smokyfrog Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I was hoping for this too - I have a JV2080 and 8 expansion cards so don't really want to type them all in. I used to be able to select every patch by name in Cubase so foolishly assumed Logic, having been around for ages, would have similar conveniences. Is there any feature in Logic that can suck out the patches/names from your synths to reload them automatically when the song loads again? I realise this feature was dropped from Cubase too in the transformation to Nuendo (sorry, SX) but surely we haven't all moved over to softsynths? For one thing, you can run way less softsynths than hardware ones thanks to those "low memory" warnings... Jeez this stuff makes me feel old!

Matt Mayfield Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Is there any feature in Logic that can suck The MIDI patch name feature, yes. It's a real head-scratcher why Apple's Logic doesn't use Apple's .midnam system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fader8 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I was hoping for this too - I have a JV2080 and 8 expansion cards so don't really want to type them all in. Here's a 2080 environment with all the expansion lists. You need to configure the bank numbers yourself as it can't know what slot you've placed things in. jv2080_LP8.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a 2080 environment with all the expansion lists. You need to configure the bank numbers yourself as it can't know what slot you've placed things in. Cheers man, looks like a good start. I don't know if you've used it yourself but it seems only to go up to expansion Bank E, program 127. The JV-2080 goes as far as Bank H. I'd just been pottering with the supplied bank message template but haven't quite worked out how I save my own modified ones (the 2080 template seems the same as the 1080 one, it only goes as far as bank D). I'm not totally understanding the correlation between the patches defined in the environment and those you can select in the inspector in the little tab at the bottom. They don't seem to correspond - although I can go into the environment, copy a bank, go back to inspector and paste. Hey, another Logic crash happens when I do that! I dearly wish that was a surprise... In your environment, there's Exp Slot A, for example, which has room for 128 patches. Then there's Exp Slot B, again with room for 128 patches. I can see some example banks and paste in the first 128 patches, but where do I stick the rest (no rude answers please)? It's been years since I played with all this stuff, back in Cubase's Studio Module times when, by copying the expansion data into user RAM, you could extract the names of all the expansion cards and paste them into the correct banks for selection on any machine. I may have grown stupider since then but can't seem to make much progress with this implementation. Is there an online tutorial or something to get me going? I can probably source all the expansion cards' patch names somewhere on the net and maybe get them into a decent format for copying.... Anyway, thanks for the help, sorry to go on so. Getting really sick of crashes though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fader8 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 First, copy all the objects in that environment layer. Start a new project in Logic 8 and paste these in a new env layer. That should avoid crashes. Check out this thread: http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=48145 As expansion cards go, the environment you have now is only useful for the patch lists contained in the text fader objects. As I said before, Logic can't know what hardware slots you've put your cards into, so you need to configure the new multi's and their bank changes yourself. But that thread I linked to has some instructions that will help with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fader8 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Sorry, meant to say start a new project in Logic 9, then paste the objects in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokyfrog Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 OK, I've studied and I'm starting to feel really, really stupid. I notice there's a JV2080 bank already prepared in Logic 9 but it seems to be a copy of the 1080 one, in that it can only select 15 items (?) - so anyway, I made my own following the instructions found here. I hope I got it right but it's hard to tell because it doesn't bring me access to any new banks. I can still only get the JV2080 expansion banks up to about Bank E. My defs www.bogusfocus.com/pn/SS3.png www.bogusfocus.com/pn/SS2.png Logic did give me the warning that no more than 15 banks can be initialised with names (a clue??) - so is it actually impossible after all?Do I, instead, need to make two lots of definitions? As you know, a JV bank can have more than 128 patches hence the MSB/LSB stuff to get at them. Feeling quite defeated... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fader8 Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Since the multi-instrument object has a limit to the number of banks, then you have to create more than one multi-instrument to handle the rest. You could create one for each bank, if you like, that's up to you. Your bank messages don't look right. Try starting with the one I posted above and edit it for each multi you want to create. The patch lists are all contained there too, so you can just copy and paste them into your own multis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokyfrog Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Cheers man, will have another go in a day or so when my headache subsides. Before that I think I'll gnaw my own leg off for some light relief... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokyfrog Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 I may try to get my old copy of Cubase VST working and extract all the patch names from that. The boards I have are: SR-JV80-02 Orchestral SR-JV80-16 Orchestral 2 SR-JV80-05 World SR-JV80-14 Asia SR-JV80-04 Vint Synth SR-JV80-11 Techno SR-JV80-09 Session SR-JV80-13 Vocal With Cubase I can extract all the names into files that are hopefully suitable to paste into Logic. Perhaps this could be useful for someone else as the song I have doesn't have all these boards listed. I don't suppose there's any chance the 15 bank limit will be increased one day as lots of modern instruments have as many or more banks than the JV2080? Thanks again, sorta glad I'm not going bonkers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's a head start. Just 2-click those text faders to open them, copy the patch names and paste them into your multi for that bank.

drumkey87 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I was just watching a vid about this on youtube the other day, this guy has made a template for patch names for the Known synths such as Korg and Roland, here is the template and video link... sflogicninja_environs.logic.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
