  1. Thank you! I hope this may prove helpful for someone else if they experience the same difficulty I did.
  2. Update: I figured it out! I had to open the instrument screen and click the power button there as opposed to the mini button that appears when I hover my mouse over the input on the mixer. Thanks again everyone!
  3. Actually, I've figured out the buttons will map, just not to turn a particular instrument on or off. So it appears it's the on/off function that is causing the problem and not the buttons themselves. Weird....
  4. Okay, now the buttons will not map at all. The faders and knobs all map perfectly, but not the buttons.
  5. Thank you for your input here. My Mac sees the Nano, and responds when I push the buttons so I don't think there's a MIDI issue between the Nano and the Mac. It's just the virtual nano I built on the MainStage screen won't allow me to map the buttons. I can map all the faders and nobs, just not the buttons. I even put a new button on the screen and tried to map it to see if I could troubleshoot and it just didn't work.
  6. I'm going to give this a try. I want the button to act like a light switch, turning a patch on when I push it, and off if I push it again.
  7. So they're sending an on/off command to a keys patch. I ended up redoing my entire setup, still with the NanoKontrol 2, and now the stupid buttons will not map at all. They show as unmapped/available, and when I go through the mapping process they still show as unmapped. I love technology..............
  8. My nano has some buttons to turn a selected patch on or off. They turn the respective patches on just fine, but when I push the button to turn them off they toggle off and right back on again. In short: the patch effectively won’t turn off. I’ve reset my nano, remapped those buttons, nothing works. Oh, and I’ve used a different keyboard and a friend’s nano and the same thing happens. I’m using a recent MacBook Air and the latest OS. Any help would be AWESOME.
  9. I recorded a chord progression using the "Moonrise Space Walk" pad instrument in C Major. Then I opened a Steinway Grand track and tried to lay down some piano, also in C Major. The pad is out of tune with the piano. Other pad sounds are in perfect tune with the piano, so if I change to a different pad the pitches match perfectly. Problem is, I really like the sound of the Moonrise Space Walk. Can I alter that pad somehow to correct its pitch? Thanks for any help. Drew
  10. And another post......with the cheapo USB-MIDI cable I can get sound from my Quartet/Logic Pro.....but with some SEVERE latency, chords not sounding when I'm playing them, etc. Any reason the Quartet won't power the Roland cable? It actually works so I'd much prefer to use it if possible (and it costs roughly 50 bucks as opposed to the 8 dollars I spent on the cheap one....)
  11. Let's add another wrinkle here......when I plug my Roland USB-MIDI into the Quartet, the cable gets no power. When I plug in my junky seven dollar cable from Amazon.com. that cheapo cable gets power from the Quartet. I am lost......
  12. Okay.....I opened a new project and chose "software instrument" and VOILA! There is a beautiful sound coming into my headphones. Now, the only question remains can I run my synth through the MIDI on my Quartet and still get this same result??? Say yes, pretty pretty please.......
  13. So, bypassing the Quartet puts me back to where Logic Pro is receiving signal from my synth, but no sound is coming into my headphones. However, when I started an "electronic" project instead of an "empty" project I could get drum sounds when I played my keyboard.
  14. I'm going to try and bypass the Quartet, plug the Roland Interface directly into the Laptop and see how that goes. Ideally, I'd like to run everything through the Quartet so I don't have to change a bunch of stuff around on my settings to switch between recording keys and recording vocals.
  15. So when I put the Roland through the audio rather than MIDI, I hear no problem with absolutely no latency. I'm under the impression the Quartet allows for the use of MIDI synths, so I still want to get this thing figured out somehow.
