All is well here, still testing but... UAD-2, switching sample rates, etc, no problems. Running for about 4 hours now and throwing everything I can think of at it, so far very stable!
So you are using an Ensemble, Maestro, Main Stage, with Logic 9 with Snow Leopard and so far no problems? This was exactly my question... PLEASE CONFIRM!
since i upgrade to snow leo, logic 9 quits all the time with one of my project, what was ok before. =( i dont know what is the problem. i put back my 10.5.8 system from my back up hd, and everything is good. after i tried again to upgrade to the snow leo, and logic quits again with this project, just like that, without any error message. i am sad. =(
Maybe you have some incompatible Plug Ins involved in that project? Disable Core Audio by holding down control whilst booting Logic - disable Core Audio - open the project - bypass all Plug Ins - bring back the Plugs one by one until you've found the culprit.
Sampleconstruct, thank you. i will try. but how could be incompatible plug in? the project and all plug in was ok on 10.5.8. i dont understand. =( i will let you know what is the result.
I was referring to 3rd party Plugs which are not yet compatible with OSX 10.5.6 - if you don't use any 3rd party Plugs in that project forget my advice.
The first time Logic 9 starts up after installing SL, it checks all the plugins. As soon as it tried to validate the first Waves plugin, a popup warned that I needed to reinstall the Interlok Extensions (ilok) software and directed me to the correct webpage. I downloaded and installed that and without skipping a beat Logic 9 continued the plugin validation. Smooth as silk.
Of all my plugins (Waves Platinum, various UAD-2, NI Komplete 5, Arturia Analog Factory, and lord knows what else) the only ones that would not validate after updating to SL was the mono version of Waves IR-L. The stereo version validated successfully, as did the m->s, just not the mono. Oh well, I wasn't using the mono version anyway.
Also saw something interesting that I had never noticed before during validation: Instead of one plugin name coming up, there were two unrelated plugins it seemed to be testing at once. For instance "UAD-2 Pultec Pro NI Guitar Rig 3" or "Arturia Analog Factory Waves C4". Maybe it was multitasking with better multicore support?
I opened a few of the more complex, plugin intensive projects and everything seemed perfectly fine.
Will report back later after I have a chance to do some recording and put it through the paces. But so far, I'm happy with plugin validation and the overall smoooothness of Snow Leopard.
To summarize what seems to be installing and operating hitch-free in Snow Leopard:
Apogee Ensemble
UAD-2 plugins
Waves GTR3 Native and Waves Platinum Native (upon AU validation Logic automatically directs to iLok website to download the installer again; after reinstalling iLok driver all Waves plugins work except IR-L MONO version.)
Arturia Analog Factory
Native Instruments Komplete 5
Sampleconstruct , finally i found the problem.
one of the omnisphere patch was the culprit.
i will look for another similar sounding patch.
thanks the idea!
now works everything is fine. =)
Yes to all except Main Stage, I don't use it (so far) but I could open it and check it out. Ensemble has trouble switching between sample rates occasionally, but that is an easy fix and was there way before Snow Leopard. I am on a gig now, but will do more testing tonight... so far a very smooth transition.
Now after all that Snow Leopard hype - what's the deal, what are the benefits besides having yet another "new" OSX on your system. Is Logic performing any better - does it produce more hits - can it finally make Cappuccino or at least Latte Machiato?
Yeah, I'd love to know if it actually manages RAM and processors better because that's the only reason it'd be worth upgrading if everything else is pretty much the same.
I'm actually counting on it doing a better job because when I first read about the 64bit and GCD technologies in SL I bought a total of 10gb of RAM in hopes that Logic would use all of it better. Is this the case?
