EXS24 question

EXS24 question

2006-01-31 by smilesp11

Hi,

This may be an obvious question, but being new to LP, I need you 
expert people's help.

I've noticed that for each Instrument track that uses EXS24, a new 
instance is brought up. Can EXS24 be setup to be used as multi-channel 
instrument?

Thanks, in advance.

Arpeggio

2006-02-22 by S P

Hi,
I'm hoping that someone helps me with a basic question.
How do I use the Arpeggio 'instrument' in the Environment on one sound module. I have four sound modules, but I want to use the Arpeggio on one instrument at a time.
Thx in advance,
-Sam-

Hi Sam, simply create an arp object in same the environmental layer  
as the synth (or synth object, not sure what your using!) and cable  
it up. If you make sure the 'icon' box is ticked it should appear on  
the list of available objects in the arrange page view. NOTE it won't  
work unless you have logics clock running (ie you have to hit play ;-)

Logic Pro Recording Problem ??

2006-02-22 by Dave Shirk

Hope someone can help!

	Out of the blue, we set up to transfer 9 tracks
via 9652 into Logic Pro 7.  Done this many times.
Got everything setup, track names, record file path,
started the input and the meters are moving in the channels.
All looks good.  Record enable all tracks, hit Record,
all looks good - except no wave info is showing up, ie - no
recording is happening.  I also noticed that the Bar Ruler
turns red when recording - I do not remember seeing
this - but this may be normal.

NEW Info:

	When I say "No Recording" - usually, as the SPL moves
across the screen, the recorded audio tracks show up
behind it.  Well - in this case - the SPL moves across the
screen, and nothing appears behind it.

	This song is set up as a "project" and all of the folders
that are normally created for a project have indeed been created
by Logic.  We are sure that this is cockpit error on our part,
we just have never had this problem ?!?!?!?

Any ideas??

Sometimes it moves, but the drawing is delayed. if you hit stop you see it.
Also this occurs if you record on a midi channel but don't do anything.
if this is happening on an audio track then something is not set up because
it will record silence if there is no input.

are the meters moving?

Before hitting record, try putting into record/pause mode, with the track muted, and play something into it to see if the meters move.

there are a number of things that can happen. I have had the spidif cable come ajar from the a/d and hang things p. it seemed that after I did a OS update, some strange behaviour in logic occurred which required going to the audio/midi control panel to change things back to the way they were.

Drawing is not delayed - when stopped - nothing appears.

No Midi or Instrument channels - all Audio Channels.

All meters on all tracks are moving in correspondence with the
input signal.

We do this all of the time - never had a problem.

Very strange.

1st define what an arpeggio means to you.
Imo, a succession of events

Well seeing as how hes talking about the Arpeggiator in the Environment 
I think its pretty obvious he wants it to play an arpeggiated chord from 
one of his synths.

And actually heres the definition of an arpeggio:
    1.  The sounding of the tones of a chord in rapid succession rather 
than simultaneously.
    2. A chord played or sung in this manner.


Sorry cant actually tell you how to use the Arp though, I just use the 
ones on my hardware synths, never actually done it with a softsynth in 
Logic before..

We are not talking GarageBand here, are we?

Don't you waste time by not reading manuals...

If you occurr problems like core audio, midi, whatever irrelevant software notices, freeze the track,
save the file and proceed

Yes, a succession is what it is, note after note.

We are not in a hurry by the way, a la turca

Hey all,

We found our problem today. Somehow (someone) had set the
channels to "Input #s" instead of "Track #s" Strange that all looks perfect
except no audio files are created during Record. Anyhow - our pilot
screw up has been rectified - and all is good again!

You may resist to the law forever, but a succession is simply a row, 
1 2 3, or any combination of them, 
as it has been stated in Joseph M. Schillinger's "The Mathematical Basis Of The Arts".
Don't u dare...

Re: [Logic_Cafe] Re: Arpeggio

Like many things in music, math and life... things start out a certain way then take a life of their own. If you look at the Arturia Moog synth there is a really crude sequencer which shows the way it was done with hardware 30+ years ago. After that sequencers would have various patterns (up, down, up and down, random, chord)... now on the Virus TI (like softsynths like Albino) you can edit the sequence's pitch, duration, and volumne.

Hey group,
in Germany this one is called "Der Unsinnige Donnerstag", Fasching, 
an dem die Frauen den MŠnnern die Krawatten abschneiden, Šhem...

And not a single thing from any of these replies has actually helped the 
original poster use the Arpeggiator in Logic..

Was there a point to your responses whatsoever cause this makes 
absolutely no sense at all?

Oh yes, I see, this is a Maurit's echo, I like him too,
anyway,
there is, imo, no need for an automated arpeggiator once you understood the principles,
use them anyway

You are right, in Germany we call it Fasching, I humbly apologise, spring's near,
back to the theme, what is this, obscure little thing called arpeggiator all about?
We have a folder in this group, where you may want to post iso's to reflect for all and this is,
imo, an art form in itself.
I found something on the web, it is still in the LUG folder, no reply, anyone is still arguing I hope.
I forgot to deal with it for a while, unfortunately, it is Crystal, although some features have already been, before or after, implemented into software instruments like ES2 and obviously Sculpture.
You want to beat someone? Yess, this works in Ultrabeat too!
There are so many things to discover in Logic, thanks to Gerhard who started this one, you really brighten my day, everyday
What is your goal, do you want to control permutations by pressing a key,
or do you want Logic to give you a choice over these permutations (for our new fellows, Busoni, Schönberg, Schillinger, Hindemith, Honegger, Coltrane et al), I can't, but create an enviroment, it is possible.
I do prefer a simple solution, I write a variation in score and adapt that one to the uprising situation.
Best

Arpeggio - one more time (different question though!!)

2006-03-09 by S P

Hi
First of all, I want to thank all those who helped me with my previous question about the arp..
I just learnt about the Chord Memorizer (right after learning Arpeggiator). You probably are guessing my question already :)
Here's what I tried to do and did not work! :( I wanted to trigger the arpeggio with the Chord Memorizer. In the environment, I came up with the following setup:
(Chord Memorizer) ------------> (Arpeggiartor) -----------> (Audio Object)
I then assigned a shortcut key for a chord in the Memorizer. With Logic in Play mode, I triggered the shortcut key for the chord - it played the chord but did not arpeggiate. I thought that the signal is not passed from the Memorizer to the Arpeggiator - so I put a Monitor object between those two - and found that the Chord Memorizer was not passing the MIDI signal to the Arpeggiator.
Am I missing something?? Better documentation would really have helped here.
Thanks in advance.
-Sam-
