Hi, I want to listen to some mono voice that's recorded at 22K, in Logic Pro 7, and the only way I've found to do it is to start a new project and set the 'automatic SR conversion on import' when a brand new project is created. Then 22K changes to 44K (my chosen song rate) when imported and all is fine. But I'd assume there's a place somewhere I can set this function for existing songs/projects? If so, I can't find it, and all the 22K files I pull into older songs sound like chipmunks. Which is amusing for the first few seconds, but.... Steven Rowat

Using Logic Pro 8 I can no longer see or edit controller data in the Piano Roll Hyper Draw area. The data are there (as shown in the event list). I tried closing and reopening the project, quitting and restarting Logic, selecting different midi channels within Hyper Draw. All to no avail. Still can't draw or see anything in the HD area. One thing, though: it works fine in a new file! Does anyone have an explanation or, preferably, a solution?

Just a quick question, Has anyone noticed increased latency moving from Logic 7 to Logic 8? We used the Tascam US-428 and it was usable on Logic 7. With Logic 8 it seems no matter what I do the latency is just really high and unplayable for virtual instruments and not usable for recording with effects, i.e. a guitar through Guitar Amp. It was fine with Logic 7 and some tweaks. Any thoughts? iMac CoreDuo 2Ghz 2GB RAM Logic 7&8 Thanks, Michael

Can the Digi 002R aggregate nicely with either the RME Fireface 800 or Apogee Ensemble using the CoreAudio drivers? Digi's CoreAudio drivers are horrible, but hopefully at least this works! f-erenc szabo, smarty pants Z+E+R+O+B+E+A+T "NOW POWERED BY THE MIRACLE OF THE TRANSISTOR!" <http://home.goodmedia.com/~zerobeat>

It turns out that there was more than one region on the track. When only one region is selected the data show up in Piano Roll's Hyper Draw. So, if you have this problem, don't click the track to select a region to work on, click the region itself.

Ah, I forgot to mention that we were OS 10.4.9 and before upgrading to Logic 8, switched to OS 10.4.10. I hope that isn't the culprit...

Two things: 1. I'm curious how the timing of this group buy works. If I sign up, will I need to wait until November 14 plus transit time to actually use the software (Speakerphone)? My assumption is yes, but I thought I'd ask. 2. I'd like to know for sure that Speakerphone works nicely with Logic 8 on an Intel processor running Leopard. As there is no demo (understandably, considering the size), I can't verify myself. Thanks much, droo

Can't answer the Intel/Leopard question, but I can tell you it's pretty cool on a G5 running Tiger in L8. Just used it on vocals on a project and it was very nice. I have Leopard on my iMac, but I'm holding off on the G5 Logic computer until I hear that all the dust has settled on plugs and drivers. James

Yes, once the group buy finishes, payment information will be sent out to all subscribers. As soon as Audiease have received payment, the software will be shipped. Alternatively, you can opt to download - Rocket Science and Nautilus aren't so big, but Speakerphone is 4.5 Gigabytes, worth considering before opting for one delivery method over the other ... kind regards Mark Cahill

Could someone please quote the link content (copy the text at the link, then post it here) that was working Oct 21 (it's not working the 31st). Here's the broken link: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum06642 The link should be addressing the question how or if an xskey is needed after an upgraded Logic Studio 8 install. Thanks all.

Hi, am new to Logic and have what may be a noob q. Using Kurzweil K2600XS as MIDI controller (through MOTU Fastlane USB), MacBookPro (Intel), Logic Studio (8). Seemingly at random, notes will 'hang' as no note-off will be sent. Happens when tracking in Logic as well as in Mainstage. In Kurzweil's MIDI XMIT page, the "Panic" softbutton doesn't do anything...although of course Logic's Caps Lock keyboard "ESC" will send an all notes off command. 1) Is there something I can do to get the Kurzweil to more accurately XMIT the data? Is this an Environment "transformer" thing? I'm a complete noob to Logic and therefore haven't spent any time understanding the Environment, but read in the EVP88 section about a transformer to tailor velocity response...don't know if this is apples/oranges. 2) Is there a way to assign a "Panic" button to the Kurzweil...or get Logic to listen to the Kurzweil's? I need it if I'm going to use Mainstage live. I've called Kurzweil to see if they have an answer too. If this is really too noob a q for this group, just let me bluntly know as I won't be offended, but thanks for any help in advance. Tim

Subject says it all. In global Preferences/ Display "Others" tab I set the Piano Roll to "Bright Background Colours and nothing happens. I also set the the same in the actual Piano Roll Menu and it changes - BUT- save that as a template, Quit and re launch Logic and load the template and it's all back to dark including the global preference. Can you Guys confirm this behaviour? ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Paul Najar Jaminajar Music Production www.jaminajar.com

Ian, I didn't actually make any comment about whether it was a - worthwhile- thing to "split" or not so why your "on the contrary"? What you've said is not contrary to anything I've said or implied IMO. All that aside and now that you bring it up, I'm with George Ledger on this one, In 27 years of recording and mixing music, independent L & R processing has been required maybe 5 times, and if it were ever required it's an extremely trivial task to split an interleaved file. Take a look at the bottom two commands in the Audio Bin Local Edit menu. Further to this, I find myself often interleaving two mono recordings like a double tracked acoustic/ electric guitar track for ease of plugin processing without having to resort to a bus or Aux.

Does anyone know how to make Hide All Regions the default in Audio Bin? I've tried adding some audio data to my templates then Hiding the regions, deleting the audio and re-saving, but show all regions is still the default. This is a PITA as the latest audio file is always the last and I have to Unhide every time I go in. Cheers Clive Young

I have a lab at the school where I work that is running Logic Studio on 25 Intel Mac Pros. Each workstation has an external USB MIDI Interface (Emagic MT-4 or Edirol UM-3EX), which is connected to a MIDI Keyboard and external synthesizer. The problem is that some of the workstations (10 of the 25) have an M-Audio Axiom49 MIDI Keyboard that is connected to the external USB MIDI Interface by MIDI cables, but is also connected to the workstation directly by USB to provide power to the keyboard. This causes double notes being input into Logic, as the M-Audio keyboards are sending MIDI notes through the MIDI cable to the external USB MIDI Interface, as well as directly through the USB connection to the computer (via the USB MIDI interface built into the M-Audio keyboard itself). I want all the workstations in the room to communicate over MIDI cables, through the external USB MIDI interfaces. One solution would be to power all the M-Audio MIDI keyboards via external power adapters rather than by USB, but I would rather not have to buy these power adapters. I can't see anywhere in the Apple Audio MIDI Setup utility where I can remove/delete/disable the auto-detected USB MIDI interface that is built into the M-Audio keyboards, and I can't see anyway of blocking this MIDI data within Logic. Any ideas on how to remove this USB MIDI interface from Audio MIDI setup, or to block the data from within Logic?

So I'd suggest that it is an esoteric >requirement. Ah, but anyone afflicted (like myself) with the habit of recording a vocal and guitar track together as the song bed track (in an attempt to find emotional and timing authenticity sometimes lacking in dubbed projects), and wishing to process the vocal mike side separately from the guitar mike side, will want this. But doesn't this work fine anyway in Logic? I run two copies of stereo file through two different audio object tracks, with a copy of the stereo file set on "left" in one track and "right" in the other track. Then different processing can be applied each, and/or send to different busses, etc. Steven Rowat

Simon, I assume your Logic setups load up by default with some kind of autoload template? In this template go to the midi environment window and you will see a big object called "Physical Input" On this device you'll notice a cable node available for every midi input port - USB or midi - available on your systems. You'll notice that the top cable from "Sum" is connected through a keyborad and midi monitor object and then onto the "Sequencer Input". To stop any one of these "nodes" midi data from being passed to the Sequencer Input you simply connect it's specific node to a dummy midi object like a midi Monitor (created from the New Menu). Doing this takes that input only OUT of the Sum input. This is how you would achieve this task inside Logic. Otherwise you could use a separate program called MidiPipe <http://homepage.mac.com/ nicowald/SubtleSoft/> to hijack the required midi ports so Logic does not see them at all.

Why would you interleave a vocal mic & guitar mic? ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Paul Najar Jaminajar Music Production www.jaminajar.com

In L8 trying to edit time sigs from the lists window exhibits some strange behaviour on my system... for example if you create 2 signature changes 1 bar apart the first 2/4, the second 4/4, highlight the second and then click drag to a new bar position, it results in a movement of 2 bar increments (I guess this is Logic trying to relate 4/4 to 2/4) but if you want to get it back to being 1 bar from the 2/4 position you can't. Trying to do that now gives bizarre results like both signatures jumping to completely different bar positions or the second time sig disappearing completely??? This seems to happen with both click dragging and data entry. I might add that this is in a very large project originally created in L7.... Just checked in a new vanilla L8 template... behaviour is the same Logic Pro 8.... 10.5 MacPro Dual Quad 3 ghz Keith If you tried to give rock & roll another name, you might call it 'Chuck Berry'.
