I'm very new to the Logic Pro 6 software and I'm not getting any sound generated when playing the onboard instruments (Grand Piano). The music notes are showing up in the matrix window that are generated from a Radium 61 Midi Controller so I know it recognises that and I am using MOTU 828 mk2 as my firewire source. Is there a setting somewhere in the Logic program that I just don't see? Some advice would greatly be appreciated. Tom

Could be one of a thousand things, but try some of these- This may be too obvious, but under "Audio-->Audio Hardware and Drivers" make sure the 828mkII is selected in the pop-up menu in the CoreAudio driver... make sure the piano track isn't muted in the arrange window AND the channel isn't muted in the mixer window. (also make sure channel 1 isn't muted) Make sure the output of the track is routed in the mixer channel strip to the standard output going to your 828mkII (Output 1-2 or whatever your 828 says). When you play back your MIDI part, watch the meter on your 828mkII -if nothing is appearing in the meter, then there's something in Logic that needs to be changed - if you're getting a meter signal but no sound, you might check your amp and monitors, etc. GK

I am running Reason 2.5 on the same system (G5) and I get sound from it but for some reason no sound is coming out of Logic.

I remember something being funky with the 828 and the output assignment. George www.utopiaparkwaymusic.com Now both Mac OSX and Windows XP... the only way to fly ;-)

Onboard Grand Piano? Sounds like you're on one of the default GM MIDI tracks and have nothing as a sound module. Try changing to an "Audio Instrument" track and putting one of the built in synthesizers in the bottom plug-in slot, like the ES M. Have you read the Getting Started manual? It should be in the box that came with Logic. -- Ben Harrison http://mumble.sectionz.com
