starsteady Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I have a bunch of random third party au's that I am trying to use in Logic. I have installed them all correctly, and they all show up in my AU sub-menu. My problem is that all of these au plug-ins are effects, and not actually instruments. I want to run other instrument tracks through these 3rd part AU's. I know the solution is something along the lines of adding more outputs, but I am pretty lost. Suggestions? Cheers!

carrierandoperator Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 If I read you right - just load the AU inst as usual, then Audio Instrument Objects have their own inserts so you can insert them directly, without need for any special routing config.

starsteady Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 Ya, you kind of get what i'm saying. All audio objects to have their own inserts, but mine is used. For example, I have the ESX 24 loaded in the instrument slot, there is not other instrument slot for me to put in another AU. I can open that "certain" au fine, just load it into the instrument slot, but then ESX 24 cant be there. I am trying to use this other au plug-in to change the sounds from the ESX 24.

arafel Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Take a look at this attachment. You load your Instruments (Exs24, Ultrabeat, Synths, etc), in an INSTRUMENT SLOT. You load your Effects (filters, pitchshift, ringmod, delays, etc), in an INSERT SLOT (as the effect is 'inserted' into the channel (like it was plugged in hardware chain) The SENDS SLOT, is for 'sending' signal to a Bus channel (set up several separately with effects (reverb, delay, chorus), like on a mixer board. Hope that helps (I really hope i get over the flu soon) Cheers[/b] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starsteady Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 lol. I understand that. BUT, the other AU I am trying to use HAS to be loaded into the istrument slot, where the ESX 24 is already loaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arafel Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Ok... then maybe your looking to 'sidechain'. Lots of info in this forum about it. But this might be what your looking to do (just try with your 'certain' plugins. http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=4152&highlight=sidechain hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
