LX: MIDI Draw Bug [FIXED]

[ski]

Attempting to draw in a CC1 value of 127 right on a region (MIDI Draw, formerly Hyper Draw), it's only possible to get a maximum value of 126. This "can't get to 127" bug that plagued Logic 9, though it was never a problem in Logic 8 and previous.

 

Even when zooming WAAAAAAAY in to try to get more resolution on the screen, it's still not possible to drag either value of 126 up to 127. Furthermore, if both values are 126 (as confirmed in the Event List), why does the line connecting them appear diagonal? Ergo, two bugs in one.

Confirmed.

Yes too bad! This occurs only for the Midi draw, but sometimes I can go to the 127 value, sometimes not.

 

However, I had a similar issue in Logic 9 with the automation track, that is fixed in Logic X.

Thanks to both of you for your replies.

 

lostmemories, glad to know that the automation version of this bug has been fixed.

Obviously this should be fixed but in real world scenarios 126 or 127? Also with the Event Float it is quick enough to change it.

Real world difference (i.e. necessity) between 126 and 127? Absolutely.

 

Most if not all button/switch controls output either 0 or 127 (so-called "Switch Controllers"). Logic doesn't distinguish between the paradigms of Switch Controller or Continuous Controller when using MIDI Draw, so regardless of which CC you're drawing in data for, the value must go up to 127 without question.

[Ashermusic]

Ak, got it. Anyway, an easy adjustment with the Event Float but obviously it should be fixed.

WORKAROUND

Dragging a node with the Pencil tool allows you to go to 127. The Pointer tool stops at 126.

Thanks for posting about this workaround. That'll be very useful until this bug gets fixed. Cheers!

[Eric Cardenas]

Fixed in Logic Pro X 10.2.

Excellent!

I'm really glad we didn't have to wait for Godot.
