Yes, it doesn't work properly. I use Logic project for playing backing tracks / automating live efx on vocals. All was done on previous LPro version 10.7.x, there everything worked. After updating to the newest version, saved bypass automations still work, but they are labeled by numbers with "unused" remark in bracket and I cannot add new bypass automations as they are simply not available. Very annoying bug !



EDIT: just few mins ago a Logic 11.2.1. update notification popped up and after the installation everything works as it should. Perfect, thanks !

As soon as I posted about this Automation problem a couple of days ago I got an Apple email notification saying that I had an "upvote" and thanking me. The message also described that this thread had been viewed 976 times, so my first question is why is that 976 times info not shown in the thread so that people can see the level of interest? There seems to me to be a lot of shared interest/concern about this problem,

Your assumptions are just wrong. The number of views is displayed on the main page of this forum.


so my second question is why doesn't Apple respond and/or fix this problem? I'm not able to find a workaround. Referring to the response here from QuantumVerse111, "...it could be due to a software glitch..."

Have you (ever) reported the bug to Apple via Feedback - Logic Pro - Apple ?

yoyoBen - I didn't make an assumption. I asked a question about why the view count was not shown in this thread. Thank you for letting me know that I can visit the main page to find that. Incidentally, in doing so I see that this thread now has 1172 views and is by far the most popular topic currently shown there.


To answer your question, I have made multiple reports to Apple using the Feedback link, and I have been sharing it with others so that they can do the same. Further, in trying to reach Apple to fix this problem for weeks now I have been leaving crap reviews for Logic Pro at the app store where I add the links to this page, as well as to the Facebook groups where the same problem is described. I'm loathe to do this because I have loved Logic Pro for many years! While they will typically show critical reviews, they're not showing mine about broken Automation being incredibly problematic. Four weeks and counting...
