Disable 3rd party plugin warnings?

Recommended Posts

Hi all, does anyone know a way to disable 3rd party plugin warning screens that pop up when opening a project? For example, whenever I open a project that uses iLok plugs and I don't have the dongle hooked up, a screen pops up saying I can't use that plugin on this session (I know that...) and it suspends loading the project until I hit OK. Do that for each 3rd party protected plugin on the project, then Logic's warning window pops up. Any way around this?

About the only thing you can do is this:

 

Launch Logic while holding down the CNTRL key. When the dialog appears asking if you want to disable core audio, say yes. OR, if Logic is already running, and you have a song loaded that has chanves which need to be saved, save it. Then disable Core Audio in the prefs and close out your song (do not re-save).

 

Now load up that song again. Plugins will not load. Next, remove those plugins one at a time manually. Once you're 100% positive that all iLok-based 3rd party plugs are gone, re-enable Core Audio and wait for things to load up. Then, save it under a new name to differentiate it from the original.

(In addition...)

 

I simply rename the project to indicate it needs a dongle.. something like MySong_D so i know before I load it that i need to make sure the dongle is plugged in...

 

I can then, at a glance, know which projects require the dongle and those that don't...

I've been looking for such a check box but so far i haven't found it...

 

But then again, it was only a few weeks ago that i discovered the option in prefs to default to 200% views of the Logic plugins!

 

(Oh how I wish 3rd party plugins would also provide for the same larger displays, as the current ones are really hard to see on a 27" screen....)

I use the Control + mouse-wheel-scroll-in to zoom-in on those pesky GUI.

This would be great if Logic could implement some kind of alien-plugin window-zoomable specific adjustment.

But I am afraid that feature pertain to OS level coding... :(

Control+scroll stopped working for me in Mountain Lion :( Did they remove it or am I just dumb?

Check that it is still 'turned on'

 

Go to System Preferences

 

Go to Accessibility

 

Now Select Zoom on the Left Hand Side and make sure the Use Scroll Gesture.... is checked with the correct setting on the Right Hand Side..

 

Should look like this...

Also... changing the Zoom Style to Picture in Picture mode instead of FullScreen.. is another useful addition...

Wow I guess Apple is just trying to make me look dumb!

 

Well, I found it and turned it back on. Thanks! :)

 

Actually I think it is is bug of some sort that occurs during the installation of Mountain Lion as the same thing happened to me.. It somehow got turned OFF... because it certainly was set to ON prior to upgrading!

 

So, in summary;

 

You aren't dumb..... Blame Apple instead!

 

:)
