  1. Hi David. I am back with another question on this. I have managed to create the copy of the Logic application as you described. However, what I am trying to do is install 10.4.4 on a new system. I have an external SSD with Monterey installed on it that I can boot from. That is where I want to install Logic 10.4. That system is completely fresh - it doesn't already have Logic installed on it. When applications like Logic are installed, they store bits of data and files all over the drive so I can't simply just drag the copy of 10.4.4 over to the SSD. I assume that in order for Logic to run properly on a new system, you would have to get Logic from the app store and install it so that all the components of the application are installed and allow it to run properly. However, if I do that, the app store will give me the latest version fo Logic (or at least, the most recent version that can run on Monterey). So, in this scenario, how can I properly install Logic 10.4 on my SSD? Is there no way to do it? Thanks
  2. Oh yes. Thanks. I had found that already but didn't think that was the solution because the min and max sliders are for where the sample should start based only on a certain velocity so I ignored it. Of course, I should have realise that you could just drag BOTH the mix and max sliders to the desired starting point and that would provide a workaround. Still though, there should be a more straightforward one-slider way of doing this ideally.
  3. That works. Thanks David. By the way, when I click on this thread, I am shown the page as if I'm not logged in. At the moment, this only happens on this particular page. If it's not too messy to ask another Ultrabeat question in this thread, I'd love to know the following: How can you trim a sample's length within Ultrabeat? For example, if there's silence at the start of the sample, can you trim that? I'm sure it must be quite obvious to find by I can't seem to find it. Thanks
  4. Is there a shortcut for this? I select one track in the arrange window (or in the mix window, for that matter) I then go to a different track that is quite far away from the previous track I had selected. (Let's say, I selected the 1st track at the top of the arrange window and then went all the way down to the stereo out) I now want to return to the previous track with just one key command and not have to scroll or re-size tracks. Is there a way to do this? Thanks
  5. When I load my own samples into Ultrabeat, the length of the midi note determines the length of the sample. If I hold a key down, I get the full sample but if I play a shorter note, I get a shorter version of the sample. However, there are some stock Ultrabeat kits (like Boutique 909 for example) where the sample does not react to the midi in this way. No matter how short the midi note is, Ultrabeat will play the entire sample. How can I change this? Thanks
  6. Thanks. Yes, that is something I'm trying to do. I have a CCC backup that is supposed to be bootable but I've recently discovered that when I select it as the startup disk and boot, the machine boots from the internal drive. Someone at CCC told me that installing a new copy of MacOS might somehow cause the backup to become bootable because there might be some logistical problem with startup that the installer might fix (e.g. reinstalling the APFS drivers into an APFS destination volume). I need to use the backup drive to test Catalina (or a newer OS) anyway so I'm going to install a newer OS on the backup drive and hopefully that a) makes it bootable and b) allows me to test the new OS. But if that doesn't work, I'll have to get a fresh SSD and try to boot from that to test the new OS. In that case, what exactly do I need in order to successfully boot from an external SSD? Are there particular kinds of drives that do/don't work for this purpose? Any guidelines I need to follow? Or is it as simple as buying any SSD that is large enough, plugging in the SSD, starting up while holding the option key and then selecting the SSD as the drive to boot from? Or do I need to format it in a particular way first? Thanks
  7. Thanks. Perhaps I'm being too pedantic but I just have some projects currently that I can't really afford to have affected by update issues. I'd hate to open them in a new version of Logic and discover that my automation is messed up or that my saved channel strip settings or track stacks no longer load properly.
  8. Thanks all. I would like to update this question as I realised that Apple no longer provides security updates for Catalina and the most recent OS that it provides security updates for is Monterey. Are there any known issues with going from Mojave to Monterey (aside from the move form 32 bit to 64 bit)? Also, is 10.4.4 known to work with Monterey? Thanks
  9. Thank you. As I went to hit "duplicate", I accidentally hit "compress" but I cancelled the process less than 1 second after it started compressing. Am I likely to have done any damage?!
  10. Thanks. What would qualify as a satisfactory "backup" of Logic 10.4.4? I do Carbon Cony Cloner backups and Time Machine backups regularly but I wouldn't know how to go about restoring 10.4.4 from those backups. Logic data/files are scattered all over the Mac HD so I would assume that the only way to recover 10.4.4 from a system backup would be to find every file associated with Logic and restore them all.........or have a 10.4.4 installer. How would it work? Thanks
  11. Ah ok. Thank you. Other than plugin.......resolution (is that the right term?), would there be anything else to consider? And would Logic 10.4.4 work OK on Catalina?
  12. I'm not sure as I haven't checked. What point are you getting at?
