Good day, I wonder if someone can help please. .... I am using Logic Silver 4.8.1 on PC. What I always seem to get is some strange flanging type effect on MIDI drum tracks ... this happens with whichever module I use (Korg N1R, Boss DR-670 or Roland TD-6). If I get MIDI data into logic a recorded from trigger inputs on the TD-6, use a keyboard or manually place notes in the matrix editor, the problem persists. I don't seem to have this trouble with any other MIDI instrument sounds. Is there some setting in Logic? Send notes twice on Ch 10?? If I play MIDI files in windows media player, it's ok. If I play drum samples on the devices using direct hardware MIDI connections, it's ok. That's why I wonder if it's something in Logic, the problem seems to only be the case when I fire drum sounds with MIDI from Logic! Any ideas please? Thanks Robert Bowman PS: Sorry I never post anything constructive here, a newbie is what I am.

Your drummodule or keyboard sends midi directly to the 'soundengine' of the drummodule or keyboard. So it will receive the midi-information twice (also from the sequencer). I think that that's the solution, but it could be something else.

Just to let you know, I've sorted it out. In case you're curious, my environemnt was setup with synth objects connected to interface objects. I had foolishy assigned the MIDI port on both the synth object and the interface object on the drum machine synth. Hmmmmmmpf. Taking the port off my drum machine synth object now results in good sounding drum loops and not a bunch of jet aeroplanes taking off!! Thanks very much for your help. Regards Robert
