Tried a new account and Logic still didn't work correctly which is a warning sign to me. I changed speakers in case it was the sensitivity setting on my Focals. Still the same problem. I think I've tracked it down to my Audient EVO16. For some reason it ignores small transients under a certain volume level. It's not done this before a few weeks before. It may be importing a new session was merely a coincidence with the interface malfunctioning. I've removed the interface and put back my travelling SSL 2+ Everything works as it should. Thanks for your help as ever David.

I can't recall but I doubt it, it was a heavy orchestral score to picture. I'll try a new user account.

I think I'm going to reinstall the Audient Interface software before I touch Logic. Since the headphone output works, that suggests to me that the problem is further up the chain than Logic's output.

No we don't work remotely, it's more of a back and forth thing. Yes I have restarted the mac, it's been a while now. If I have to get rid of the preferences, do I also need to back up my keyboard shortcuts separately ?

Yes it is. I don't know if it's important but my collaborator sent me a session which was setup as Dolby Atmos at his place, whereas I only work in stereo. It was after opening his session that things went strange

Tried this already, to no avail. Even stranger the metronome sounds correctly when I play notes on an instrument. As soon as the instrument stops, the metronome stops... Screen Recording 2024-04-17 at 11.41.46.mp4

Thanks for the reply David - yes I can hear the metronome normally when I use the Headphone Output of the Mac. Also here is the ALL mixer view

I recently opened a session from a collaborator and my metronome (klopfgeist) stopped working. That's to say it works but I can't hear it - unless I tick the divisions box. It's so strange and driving me nuts. My current workaround is ticking the divisions but lowering them down to barely audible level. Not ideal. If anyone has any ideas ? trashing preferences maybe ?

As promised, here is the solution for any EVO 16 users, (applies possibly to other software mixers): The trick is not to have the send / output channel assigned to the normal audio routing. On the EVO mixer there's a function called DAW THRU. When the send / output is set to DAW THRU, the whole system works as intended. This won't mean much to anyone who doesn't use this particular piece of software, but I've put up a screenshot of the required routing. N

I've followed everything that's stated on Apple's website, and I've referred to the LPX manual. I'm trying to send out of output 5 and the signal returns on input 8. I've tried different ins/outs, with the same resulting feedback. I've tried changing the mix settings within the Eventide H9 itself, but it doesn't do much other than mix control, sync settings and so on. Within Logic I've tried the i/o plugin, either on the channel itself or on a aux bus. I've also tried setting the output of the channel to output 5 and creating an audio track with input 8. Same result. I'm beginning to suspect that the solution's in the Audient Mixer app. It has a cue mix system for headphone mixes, alternative mixes etc. If I find a solution, naturally I'll post it here for future reference. Thx for your replies. N

I've seen this problem on the forums before, and on the net in general, but it was never completely addressed here and I can't find a satisfactory reply elsewhere, so apologies for the repeated topic. When using the i/o plugin to inject an external effect processor into Logic, I get terrible feedback. My audio interface is an EVO 16 from Audient, and the effect is an Eventide H9. I've tried everything I can possibly think of: software monitoring on/off, changing inputs and outputs, mix settings in the effects processor, digital clock settings, rebooting the mac, having a coffee, meditating, but nothing works. It should. I know I've used this function before, but not since 10.5 (I think !). All I can get is extremely loud feedback. The Eventide on its own works fine. Any thoughts ? Many thanks. N

Thanks so much for replying ! Turns out it was in Application Support/Zenology and not Application Support/Roland. Don't know why I didn't see it earlier. It's always the way. As soon as I ask for help, a solution pops up.🙂

Disclaimer, forgive me, not strictly a Logic Pro question. I installed the Roland Zenology Free plugin a while ago to try it out when I bought a Roland TR-8S drum machine. All went well while using it, but now I want to uninstall it. And in spite of all my best efforts (erasing components, erasing preferences , searching and erasing application support files, etc, etc, etc) I cannot get rid of it in the list of Audio Units. I can't even "remove" it in the plug-in manager. Roland has been rather unhelpful. If anyone out there has an idea and can help, I would really appreciate it. Driving me nuts. Thx N.

Is there any way to see how much memory LP's sampler is using ? It's for comparison purposes (e.g. a factory Marimba in LP Sampler compared to a Kontakt stock marimba) Thx N

I actually went back to a screen shot I had taken when I set up the Arturia a couple of years ago - something I would recommend to all - and simply typed in the values shown in the photo. This setup the physical faders on the keyboard to control the channel faders in LP. Curiously, and don't ask me how, this also got rid of the gremlin in the mod wheel. It now sends CC#1 as it should. Could it have been some sort of corrupted cache file ? The pitch bend wheel worked perfectly, but I don't use it that often. The mod wheel controls expression and instrument volume so it gets much more attention…
