This is the most bizzarre logic/mac problem ever, i've got a new mac G4 800 with 1.5Gig Ram, mac os9.2, delta-66 card/omni I/O, a midisprot 4x4 and AMT8. Everything was working perfectly for about 3 weeks, then i updated the drivers for the delta card to try and stop the errors i got upon booting logic, since then in logic platinum, if i start the program,(even without any preferences/autoload) and i import an audio file (any type) then drag and drop it onto the arrange, and start the sequencer, the audio files don't play at all, i don't even get a flicker on the level meter, it's like they're not even there! BUT if i double click on the audio file in the arrange window to see the waveform, and use the speaker button, it plays no problem, and i get a level reading on the mixer page/boarder of the arrange window. This problem is the same with Mac AV and the delta Asio.
I can record audio perfectly. (And the audio instruments, eg, EXS work fine. If i start uplogic and record audio, then it plays back fine, but as soon as i import an audio file or bounce etc, the audio in the sequence will no longer play. HOWEVER.... I've tryed a friends Logic Gold on my system, and everything works perfectly, it now seems to be just logic platinum, but remember, everything was working fine when i first got the system, Please can somebody help me, thanks. |

i've been using logic for years and it's a class act.
you don't mention which version of logic you're using. you don't mention which os version you're using. how come you're using an amt8 and a midisport? surely the amt8 is fine on its own. it seems to me that you have a conflict between the new driver and the version of logic you're using. either updat logic or re-install the old drivr that worked. otherwise, post me some more info... -------------------- one for all and all for one...

Logic has/had an issue with more than 1 gig RAM installed (this may be fixed in latest versions).
Try allocating more Ram to Logic (400-500MB or more). This will fix your problem. |

I know I am using a different system to you with Logic but I have had a similar problem. After talking to Logic they suggested that I create a track that uses the Macs Audio system and try that out for previewing and Lo and Behold it worked. After that I was able to drag the audio to any track I wanted and it worked fine.
There is no doubt that Logic is not the easiest App I have ever used but it definitely the most powerful overall. It seemed to take me weeks to get anything out of it at all in the beginning but there are tones of tricks in Logic that are well worth learning. In fact it is one of the few Apps tht I actually had to read the Manual to get started with and that is rare. |
