  1. Thanks for the offer. Unfortunately I deleted it in the app, which told me the action cannot be undone… which is ridiculous because all the developers had to do was yeet the file into the Trash, but instead they delete it.
  2. I realized why I missed that config file: I didn't check the Audio folder. I went straight to the Preferences folder. And wow: I opened Default.mcfg in TextEdit and there's NO WAY I am going to try to parse all of that. It's a very long file. I scrolled through and it didn't turn into chunks of random binary, so whatever corruption there is, it's not screamingly obvious. I'm just going to have to create a new setup manually. I grew up loving computers, but now I hate them. I wish I'd developed into an instrumentalist but my neurology had other plans (such as hands and brain making it hard to progress at learning to play anything and impossible to read notation). I love electronic music but I now hate all software. 48 years on this planet and the tech has gotten more capable but also considerably less predictable and reliable. Even the OS that I moved to in order to escape the nightmare that is Windows.
  3. I did look there but I was tired and annoyed, so I must’ve missed it somehow. Will look again when I’m able to get back to my computer. Thanks 😊
  4. Thanks for this info. I looked in that folder and didn’t see the file. I’ll look again. I’m curious to see if I can recognize any corruption in the file. I’m not happy to repeat my effort, but creating a new blank setup is so far looking like the solution because behavior is normal on a new config. I started it, and once done, I’ll try to remember to come back here and mark this as the solution. Thanks for everyone’s advice. 👍🏽
  5. Removing the com.apple.audio.AudioMIDISetup.plist file just caused the MIDI Studio window to reset its state of being opened (to closed) and window dimensions. It didn't affect the actual configuration. Where is this stuff stored??? I see no other relevant preference files!
  6. I am currently looking for the preferences files to try that. They don't seem to live in the root library, so I've been looking through my user library preferences. I'm not looking forward to creating the whole config again from scratch... In the mean time, I got sidetracked by finding lots of stuff in the Preferences folder that is outdated and removing those too. Sigh...
  7. Oh cool! I was wondering if there was something like that for modern Mac OS. Thanks for the link! I just downloaded it.
  8. I didn't. I shall do so next time I notice this happening. I will have to update this thread with my findings later. Right now I am trying to deal with a much worse issue (my thread about Audio MIDI Setup MIDI Studio being entirely corrupted).
  9. Per my original post: "[it records] blank regions (if I don't start playing), and this overwrites the existing region." I see no MIDI data in the blank regions.
  10. Since around the same time as I allowed Mac OS Ventura to update to 13.6.5, my MIDI studio in Audio MIDI Setup has become totally corrupted and non-functional. The items are not arranged as I left them, all the cables/wires are gone (though the connections claim to be present when rolled over, and I cannot create new connections since they're apparently there), the objects display with black/grey boxes instead of their icons (see attached screenshots), and I cannot remove any of the objects (most of them have the minus button enabled, but it does nothing; one device that I no longer have connected wont even let me click the minus button; the menu choice for "Remove Device" does nothing, and the delete key does nothing). While trying to troubleshoot it, I created a duplicate configuration, which fails to actually load unless I quit and restart it, and then it has the same dysfunction. Trying to change back to the Default setup has the same problem of not loading ("Loading" appears on a blank background and never changes). Whenever I change the view mode from icon to list and back to icon, the arrangement of objects goes back mostly to what I had... until Logic starts or I reopen Audio MIDI Setup. And just a short while ago, it either changed some of my devices into generic "New External Device", or added new ones. I'm really not sure which actually happened. The list view is also corrupt as there are no devices listed and trying to add connections in that mode doesn't work at all. The OS update is the only meaningful change done to the machine between when everything was normal and when everything went to hell. Anyone experiencing this? Any known solutions?
  11. Logic is recording during Count-In. As of 10.8 (yes, I have 10.8.1 now), I have JUST had this start happening to me and it never used to. I like the count-in feature, and relied on it for timing, but now it overwrites existing MIDI regions with new notes (if I start playing too early) or blank regions (if I don't start playing), and this overwrites the existing region. This never happened before, seems like illogical behavior, and I want it to stop. Help?

This never happened before, seems like illogical behavior, and I want it to stop. I do NOT have the other issue the original poster indicated of the rest of the recording not working. I definitely get MIDI recording after the spot where I pressed Record. It's what happens BEFORE that position that has my ire.
  13. I bought WoodTroller for iPad, since it has MIDI 2.0, and activated MIDI 2.0 in Logic... and I can't seem to get any of the MIDI 2.0 behaviors from Logic synths. (This was an act of spite against GeoShred Control's horrific UI) Happily I get the MPE mode to work with this combo, so I'm still better off than with horrific GeoShred Control.
