Work in the box or not with my setup?

New Logic user here...
I've moved up to a G5 with Logic Pro after spending years on a G4 with VST.
I have a 32 channel Mackie desk and used to run 16 tracks into my two delta's and 16 tracks back out again. All of the effects etc were run from auxes and inserts on the desk so the G4 was acting as a tape recorder and I use a finalizer for mixes.
Logic 8 has all of those features built in and I'm thinking, should I use the 'box' now and will my G5 handle it without falling over. I record full bands live and so far it's been great even with two sound cards(aggregate)that aren't well known to work in that setup, but I still add effects and master out of the box.
Any help or advice would be great.
Tony

Do whichever works for you.
Personally, I like the recallability of in the box, and the FX are mostly as good as hardware boxes unless you have the really good stuff (high end Lexicons, Eventides etc).
Try working on projects both ways, and working out for yourself which is the preferred work method for you - the only person who can really answer that is you...

    I ordered my new S5 online and after following the steps outlined in exact order, my old phone no longer works and the S5 will not authenticate.  Now I have no phone and I am becoming frustrating.
    It downloaded all my contacts, photo's with no problem.  I called the number they gave me from my old phone and then turned it off.  I then put the sim card in and charged the phone.  I followed all the setup steps and no I cannot send any text or make any phone calls.  I get a message that they cannot authenticate my phone to dial #8899 but get the same message.

        Hello Notahappycamper1962
    Let's get that S5 up and running! I want you to love the S5! Is the old device powered off? What zip code are you in?
    I look forward to hearing from you and getting this addressed.

  • I received an error "iTunes requires 64-bit mode" says to go into my iTunes application and 'uncheck' the 'open in 32-bit mode' checkbox - i went into the application and the box was not checked anyway so why am i getting this prompt?  Never happened b4

    i received an error message "iTunes requires 64-bit mode" says to go into my iTunes application and 'uncheck' the 'open in 32-bit mode' checkbox - i went into the application and the box was not checked anyway so why am i getting this prompt?  Never happened before. yesterday did the sofware update for maverick.

    Thank you for your response, Chris. But I'm afraid I have to disagree. There are native 64 bit versions of iTunes available for OSX and Windows.
    In a 64 Bit Windows environment native 64 Bit Applications install the DLL's in a directory called "Program Files" and a directory called "Program Files (x86)" (32 Bit applications only use the ladder).
    iTunes 9 is consistent with this behavior - and it identified itself to the system as a 64 bit application (meaning it's process appears without a "*32" tag on it).

    We are a retail shop which has a copy of AppleCare Protection plan. The box is not sealed. How can I tell if the product has been registered or not.

    Since the only thing needed in that box is the small piece of paper with the (very long) registration code on it (usually found inside the booklet), see if that is actually there and, if it is, call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask to be transferred to the Applecare department. Here is the link to the Applecare plan - just in case you may need it, see the fax numbers listed under para. 9 (Cancellation).

  • The scroll function on my mousepad is disabled when viewing a pdf file in firefox version 5.0. The scroll works on the pdf, but not on the other tabs. When the pdf is closed, the scroll function returns to normal. Any ideas?!

    The scroll function on my mousepad is disabled when viewing a pdf file in firefox version 5.0. The scroll works on the pdf, but not on the other tabs. When the pdf is closed, the scroll function returns to normal. Any ideas?!

    Hey thanx for the help, it worked like a charm.
    I think firefox changed the application lay out, as I used to be able to choose my PDF opener from the list at " Adobe Acrobat Forms Document' where I could choose Nitro-PDF reader, but it has now moved all the way to the bottom like you suggested to the obvious place of "Portable Document Format" section.
    If someone didn't tell me , I wouldn't have scrolled all the way down to be able to find it... it really should be with all its cousins up the top...
    Cheers again..

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 AirPlay Mirroring is compatible with Mid 2011 and newer MacBooks Air, and OS X Mountain Lion.
    As you have Mac OS X Snow Leopard, you haven't got a compatible MacBook Air, so you can't use AirPlay Mirroring. However, you can use a third-party app as AirParrot to mirror the MacBook onto your Apple TV > http://www.airparrot.com

    As for tracking the source of your problem your applet sucks.
    Try e.printStackTrace() on a cought exception and check the (full) trace.
    url=new URL("http://www.developpez.com");
    Unless yor applet is on www.developpez.com this will throw an exception in an unsigned
    applet without special policies.

    Which files do you have in the defaults\pref folder in the Firefox program folder?
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    See also "Other solutions":
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 22.0: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

    After i empty trash (the secure empty doesn't work either), the system does not reclaim the free space.
    I need to run the erase free space option from the disk utility every time...which is really annoying and time consuming.
    Any ideas how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance =)

    There is a thing in iPhoto whereby the first time you delete a photo it asks if you want to delete or just remove from the album, something like that.  Unfortunately it is one of these things with a "don't ask me again" checkbox.  Now, "deleting" photos only removes them from the album they are in.  To actually trash them I must then go to "all photos" and find them, to send them to the trash.   To help find them, what I do is rename them zzz or something, so sorting them will get them to the bottom of my collection.  Just maybe your photos are still lurking around?

    The USB ports on my 30" Cinema HD display appear to not work.  The monitor has not been used for almost a year, when I upgraded to a new Mac Book Pro and the 27" retina display.  Now I need to move the computer back and forth between two locations using the two displays.  The need for operating USB ports is essential.  Any ideas.  The display appears entirely normal.  Am running OS X 10.9.

    Have you tried a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?

    Hi Tiri2014,
    There are some differences between Remote PowerShell and Exchange Management Shell. You cannot use the pipeline when you run some cmdlets by using Remote PowerShell.
    Here’s a link to similar case for your reference:
    Error message when you try to pipe the result of a cmdlet into another cmdlet by using Remote Powershell in Office 365 dedicated: “The input object cannot be bound to any parameters
    for the command”
