Logic Pro Help

Something that is pretty freaking sweet is that we can now Shift-click a Send, and Logic will find and highlight the corresponding Aux Channel 3 times!

This is great!!!!!

Updated and all good here. A much more responsive UI and what appears to be a great implementation of ‘disable tracks’.

Killer feature for me is Dynamic Plugin Loading!

Have a session with lots of frozen VI tracks?

It will open MUCH, MUCH, MUCH, MUCH faster!

Fantastic.. thanks Apple!

About dynamic plug-in loading in Logic Pro X
Logic Pro X 10.4.5 only loads the plug-ins and software instruments needed to play the project, which helps projects open faster.

Dynamic plug-in loading helps projects with a lot of plug-ins and software instruments open faster. When you open a project, Logic analyzes the project and makes only the tracks needed for playback active. Here are the types of tracks Logic makes active when you open a project:
Audio tracks that have audio regions (not including frozen tracks)
Software instrument tracks that have MIDI regions (not including frozen tracks)
Tracks with input monitoring turned on
Tracks with plug-ins that generate sound without requiring any input (such as the Test Oscillator)
Tracks with external or ReWire inputs
Tracks with plug-ins and software instruments not needed for playback are inactive and dimmed in the Mixer.
When you select an inactive track, Logic loads the plug-ins on that track. Logic also loads plug-ins on an inactive track when you do things like add a region to the track, unfreeze a frozen track, or add a plug-in to an inactive track.
Manually make tracks inactive and active
You can manually make tracks inactive to save system resources. Press and hold the Option key, then click the On/Off button in the track header in the Main window. If you don't see the On/Off button in the track header, choose Track > Configure Track Header, then select On/Off.
When you make a track with audio regions inactive, you also make turn off the track’s audio regions. If you close then reopen the project, the whole track remains inactive until you manually activate it.
To manually activate a channel, click the track header On/Off button in the Main window. In the Mixer, click an empty Audio Effect slot, then choose Activate Channel.
Turn off dynamic plug-in loading
You can turn this setting off for each project:
Open your project
Choose File > Project Settings > General, then deselect "Only load plug-ins needed for project playback."

Can't seem to get the update prompt in App Store for some reason.

Also, will the update's section about improved multi-core support for up to 56 cores have a good effect on 12-core systems?

Same here...on Mojave and LPX 10.4.4. I've restarted a few times but still waiting.

I know it says its fixed in the release notes, but if they ACTUALLY fixed ARA2 then this will be a great day. (also plugins now unload when you hit the track power button!)

read through the notes and there's a ton of other great updates/fixes, but this is the one I've been waiting for.

+100

That did it....thank you!

Sorry, but I am not impressed. People are super excited about a slight improvement of their projects‘ load times?
The last 1,5 years have been pretty boring as a Logic user.

Oh wow!

THIS. Is the update/fix I've been waiting for literally YEARS for. We finally have a proper enable/disable tracks feature. Like chucknkd said, when Logic Pro X was first released, the on/off button that I had come to rely upon in Logic 9 was basically rendered useless. But now once again you can bip an instrument track, option click on/off button and hide the old track and it won't hog resources on subsequent reloads of the project. Thankyou Apple for giving us back this pro feature.

I'll take boring and reliable. Faster project loading times is a very good thing for some of us, my projects tend to be large and this is especially good for those of us who use Login on stage.

So I downloaded this update, and suddenly my Korg nanoKontrol 2 stopped working. I tried deleting it from the Control Surface setup and then re-adding it, but it won’t add.

I haven’t been using the Korg driver for a while because the nanoKontrol worked fine without it, and it caused stability problems when it was installed. It hasn’t been updated for a few years.

I’d love to hear from anyone with a similar experience or suggestion.

Now if they'd just give us BLACK as a color again. (yes, I know there is a workaround)

The dynamic plug-in loading feature is one of the best improvements ever.Finally I can load my big templates 100 times faster than before.
Closing a big template is also incredible fast now, same with saving a project.
This is really smart and excuses the missing features we asked for:
-Multiple video import
-Multiple midi CC lanes in the piano roll
-Multiple marker tracks.
