(Logic 4.7) The easiest method: select a fader, copy, paste. Make sure you have "Protect Cabling/Positions" unchecked in the View menu of the window. now select the new fader, and in the parameter pane (left side of window) change the Cha parameter to "Track 17" (18, 19, etc). Or: press Option while picking New from the File menu. Logic will create a song that's _not_ based on your Autoload, and will create every possible Audio object (mixer strip). Now just select the Audio objects you need, copy, open your Autoload (just press Cmd-N), and paste the copied objects in the Audio Mixer. If there's no Track 17 and up available: go to Audio Hardware & Drivers (main menu: Audio) and change the "Max number of Audio Tracks" for your audio driver. You might have to relaunch Logic for the changes to take effect. -- Hendrik Jan Veenstra h @ k n o w a r e . n l Omega Art: http://www.omega-art.com/

After a long absence from the world of midi and making music on a computer, I recently picked up Logic 6, Reason and an M-Audio 410 interface. After a big initial "huh!" I think I have at least a basic understanding of how Logic works... that environment thing really took me for a loop. WIth at least the "basics" going so far, and a workable "Autoload" file created, loaded in some old midi files, and recorded some midi and audio tracks. Now, I have come up with a few questions that I am hoping some folks here can help me out with. I had no problem setting up Reason via "Rewire." However, I find that I would like to skip the Reason mixer, and just have one "virtual" mixer in logic. I understand how to cable the Reason instrument to an individual output and route that to a fader in Logic. Problem is that most instruments I am dealing with have stereo outs, which end up on two separate Logic faders. How can I get this operate as one stereo fader in Logic? (I have some ideas, but want to do it the best way) I picked up Reason simply because of the "virtual instrument rack." In playing around with Logic, I am noticed the EXS 24 sampler demo. While is doesn't seem to have as wide a selection of instruments (is this a limit of the demo?), I liked the piano and some other sounds. Also like the way it is integrated into Logic - very easy to use. I am mainly interested in "traditional" sounds - piano, bass, guitar, drums, strings, etc. Would the exs24 be considered a "must have" or is reason enough? Is the sample list in the demo all that is included? If so, is there much of reasonable quality available on the net for free? (I know that there are tons of samples available for purchase, but the budget doesn't allow.) Well, that should be enough for now. I am trying a RTFM approach to answer most of my other questions. As that fails (what a whacky manual) I will probably return with more questions. Any other beginner tips or tricks are most welcome. --Joe
