Change new software instrument track default? [SOLVED]

[Mewnor]

Hi,

 

Its driving me nuts that everytime I load up a blank software instrument it loads up "Classic electric Piano" and its associated bus 1 and 2.

 

Is there a preference somewhere to just load up a blank intrument so I can then just load a synth of my choice without having to delete all the buses?

 

Thanks

Just de-select "Open Library" when creating your software instrument track. The new track/channel strip will be blank.

Cheers David that was frying my brain.

You're welcome.

Hello!

 

I'm here 9 years later with another related question. I use the keyboard shortcut opt + cmd + S to create a software instrument. Is there any way I can change the default to "open library" when I use that shortcut?

Hello!

 

I'm here 9 years and 5 minutes later to say that selecting the + sign, choosing software instrument, then choosing empty channel strip + open library has solved my problem. After completing those steps, Logic opens an empty channel strip and the library when I press opt + cmd + S.

 

I'd also like to shout out David who, without his knowledge, has helped me with 90% of the Logic-related questions I've had over the past two years. I hope you're compensated generously for sharing your deep understanding of this software in a never-condescending manner. God bless you, bro.
