Will upgrading to ssd mess up my plugins in logic pro

I have a 2012 MBP.. I am wondering if i upgrade to a 1tb SSD.. will logic pro and all of my plugins switch over seamlessly?

If you clone your hard drive before the swap, everything should be seamless. Put the SSD in an enclosure and copy it with Carbon Copy Cloner.

I reset the preferences on both application and nothing happens.
please let me know if you find out any solution. and I will do the same.

Plugins in logic pro

GPO and JABB do not show up in Logic Pro. I've just upgraded from Logic Express ro Logic Pro. Plugins don't appear in Express either. I used the default install for all plugins and for Logic.

Could be several things:
Are the plug-ins in Audio Unit format? They would have to be to work with Logic. Other formats like VST, RTAS, etc won't work.
Are the plug-ins 32-bit or 64-bit? If you are running Logic in 64-bit mode, it will not scan new 32-bit plug-ins on launch. To get it to scan them, get info on the Logic application, select the "Open in 32-bit" checkbox, and launch Logic. It will scan for new 32-bit Audio Units. Once that's done, you can quit, and uncheck the 32-bit mode check box. The 32-bit Audio Units will be available in the Audio Units (32-bit) sub menu when you click an insert slot on a channel strip.

Will the Zoom R16 work as an interface in Logic Pro X under Mountain Lion?

I've searched and found some indications that the Zoom R16 will work and has problems with earlier versions of Mac OS; so my question is actually will the R16 work under Mountain Lion (GB, Logic Pro, etc) as a control AND a recording interface?
I'll be using it on either a late 2011 MBP core i7 16GB Ram solid state HD (live playing, live recording) or on a late 2012 iMac core i7 32GB Ram solid state HD with Thunderbolt and USB3.0 outboard drives (recording).
Any input would be appreciated... I've been unable to definitely tell if it's an "install the driver, install Logic Pro, and then rock n roll" or it's a "doesn't work correctly, makes noise, crashed my system AND killed my pet rabbit" kind of thing.
Thanks,
Les

Thanks Art of Sound. I did see that post but it didn't give me a warm feeling about the Zoom.
My bad, I should have posted back after I messed around with this. It turned out that my problem was due to some kind of intermittent connection within the Zoom itself.
I got another one, and it's working fine now as a Mackie Control. It's a little arcane getting it hooked up in Logic (mostly due to inexperience on my part), but so far it seems to be working fine...
If I can spare anyone the frustration/confusion:
Basically:
Download the latest and greatest Zoom R16 driver from their web site and install (I'm using OSX ML and it works fine with Logic Pro X).
Plug in Zoom R16 via USB 2.0 cable, (then on the Zoom itself, select USB, then AUDIO INTERFACE? (Enter), then SETTING? (Enter).
You may need to open Audio/Midi Preferences and set that to the ZOOM R16.
Open Logic and hopefully it sees the Zoom.
Under main Logic Pro X header, select Control Surfaces>Setup
Find and add "Mackie Control" (there are other ones, this one works, can't speak to the rest).
Then (and this is the part that I kept missing) make sure to select the Mackie Control (so it gets a blue box around it) and then make sure the Output Port and Input Port are set to Zoom R16_R24 using the little up/down arrow thingies at the right of each box. I didn't see these/figure out how to select at first... I'm a DA NOOB.
That's it. Open a new multitrack project, assign your inputs to channels, and off you go!
Recording:
All inputs work, level control and faders (which aren't motorized, so it can be a little confusing at first)
Transport and control buttons work, the jog/shuttle is useful.
There are 5 function buttons that by default change the Logic screen setups (can be programmed differently)
Track button seems to mute/unmute only.
The on-board condenser mikes work, if you want them (channels 7 & 8 on the Zoom). Ugh.
Electric guitar direct in seems ok, and a Shure SM57 worked fine. I'll be working with some better mikes hopefully this weekend.
I have it working happily with a late 2011 MBPro, and a late 2012 iMac.
For the money, considering it's a stand-alone 8 track digital recorder (seems to work ok for that purpose so far) as well, it's actually sort of cool. Setup your mixdown in Logic as a wave project, and pull the files off the SD card (Zoom can be configured as a USB card reader easily). Will record at high sample rates allegedly.
I won't be so lazy in future, and I'll report my on-going experience with it.

Will the Zoom R16 work as an interface in Logic Pro X under Mavericks?

Hi. I have Mavericks and Logic Pro X on my Macbook Pro (late 2011).
I have upgraded my Zoom R16 to the lates firmware (1.4) and uses the lates mac driver (1.4.0).
The sound driver works great.
I've tried all mackie control surface setup in Logic without ant luck.
I can manualy setup the button (rec, play, stop) under Key Commands - Edit.
The faders wont work. After teaching them in Control Surfaces - Controller Assignments. Something happens, but when i teach more than one fader it goes "bananas".
Can somebody help me?

How come I don't have any plugins for Logic Pro X?

Hi! So, I recently bought and installed Logic Pro X, and I was excited to use the different plugins it had to offer,. But to my surprise, it seems there arent any plugins besides the ones displayed. When I click in the "plugin area" to open it up, all I see is this. Ive been trying to figure out what I did wrong in the installation process. I'm pretty new to the Apple scene, so I'd really appreciate the help .. Thank you! Heres what comes up when I click in the "plugin area". For example, I don't have the EXS24 or any other plugins of that nature. I have no idea what to do.

Also...
1) Make sure you have downloaded all the additional content.... via the menu option Logic Pro X/Download Additional Content
2) Make sure you turn on all the advanced features of LPX by going to the Advanced tab of LPX's preferences.... so LPX isn't running in the "Garageband Pro" mode....

Will my Unitor8 non USB Midi Interface work with Logic Pro 8 (MacOSX 10.5.8

I just purchased one of these Unitor8 gizmos, but have no way of connecting it with my Mac due to the absence of the USB connection on the MIDI interface. My question is....can I use a RS422 mini-din 8pin serial >>>to USB adapter converter, and will the OS and Logic recognize it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
John Bennett
Logic Pro 8, MacPro 8 core Xeon, M-Audio ProFire 2626.

The problem is not the reliability of the adapter (they're just fine), but that the Midi driver doesn't look for such an adapter. It won't work. The only chance to get your interface to work is to buy one of the emagic interfaces that came with both USB and RS port and to chain them up.

32-bit plugins in Logic Pro X (for Free)

There's still a few essential plugins many of use which haven't become 64-bit just yet... (e.g. Sylenth).
There are a few ways to run them in a au/vst host and get that into Logic... namely: VEPro and Plogue Bidule. Both of these solutions hit the wallet, so I've found a way to use FREE tools to do much the same thing using Apple's AU Lab and Soundflower.
I've written up a tutorial here:

Will adding an SSD HD to my late 2008 MacBook Pro make a difference to its performance?

As the title says - this is my only Mac, I can not afford to buy a new one, and it is just dead slow, the most basic tasks, browsing, using Finder are now just time consuming.
I have made as much space on the drive as possible and ran Disk Warrior to defrag it, but it has had a neglible effect.
I've been looking at the Samsung 840 Pro Series - thing is, at 200 Euros, I could just save up a bit longer and get a refurbished Mac Mini or something..

You will notice better performance in read and write tasks, so startups will be faster, and also the times to copy files and create other ones. You won't notice any difference in processes that require GPU or processor performance, as the only difference is your disk.
The SSD will give your MacBook a much better performance, so if you don't have enough money, you can get a SSD and install it. Personally, I don't recommend the Samsung 840 Pro because I have seen multiple cases here of sudden damages to it.
Depending on the Mac mini you want to get, it will have better hardware that will allow you to get better performance in tasks related to GPU and CPU, for example, but the read and write speed will be near the same. It's worth saying that the Mac mini will be useful for more years, depending on the generation you get

Upgrade to SSD or HDD? Late 2011 MacBook Pro

Hi,
I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro, running Yosemite with 500GB hard drive & 4 GB of RAM.
I'm going to upgrade the RAM to 16GB regardless to speed things up a little.
I'm a very basic level user. Mainly use it for web surfing, watching movies, downloading music etc.
I don't think I want to lose the SuperDrive as I burn cd's to play in my car.
Reckon an upgrade to an internal HDD should do the trick. Looking to get 2TB at least. Can anyone recommend anything to me please & explain to me how I go about transferring data from current HDD to the new 1?
Thanks!

Vendors to check are OWC, DataMem, and Best Buy. I would recommend Seagate, HSGT, and Toshiba. The latter now makes a 2 TB notebook sized drive you can use in that model. I believe this is the largest capacity for a notebook drive.
Adding RAM only makes it possible to run more programs concurrently. It doesn't speed up the computer nor make games run faster. What it can do is prevent the system from having to use disk-based VM when it runs out of RAM because you are trying to run too many applications concurrently or using applications that are extremely RAM dependent. It will improve the performance of applications that run mostly in RAM or when loading programs.

Will this HDD + SSD combo be okay for my MacBook Pro?

Hi all, I have a late 2011 unibody MacBook Pro and my hard drive has decided to fail on me. I've had a warning in Disk Utility for about a week telling me that the disk has a hardware problem and needs to be replaced.
I've had nothing but trouble where hard drives are concerned after losing a Seagate 1TB external and a Seagate Momentus XT internal due to hardware problems. So with this in mind I thought I'd check whether I've got my mind set on the right thing before I buy a replacement.
Now, my SuperDrive died earlier this year and whilst trying to repair it I decided to pull the whole thing out and get rid of it so I have the big space inside where I discovered I could replace it with a OWC Data Doubler and HDD. I've had a scout round the web and been through a fair few reviews on comparable drives and I'm hoping the two drives I've picked out will suffice before I manage to kill any more.
First I'd like to put a Samsung 840 EVO120GB SSD in the main bay to boot my OS and applications from. Then I'd like to put a Western Digital Black 750GB in the second bay for general storage. I've done a bit of homework and I think these should work fine but I would really appreciate if you guys could verify this and if there's any advice to go with it.
I thank you in advance.
James

There are lots of postings warning not to use WD drives. They are particularly incompatible with Mavericks.
Check out OWC (macsales.com) and Crucial.com. These vendors are often mentioned for reliable 3rd-party parts. Each sells their own brand of SSDs. A 120 GB SSD is going for $150.
For the hard drive consider a one TB SSD-Hybrid disk. Google "Seagate 1TB Solid State Hybrid Drive SATA 6Gbps 64MB Cache 2.5-Inch”. It will be much faster than a standard drive and costs only $100.

Waves plugins in Logic Pro 7

How do I get waves plugins to run with logic? I moved the component into the plug ins folder, but still no love.
many thanks

Hi,
You need to install them properly. simply moving a plugin component of Waves plugins, is not the way to do it.
1.- Download the lates version (especially if you're on Leopard)
2.- Install the correct plugin package from the installer (it will ask you what to install)
3.- Follow the instructions.
4.- you will at the end of the installation automatically run the Waves AU utility, which registers the plugins you installed as AU versions, and installs the correct component in the right folder.
5.- Authorize the plugins. Either get a demo key for your iLok from waves, or the permanent licence, again for the iLok.
Cheers

Plugins of logic pro 9 don't open in logic pro x

I installed melodyne when I just had Garageband....it worked
when I installed FCP9 ....melodyne stopped loading, I installed vanguard at this stage
When I installed FCP X .....error was --> plugin not on your computer...now both melodyne and vanguard are missing plugins according to fcp x but it can't be as both these softwares work in other version of logic...plz help .....
Any solution please.......

hi, Stratquebec,
I have a question for you. I've got a MBP with similar specs as your iMac.2.1g core duo/2G Ram. I'm still on LP 8. How does LP9 run? I've read on these forums that 2G ram isn't enough.
As to why the 64 bit option is greyed out. I did ask some experts at the local apple store and they suggested that a 2.1G core duo and only 2G ram wouldn't be enough to run LP in 64 bit becauise the OS won't run 64 bit on this machine.
This could be incorrect, but at the time of writing, I have no definitive answers. Anyone know for sure?

MULTI OUTS for 3rd party plugins in Logic Pro (8)

Hi All,
I am using Logic Pro 8 on a dual g5 Mac and am trying to use a multi-channel and multi-timbral software instrument Spectrasonics Stylus RMX 1.5. This worked fine in Logic 7 but now I only have output A (a stereo output) and cannot assign to Aux channels in the enviroment window. Has any one come across the same problem ?
