It's telling you that you need to zoom in closer before you can use the pencil tool. You need to be at a pretty high zoom resolution before the pencil will become active. Ian Ian G.

Is it worth investing in? I bought Powerkeys before realising that it can't be used without buying a new keyboard (if you have a new style apple one) by the time I'd done that, I'd spent enough to have bought one of the replacement key kits (see this month's Sound On Sound review) and that would have given me coded access to a lot more of the keyboard (the Powerkeys kit sticks round the edges so it doesn't highlight things in the middle) Frankly I think the powerkeys kit is very expensive for what amounts to sticky labels. I also find that it tries to hard to do to much and as a consequence I have to keep looking at the key coding strips to work out which modifier key I need to achieve the result I'm looking for.

Just so you also know: you'll be able to tap off the ports from the Physical Input in Gold or Platinum, but it's still not going to be possible to record the ports separately - for recording you're still stuck with a merged-to-16-channels scenario. There are potential workarounds for that too, but they're not pretty. And multitrack midi recording in Logic is a pretty awful kludge. If designating "tracks X, Y, and Z always record ports/channels A1, B1 and C1, regardless of what track is currently selected" for multiple simultaneous midi sources is extremely important for your working style, Logic is probably not the app for you.

Hello group : I recorded a few songs without click , but now I want to add somme programming ( can´´t resist ... ) and I need to have the proper tempo changes to add loops and stuff . I tried to play a click with one of the tunes , but I have to adjust each hit ( no laughs please ) to make it happens . At bar 25 I realized it will be better to ask here before . Here go the questions : Does reclock works properly if the click track is properly adjusted ? Is there a way that somebody discovered to use the drum tracks to generate midi and then use that as click track ( deleting the unuseful notes , of course )... maybe aplying filters to the kick and snare just to make them clear to the audio to midi converter... Anyone tried reclock seriously ?... and get results... regards and thanks

Lets look at each one.. 1st. In OSX you have no control over making your processors do anything. OSX is optimized for dual processors, so you only see the one meter for audio. 2nd. OS9 in single processor mode. 1st, open you audio drivers prefs. Check the dual processor support. reboot. you will then have 2 meters, an audio meter with 2 level meters, and the one disc I/O meter, which will look the same but will be thicker. OS9 dual mode meters are as follows.. The audio meter is divided into 2 parts.. 1st midi graphics, live inputs, busses. 2nd meter, audio dsp. The fat meter is disc I/O and is to let you know how much data is being streamed from the hard disc to the app. Now the way to make your computer work with all the available dsp is to add an I/O helper to an audio track, which will make it appear as a live input to Logic, and it will use the 1st half of the audio meter.. Hope this helps..

With the 001 *all* tracks are native... So I don't quite get the distinction DAE versus native... I have the feeling that the distinction you're making would be similar to using Logic with DAE and DIO simultaneously -- one for audiosuite, the other for interleaved native processing. Unfortunately, you can't use DAE and DIO at the same time though... > --- but, the file that you're processing w/ >AudioSuite must be non-interleaved. The easiest solution at the time was to just give up on audiosuite and be happy with Logic's stuff instead :-). This makes me curious though: did anyone ever get the 001 to work reliably with DAE in Logic...? Pro's, cons? -- Hendrik Jan Veenstra <h@...> Omega Art: http://www.omega-art.com/

You do need to use the click track though, and not try to tap in the tempo live. Creating a clicktrack is also quite easy -- just hit a key every quarter, and then adjust some off-beat notes, reclock, basta. I don't know how well audio-to-midi would work for clicktracks -- you'll just have to give that a try (that's the best way to learn things, isn't it, by just experimenting :). -- Hendrik Jan Veenstra <h@...> Omega Art: http://www.omega-art.com/

Hi Everyone. Just an update-- we got it to work. The problem was that we had updated from a previous version of Logic, and the new 4.8 app was placed outside the old 4.1 folder. Once we put the application inside the 4.1 folder and started it, the ASIO folder with our driver was immediately found. Simple, huh? That's why it took so long to figure out. =-) Cheers, Blue

What is the point of this? Does "punch on the fly" take more memory or something? And why the use of record toggle as well. I seem to have no glitches when only using "punch on the fly" checked. Hmmmm, guess I'll have to check the manual and do a little experimenting...but my manual is about 20 years old so.... HA! But seriously...what is the point...don't we always want smooth recording without glitches... Ken Kirk www.waxthedecks.com

Hi, Im importing midi files to LAW 4.7 and then trying to print out the score. I can hear lots of notes which I cant see in the music score. (the notes are there in the events list too) Anyone know how to make them visible? bye, EC

Hi List, I have a Proteus 1 and last night I found that in the v5 multisets a multi-instrument for the Pro 1 was made. The maker has it set up for 2 banks, one for sounds 0-127, the second for sounds 128-191. Here is the catch though: the Pro1 doesn't respond to the second bank changes. It still selects the first bank, for example even if I select sound 128, the Proteus changes to sound 0. I'm not surprised by the Proteus behavior since I read in the manual that the Pro1 cannot "normally" access program change numbers over 127 and that you can "re-map" the sounds using the MASTER MENU of the Proteus, but you can only assign 127 different sounds to the 127 program change numbers. (You know, like the Proteus 1 was made before "new" MIDI banks were made?) Ok, so providing that my rambling above makes sense to somebody here are my actual questions: 1) Is there a way in the Environment to "add" value to the program change and make the Proteus 1 select those 128-191 patches? 2) If not then why was does the multiset for the Pro1 even include the second bank? Is it just for my ease of use if I did want to remap some of the sounds inside the Pro1? I suspect that question 1 can't be done, but then again, the Pro 1 manual later says that "Banks may be requested using the preset request command and the appropriate preset code listed below" And also maybe the Environment gurus out there can help a novice like me. Well, my long post is over now...hope I didn't forget anything ... and hope I was clear in what I am looking to do. Regards, Ken kirk www.waxthedecks.com

With punch on the fly enabled, Logic is always recording for any record-enabled tracks, even while just in "play" mode. Then when you hit record it defines a region start in the Arrange, and when you hit stop it defines a region end. If you play and punch in/out a few times, then lengthen the region boundaries after recording you'll see that it was actually recording the whole time. So having punch on the fly enabled can make for much larger audio files than you might expect, depending on how long you let it roll before/after a punch.

Hi, just wondering if some one could help me with a question? If I have a roland v drum kit hooked into my midi ports, how can i seperate the snare, toms, and hi hats from each other. Actually I havent tried anything with this yet, so if everyone thinks it will just do it on its own, let me know, that would be great, although not likely. Thanks again

Although I won't bet money on it, I'm pretty sure one of the first OSX versions of Logic actually had 2 meters for audio. But there was a bug so the second meter disappeared.

It also means that you can capture that magical 'run through' take after the event. Just punch in at some point and after you've stopped drag the front of the audio object back to the beginning. I use this approach all the time - I only make the decision on what to keep after I've heard most of it. (it helps stop the "Main Vox 3,267" thing:-) mallen
