Logic Pro 10.7 Released

Just got an audio overload error listening to the Spacial Audio Demo project loops grid. Not sure if my 2014 Macbook Pro just can't handle it, or if it's my audio interface. My headphones should be capable. I'll test with another audio interface to see if I get the error again. Maybe turn on and watch Activity Monitor too.

 

Anybody else have this issue?

I have been doing tests/work with atmos and derivatives. For post-production, with a proper 7.1.4 setup, it is great for sfx, atmos etc.

 

But my tests with binaural on headphones are much less convincing. All the elaborate panning sounds like LR shifts. I have no sense of up/down, and front/back is also vague. This is not a Logic problem, binaural in general does not work very well for me.

 

Is there anyone who has experience with a properly implemented head/ear transfer function? That should make it much more real.

 

I don't see mainstream acceptance of this format, unless binaural is spectacular(maybe with Apple earbuds?), which it isn't. Also, I have a hard time seeing any advantages for pop music. Or most classical or jazz, for that matter.

 

Podcasts, audiobooks, videos, art installations can benefit from immersive audio, but music... I don't know.

Hi all, new forum member here and new user to Logic Pro. I just downloaded Logic Pro a few days ago, which I understand just received an upgrade, for the first time and I saw David has an Apple Training series book on Amazon for Logic Pro X 10.5. Would that edition still be okay to go through for a first-time user (with little DAW experience to begin with) or should I wait for a newer edition? Thanks for your help and my apologies if I'm asking this question in the wrong place on the forum.

The material covered in David latest book (v.10.5) is still relevant although it doesn't cover features that had been implemented since. David would normally be the best to give you an answer about its next edition...

Sounds good. Thanks!

Hi!

Found this about Stream Deck. Hope this helps!

https://freepctech.com/gaming/how-to-stop-steam-from-opening-on-startup/

 

Oh sorry, it’s for Steam Deck rather than Stream Deck . I’ll let you know if I find something for Stream Deck.

 

Update: Ok, for something called Stream Deck, it should be the same method.

So you can delete "com.elgato.StreamDeck.plist" from: /Library/LaunchAgents

 

or try this in the terminal: sudo defaults write Library/LaunchAgents/com.elgato.StreamDeck.plist RunAtLoad -boolean false

 

Thanks! I'll have to give that a shot.

Update in the App Store!

"Copying a Marquee selection to the Clipboard no longer leaves the original selection divided at the Marquee borders." Woohoo!!

Some good fixes in there, lots of things I've seen reported here in regards to crashes and other weird behaviours recently. Good stuff!

Yes, definitely.

 

I'm happy to bring back up some of the 10.7.0 bug report threads with a "FIXED in 10.7.1" update.

that marquee fix... nice! looking forward to seeing what else is better, too.

is there a link to what's fixed etc?

Yes, the Release Notes link in my original post. OK I'll report all the fixes in the original post for convenience.

sorry, realized right after i posted, and fixed my post... then saw this. oops!

 

No worries. Whatever makes it more convenient to my dear Logic Pro Help readers.

i blame you; you're too on top of these things... (& thanks, really)...

Lots of improvements but Quick Sampler still playing up with the modulation rings. Here’s hoping for a fix in 10.7.2.

 

Cheers for the breakdown, Dave.

You're welcome Neil. I know Apple is aware of it but I took this opportunity to bring it forward once more. Thanks for the reminder.

After updating I notice that Option dragging a region or selection isn't working for me. Anyone else seeing this?

Actually just dragging a region isn't working - it won't move to the new location

Not noticing that here, no, everything works as expected. Have you tried restarting your Mac?

I've tried restarting, but not able to move or copy a region by dragging

What input device are you using? Mouse? Trackpad? 3rd party or Apple branded? Any issues outside of Logic?

 

Another test which is really much faster to try than it sounds: in your system preferences, create a new user account, and try again there to see if it works as expected there?

OK so I just tried it again and it's working - no idea what that was about. All I did was turn Snap off and on and everything works as it should. Go figure

And thank you very much for being so incredibly quick to help out. You're the best moderator on any forum!

Haha thanks I appreciate it.

 

Well perhaps it was your Snap setting preventing you from making the movement you were trying to make? Like for example if you're trying to snap to the Bar but moving by only one or two beats.. that has happened to me before.

 

But any case good to hear you're sorted now.

logic will not remember the quantize setting in the pianorol window.

ok thank you

The release notes posted won’t show a Remix FX related thing I had in more than one project: for eg. the filter+reso x/y pad works, draws automation (in touch mode) plays it back correct until at some point it doesn’t: Logic fails to follow the automation, no change in the sound, like it was just dry. If you duplicate the track, drag the audio + automation on the new track, it works again, until it doesn’t again. Sometimes saving and reopening the project works, often not. It also won’t bounce it correct when it stops working.
