I noticed some things with Logic 4.7 and stayed up pretty late until I
figured out what was screwing up my MIDI clock out... Here's some things I
noticed along the way:
Options/settings/midi interface communication: Unified MIDI must be on to
use the VST looping capability. Toggling this on and off did not affect MIDI
latency timing. Best to leave on.
I discovered that setting audio track one to CHA = Input 1 in order to
monitor a mic with effects screwed up my MIDI clock sync to my SuperNova.
This took a long time to figure out, actually. I'm pretty irritated that it
affected MIDI at all. Pretty strange, really. But sure enough, when I
switched it back to a standard audio track setting, everything was back to
normal. I guess its a processor speed thing (I don't have a G4 yet).
IMPORTANT: I thought 4.7 was supposed to allow recording audio input while
monitoring FX (with or without recording the FX). Nothing seems to be
different here. Is there an environment setting I haven't tweaked or is this
still not possible? This as well as looping and hierarchical menus are the
main reasons I was looking forward to 4.7. I suppose 2 out of 3 ain't bad,
but I'd really like to record clean guitar while monitoring distortion and
other FX, badly!!!
Thanks for any help, Jer
