View Track Automation

Hello,
I recently upgraded to Logic Pro from Logic Express.
In Logic Express "v" was the default key command for "View Track Automation." By default in Logic Pro, it is not. I changed the key command for "View Track Automation" in Logic Pro to "v," however, when I press "v," I only see the track automation on my audio channels load, and not my instrument (MIDI channels). In Logic Express both were displayed simultaneously.
How can I fix this?
Thanks you,
Connor

Is there a way I can disable track automation and then re-enable it?
You can delete all track automation from all tracks, or just some tracks. You can also turn it off, and then back on again, but I don't think that will help in your case, but try it.
If I were to copy the regions to a new file it would take a long time to reload and configure all the instruments (I used sample library plug ins).
It's not that bad - I've had to do this many times.
First, on all your more complicated tracks, use "save channel strip settings" on the individual tracks. Also, use "save settings as" on individual plugins if you need to.
Then relaunch Logic, without core audio (control key - open Logic) and create a brand new template. Add the global settings. Open your existing song, and first drag all the audio files over to the new arrangement, then the instrument tracks. Now go through and choose your previous channel strip, instrument and plugin settings.
A little bit more tweaking, and you're done. I'd suggest saving it as a completely different project folder, choosing the option of copying everything from the old folder to the new.
I hope this helps a little - good luck.

Track automation of multi-instrument

dear all,
i have defined a multi-instrument for my access virus,
output is port 1 of my midi-interface (emagic mt4).
everything is ok (in and out of midi data in regions ect.),
but when i try to do some automation of controlers,
the automation data is not transferred to the virus.
also the knobs of the mixer do not move.
if you change to "view track automation" (V command),
you also can adjust the channel from 1-16.
usualy for multi instruments the channels are fixed.
maybe anybody has an idea.
thanks and best regards: martin
ps: using a "regular" instrument (single) makes no
problem at all, the virus gets all controller data as
defined on the automation track...

When using Kontakt as a multitimbral Instr it's better to use the Controller assignments within Kontakt.
Kontakt's definition of how it's setup for automation at the instrument level is different from PLAY, Omnisphere, SampleTank, etc...
I find it easier to setup automation within Logic as a multitrimbral and specifying the number of channels (16 for Kontakt, 9 for Play, 8 for Omnisphere, etc...) and when loading the AU instrument, specify the multiout (16 stereo Kontakt, 9 stereo PLAY, 8 stereo Omnisphere) and automate on the aux outputs of each of the aux channels you create in the mixer window for the channel strip of the instrument in question.
Of course for Kontakt, there's an extra setup you need to do by creating your multi outputs for Kontakt so that Logic can see those, but you can save it as a preset for later use.
If you really need instrument specific automation, it just might be easier to create that instrument as stereo and to "instrument specific" automate knowing that you're just going to affect one loaded instrument.

Viewing plugin automation data

Hi Guys,
I'm using a plugin minimoog as my instrument, and am recording some cutoff frequency sweeps etc. They are recording fine, but I want to go back and edit it manually.
The automation data is appearing as grey bars within the midi region.. but I cant access the data to manipulate it in the hyper view editor, or nothing is appearing in the track automation data either..
any ideas?
thanks,
mike.

Sounds like you're using midi data (which is fine)-select the region and open the event editor it will tell you all events and what exactly their CC#s are-HyEd should then be specified to that CC.

Track automation not in sync with playback

As of today any track automation that I manipulate is out of sync with the track by a beat. So if I adjust low frequency cut to jump from 20Hz to 1kHz at measure 64 1 1 1, when I playback it will make that adjustment at measure 63 4 1 1 instead, despite me looking at the line that's jumped from 20Hz to 1kHz on 64 1 1 1. Am I going crazy?
This doesn't happen to any PREVIOUS track automation, but only new track automation. And it's always a beat early compared to what I assign to it. Also, this is not specific to a certain project, but happens to every project. In other words, I can't make any music really past notes and beat assignments.
Does anyone have any idea what this means?
I don't know if this helps, but here's the current configurations on the Automation menu:
Move automation with regions: never
snap offset: -5 ticks
ramp time: 200 ms
'Write' mode changes to: Touch
Write automatino for (everything is checked off except "solo")
Automation Quick Assic: [X] off

Hi,
Have you add plugins like Adaptive limiter and/or phase linear Eq on Master Out 1-2?
If you add plugin that require Delay conpensation on the Master 1-2.
Also the meter will be delayed...... try to add 5 or more instances of Adaptive Limiter on the master after automation is done...
Maybe this should be related with Graphic delay that is not f compensate in logic 8, I'm not sure but when I add Plugins such as UAD for mastering reason I can see very large difference (not in sync with audio monitoring) on Meters viewing and all pre-recorded automation will be not in sync.
But I'm not sure if this issue is related with only certain project... maybe you have plugin that add latency on Aux or Master out in those projects!
check it.
Thanks

"Move Current Track Automation Data to Region" doesn't work for all

I have been using the 'Move Current Track Automation Data to Region' and while it works fine for some types of automation data like channel volume, pan and some plugin parameters, it doesn't work for all of them.
I haven't done exhaustive research into which parameters work and which don't, but most of the parameters for individual voices within Ultrabeat don't - which is annoying as that is what I was trying to use it for.
Any ideas about this, or workarounds?

OK, well an update on this in case anyone's interested.
With some further experimentation I have discovered that this problem did not exist in Logic 7 - ie you can move current track automation data for individual Ultrabeat voices to the region.
It's also possible to move automation data for individual Ultrabeat voices using 'Move All Track Automation Data to Region,' so I suppose this is a kind of workaround, though it can be annoying if you don't want to move all track automation data.
I'm now assuming this is a bug in Logic 8; is there any way to convert a Logic 8 project to work in Logic 7, as this along with the touch tracks bug is making working in Logic 8 very frustrating?

Removing plu-ins after usuing track automation

so I have a vocal track automated the volume and some other effects. But at the end of day I don't like it. I understand that you can turn "off" or bypass a plug-in either in the arrange area or in the inspector, but how do you clear everything-- get a clean slate so I can start over from scratch with track automation. Thanks

Track Automation

Is it possible to copy and paste track automation segments? For example, my main bass is 1/2 of a bar in lenght and I automated the whole segment, but when I just try to copy and paste it, it does not take the automation changes with it. Any suggestions?

See your track automation settings - you can get Logic to copy automation when you copy/move segments around.
If you really want to copy/paste automation, you need to work in the track automation folder. Open the automation event editor (there's a key command for this), and with that still open, open a new arrange window - this will display the track automation folder, where you can edit automation to your hearts' content.

Moving and Copying/Pasting Track Automation Data

Hello,
I am a fan of using track automation data to control the volume levels on the faders of my Audio Instrument tracks. I am NOT using the track automation assigned to regions, I am using the ones assigned to tracks. If I move a region, however, the automation data (not surprisingly) does not move with the track. What is the easiest way to move automation data on a track? Is there a way to shift all automation data over a specified amount of measures etc?
Furthermore, I would like to copy ALL of the track automation on one track, and move it to another track (and keep the relative distance between all nodes, etc equal). How can I do this?
Thank you very much,
Connor

I think you need to shift-drag select (rubber band select) the
automation stuff and when it's highlighted, hold option, click hold
drag and what you selected will be copied to the new location you
drag it to. You need to be pretty careful to option click hold
exactly on the automation line, if you miss it won't invoke the copy

Can Track Automation Be Locked to SMPTE Position?

Hello all! My question, for the most part, is in the subject field. Can track automation be locked to smpte position? I just did hours worth of track automation edits, locked all my regions to SMPTE position, then changed the tempo to better fit the underlying music only to find out that my automation didn't follow the locked regions. Bad news!! Does anyone know if there's a solution to this problem?
Thanks in advance!

Sup,
it would never work with the Regions Locked to SMPTE.
Solution: without going thru details, just unlock the regions then do your tempo change.

Recording Effects on top of a track, or tracking automation live?

Is there a way for me to play with the dials and knobs of my plug-ins after I have already recorded a track?
I want to be able to use a pretty cool plug-in that I found that has a great range of filters, sweeps and such, but I've already laid down the track and the automation would be extremely difficult to map out by hand...
Is it possible to track automation live?
Any clues?

Is it possible to track automation live?
Sure several ways of doing this:
Set the Audio track to Automation "Latch" or "Write" Mode - press play - tweak the Plug In with your Mouse - the Automation Engine will record your mouse movements
Assign different Controllers (knobs on your Synth or Control device) to different parameters in the Automation->Quick Access Menue - go into "Latch" or "Write" Mode - press play - record the Controller movements
or really old school "live"
Assign the Audio track to a Bus - use that Bus as an Input for a new Audio track - press record - tweak your Plug In while recording the new Audio track - the Plug In movements will get printed onto the new track together with the original Audio

No recording of MIDI Controllers in MIDI Track Automation

Surely we need to have MIDI CC recordable as track automation on a MIDI instrument track just the same as it can be recorded to faders in audio Instrument tracks via a transformer. I know there are work arounds like recording to standard object automation then moving to track automation but I want to see all my recorded modulations at once as track automation for all my Logic instruments and MIDI instruments without wasting any time.

This gets asked at least once a week.
From about ten posts underneath this one:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2095452&tstart=0
Also is there a way to record all of v-drum midi data into separate tracks?
Record into one track, then use the Split/Demix by Note Pitch function to put each MIDI note into it's own track.

Track automation with EW Quantum Leap Platinum Orchestra PLAY edition...

I have Snow Leopard and Logic Pro 9- I use EW Quantum Leap Platinum Orchestra PLAY edition. I would ask on the EW Quantum Leap site also, but I cannot post for some reason...
In track automation it has the option to change the volume in that specific instrument and MIDI channel, but for some reason, it is picking up the other track automation???
I checked all the MIDI channels and everything seems to be set correctly... any information is appreciated. Thank you for your time.

I have been hitting the credit card recently. Last year I bought a Sony Vaio because I couldn't justify all that money when the new line of MBP's finally came out. Sold it 10 months later - they are meant to be a great build quality? Don't think so!
So, 3 or 4 weeks ago I bought a 13" MBP for browsing and a little mixing with Logic - works nicely - until I start hammering it - but it's good for learning.
Anyway - this new iMac replaced my old 21" 2007 model - wow What a dream!
But you know what I always like, every time I open up one of these boxes? The smell! What is it with Apple? Do they spray something in the box? I think they do!
As for how the migration went - pretty good.
Right now though I still have OS and apps on the 256gb SSD and all the data is now on the 1TB HD. Works so well that I don't know whether there is any point in changing it to be honest. I'm sure I could improve read speed by putting all the logic samples on the SSD but I have over 350gb of them so not sure there's much point!

Changing multiple tracks automated levels simultaneously

Is there a way to proportioanlly change all my tracks automated vol levels proportionally at once. The same way grouping tracks can change levels proportionally except for automated data. I have all this automation on my levels but the whole mix is too loud so I need to bring everything down. How do I achieve this?..there must be some straight forward way to do this

Assign Groups. Then you can move one fader and the rest will follow.
There's another, perhaps more elegant solution: if you have enough headroom, automate the Output Levels (output object's levels). You can group these too.

ATS Load Testing and adf.view.rich.automation.ENABLED for ADF apps

In oder to test ADF applications with Load Testing Module, is it required to set the adf.view.rich.automation.ENABLED clause to True in web.xml file or it's only for Functional testing?.
Thanks,
Carlos.

Hey Carlos ^^
You only need to set the web.xml for functional test script.
