i have an issue

after messing with bouncing shit to audio, chopping up, reversing, effecting, reversing, chopping, etc etc... i accidentally deleted a track which was solo'd. now, logic thinks the track is still solo'd, even though it is no longer there and will not play any audio unless i have my master solo'd. any way i can fix this?

To record the sounds you're using from your hardware synthesiser you will need to record through audio I'm afraid, MIDI is only a data-handling language and will only allow you to record in data such as what keys you play etc.

damn is there any other daw where I would be able to record midi notes through what I am playing from my synth but it being my synth? tell me if that made any sense.

No DAW will allow you to do that. This http://virus.info/page/render/lang/en/p ... ug_in.html may be the closest thing to what you're after.

EDIT: actually you can do that in any hardware synth which accepts midi in if you're soundcard has a midi out port.

Why don't you just use midi to record your notes, then send em back to your keyboard with midi out and then record the sound from your synth? That allows you to use quantizing and stuff like that.

Not sure if this has been covered.... but proper routing for time based processors i.e. delays and reverbs.

create aux track, insert your processor of choice however you want it with the mix at 100%

On the tracks you want routed to the aux track, use sends to aux track then adjust the send levels on the individual tracks to achieve the effect you're looking for.

Was bussing the output individually to the aux track...but using sends lets you refine the reverb for each track and doesn't add another fader in your gain structure.


Also, bussing to one instance of a time based processor saves on your cpu.

Not only that, but your track will sound like its in 'one space' and not several random sounding reverb spaces.
:) it helps to make a more coherent sounding song

Well i don't know about that, but it IS the place to be. Went to see Mala two days ago and two girls were licking and fingering each other on the bar. :D Made Mala's set even better. So, yeah. :D

quick question

after watching reso's masterclass (awesome) I noticed on his mixer, channels are grouped together with empty 'spaces' between them. is this done with groups or what?

I'd say so, depending on interface, try stick with fw400 or fw800 although I think usb 2.0 still cuts it for audio.

Works better when the drive spins 7200rpm.

Empty or not shouldn't impact unless it's quite old.

How do you "paint it white"? are you talking about track/channel fader colors?
