hazy Davey Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 (edited) Hello, experts I'm using Logic Express 9.1 and M-Audio KeyRig 49 usb keyboard and just recently noticed one weird thing: pitch bend knob on the keyboard (M-Audio) started to control also the volume along with pitch bend, and default volume slider stopped working. It looks like it had happened for no obvious reason, there were no settings changes, no heavy objects falling on the keyboard etc... I'm trying to look into M-Audio troubleshooting, so far, for no avail... Wondering, can it be Logic problem? Unfortunately, there is no other keyboard controller available at this time, so I can't just take another one, plug in and try. Other than that there is no problems, Logic works well. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Cheers HD Edited August 27, 2012 by hazy Davey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Look up your M-Audio manual for a "factory reset" of the KeyRig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwood Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I am having the same problem using an old Roland A-80. Factory reset, but still didn't help problem Curiously, the pitch wheel does not cause this ever, only the joystick. Really infuriating for a few years now.

hazy Davey Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 I'm already kinda used to that... I'm just wondering, if I connect another midi keyboard, will the problem persist? Should try, of course, but I'm recording 90% guitars. Haven't touched the wheel for awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwood Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I thought the problem went away a while back (from previous posts a couple years ago.) It's back again. Connecting another keyboard could help you troubleshoot I guess, but I have had problems connecting two at the same time, trying to get them to do different things, I'll just say. I do have an M-audio controller here I use occasionally when I need true waterfall action for organ/synth parts, but it doesn't have a joystick to test whether the CC7 problem is hardware or software related. So weird, as relatively simple as MIDI architecture is (compared to a DAW like Logic), there isn't some backward-engineered, simple interface for, say, plugging in a new, additional device, where it goes (hey, nice new controller—what would you like to call it, and what would you like it to do?) Let's not talk about the environment editor—I've only ever done more harm than good in there, and had to reset to defaults several times. Yes, I know it's powerful—maybe too powerful a hammer for a fly as simple as MIDI. This is one of the few instances where I wouldn't mind a "Clippy" type character dancing around, singing a song asking me what I want to do.

hazy Davey Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Right now it annoys me even more as I don't know why it happens rather because I can't use certain effect on the keyboard... But it's definitely weird... Good name for new composition: "Weird Midi Logic" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Cardenas Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 No this isn't a Logic problem. It has probably something to do with your keyboard. You can filter out the unwanted messages if you want. Open the Environment and navigate to the Click and Ports Layer. Connect a transformer object between the Physical Input and the Sequencer Input.

dwood Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Again, why should anyone have to go through that to correct an inherent problem? MIDI is 30 years old, for cryin' out loud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Cardenas Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 It's either that or sending your keyboard for repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please add your Logic version and system info to your signature: Forum Rules - please READ THIS before posting (#5) BTW: Can you provide a screen shot of your Event List showing a selected region that inhibits this problem?

hazy Davey Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Thanks, Eric; I'll try filtering of course. Profile updated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
