Your AU cache is probably corrupt. Delete your AU Cache and Let Logic rescan all AU’s.

I doubt a reinstall is necessary. Try trashing the prefs first. You’ll find them in here:

~/Library/Preferences

(~ = your Home directory)

Like I said already, quick swipe comping is only for audio in Logic. With MIDI, all you can do with a take folder is cut it up and select the MIDI in that cut up piece. Scott’s method is more or less the horizontal version of this using the various tracks.

You can select the Auto-Load button in the Search for Instrument window. Only caveat to remember is that it does what it’s name implies after you close the window. However, you can go through the entire gamut of instruments in short order.

BEST ANSWER

You can use the scissors tool in the timeline section to split your regions.

The GarageBand drum map has some differences than EZD so there will be playback discrepancies. You would be able to play EZD on a Drummer track but you might not hear the results you’d expect. GarageBand doesn’t seem to allow exporting of their drummer regions to MIDI, unlike Logic, and changing drum maps is a feature of Superior Drummer.

Midi take folders in Logic are really nothing more than a glorified representation of a folder of midi tracks. True comping is not available for midi in logic. All you can really do is slice your set of take regions into smaller regions and select the midi within that take. SD3 already has a far better comping ability if you save your various groove regions as user midi, as you can comp a groove, in whole or in part, over another groove.

You don’t have to change any tempo information at all. The tracker can recognize the tempo of the imported loop regardless of what the tempo of the song is. Once you have the bars and beats lined up in the tracker and your kit pieces selected for replacement, export the MIDI to SD3’s timeline, ignoring the tempo. It will then conform to whatever tempo is set in your DAW, assuming that follow host is on.

All you really need to do is solo the kit piece that you want to hear bleed in. For example, if you want to hear the snare bleed through the kick drum, solo the kick and Play the snare. That is really all there is to it.

As Scott stated, you can define both what and how much bleed you want in the channel mixer property box.

The corollary to Brad‘s post is that AU presets are DAW specific. Simply saving your SD3 kit preset or Project as a DAW specific preset has little value. It only becomes useful when you are taking advantage of features within the DAW, such as in the case of logic pro, native or 3rd parry plug-ins on the outputs, or channel routings in the case of patches.

unless you intend to make use of your DAW‘s features with SD3, it is far more advisable to save SD3 presets and projects in its own format. As Brad stated, they are not platforms specific.

In the Midi/eDrums settings, you will find maps for BFD. You can use them to play your grooves from BFD. However, you may have to export them from BFD to individual midi files in order to use them in SD3, as BFD’s grooves are in a proprietary format.

And on top of the greeter you also have Edit Play Styles in which you can move your notes around graphically as well as make various adjustments.

You don’t create independent midi tracks for multiple outputs. In Logic’s mixer, you will see a “+” on the instrument channel strip. Pressing that will create multiple output channels for SD3. In SD3’s mixer, you then route your instruments to those outputs.

however, if you are going to be giving a studio your audio, then it is probably best that you simply bounce your raw kit pieces from SD3.

The Raven is nothing more than a giant touchsceen monitor. It’s not even a tablet. This means that it will cost you a display port in your Mac. If your Mac is using its supported limit, you would have to sacrifice a display for it. You not only require drivers to use it (it’s not simply plug-and-play), but it’s drivers are mainly geared to the DAW so when it’s all said and done and you quit Logic at the end of the day, you have a glorified monitor (or touch graphic tablet if it even does that much on its own) taking up space. But, hey, if that’s your thing, who am I to sway you?

Well, I don’t now much about Splashtop, but what do I get more? In this case I have to control Logic Pro und SD3 within, over my very little screen from my iPad. How could that be better in relationship to a multiplied iPad (9” *3 = 27” this is what you get on surface with a Raven). And I have to by 60 € p. a. for the service.

SplashTop is free for Wi-Fi. I use all the time. Unless you plan to control SD3 from Canada, you don’t need to pay for Internet access to do what you want to do. You can focus your iPad on a single display and use pinch & zoom to zero in on your controls within SD3. I use a 9″ iPad without issue controlling SD3, UAD plug-ins and a lot more.

I do most of this in my recording area with is out of arm’s reach, which is critical for me since I will be making all of these adjustments in front of a microphone and they have to be made while I am in the recording position. SplashTop is perfect for this.

True, Logic Remote doesn’t open plug-ins. It’s still extremely useful, however. I use that on my iPhone more than my iPad and have it set up to quickly add new tracks and set my recording position, as well as start and stop recording from my recording area, without moving. When I have it running on my iPad, I can multi-touch faders and them simultaneously.

In any of this, I have no fat-fingering issues on a tablet.

And, at the end of the end when I turn off Logic, I have a tablet that I can take with me. If I get any new musical ideas, I can do them in GarageBand on the tablet (which I am sure will change once the transition to ARM is complete) and load it into Logic when I am back on the computer. Not to mention that I use my iPad for a lot of other things these days. It has also come to the point where I anything I can do on my iPad, I can do on my iPhone.

Yes, an iPad may be smaller than the Raven, but it is far more useful. Admittedly, I am more old school when it comes to mixing and mixing boards and prefer a physical control surface rather than something out of a Romulan Warbird.
