You could use a Mapped Instrument object in the environment, which really isn't complicated at all, but it could be a pain in the posterior getting the names in there - I can't see a way of pasting in an entire set of names, which would be pretty handy.


There's a section of the manual that deals with that, which is worth a read (and, in my case, probably a second one while I take it in).

You can usually use a patch editor-librarian program like Sound Diver or MidiQuest to copy and paste the patch names (one bank at a time) into the patch name list of a multi-intsrument object in the environment.

That's what I do. Works like a charm.

And you will need to setup bank change commands for your particular instrument, if it does in fact have several banks of internal patches. Logic comes with a selection of bank change commands, one of them will almost always work.


My first copy of Logic came on floppies, two of them I think and was MIDI only, moved up to Logic_Audio at version 3.0 I think.
