Master Audio MIDI Setup.

[CowboyTakeTwo]

I was directed here after posting my problem: http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?p=377520#377520

Before I attempt to make sense and follow the directions in this post, I gotta ask, will this solve my problem? The problem where Logic Midi Assignments (specifically the "Midi Input" dropdown menu) forgets that all my custom assignments should be "From MaxMSP 1" and not "Any"...

Thanks for any help. If this tip leads to a solution I am sooo happy.

Max's virtual MIDI ports are volatile and don't even turn up in AMS, so it won't work.

Check out this thread from the cycling74 forum started by fader8 to get a better grasp on the port reordering situation:

Did you try Scandor's tip from the original thread?

Haven't tried scandor's thing yet, but I will, assuming it might work. I have no idea what all of it means or does, so I was hoping somebody could confirm that it is in fact a workaround to my problem, before I have to go into the environment and learn new stuff...

[jordito]

Yes it is intended as a workaround for your problem, and I assume if he took the trouble to post all that then it should work. Haven't tried it myself yet. You're going to have to follow his step by step procedure to confirm.

Thank you Eric!

This really works! I've been bugged with these port name issues for many years, submitted several messages to the Apple (Emagic) Dev team to no avail.

One very serious problem solved is the situation with multiple devices getting mixed up from each launch - both external instruments but certainly also control surfaces.
In one setup I use 3 BCF's to form a 24ch faderbank and Logic would usually shuffle the physical order of the machines, i.e. 9-16, 1-8, 17-24..
Imagine how much this troubled me!

You are a star, Eric!

Ciao, Henrik

Nice, but my MIDI Configurations folder is empty!

Are you sure you are looking in the right Library folder?

Mr.Swede - you're right again. Okay, time to *uckup my system..

Hi

I am having a problem with logic remembering my controller assignments.

Well the control assignments are remembered. But they just dont work when i reboot the computer. Im using a Korg Nanokontrol.

I didnt really understand this thread fully. But will this fix that problem? Do i need to reset my audio midi setup so that My NanoKontrol is always in the same place on the usb bus??Sorry, im not fully understanding this thread and how to implement this solution into my workflow.

Cheers

Jack

Hi Jack!

Please add your Logic version and system info to your signature: Forum Rules - please READ THIS before posting (#5)

Did you try to make a new Configuration inside of Audio MIDI Setup?

[aphexbeats]

This was very helpful, thanks! I have an eie pro interface that says that on the audio midi setup, but in logic it just says port no name but it is my interface. Will this fix the no name issue?

[EricBradley]

Will this fix the no name issue?

Yes. It certainly will.

Hi Eric

When I go to Library / Audio / Midi Configurations this folder is empty, yet I have two different setups in my AMS. Any advise!

[David]

When I go to Library / Audio / Midi Configurations this folder is empty

You need to go to ~/Library which is your home folder's library:

1) Go to the Finder.
2) Hold Option as you click the "Go" menu, and choose the Library.
3) Navigate to /Audio/MIDI Configurations/
