Working with Multi-timbral Tracks/ adding new tracks

[drhoust]

Hi guys

 

Still releatively new to logic and used to cubase in this regard

 

Could someone please tell me how to add new tracks to existing multi-timbral instruments.

Lets say i open up a multitimbral track with 4 tracks for my brass section - then I realise I want to add a french horn solo so i add that into kontakt.

now how would i go about adding a new track to this instance of kontakt?

 

I tried adding a new track and right click assigning it to the "inst 1" where contact is, but it seems to mirror one of the other tracks in that if i change its midi channel to 5 , one of the other 4 tracks also changes its midi channel - as if it was a duplicate of that track

am i making sense?

 

Also is there a way in which i can rename the multitimbral track to "strings" and when i add they are cascaded as strings 1, strings 2 etc.?

 

look forward to your help and getting my score on with logic pro

Try selecting a multi-timbral channel, create "New with same channel strip/instrument" and change its MIDI channel to what you want.
