Issue with Live loops Everything stops!

Hi there,

I am happy to assist you and be a part of your Logic Pro experience.

Can you confirm 2 things?

• In the CELL INSPECTOR can you confirm that the "At Rec-End" settings is set to PLAY

• Can you also confirm that when you do record into a Cell that you are using this key command? Please confirm that you are using this key command to record data into the cell and also to get out of recording and back into playback. Using Spacebar would stop the Playback of the Playhead but also the Live Loops themselves.

I may have other suggestions but let's start here. Thank you for taking the time.

Hope this helps and solves your query,

HI there,

I do believe if you try this on a clean session with just 2 tracks and 2 plug-ins, we can get a better sense if this is a Latency issue or not. Also, can you enable this in you Preferences>Audio>Devices:

BTW what is your Buffer Size set to? It should be somewhere in the middle 256/512 is possible.

In my experience, Live Loops does not perform well when you have many CPU intensive plug-ins such as Kontakt., Omnisphere, Keyscape, etc. Try and bounce as many as you can to audio if you are not performing them in live.

Another option is to freeze any tracks using "Source Only", this also may help and still allow you to change plug-in parameters as needed. You will not be able to change the Instrument Source but it can help with CPU management.

Also, do you have this enabled? Input Monitoring Only for the focused track

Hope this helps,

Hi there,

You can Use "Cell Default" to assign CEL LENGTH for specific tracks or cells. Do you remember out earlier thread?

This will allow you to set specific behavior for the "individual cell" or the entire track so every time you pull up a software instrument, the settings have already been pre-configured for you (because you did the work in advance).

When the track is Record Enabled and you have selected an empty cell, it will look like this:

Set the Parameters in the Empty MIDI CELL if you have any preferences and you should be good to go.

If you click just the track, you will see this in the inspector:

If you click on the cell and see the white frame around it, you will see:

Hi there,

Let's start on a new session. If a Scene is playing back by means of the "Scene Trigger", you should be able to record freely into a cell so long as its parameters are set and you are using the appropriate key command/assignment.

Trigger the Scene

At this point, select the Cell you want to record in and make sure that the white line is focused around the CELL like so (Also, be sure the track is record enabled (Key Command = CTRL+R)

When the track is Record Enabled and you have selected an empty cell, it will look like this:

Set the Parameters in the Empty MIDI CELL if you have any preferences and you should be good to go.

To expedite this process...

Can you try this in a new session for me and let me know how it goes?

Hope this helps and solves your query,

Let me know your findings. I ran into this when I got my first “real” computer, you will find your balance and make it work.

Excited about your performances,

Eddie G.

If there is anything else you need, please advise. Hope this helped.
