Title: Spark and Logic Express?
Post by: fluxsta on September 10, 2012, 04:02:41 am
Hi all,

My spark shows up in logic express in the audio manager units but doesn't when I try to select on a channel? Anyone had any experience of this? Help gratefully received

Hi,
Is the au validation passed?
Can you send a screenshot of the Audio Unit Manager?

Kevin as promised a screenshot to show that it has successfully validate but doesn't show up anywhere?

Any ideas, i am sure that there is something simple i am missing, and a step by step would be really useful? Thanks mate

Kevin, I also followed this from the knowledge base:


"Please close all applications, then delete:
 /Users/<yourname>/Library/Caches/com.apple.audiounits.cache

Launch Logic > Preferences > Audio Units Manager, select the plug-in(s) and run a validation tests: it should complete fine now"


This didn't fix it?

Thanks

I think you are not looking at the right place.
Because all the Audio Unit listed are FXs.
Did you create aSoftware Instrument track or an Audio Track?
You have to create a software instrument track then click on the I/O not Insert (see attached screenshot).
It should be listed here.

Yep, nice one. What I was doing was creating a software instrument from scratch and by default it selects EVP electric piano, but all good when I created a new track 'Inst 2'......I/O works and it shows up. Now......just need to get sound out of this, no sound thus far

Cheers kevin
