Re: OT: more Logic hell... this time .. control assignments!

[mark francombe <mark@markfrancombe.com>]

Hey charles... I am RTFM.. following them like the bible... bit unclear frankely hence me using a better online tut......but as I said, its NOT working correctly... I might give your "reset all controller assignments suggestion" a go... but if its anything lke any other program Ive used, to reset the assignment I working on (deleting as Logic calls it) should be enough...

I might be on to something else, it seems to be a issue with the Axiom keyboards... there seems to be some difference of opinion on the work around... trying all approaches as we speak.. but again a whole day wasted, reading fucking manuals than music making..!

God!!!  This program, and what Apple have done with Final Cut ProX, and I might be heading back to PC, or to Adobe at least...

God help us all!

Mark,

 Try the "controller assignments" window (Logic->Preferences->Control Surfaces,  be sure to  "reset all controller assignments"..

It's not difficult, and as always be sure to RTFM...

Anyone know why I cant get my controll assignments for the transport buttons to work. Im using a 61 key Axiom keyboard. and Im positioned far away from my laptop.. so I need those rewind play and record buttons to work... I followed these...

http://audio.tutsplus.com/tutorials/recording/how-to-configure-your-axiom-control-surface-with-logic-pro-9/

...instructions, but they are VERY intermitant, if they work at all.. In fact I see some number on the transport increasing by one as I press the button ive assigned, and occasionaly (different for each button) it WILL fire off the required control and Logic will Play/stop etc...

I have had nothing but trouble form Logic, am really hating it.. I kep plugging away because, a) I paid for it.. and b) its supposed to be good aint it? I just know that when ever I have to use it again, I spend more time configuring and fiddling than playing.. thats not good...

bring back Reason, all is forgiven...

PS: I just got my PPL statement and noticed that Steve Reichs Music for 18 Musicians (Section II) Is the 10th most played classical record of 2010... cool!
