Thank you @fuzzfilth That solved the question for me. Sorry about the delay in replying.

Hello. I am preparing stems for a mastering engineer. He wants stems of the vocals dry, vocals with effects, and just the vocal effects. I use buses/aux channels for all effects (rev/delay). However, I just can't figure out how to bounce ONLY the effects to a stem file. To create the dry, and effected stems, I just solo the relevant tracks. But when I do this for the effects aux's, I still hear the original vocals. All I want is the fx, not the original feed. I've diligently searched for answers here on the forum and elsewhere...and I'm stuck. Please can you help?

He has agreed to work in 44.1. Thanks again for the advice.

Thank you for your replies. I'll take your advice and ask him to work in 44.1, If there are other reasons I'm not aware of that he can't do this, I'll let you know. Once again, thanks.

Thank you. In all honesty, I can't ask him to change his parameters. He is doing me a favour, not the other way round. Are we talking real damage by up/down sampling?

I have recorded current project basics at 44.1khz, and colleagues have added bass, sax etc at 44.1khz. I've now sent to arranger/producer, who will add numerous overdubs, largely MIDI based. He will then send back to me to mix. He always works at 48khz and has asked if I might upsample everything to 48khz and resend. I presume this is to avoid clocking issues and reduce his workload (he's a great guy, I don't begrudge that!). However, I am wondering if this is the most efficient approach (I'm trying to save us all extra work). I have two questions: 1) Would it be better for him to just import the 44.1 khz files and let Logic do the sample rate conversion? 2) When he sends it all back to me, bounced to WAV (at 48khz) to mix, should it be fine to downsample to 44khz, or should I create entirely new sessions at 48khz? So grateful for any advice. Thank you.

Okay, I found the problem. The track had flex-time on it. I had to uncheck the 'flex' box in the Region Inspector, and then the timing of the track went back to normal.

I'm as sure as I can be that it's from the conversion. There's a possibility that particular audio file got corrupted when I zipped it and sent to the studio where I'm currently mixing it, but I don't have a way of checking the original files at present.

I imported a 44.1 project into 48 and converted all the audio. All is good, apart from one audio region which plays at the correct pitch, but wrong tempo. (Strangely, parts of it are in tempo, and parts not). Have tried reimporting/reconverting. My current plan is to flex-time it and manually adjust all the transients. But any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Sorry to revive this thread. I want to export a mono track to mono, but include volume/pan automation. I've tried this with Bounce in Place, Export Track as Audio File, etc, but unless I deselect "include volume/pan automation" Logic always renders a stereo file from my mono source track. Is there a way to do this? Thanks.

Does anyone have experience with both Audiophile Triumph, and Hofa CD-Burn/DDP? In deciding between the two, I'm attracted by the plug-in version of Hofa (seems more intuitive than Triumph, and means I can remain within Logic for mastering and DDP/CD creation). However, as londonmatt pointed out above, Triumph seems to have more features... Any thoughts either way?

I would like to bump this as I have a similar question. Using Steven Slate Drums and would like to assign drum names to the Piano Roll, and show only labelled notes in collapsed piano roll view. Any ideas?

Thanks, that worked. I didn't know to hold down Option - Shift while dragging.

Thanks Eric; however these suggestions unfortunately don't work when I try them. When I 'select All' and do this, the others don't follow, they stay the same length. When I do this nothing happens

I recorded a choir using ORTF mic set -up, with an additional stereo mic behind those mics. On mixdown, panned the ORTF mics slightly left and right and kept stereo mic centred. Some tuning was off, so used Melodyne to correct. In just a couple of spots where I'd corrected the tuning, on listening to the mix there seems to be some kind of weird shift in the stereo image. Not evident when each track is solo'd - just when all three playing together. I deduced it must be phase problems introduced by the tuning corrections. I tried inverting the phase on those spots; tried time-shifting one of the tracks by a few ticks, but the problem persists. Then I inserted Logic Pitch Shift on one of tracks, and strangely, if I leave the Pitch at 0 (not even 1 cent of adjustment), the problem disappears. However, there is an audible difference in the nature of the sound on that track. Can anyone help me with: 1) What is the Pitch Shift plugin doing to the sound even when not set to alter the pitch at all? Although it fixes the phasey problem, I don't want to use it if it is messing with other aspects of the mix. 2) Any ideas on whether I'm correct about phase being the issue on those retuned spots where the stereo image shifts, and how to fix that?
