Hi, after using Logic 6.0 for a few hours, I did find a bug and a strange behavior of the project manager: - Fat bug: Logic does not load any plug in settings. When loading one, I get the name above the plug in (e.g. "wooden verb"), but the settings do not change at all. - Strange behavior of project manager: After scanning, most of my EXS instruments' file references seem to be unconsolidated in the project manager's browser window (there is a red arrow next to the aiff/wav files). This is a bit odd, because EXS loads the respective instruments/samples without any problems (there is no dialoge like "can't find samples"). I can reonsolidate the respective references manually or with the automaticc search function, but this takes ages for a large sample collection. Anybody experiencing similar problems? Best, TQ P.S.: Except the strange behavior mentioned above, project manager is a heaven sent. If you have a lot of instrument files and projects on your HD, this will save you hours of searching and organizing. I think Emagic used a bit of their Sound Diver experience for this part (?).

Someone posted a report about somthing like this last week and Michael Haydn responded with a fix/workaround. It's something to do with OSX file permisioning. > - Strange behavior of project manager: After scanning, most of my EXS > instruments' file references seem to be unconsolidated in the project > manager's browser window (there is a red arrow next to the aiff/wav files). > This is a bit odd, because EXS loads the respective instruments/samples > without any problems (there is no dialoge like "can't find samples").

This happened to me too - however I had moved all my EXS instruments and Samples from my Logic 5 folder to the OSX version of Logic 6. For the OS9 version, I've created an alias to them. In my case, I figured that this was why they were unresolved - the instrument probably saves a path to the files. If you read the LAMP6 adendum - it does say that Logic has always searched all drives for samples that aren't where they are supposed to be. This is probably why the EXS instruments still work. I would let the Project Manager resolve all the missing samples - you should only have to do this the once. It took about an hour or more on my machine - but it does now appear to know where they all are!!

After installing Logic 6 from the software cd vol. 6 a problem might occur regarding the Mac OS X access permissions of the plug-in settings files. As a result it is possible that the parameters of the plug-in setting are not updated. Immediate workaround: Duplicate the plug-in settings folder and delete the original folder. Solution: 1. The problem is fixed in the installer of software cd vol. 7 or higher. or 2.

At least the Project Manager was developed by Jens Altfelder, one of the SoundDiver module authors... -- Beste Gruesse - best regards, Michael Haydn - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dipl.-Inform.

Not being able to write settings is likely related to permissions issues. It is turning out that following major software installations (programs or updates), you should "Repair Permissions" using the Apple Disk Utility program. For instance, iMovie3 has some annoying behaviors until you repair. To do this, open the ADU program (Applications/Utilities/), click on the First Aid tab, click once to highlight the partition containing OSX, then click the Repair Disk Permissions button. Have a cup of coffee...
