Logic Pro 8 doesn't work at all with Leopard

Hi,

This issue, is, of course, related to the Core Audio engine.

There is probably an incompatible driver that needs to be updated to be compatible with Leopard.

Please consult your audio device manufacturer to ensure you have Leopard compatibility.

And, no, the issue is not Logic Studio, nor Leopard.

Cheers

What audio hardware are you using? I am using RME Fireface 400 and can confirm it works well.

Logic 8 won't open even with no audio interface drivers present (i.e just using the built in audio settings )
neither will LIVE, GARAGE BAND. Although Melodyne, Soundtrack Pro and Garritan will.....so where do I start to find out what the issue is?

Not a great start for LEO in my little world!

Nick,

Are u saying you are running Leopard with Logic 8 as we speak?

Is performance of Logic8 better?
I have a G5 with RME Hammerfall cards.....di I need to get drivers?
Did your fireface just work?

fill us in 😉

Thanx,

SvK

If Disk Utility doesn't work either my guess is you're having a bad upgrade day. Time to start from scratch and do a clean install if you didn't do that the first time.

I'm all backed up and have a working system on another drive. Should be getting Leopard anytime now - just waiting for the doorbell to ring...

I'll let you know how things are on my end later tonight.

Do you have the latest drivers from MOTU? They say there's a leopard update soon, but their current ones have worked fine for me.

Assuming it's not a bad OS install, it's probably a bad driver or plugin. If you've pulled drivers and it still doesn't work, try removing third party plugs and see if that makes a difference.

I'm not surprised PT doesn't work, I'm guessing they won't be compatible for months.

Hopefully you checked both MOTU's and Digi's web site for status updates on Leopard. MOTU has already posted a note on their page regarding drivers (although some drivers reportedly work).

HI,

Try to remove the files in /Library/Application Support/Propellerhead Software/ReWire/

for me it was the melodyne rewire object that made my logic 8 crash

Good luck

Sounds like you may need to update your PACE driver.

I've read around and many have it working fine
but many are having a ReWire comment in their crash log
so P.Frisk suggestion is a good start
