I also use the AMT8 which I find great. i also use a Proteus 2000 and a Proteus 1 with midi - they are just two units I like despite the fact that i use a lot of Audio instruments. I have done all the 'cs' updates to date - and like you say i think the Digi 002 is a great sounding device and i still want to use it. Maybe if i used the Digi 002 for Midi that may help...

So I'm using 6 different multi instruments for User/Preset Patches Expansion Patches Card Patches User/Preset Rhythm Expansion Rhythm Card Rhythm The drawback of this method is that you have to be careful not to select same MIDI channels for 2 or more of these multi instruments - they are actually the same hardware (=sharing the same MIDI port), so every time you select those tracks the XV alters its sound (if you set the program number in Logic's parameter box). The custom bank messages for the XV and expansion boards are written in XV's (and maybe expansion boards') manual. (If not, contact Roland.) Each expansion board has an unique bank select number, no matter where you install it. So, the object I made for Expansion (Asian instruments, etc) is probably useless for you, sorry. You can set multi instruments' bank messages at Environment>Options>Define Custom Bank Messages Tatsuo

Hi. How can I use the 8 digital tracks of the 002R with Audio Logic? I'm not able to see them in the mixer of the software. Tanks

I just saw this, think about it, the license are not the same. What happen between 6 and 7 will not occur again. you be able to upgrade to LP 8. I don't see alot of people offering acad upgrades. This is where Apple can get you. Get an old logic on ebay, its the way to go.

Hi all, When using an outboard reverb-unit (compressor or something else) do you run the signal through it and record the new processed audio... or do you prefer putting in an aux send-return loop and stay within Logic? Thanks! Irving.

I'm still on LA 6.3.1 from the Big Box, but in it there's a main menu selection under (I think) Audio called EXS24 Instrument Editor. Selecting it will bring up an Open dialog box. Navigate to the .exs file you want to edit and open it. You get the Editor window that Peter was talking about, where you can assign different EXS outputs to the instrument groups as you want. I don't have GarageBand though, so I don't know if this will work with its instrument files. YMMV. However, I haven't been able to get this to work for me (all drums still come through main outputs), although I have confirmed in earlier postings that this is indeed the correct method. Arch

However, I haven't been able to get this to work for me (all drums still come through main outputs), although I have confirmed in earlier postings that this is indeed the correct method. Arch Well, the 1st thing to understand (took me a while too,I want to thank Peter Ostry for his last post on the subject)) is that a "Multi Instrument" needs multiple "Aux Out". So, once you've selected your EXS inst as "Multi" (a drum kit I bet!!..),go into the Environment (Audio layer) and create as many Aux Out you need (menu "new"->select Audio Object -> double click it -> go into its parameter window -> select Cha. to Aux "x"). You've now built the sub-mixer that the Multi Inst requested. THEN you can open the EXS's edit window and the big work (pain in the ass!) can start (if somebody knows a short cut!?). You'll have to assign each zone to its aux channel. For this,my tip would be to select (click-shift) first all zones which will go to one aux,(they will appear open in the below window),so you'll just have to check the EXS Output check box and assign the correct aux out . After that,you should be done,you'll just have to set up the new sub-mixer to your taste. Good luck, Alain

Dear all here's the problem: i make a new song, i work with it, edit all the different tracks, record some lines (midi, audio, etc) no problem at all. (i'm able to play and hear all the instruments, soundmodules etc) but after working with that song for couple of days, suddenly i'm not able to make new recordings within that song. i'm still able to listen to the tracks etx. but if i try to redo some parts and record new stuff... it won't work! even to play and hear my instruments is not possible. (at that point i opened a new song, and everything was fine. in the fresh song i could play and hear all my instruments) it seems to me, that suddenly the midi-data doesn't get into logic. has anyone heard of similar problems? for any hints, suggestions, help - thank you daniel

Once you've split the midi notes, just create a new audio instrument with another EXSP and the same patch loaded for each drum you want individual control over. Then just route those split tracks to their own EXSP instance. This is wasteful of RAM, but will work fine.

Hi All.. I'm an OS9 mainstay who's finally given into Tiger and made a big jump from all-time fave Logic version 3.5 (!!) to Express 7.1 and am wondering where the key commands for 'Split Audio at SPL' and 'Split by Locators' are? Also trying to catch up on whether VST plug-ins are going to be supported or have been patched? Appreciate any help offered. Michael

I don't know Express. Has it a Key Commands window? Then open it (usually with [alt]K) and type "split" or "spl" in the upper right search field. That should show you the shortcut and you can assign or change it there. > Also trying to catch up on whether VST plug-ins are going to be > supported or have been patched? No more VST today. Best to buy the VST-AU wrapper from FXpansion ($99), a program which makes virtually all VST's playable. It is a proven tool. Another way would be to run a second audio application which takes VST's and communicate over WormHole for example. But that is far more complicated and adds latency. ___ Peter Ostry

Hi, I need advise. I am planning to upgrade my entire rig to a simple M-Audio Ozonic keyboard & a Mac Powerbook G4. I will probably use a regular sound module midi to Ozonic.

Our set up is a Motu 828 MK II sound card with an external firewire hard drive plugged into it and the MOTU is plugged into the computer through an other firewire cable. Just today after getting set we turned on our computer and started up logic express 7 and tried playing a song. With in a few seconds we recieved an error that said "Error while trying to syncronize Audio and Midi", and some strange high pitch noises started coming out of our moniters, but the channal strips showed that the song was playing normally, besides for this Error. We have recieved this once before and after restarting the computer the problem went away. We have restarted 4 times already and shut of our MOTU with the computer still on after dragging the hard drive to the trash about 5 times. I tried looking in the some of the preferences and just can't find out what is going on. Can someone please help us out soon. We are recording a CD and have dont everything except for Vocals, and we were planning to finish those with in the next couple days. This CD has already been set back by months before and we can't afford an other set back. Please help us right away. Thank you. Ben

Dear Logicians, Logic Pro 6.4.3 Roland JV2080 Roland Kybd Exr-3 I have written a trio for live instruments (2 sax) and Synth musician, who will be using his Exr-3 keyboard. He will both PERFORM (pads) and TRIGGER midi sequences performances (one per movement). Each sequence performance will contain 3 or 4 patches. I am attempting to import midi sequences composed in Logic (and Jv 2080) to the Exr-3. The Exr has a usb cable, which enables me to see its song files in a folder within a removable drive icon showing on my Mac desktop. My problem: In Logic, I seem only able to create a general-midi control change message at the beginning of each sequence (arrange page > view > hyperdraw > program change). I need to send the correct control change messages (msb/lsb?) to select the correct banks as per the exr's manual in order for the desired exr-3 patch to be chosen. Example: the desired exr-3 patches are listed in the exr manual as: Log Drum 50 13 24 2 Kalimba 436 109 0 2 Standard Drum 1 PC 1 (CC32-2) I'm baffled. :-[ Please help--hope I expressed this clearly!

I'm sorry to disappoint you but a lot of the key commands aren't in Express. That's part of why it's Express and not the full pro version. Sorry. Cheers Hans

Do you have it on a UPS or electricity conditioner? Unplugged Switch the voltage meter back and forth. Then plug back in. Try that. Erick

But didn't I read somewhere that they had gone out of their way to removing bugs assosiated with having several songs open simultaneously? Add to this sync glitch the fact that exs intruments in the top-most song is automatically copied down to exs instruments situated on the same instrument slots of songs in the back (was that understandable?) and it seems almost useless. Rant rant. A fix of these bugs is nr 1 on my wishlist. Thanks a lot Terry! Ginge
