Hi Bruno,
Thank you kindly for the reply. Oddly enough, once I restarted Logic X, everything started working just fine. Though I did double check all of my port/channel/send/receive settings within each respective device's prefs and they were all good.
Here's where things get slightly odd (again, probably user error).
When connecting MicroBrute (MB) via External MIDI channel (Logic X), I'm able to play the keys of both MB and SL49 controlling the MB. For whatever reason, Logic X doesn't give me the option to record a single input when using the External MIDI channel, only a stereo input which means any audio recorded from the MB to Logic records as a Left channel. Aside from the strange input recording limitation (which I'm sure is something with the Logic side of things), I'm able to record MIDI, audio and utilize MicroBrute's sequencer with no issue. This leads me to the following...
To rectify the above problem, I created a standard audio channel and MIDI channel (MIDI for notes, audio channel for monitoring/recording). What I noticed is that after pressing record within Logic and trying to play the MB's sequencer, there is no audio or MIDI occurring, it's as if the MB freezes. Yet when I stop recording, the sequencer (and MIDI) works again. Even stranger–if I switch between the audio and MIDI channels repeatedly, everything starts working again.
Is it possible that there is some type of communication/data conflict because I'm using the USB of both the MB, the SL49 and the MIDI Out from SL49 to MIDI In of MB?
Again, this is nothing major and I can certainly work around this little bump, so no rush with regarding to responding to my minor problem. I am still able to thoroughly enjoy this little beast!
Cheers.
