I hope I can explain this clearly!
Is there any way to have logic 'fetch' a midi instrument when the playhead is positioned half way through it?
When sorting out the merge and positioning of long samples I have to place the playhead before the begining of the midi data, which is a pain when the software instrument is long, such as the nature samples.
Cheers.

Hi
Settings:MIDI:Chase (Notes & Sustained)?

I do remember MIDI Note Chase in Logic being reported as unreliable/buggy, I'll see if I can find those discussions/reports; the recommendation was to keep Note chasing disabled.
So why not just put those long samples as audio files on their own tracks, instead of playing them from a sampler? Then there's no need to chase anything.
Here's the discussion. It seems there is a solution offered in the last post, you can try that, even though it also needs a slight workaround.

Hi
True enough.. chase can be a tad flakey.

Thanks folks.
For the time being my needs for this are simple and it maybe that this is my answer. I am quite new to logic and it maybe that there is a far better way to achieve what I need.
To work with these long samples as audios, would I bounce them out then pull them back in, or is there a better way?
Thanks again.

In most cases, Region:Bounce in Place or Track:Bounce in Place will do the trick in 1 go

Great stuff, I'll give it go.
I must read the manual at some point!
Thanks for your help folks.
