work.
Numlock appears to work, but nothing happens when the number keys are pressed.
The keys / * - +and entre all work ok. Just not the numbers.
MIcrosoft SUPPORT REFUSED to help me because i am using a mac, they claim it is a hardware problem.

I would look for a program which would display the ascii value of typed letters
if i had the letter the key send one can assign that value to any other function one wish
https://www.google.dk/search?q=program+which+display+the+acsii+of+typed+letters& oq=program+which+display+the+acsii+of+typed+letters&aqs=chrome..69i57.11855j0j4& sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8#q=program+which+display+the+ascii+of+typed+let ters&spell=1
if the program would get no ascii value from the num keyboard then I suppose ms were correct
if not then there are tons of free programs to reassign keys as one see fit
and even if they were not to work one can do it manually in regedit in windows
