Eriksimon Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Try starting Logic from a different (newly created) User account first. And no, you will not loose VST's, since you've got none. And no, reinstalling an app NEVER deletes documents made with that app. That would be silly. Reinstalling may not help though. Try the user account thing first.

Eriksimon Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 OK, jayjaychil - chill. Nobody can help you if you provide so little info. For starters, add your Logic version and system info to your signature: Forum Rules - please READ THIS before posting (#5) After that, explain in more detail what is happening. Does this timeout happens during startup? Does it crash Logic? Does it happen no matter what project you open? Does it also happen if you create a new user account and start Logic from there?

Jordi Torres Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 sorry but i was getting no help with the one! When that happens, all you need to do is bump your thread (by posting a reply yourself). some help rather than a telling off would be useful........ Sorry jayjay, but you got to play by the rules of the house. As far as helping you out, based on the info you've provided so far all I can tell is that it sounds like you're dealing with pirated software: im thinking of reinstalling but dont know if i will still have all my vst's.................massive, sylenth, panman etc etc. If your software is legit, you don't need to worry about losing anything.

jayjaychil Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 no pirate here. all my stuff is brought and paid for. my concern is that is i reinstall il lose all my work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordi Torres Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 no pirate here. all my stuff is brought and paid for. my concern is that is i reinstall il lose all my work. You shouldn't loose anything if you reinstall the exact same versions of the plug-ins you use (sometimes that's not even the case, but better safe than sorry). Based on the info you've given so far, I don't think you should be reinstalling Logic. Have you tied trashing the Audio Units cache and restarting Logic after that? J.

rikki rivett Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 EDIT-ok, found the solution here : https://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=72736&p=479358&hilit=+midi+timeout+#p449311 Glad to hear the problem is now solved. J. I'm sorry, but where is the solution please? It's not in this thread AFAI can see. I'm having the same problem (MIDI Timeout error message) . Logic follows it with another error message "Deep Architecture! Unpack some Folders." But I hardly have any folders in the song at all. The song is however a work template I use every week, so maybe it has some bug in it somewhere. I don't know why, but I only ever have seem to these issues on days when there's a heavy deadline coming up!!! Thx for any help RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx for any help RR Sounds like your project is either corrupted and/or it begins prior to bar 1 (i.e in the negative bars). At least that was the problem for this user who was getting both MIDI Timeout and Deep Architecture errors (this thread is mostly in spanish though!): http://www.logicprohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=362102 Never move the project start marker to the negative area...it only brings...negativity!

rikki rivett Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Hi Jordito, thank you, kind of you to reply! My song does (did) indeed have a start point of minus 8 bars. I chopped out everything before 1 1 1 1 and the problem has disappeared. I will change my template too, to fix that. I'm REALLY glad to have found this solution. Last time I had this problem I was on a really stressy day and had to move all the audio into another song , on another computer actually, to keep on working. So your advice, and David's, is really valuable. many thanks again RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
