Why are Logic's MIDI sounds all panned?

All the midi sounds that I am using sound extra heavy on the left side...because they are.  When I try to pan them to the right, they simply get quiet, there is hardly any level there.  When I change them to audio I can see clearly that they are all louder on the left side. 
What gives?????

Thanks guys.  I had all my hardware set up fine.  And I got confused when I changed a few midi clips to audio and saw that they were heavier on the left.  I assumed ALL the clips I was hearing would look like that.
Turns out it was a software issue after all.  Tracing the signal step by step I found that the audio out put in the SYSTEM SETTINGS was panned left.  I have no idea how that happened.  And now I'm worried I've blown my left speaker lol.
Anyway thanks for comments both helped me underta d it wasn't logic, it was me.

    Hi
    Assuming that you purchased Logic from the Appstore, did you download all the additional content?
    Go to the Logic Pro menu and choose "Download Additional Content".... there's loads to download, so it is probably best to do it in batches.

    I would try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. Once the phone restarts, see if it is working correctly. It sounds to me like you may have too many text messages in the Messages app. Have you deleted anything from there lately?

  • Why are there lock icons on all of my Bridge Presets?

    Why are there lock icons on all of my Bridge Presets?

    CynthiaRovira,
    As you can see, the original post, almost a year old already, received no replies.  That is undoubtedly due to the total lack of details and the cryptic nature of the message.
    I cannot imagine what this is all about.  What presets?  Where do you see this icon? In the application itself or when looking at the preset folder in your OS navigator (Apple's Finder, Win Explorer)?  What does it look like, a padlock or a circle with a diagonal through it?
    Please provide both a screen shot of the issue and some sensible information.  We don't even know what your platform is Mac or windows.

    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,

  • Why are my pictures in the "All Photos" Album out of order?

    Within Albums there is an "All Photos" folder but some of the photos are out of order. How is this "All Photos" album different to the "Photos" view (which is in the correct order) and why are they not the same?

    Thanks, that's a helpfuland explanation of the difference and makes sense as all  my photos are actually  in an album (which was an event in the previous version).
    However it doesn't explain why the order in "all photos" is different.  It is not in the order that the albums are arranged, and odd photos seem randomly scattered about separated from other photos from the same album. 
    On a separate note It's also a shame as there is no way of arranging the albums chronologically (which you could do with events)

  • Why are system and application sound files appearing in itunes?

    Suddenly, over 900 system and application sound files, each about a second or 2 long, have appeared in my iPhone 4S music player. They've also appeared in my iTunes on my desktop iMac. Not sure whether they appeared on the computer first or on the phone first. I can't figure out why they appeared there or how to get rid of them (without also removing them from the system and applications which, of course, I don't want to do).
    I searched through the discussions here and found several other people complaining about the same thing, going back a couple of years, but no solutions offered. I hope someone can offer a clue.

    Thanks for the suggestions and help. While the cause of this problem is still obscure, we've managed, with an Apple tech's help, to remove the system/application sound files from both the iPhone and iTunes. We used Time Machine to backtrack to the point at which the sound files first appeared in the iTunes folder, then moved back one more day and restored the iTunes Media folder (where all the music was stored) and 2 iTunes files: iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Music Library.xml (we could also have simply restored the entire iTunes folder with the same effect). Then we synced the iPhone.
    As for the cause, that's still a puzzle. From Time Machine, we were able to determine that the files were added between midnight and 12:47 AM on a particular day, but that computer was not in use at that time (the user was asleep in bed, and the only other person in the house at the time was me -- and I don't touch that computer).

  • Why are my R G and B panes inconsistant with the main pane? (PS7)

    I'm using Photoshop 7. When I make an RGB image and draw something using grays only, I'd expect the indivdual color panes to look the same as each other and the same as the main RGB pane. But while they look the same as each other, they don't look the same as the main RGB pane. What's going on here? The RGB color profile is set to Monitor RGB, so it won't differe from my monitor, and the Gray color profile is set to Gamma 2.2, which I heard is the default gamma for Windows computers. I set all color profile handling to "off", so it should just behave like a fancy drawing program with lots of effects I can apply to images, but without the color profile mumbo jumbo (and a fancy drawing program is all I need it for as a hobbiest and a game sprite editor, as my intended output is ALWAYS my monitor and NEVER a paper print out). But I obviuously didn't manage to turn off ALL handling of color profiles, as the way it handles the color chanels when I draw in gray on an RGB image is proof. Normally at this point I'd give up and use something else and uninstall Photoshop, but it is easy to use and has some features that NO other program I've found does that actually come in handy while I'm editing ripped game sprites, ESPECIAIALLY its RGB to indexed color convertions (great for making my own 16 or 256 color sprites out of 24bit color images) and these RGB to indexed conversions (just by the options it presents for this conversion, and the color accuracy of the algorithms like Local Perceptual and Local Selective, and the rare ability to save as a 4bit BMP file) are FAR FAR FAR better than any other graphics program I've EVER used before. So I REALLY don't want to stop using it. However it REALLY is getting on anoying to have the R G and B chanels look different from the main RGB pane when I'm drawing only in shades of gray.
    Any idea how to fix this?

    J Maloney,
    I'm not sure I understand your question/statement or what you are trying to achieve.
    I just ran a little experiment (tell me if I am on the right track or whether I am completely missing your point, which is quite possible). I took an sRGB color image. I duplicated it so I had two identical sRGB images. One I converted to dot gain 20% using Relative Colorimetric with BPC on. The other was converted to Gray Gamma 2.2 with RC & BPC. Of course, the numbers changed, since a dot gain space is not the same as a gamma curve space, but the appearance is the same.
    Then, I "selected all" and copied the 20% dot gain image and pasted it into a new sRGB document. I repeated the procedure for the gray gamma 2.2 image. This gave me two new sRGB images that are grayscale in appearance (fully desaturated).
    All four images (whether dot gain 20%, gray gamma 2.2, or the two desaturated sRGB images look identical to me when switching back and forth from one to another. You can't "assign" from one mode to another (for example you can't assign a grayscale space to an RGB document). If you assign a different working space to your grayscale or RGB image, the numbers remain the same, but the appearance changes.
    I have my "Color Settings" in Photoshop set to 20% dot gain, because I don't do a lot of grayscale internet work. Press work is more up my alley so I prefer to use dot gain. I also have all my color management policies set to Preserve Embedded Profiles. Maybe changing color settings will have some impact on the above scenario (I haven't tested that in ages, so I don't remember). I almost always convert (Edit > Convert to Profile) by selecting the exact profile and settings I want anyway instead of just using the "Mode" feature. That way, I know exactly what is going on and have control over the final outcome.
    If I was doing a lot of B&W work for the internet, I'd probably set my gray working space in color settings to gray gamma 2.2, and use either sRGB or Adobe RGB, since they are both 2.2 gamma working spaces.
    I'm rattling on, hoping I am understanding your question or statement.I'm not "jumping through any hoops" and all 4 of the above images have identical appearance. I must be misunderstanding something, or perhaps out color settings are different.

  • Why are Logic 8 samples separated from the 'legacy' ones?  whats the point?

    When I installed Logic 8, I noticed that the installer had separated the new (and improved?) Logic 8 EXS24 instruments from the untouched ones (known as Legacy Instruments in Logic). Is it safe to assume that the Logic EXS24 instruments were set up this way because those who bought Logic 8 outright, and not as an upgrade, did not get the Legacy Instruments? If not, why wouldn't they just allocate the Legacy Instruments where they belong within the sample hierarchy? What have you guys done with the Legacy layout? Did you leave it as is, or did you disperse the Legacy Sampler Instruments amongst their 'families' for searching convenience? If I decided to do this myself, do you think there would there be an organization disadvantage when it came time to upgrade Logic 8 to Logic 9? I guess I am just looking for a little background on the reasoning for this, as well as what most other users have done. Thanks!

    What is the deal with this new CAF formant anyway? Is it just smaller file size? Are there any downsides to it?
    Have any upgrades melded the Legacy in with the Logic 8 instruments for the sake of convenience when searching for instruments? I was thinking I would do that, but than wondered if that would make it extra tedious somehow when the next Logic came out.

    I am having no problems with the HBOGo app on my iPad. Try quitting the app and then restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close the app by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the HBOGo icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesn't work, try a reset of the iPad. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Why are my playlists on iphone all messed up?

    Since updating to IOS 5 I have noticed that my playlists are all jacked up.  I want the playlists to play in order of popularity like they do in itunes on my mac.  Any suggestions??

    I'm not sure how true this is..... Then again I'm not sure I totally understand this whole cloud thing yet. But I have 742 photos on my photo stream on my iPhone and only 144 of them on my iPad. I turned off photo stream on the iPad and turned it back on and it loaded even less then the original 144 pics. I'm at a loss. They were all synced with my iPad until recently.  And if this statement is true about syncing only the new ones since turning on photo stream then my iPad photo stream would have loaded zero pics. What happened?

  • Why are my photos on iPhoto all zoomed in to a face and I can't see the entire photo?

    It says the photos are all 240x240.

    Then you have imported the face thumbnails - did you recently move to a new machine and import your old library? Hint - NEVER import one iPhtoo library into another one - it does not work and creates a massive mess
    If you did import yoru old library then drag the bad library to the desktop and Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
    once you have a good working library trash the bac one on the desktop

    It is always useful when creating a template to have the original text...just to see the layout.
    What do you mean with 'original text'? An already existing text that needs a layout? If it is only text without any formatting, any template-based application cannot offer more than a quick way to paste the text into it (eg, by selecting all body text in the template). If your text has already the full set of styles, I don't know of a way to switch from one set of styles to another one in Pages (I wouldn't know of way in Word either but I know less of Word). I know that one can in Keynote switch an existing presentation between different styles/templates.
    The point of Lorem Ipsum text is to have a body of text that looks like normal text for speakers of most European languages but doesn't have any meaning so the visual impression is not biased by actual content. Actual words from a language one knows will add meaning that distracts from the visual impact. One could use any other essentially meaningless text, eg, repetitions of 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog', but the repetition will give blocks of text visual patterns. You need something random to get something looking natural. And it is not that any of the text would be marked as Latin for hyphenation or spelling purposes, it'll be marked at whatever language the default one is.
    The added benefit, already mentioned, is that is easy to see what is dummy text and what is actual text.
