Using "Stomp boxes" with virtual instrument guitars?

Hi,
Just "upgraded" to newest ver of GB. With the previous ver I could create a track using a virtual guitar and then edit and add stomp boxes, amps, etc to configure the tone the way I wanted.
I don't see a way to do this in the new ver of GB. I can add stomp boxes to a track that uses a real guitar, but not to virtual instruments.
Any suggestions on how to do this?
Thanks,
Dan

Hey, Paul,
I totally agree: quick-swipe MIDI is the #1 feature I've been hoping to see in Logic for several years now... fingers crossed for the next major release.
And it really shouldn't be a complicated feature to implement.  As you mention, there is the issue of note on/off messages, as well as possible program changes and controller messages, etc., which might cause undesired results if regions were cut arbitrarily.. but... that potential for inconsistency exists every time we cut a MIDI region with the scissor tool as well.  If the quick-swipe tool just duplicated the behavior of the scissor tool, I think it would be extremely useful in most cases.
Don't forget to file it as a feature request!

  • Is it possible to querry all of the Virtual Instruments in a VI using the ActiveX Server Virtual Instrument Class?

    Is it possible to querry all of the Virtual Instruments that exist in the Front panel of a VI using the ActiveX Server Virtual Instrument Class? I can't seem to find a method or property that returns all the Instruments I may want to control from another application.
    I wish not to have to reference to the VI to figure the ControlName by looking at the VI FrontPanel.
    But rather have a prop that exposes the strings of all the Instruments.
    Example:
    allinstr=ObjectVIInstrument.VIControlNames
    Object.SetControlValue(AllInstr(1),value)
    Thanks.
    -Abe

    Abe,
    There is a VI method called "Get All Control Values" that returns an array of {name,typedesc,flatstrvalue} but this method is not exposed to ActiveX interface, most probably because type descriptors and flattened strings are data format internal to LabVIEW.
    However you can make a subVI that inputs the target VI name and returns the name of all controls on the Panel invoking the internal method. Then you call this VI via ActiveX to retrieve the list of Front Panel controls of the target VI.

  • Installing windows XP using discs supplied with virtual PC

    I am currently running Windows XP Home in Virtual PC under 10.3.9 in a powerbook G4. I want to upgrade to a new Macbook for Christmas.
    Can I use the Windows discs I purchased with Virtual PC to install Windows for the dual boot process?
    Thanks in advance
    Rob

    Hi Rob,
    it is indeed technically possible to use the Windows XP from Virtual PC.
    See here for procedure: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060527175405403
    But keep in mind that the Windows License does not allow you to use one Windows XP on two or more computers.
    And because of the Activation Process of XP they will find out...
    Good Luck

  • How to use Application Designer with virtual box vm's

    hi all,
    I could use some help please.
    I have everthing installed and working on the VMs but now I want to use Application Designer but I must be doing something wrong.
    I installed the Oracle client on windows and created tnsnames.ora. I can't connect to the database from windows to vm.
    I have some questions which might help me fix this.
    The directory that was mentioned to put tnsnames.ora in (C:\app\Mike\product\11.2.0\client_1\network\admin\) was not there so I had to create it. Was that what I was supposed to do or did the install go bad?
    For the windows host file what should the ip addresses be? I used the IP Addresses of the eth1 network interface from both guests which I created.
    As far as the PeopleTools on windows I used PT 8.52 but with no patch will that work even though the VMs are PT 8.52.06? So if I need the patch in order for App Designer to work how can I get the patch I think I need an account to do that. I think it mentions in the OVM doc that they are included somewhere so should I use those instead?

    <strike>With virtualbox vm's I assume that you mean the OVM templates converted to virtualbox.</strike>
    Didn't notice the OVM category :)
    Which Oracle Client installer did your use?
    You could use the following download from MOS for Database 11.2..02 (since Peoplesoft database is also delivered at 11.2.0.2)
    Patch 10098816: 11.2.0.2.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER
    From the patch set download only p10098816_112020_platform_4of7.zip, which is your database client. The rest you will not need to be able to use Application Designer and Datamover.
    Once downloaded start the installer and choose option Runtime (do not choose Instant Client or Administrator).
    Now that you have your connectivity, you can start the PIA-AppBatch vm.
    switch to psadm2 user and go to $PS_HOME.
    Here you will find two files
    toolsclient.zip (PeopleTools 8.52, use client only)
    toolspatchvcd.zip (PeopleTools patch 8.52.06, , use client only)
    Copy these files to your windows workstation and install them in that order.
    Copy the tnsnames from the Database vm to your oracle client install dir network\admin dir and you should be ready to start using Application Designer/Datamover.
    For more detailed information see the post from Nicolas:

  • Using USB device with Virtual Com port

    I have an actisys IR USB device that creates a virtual serial port. I can read from it using VISA, however it will not write. I have the same setup working on LV 6.1 running windows 2000. I need to make it work on my system running XP and LV 7.1.

    Hello,
    Does your Windows 2000/LabVIEW 6.1 system work correctly or do you see the same behavior?  It sounds like there may be something wrong with the termination of the command.  What termination method are you using?  Is your instrument set for that method?  You may also want to try using the NI-488.2 Interactive Control.  A tutorial on how to use it is located here if needed.  This will bypass VISA and LabVIEW.  If this works, you may want to update to the latest version of VISA (if you don't already have it) to see if that fixes the issue.

  • USB audio fault using vrm box with Logic pro X

    Hello,
    Having problems with audio output from both usb ports on my Macbook Pro - I have a VRM box connected to the usb port and sound is coming from the left side of my headphones only.  Any help / advice with this much Appreciated.
    Ian

    I'm afraid you have quite a learning curve ahead of you.
    MIDI is not audio, the MIDI tracks you record are not sound, they are little tiny bits of data that tells what key note was presses and how fast (velocity) you played it. The data you're recording will play any sound on any MIDI Instrument. To get the sound of the MOX8 -IN- Logic you would have to record the audio outputs of the MOX8 into Logic as an audio track.
    As with most Workstations you can set up a "Performance" mode that has different instruments on separate MIDI channels, this is for use with the Internal MOX8 sequencer but can also be used by an external sequencer like Logic. For instance, you could have different instruments on MIDI Channels 1 thru 9 and a drum set on channel 10, In Logic you could have ten tracks set to the MIDI channels you want to play on the MOX8... however, the sound would not be in Logic, the sound comes from within the MOX8. To actually get the sound in Logic you have to record it as an audio track. There are other more advanced methods but that's enough to think about. You will need to the Yamaha MOX8 manual and figure out how to set up a performance mode. 

  • M-Audio Black Box Interface.  Acoustic guitar. No sound on monitor or on playback.  Tried every setting known to man, except the one that must work.  I appear to be recording - green lines in upper left.  Can hear it on headphones plugged into M-Audio.  ?

    M-Audio Black Box with Acoustic/electric guitar plugged in.  No sound on monitor or playback in GB.  Have tried every setting I can imagine.  Seems to recording because I have green bars in the upper left and can hear it on headphone into the M-Audio.  Record volume in GB not active - but I'm guessing the M-Audio cancels that.  Any ideas?  Help wanted.  Thanks.

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • How to use input box LOV in query panel (search region)

    Hi,
    We are having JDeveloper version 11.1.2.4.0
    In one of the JSF page, we are showing some data (absences).
    Requirement is to add search region at the top so that user can filter the data, based on search parameters like Business Group, Job etc.
    The search parameters are inter-dependent e.g. Job is dependent on Business Group. So when user selects some particular Business Group, Job search field should show jobs for that Business Group only.
    This works fine we use Choice List for both Business Group and Job.
    However since there are huge number of jobs, Job choice list makes page rendering very slow.
    So we tried to use Input box with LOV for Job.
    But now when job is selected in the LOV popup and returned to main page, job search field shows job id instead of job name.
    Please note that our base VO (AbsencesVO) contains JobId attribute. We have added List of Values on JobId, which fetches Job Name through JobVO1 view accessor.
    How to make Job LOV field show selected Job Name instead of ID? Kindly advise.
    Thanks,
    Vivek

    Thanks Timo/Bangaram, for prompt replies
    Timo, the link mentioned by you talks about showing IDs (DepartmentId, ManagerId etc.) in the search region. I need to show names in the form of Input box LOV.
    Bangaram, as per your suggestion I tried using transient JobName attribute. However now when I select any value in the Job LOV popup and return to main page, it shows first Job Name in the Job Name search field.
    Also when I click 'Search' button in Search panel, it shows error - Attempt to set a parameter name that does not occur in the SQL: BindJobName
    Please note that I have added both JobName and JobId in the List configuration as you suggested.
    In View criteria, I have removed previous item (condition) on JobId and added condition on JobName.(This is required because JobId condition shows JobId search field)
    I also tried making JobName dependent on JobId..still same behaviour.
    Kindly advise.
    Thanks,
    Vivek

  • Can midi keyboard sustain pedal control guitar stomp box wah pedal

    Does anyone know if a midi keyboard sustain pedal can be used to control a guitar stomp box variable.  Specifically the controller pedal for the "wah" pedals. Many thanks!

    Sustain cannot control Wah, because a sustain pedal only sends out value 0 (up/off) or value 127 (down/on). You need an expression/volume pedal, that sends out continuous messages from 1 to 127, which is what you'ld need for operating Wah.

  • I am unable to get sound using apogee jam with my guitar. I can see input levels but no sound. What step am I missing?

            Jun 4, 2012 3:24 PM    
    I think I have done something wrong. I used my Apogee Jam on a guitar project with several audio tracks in Logic Pro 9. And while the Apogee Jam still was connected, I switched to another project with only instrument tracks (synths). I forgot to change the "Built In Input". After I did this, my guitar sounds like crap when I try to use Apogee Jam in the same guitar project, or also if I create a new project. I use Guitar Rig 5 (Native Instruments) as my guitar plug-in. But the guitar sounds strange even if I don´t assign Guitar Rig.
    Can somebody help me?

  • Possible to use third-party virtual instrument sounds in Mainstage?

    Hi guys,
    I've tried to find the answer to this question with no luck. When using Mainstage during live performances (or at rehearsals, off course, will I be limited to using Apple's built in sounds in Mainstage, or will I be able to add sound from other virtual instruments like the ones from Native Instrument for instance? Let's say I want to play my favorite piano sound from Akoustik Piano and want to use this conveniently from within the Mainstage interface - is this somehow possible?
    Thank you!
    Best,
    Thomas

    Absolutely --- Native Instruments plugins are all available as AUs and work very well with MainStage.

  • Vdi 3.1 automatic desktop logon with virtual box desktop provider

    hi
    is it possible to enable autologon to a desktop if the desktop provider is virtual box with virtualbox rdp as desktop protocol?
    i only see the press ctrl alt delete window
    thank you
    br
    Andre

    Hi
    vdi communicates directly with the virtual machine if rdp is usedwith VRDP the RDP client on the vdi/sunray server connects to the Console of the VirtualBox machine
    with MS RDP the RDP client on the vdi/sunray server connects to the terminal services of the XP machine.
    the virtual desktop which i have imported into vdi was configured with nat This doesn't matter. You are able to configure the network setting at the settings tab of the Pool. (host networking and windows RDP)
    if i change the network from nat to hostbased network i'm not able to reach a network from this virtual machineIf you set it to hostbased network do you get proper TCP/IP settings in the XP machine?
    must i change the vbox host network config to use hostbased network instead of nat?If you mean change the template; you don't because this could be set with settings on the pool tab.
    if you mean change something on the Box hosting the VirtualBox vm's; you don't need to configure anything special to allow it to use hostbased network.
    You're VM's running on this box should receive proper TCP/IP settings though.
    To debug this create a smartcard to logon to Solaris, with the Sunray management interface :1660 and try to RDP to one of the VM's to see if terminal services are running and firewall settings allow you to connect to the VM from Solaris. You could try this from any other host/laptop/fatclient if you network setup allows you to connect RDP ot the VM's ips.

  • Using Logic with virtual guitarist

    I'm trying to use logic with virtual guitarist. Do you use this as an instrument or midi? When I use it as an instrument virtual guitarist does not follow logic tempo. And when I use it as a midi track I can not play it since virtual guitarist is not a hardware. Any sugestions?

    VG is a virtual instrument. If you want to use it within Logic, you need to convert the .vst into an AU (Audio Unit) so Logic can see and use it as .vst isn't supported anymore in OS X.
    The .vst to AU conversion is best done via the VST-AU Wrapper application, available from the http://www.fxpansion.com website or your local dealer. No, I don't work for them, but I use the wrapper extensively for older .vst instruments in Logic.
    If you need more detail information about this (and Virtual Guitarist in particular), you may want to check the VG forum here : http://bornemark.se/forum/viewforum.php?f=4&sid=a4bd0b1112e9d381261c09d8160fc1f7
