Yes, -4.6 to be exact.. this is with the Venom cranked.. Maybe it is just a low output issue.. I would think that this is a serious flaw in the the design of the Venom, or maybe this particular Venom.. was hoping I was missing something here, and not have to amplify the sound destructively If anyone who has a Venom could chime in it would be appreciated greatly.

Hi! I have tried a hell of a lot to fix this without resorting to starting a new thread, but alas, here I am, hoping someone can help. In this setup, the Venom is the interface, I make a midi track and an audio track. I select inputs 1+2 (the only choice as Venom only allows for 2 inputs) In logic, with the volume on the synth cranked, I am getting meter levels of "5" sometimes a little higher, but thats it.. The fader on the Audio track is set to "0" and the midi is at 127. It's almost as if it needs to switched from Consumer to Pro, but I have not found anywhere where this is an option. I suppose the next step would be to not use the Venom as an audio interface and use something entirely different altogether, but the reality is that this should work just fine.. in fact with the volume on the synth cranked like this I should be peeking, not falling short by 2/3 of the meter! Anyone able to help? I googled for some time looking for someone having similar issues.. probably should have came here right from the start. =/

Thanks for responding David. The only thing I see (unhiding all tracks) is the Click track was option clicked on the Solo and had the little red line going through it but it has to be something else because a Maschine track was not solo'd and it always played back when recorded audio wouldn't.. it just appears to be audio recorded on 3/4 & 7/8 (Which I DO have "I" monitored instances throughout the project, but would that cause this? For now, if I am going to trim/fade/move recorded audio I guess I will have to Solo the region till I figure out what I screwed up. Maybe just bounce it all and run to a fresh slate.

Upon EVEN closer inspection.. when I solo the "Audio Region" the waveform plays.. Did I change a setting accidentally? What function would cause recorded audio to behave like this?

Upon closer inspection, this silencing is occurring with other outboard pieces on other inputs as well (once the recorded audio has been edited ie, cut/move region).. is this happening because of a new feature in Logic 9.1.6? I've never had an issue like this prior to the update.

Very Strange.. On Logic 9.1.6 Logic records the audio waveform from the M-Audio Venom into the arrange window of Logic on an Audio track.. playback is fine UNTIL.. the slightest edit of the recorded region causes the track to go silent.. Visually, the audio is right there.. However if you even trim a slight part of the recorded region, on play back the track is audibly silent.. I don't get it. No automation conflicts exist and this seems to be happening on every track I record from the Venom. MBP i5 10.6.8 Interface is the Project Mix i/o 44.1/24bit [/i]

appreciate the input! lots of help!

http://soundcloud.com/hookedonhydro/hurricane-carlo-dangelo I cranked this out in 24 hour of non stop Logicerall fun! I need to make some better synths for the mix, ill be updating it periodically. Criticism is very welcome! =)

I made a Kreayshawn Drum and Bass remix, and I THINK the issue im having is phase cancellation because at the drop, the bass, even though -5db on the meter, still cuts out the highs. I have tried for hours to figure out why. If someone has a free minute, the suspected cancellation occurs at 1:34 to 1:37, you can hear the vocals and the drums drop noticeably. Any advice would be very appreciated!! I panned a lot of instruments to give some separation hoping that would help and I think it did a little, but not enough. =/ http://soundcloud.com/hookedonhydro/kray

Izotope Stutter possibly? Its the only new plug im using.. it's so irritating, but the plugin is too valuable in this project. Thanks David!

Chances are this is something really easy to fix, I probably changed a setting I didn't mean too.. Everytime I hit play, even in cycle, it plays 1/8 bar early from the actual loop. It's quite annoying. Anyone know what I did for this project to act in this manner? A new project opened and everything is back to normal.. weird.

Hoping someone with a sub can tell me how the bass sounds as I am subless and monitoring on pioneer hdj1000's which aren't too accurate on the low end. Any advice would be appreciated, im fairly new to DnB, just started makin it this year. Thanks! http://soundcloud.com/hookedonhydro/kray

have you tried isolanting the channels on the mixer to determine a source? what kind of mixer? amplified? so many possibilities/causes.

thanks! I will edit the OP to reflect just peoples review of the unit, and how they are using it, it seems the thread you linked is part of what I am looking to learn, the troubleshooting aspect of Kaossilator Pro and Logic interaction, Ty Jordito!

im starting to wonder if it is possible to record midi data, as it seems it is CC controller change messages that the Kaossilator Pro emits. kinda like the way the Maschine works in non-midi mode. I have everything ran into my mixer, the DJM 909, which then has a bunch of routing abilities, but with the Kaossilator Pro i assigned the effx sends and returns from my mixer to the ins and out on the K-Pro, This works well, and logic records the audio just fine. I was a little confused as to the function of the USB cable. I do not think this is intended to replace the midi cables. I hooked up a midisport 1x1 to the K-pro and a USB cable (which I believe is designed for data swapping between the hardwares software editor. I could be wrong though, please correct me if so.. In conjunction with Maschine.. you can easily sample your loops made on the K-Pro, as well as save them to the K-Pro with a SD card.. if you can find one that isn't a newer SDXC, or whatever other SD cards are out there.
