Work with logic - not against it ( I learned now)

As an old user of logic, since way back I had BIG problems, when starting on 8.x.x
First I wanted everything to look N feel like before.
Tried all kind of tricks amoung other, to get rit of the transport bar ( former open trash, now 8.0.1 gone trick)
Even tried to import 7.x.x project and made them templates ( wanted two windows horizontly)( arrange+mixer/piano roll)
Now after a few days, I suddently found out..
Instead of "working against" logic, its much easier to "work with" logic.
And after accepting this, everything goes a lot faster..
especially the piano roll ( or other windows) open short cut, depending on what region you have highlightet, speed things up..
sorry for being so "old fashioned" and "stubburn", before I found out how to work "the way" apple/logic team want me to..
Their ideas is actually quite smart..
Still would like to work with more windows, get rit of transportbar, global track, the entire BIN
And instead get som more space
btw It would be nice to be able to be able to zoom in eg the EXS sampler..
All I need it for, is to load samples..
a short cut to "mini view" ( just the name of the samples loaded) would be greatly appriciated..

Running fine here, no crashes, plenty of horsepower to burn using lots of tracks, plugs, and 128 samples buffer size. Couple of the commonly reported minor bugs here and there. I like 8 much better than 7; breezier and simpler in many ways. I would agree that it required a mental adjustment initially. If your system is running as poorly as you say, your problem is not about Logic working "with" or "against," and you haven't yet experienced L8's intended functionality or design.
Rather than assume Logic is useless, you might check to see if your experience is common and therefore indicative of the software. For example, you ask why you should have to "go up to 1024 SPB, or whatever, to avoid this appalling behaviour" and the short answer is you shouldn't and most of us don't. Maybe there's a hardware or software conflict somewhere, or some components in the wrong folders, or maybe a problem with ram or a drive - these can be insidious.

  • Behringer UCA200 not working with Logic

    I recently received a Behringer 1222FX mixing board for christmas. It came with a UCA200 which is a little RCA-USB product. I want to use this board with Logic 9 but i can't seem to get it to work. I added a track and selected Input 1 but when i hit record the only sound that was recorded was from the internal computer speakers.
    I have already tried the board with Garageband and it worked fine. I was wondering if anyone would steer me in the right direction and help me get this to work with Logic.
    Please note that this question maybe simple to answer as I am new to Logic.
    Thank You

    Chance has it I just tested the UCA-200, and its' quality is very clearly inferior to my ancient Macs' built in 16 bits audio. So don't use it, use the Macs' own built in audio instead. Chances are that the BIA of your Mac is 24 bits (which Mac do you have?), whereas the UCA200 is only 16 bits. That thing is only an improvement if you have an old PC with 8-bits audio. Sorry Uli (Behringer).
    regards, Erik.

  • Melodyne 2.6 not working with Logic 7.1.1

    Hi,
    those of you who are using Melodyne with Logic and Tiger, does it
    work with the Bridge mode ?
    I've been trying it now with several different takes and all I get
    out of it is sort of a hummingbird like a whistle
    or pigs been strangled..take your pick..is it just me ??
    It's the 2.6.0.6 Bridge version with Logic 7.1.1 and Tiger 10.4.2.
    Thanks

    Wll first answering my own question I may have found out the culprit.
    After launching my mLan auto connector and looking at MIDI/Audio set up I found that even Logic was working allright with my 01X though it still insisted I was using Internal audio instead of mLan. After changing that, the first and so far only test, I was able to use Melodyne OK.
    Otherwise I repeat what others already said here that although Logic lists Melodyne 2.6.0.6 as incompatible it will work.
    I guess now that v3 is due out in about a month we'll never see the 2.6. updated to fully work with Logic 7.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Apple offered a refund for users who purchased Logic Pro 9 30 days or less before the Logic Pro X launch, but they don't do it anymore, so if you want to upgrade to Logic Pro X, you have to purchase it in the Mac App Store
    Part of this is incorrect...
    Some App Store employee's "accidentally" (but in good faith) issued refunds to a few users who had purchased Logic 9 within 30 days prior to the mid-July release of Logic-X. Word quickly came down from Apple HQ that this was against App Store policy and the practice was immediately stopped.
    To the original poster.. you never stood a chance, even if they were issuing refunds you didn't fall within the 30 day period.  There were many who purchased Logic 9 a few days before the LX release who did not get a refund.

  • Does mainstage work with logic express 9

    hi ,  do all the features and plug-ins work with logic express 9 or are some features disabled .
    or are they not compatible at all
    thanks

    I have just spoken to two supervisors and 4 underlings about this exact concern and they ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO BUDGE in regard to a sidegrade or smaller upgrade fee. I have been a loyal Mac user, ****, an EVANGELIST since 1990, spent well over 100 grand on the apple products I needed and I tried being super polite, explained that I had barely had a chance to learn a thing about Express since I bought it in the store after realizing that there was no way I could afford the Logic Pro 9 box sitting next to it.
    THE ANSWER IS IF YOU WANT THE NEW, CHEAPER VERSION OF LOGIC PRO 9 AND MAINSTAGE, YOU NEED TO TOSS OUT YOUR ALREADY CANCELLED LOGIC EXPRESS 9 DISKS, FORGET YOU BOUGHT THEM IF YOU CAN, AND, IF YOU WERE DOWNSIZED LIKE I WAS 3 YEARS AGO BECAUSE MY BACK GAVE OUT...
    GO AHEAD. SEE IF YOU CAN KEEP YOURSELF FROM THROWING UP WHEN YOU HIT THAT PURCHASE BUTTON ON THE TWO PROGRAMS THEY REDUCED IN PRICE.
    REMEMBER, THOUGH...IT IS NOT LOGIC STUDIO YOU ARE GETTING. THEY SPLIT THE BOX UP SO THE REMAINDER OF THE SOFTWARE IN IT WENT INTO FINAL CUT PRO. THE ORIGINAL BOX YOU CAN STILL GET FOR $500 UNTIL THEY SELL OUT.
    DON'T SHOOT THE MESSENGER. THIS IS ONE ANGRY EX-EVANGELIST WHO NO LONGER HAS ANY REVERENCE LEFT FOR APPLE. I GUESS WHEN THEY LOST STEVE, THEY LOST TOO MUCH. SOMETHING IS VERY, VERY WRONG ABOUT THIS POLICY. SCREW THE PEOPLE WHO SPENT THE WHOLE AMOUNT, NOBODY AT APPLE REALLY CARES ABOUT ANYTHING EXCEPT WHAT IS LEFT IN YOUR WALLET.
    SORRY FOR THE RANT, BUT I AM IN SHOCK AFTER THE LAST TWO HOURS OF TRYING TO GET THEM TO SEE HOW WRONG THIS POLICY IS.
    WE HAVE BEEN SHAFTED, BIG TIME. IN THIS ECONOMY, THAT IS ONE HUGE INSULT IMHO.
    GOOD LUCK EVERYONE.

  • Wha wha pedal work well with GarageBand but don't want to work with logic pro 9.1.8 on my MBPro end 2011

    Install on MacBook Pro end of 2011 with logic Pro 9.1.8 and Apogee GIO interface guitar
    The wha wha pedal work well with GarageBand but not working with Logic Pro
    Only the red light turning on and off at the screnn of the MBPro and on my Apogee GIO (Guitar Interface Midi) switch button but the effect wha wha won't work.
    HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND MY ENGLISH

    Pancenter...
    Yes... but I have come across some setups that came with a native SL (and even one Lion!) installation.. that somehow had a corrupted or older Prokit installed for some unknown reason... and given it's a quick fix to try.. I thought I'd mention it..
    I frankly don't think it is entirely a Prokit issue itself, but it wouldn't do any harm to try and install v7 just in case it is part of the problem...
    +1 on the UAD stuff....
    Also, at the time it crashed... according to the logs...the OP was running Ableton Live at the same time, presumably rewired with Logic... so add all that together with UAD plugins... and that's quite a load on the system...
    Finally in thread 32 there is a weird exception msg relating to the Trash2 plugin.. that I haven't seen before...
    Thread 32:
    0   libSystem.B.dylib      
    0x94c29afa mach_msg_trap + 10

    That might be nothing... but as i said, I haven't seen that one before and given what else is going on.. it might be involved too... or nothing to do with that at all!

  • How can I get an old Casio CTK-593 to work with Logic Express?

    Title pretty much says it all.
    I have a Fast Track USB from M-Audio to connect it to my pc but I don't know how to get it working with Logic.
    Thanks in advance.

    Did you check your connection with the audio-midi-setup.app in the programs/utilities folder of your MAC (not "pc" pls)?
    If you have a working MIDI connection, you'll need to open up a software instrument track within Logic to play Logic's instruments via your keyboard.

  • Will the m-audio project mix i/o work with Logic X?

    Hi,
    I have a m-audio project mix i/o interface/control surface.
    Will this work with Logic X?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    If it works now on 10.8.4, then yes. This depends on OS X and drivers (if needed), not on Logic. Logic can only 'see' hardware that the OS can see.

  • Will my m audio Project Mix work with logic x?

    Hi, just wondering if my M-Audio Project Mix I/O will work with Logic X. I am currently running Mavericks.

    If it works with any other CoreAudio based app on your Mac.. it should work fine with Logic Pro X as the key is .. if it is compatible with your OS X version. Its not about compatibility with Logic Pro X at all in reality... as LPX uses Core Audio which is part of OS X.
    So do you have it up and running in 10.9.2 and does it work with any other audio app? If so which one(s)?
    If you haven't tried yet, you may be out of luck as the last driver update for your device was way back.. for 10.7.4.... and some people had issues getting to work under Mountain Lion, let alone Mavericks...

  • Recording Interfaces that work with Logic Studio

    Hey there! I'm pretty much a noob to Logic Studio. I've been using garageband and reason 4 before that. I've had an M-Audio Fast Track that worked alright with Garageband, but it won't work with Logic, at least for me. I did some research and found out that this happened for most people.
    So I was wondering, what's a good recording interface that would work well with Logic (which should then work with garageband) that works very well and worth the money that's paid for it?
    Specs:
    Macbook Pro
    version 10.5.2
    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    Thanks alot.

    Welcome to the forum jareddddddd, i do believe the problem your having with the M-Audio is the the drivers for intel, at the moment are Beta drivers.
    Beta meaning they are going thought testing and isn't official drivers, therefore it might work or it might not.
    As flood123 said the Duet will be much better, compare to low end M-Audio interface, which will sound far better and integrates well with Logic.
    Also Fire-Face by R.M.E is a good interface, almost forget to mention Lavry interface which sounds way better than the two already mention that's only my opinion though.
    Personally i have found it to be my preferred choice compare to Apogee low end interface that hasn't got the C77 clock work that Apogee flag-ship interface has, such as the Rossette 800 and AD/DA 16 carries.
    Try and find a local music store and try out a few interface that is hook-up to L.P. by Fire wire and maybe you'll have a better choice in choosing.

  • I have East/West Symphony.  Will it work with Logic express and do I have to have that little red usb drive in the computer to authorize it?

    I have East/West Symphony. 
    Will it work with Logic express and do I have to have that little red usb drive in the computer to authorize it?
    Also, would it work with Garageband??

    Thanks-that's the same driver I'm using now.
    The M-audio techs were unable to tell me if Quattro would work with LE8, so I've been wasting my time and money trying to make it work.
    They also gave me conflicting opinions as to whether or not "tip" polarity was an issue when using an after-market adapter. One said definitely yes, one or two others said definitely no.
    Their phone tech line has a 20 to 40 minute wait when I call. The online support system is confusing, which even they admit. I don't think my next interface will be from M-audio.
    Thanks very much for the response, it helps me get beyond this phase.
    Is the Quattro of any use for anybody else (i.e., can I sell it or give it away)?

  • 01v96i Yamaha...will it work with logic pro X

    I bought the new Yamaha 01v96i Mixer but I can't make it works with Logic pro, in the list of available DAW I only find the 01v96 which is not the same and in-fact it does not work with the 01v96i.
    Does anyone have an idea on how to set Logic for it or at least does anyone know if the new Logic Pro X has the new 01v96i in the list?

    Lyford,
    Again, in regards to hardware... it is not about LPX compatibility.. It is about compatibility with the OS X version and it's CoreAudio... Once you 'get' that point then everything else makes sense...
    Tascam are notorious about leaving owners of "End of Line" products 'high and dry' when OS X is updated... and as you have found... the 1884 is not compatible with Mountain Lion 10.8.4 and likely will never be so... because Tascam will not be releasing Mountain Lion drivers for it.. so, it is not something you can use with LPX, which requires Mountain Lion 10.8.4 as a minimum requirement.
    As an aside, Apple have acknowledged they make an error in simply using the LP9 Hardware compatibility chart for LPX (as LP9 could be used with earlier OS X versions for which there were drivers for the 1884 for example) and have said they will be issuing an updated version "in the near future"......

  • HT5812 Will East West Quantum Leap SILVER work with Logic Pro X ?

    I wonder if EWQLSO SILVER edition will work with Logic Pro X. I can't think of any reason that it should NOT but if anyone tested please let me know. The software is quite old..
    Thanks

    it's worthwhile considering the VSL Special Edition, but check whether anyone else is running it on macbook, my iMac (also 4GB) is very happy with it, and some of the sounds are wonderful.
    Best

  • Will the Tascam FW-1884 work with Logic Pro X?

    Hello,
    I notice that the new Logic is 64 bit only and yet the Tascam FW-1884 is specifically listed as a supported control surface.
    Tascam has not released 64 bit drivers for this device!  Can anyone shed any light on this?  Will it work only as a control surface and not an audio interface?  Is the documentation in error?  Anyone have this working with Logic Pro X?
    Thanks,
