Re: [Logic_Cafe] Help setting up Logic Pro 8 using M-Audio

2008-03-16 by GAmoore@aol.com

I am doing this from memory but as I recall ... hook up the midi interface to 
the computer and power it up if its not bus powered.
on the mac, open the audio-midi utility. you might need to create a new setup 
and have it scan the system. it should find your midi interface.

now open Logic. open the environment window. go to the page with midi icons 
(forgot the name now but its not the mixer page). create a new 
multi-instrument. select several or all of the midi channels (1...16) so they don't have 
diagonal lines through them. then select the overall item (so none of the 
individual channels is selected) then rename it "Roland" or whatever. In the inspector 
area, choose the midi port that corresponds to your m-audio and its port.

you can check it by selecting the track on the arrange page of Logic, and 
play the keyboard and you should hear something. if you select a virtual 
instrument track, define it as ES1 or whatever, then play the keyboard and it should 
play that sound instead of the keyboard sound.

Of course, you have to set the keyboard to "midi only" mode. Also you have 
the output of the keyboad and computer going to a mixer and monitor system of 
some sort.
