  1. Logic 9.1.8 -> Mountain Lion. Nearly four years and three OS's. Surprised it works at all.
  2. Just in case I wasn't clear. Autopunch will solve this. However it won't solve recording pickups. I don't know how easy it is but I'd be inclined to try phoning Apple and ask if the changed behaviour is a bug or by design and not going to change.
  3. Well yr probably going to be disappointed because my workaround will stop notes accidentally played too early, but it's not going to help with recording a pickup (which I don't do). Placing the Auotpunch locators where you want the pickup to be (e.g. last beat of the preceding bar) will still result in the recorded region getting rounded to the start of that bar. BTW I agree. The way it does this is definitely poor design or a bug. It has no advantage I can see. To record a pickup the fastest workaround I can think of is: 1. Set your Cycle on the bar you want to replace 2. Right Click to Snip (I have my right click assigned to scissors) the original region where you want the pickup to start 3. Press Delete 4. Create new track with same instrument (Alt Cmnd Rtn) 5. Record 6. Drag select and then Merge the regions (Ctrl =) 7. Delete the extra track
  4. When the original region gets cut by your Autopunch locators when you record, any notes in that region that overlap into the Autopunch area will still play for their entire length.
  5. Set Overlapping Recordings > Cycle to Replace Use Autopunch. There are a few key commands that may help i.e. set by cycle locators Do not press the Replace (X) button Ensure clip length for the existing region is unticked I know setting the AP locators is an extra step but at least it's quick and the above should get you where you need to go. In experimenting with this issue I've seen all the bugs you describe in your OP, inconsistencies with Undo and differences in the Replace behaviour between new projects and ones created in previous versions. I feel your pain. The dev's are hard at work bloating LPX. Too many changes too quickly. I feel like a beta tester for LP11. When I open up LP9 I'm blown away by how responsive it is. /rant
  6. Damn. Thanks guys. I'll speculate it's a consequence of this "fix": General • All menus now open reliably on computers running OS X 10.9.5. Nope, they don't. I wasn't aware of menu problems (except when using third party software like Logitech & Moom). Now I'm definitely aware! Hope they'll fix it. Don't know if Apple have any qualms about dropping OS support halfway through a product. I've seen other dev's do it. All plugins and peripherals functioning nicely under Mavericks. Really don't want any OS upgrade surprises.
  7. Seeing as you felt the need to be a smart *ss I'll reply once but I don't have the time and aren't going to bother again. Stating the obvious. I do it. I'll be less inclined to do it if I know people are shopping for answers. As will others. You've missed the point. I'm one of those people who help, on several forums, not just audio related. My comment is an example of a person who does mind (not a big deal but still worth mentioning I thought). Understand now? I don't buy it. Questions almost never go unanswered here, and eventually do get answered if the OP bumps the thread. Seems more like it's about getting an answer NOW. I'm not telling you what to do. Just suggesting you give it some thought.
  8. Please take this as a bit of friendly advice, not a criticism: I saw you posted the same question on Gearslutz and someone answered you there too. Perhaps consider respecting people's time who volunteer their help for nothing. You're using up resources because you can't wait a few hours for an answer? And it's basic stuff found in the manual. I highly recommend reading it every day/night till you know it back to front. I've seen a few people on LPH do this lately since Gearslutz started a Logic sub forum. Your question just happens to be the first I've commented on.
  9. Anyone care to confirm this is not just restricted to OS 10.9.5 or a gremlin in my computer?
  10. No, because Autopunch is on which prevents recording notes outside of the Autopunch locators. Are you seeing something different? I just tested with Autopunch off and intentionally recorded two passes before the cycle area. I'm not seeing it in this case either. I'm using a one bar count in. Screenshots: 1. First pass recorded as a new region. Pressed stop. 2. Pressed record. New notes are recorded and merged with the first region 3. Press Undo (Command Z). Notes in the second pass are deleted. The original region and notes are intact Have you tried deleting prefs or logging in as a new user yet? I have no idea if pref corruption could cause it but wouldn't be surprised. Have seen so many glitches in LPX and I no longer trust it. Sidenote: When Autopunch is off I do see this behaviour. Logic is rounding the recording to the nearest measure. BUT Undo restores the original region. Thankfully Autopunch works as expected so not an issue.
  11. Most of the time my Recording settings are set to Merge for both No Cycle and Cycle. I always use Autopunch. If I want to replace instead of merge I use a keyboard shortcut for Replace (same as clicking the button in the Control Bar); I don't change the Recording settings to Replace. Only time I do change them (which is rare) is to create Take Folders. I don't experience this (if I understand you correctly). With Autopunch locators set and Replace turned on, when I press Record any region inside the Autopunch area is automatically snipped; notes that start in the previous region are kept (i.e. not split). Any notes I press when the Playhead is outside of the Autopunch are not recorded and don't interfere with the previous or subsequent region. Currently using 10.2.0. Hope that's clear.
  12. Awesome (sarcasm). Another show stopper. 1. Insert Scripter. 2. Load a script containing a drop-down menu. 3. Load a different script e.g. the default. Result: graphical glitches start appearing, Scripter and Inspector windows don't update, playhead only moves in spurts each time the mixer window is opened and closed, no more sound, i.e. all sorts of weird stuff. Quitting is required to solve it. 10.2.0 does not suffer the problem. I don't know if it occurred in 10.2.1. I didn't use it for long enough to find out because the delay opening the plugin menu drove me nuts.
  13. The two workarounds are hit and miss and unfortunately are unfeasible for gaining control of Smart Controls already in a Track Stack. The devs really, REALLY need to sort this one.
  14. Shouldn't be the case. Dragging a (green) software instrument AL onto a blank instrument track or an empty part of the arrange should recreate the channel strip setting including all plugins.
