Logic Pro X and Mavericks

I will happily attest that I am running Mavericks with Logic Pro X on my 2010 MacBook Air, along with NI Komplete, with no issues.

My workflow hasn't been affected whatsoever. I'm delighted.

Cool. What else do you have in your set-up, hardware wise. Sound card? Control surface? Keyboard(s) etc.

To list them would help others with similar hardware, I/O etc who are considering upgrading their OS

I wish I could say the same. Mavericks on a 2010 iMac with NI Komplete 9, and I am having a number of issues. Kontakt 5 has been crashing on a fairly regular basis with heap corruption errors, LPX beat mapping isn't working for me more than half of the time (didn't experience any problem with same prior to Mavericks), and LPX itself is crashing occasionally as well (e.g., sometimes when I close a project).

I should have waited before doing the upgrade. Lesson learned ... now I can only hope that these companies eventually address these issues so that I can get my studio back.

Other system details: Apogee Duet 2 with the new 10.9 driver, Mackie MCU Pro control surface, Novation Impulse 61 controller (but without the Automap software), Akai MPD32.

Hey Art, Hi All,

Just a bit of an update with my Motu issues.

Have been in touch with Tech Support who are amazing at Motu! Unfortunately they haven't been able to re-create my issue of audio loss through an external interface, but they did just mention that another customer of theirs has got the issue! The only difference they think at this moment throughout their testing is that this may have something to do with the Haswell generation of Intel processors.

Sorry to hear about your issues, that's a very impressive and expensive piece of software not working for you and I can really empathise!

It does seem that there is an issue with Mavericks concerning it's own hardware and 3rd party HW/SW

Speak Soon,

I own both LP9 and LPX... would upgrading to Mavericks on a 2.4 Core2Duo (4gb RAM) iMac allow me to run LPX?

Hey guys, im getting this problem when opening up old sessions.

i just got the new retina MBP w/mavericks

logic is looking in the root insert list rather then in the audio units folder for my third party plugins

all of the plugins are installed and working in the AU manager its just that logic keeps looking in the wrong spot

when i replace the crossed out plugins with the same plug in all the settings go to the default values which is not usable...

anybody have an idea of whats happening?

this is killing me!!

thanks

Hi Art...first of all thanks for taking the time to post.

I unfortunately upgraded to Mavericks without reading the warning first and it's been a nightmare. Logic 9 isn't working at all well (experiencing major hangups and have lost multi monitor support) so I want to go back to using 10.8.5 somehow.

I just learned that Super Duper doesn't keep dated clones, only the latest so I overwrote post Mavericks Doh!

Wish I had read your post beofre.

I got Logic X a day or two after it came out and put it on my MBP Retina. Installation was pain free with none of the content download issues that others have experienced. It's been running well on that machine with an Apogee Duet, UAD2 Satellite and LaCie Thunderbolt drive. I've had a few crashes but stability-wise, I'm pretty happy with it. The auto save feature is an excellent new addition and works as expected when the rare crash does occur.

I waited a while longer to upgrade my studio machine, an older MacPro tower. Again, no problems running it with two UAD cards, a pair of Metric Halo 2882 interfaces and a Raptor 10k RPM drive. On the studio machine, I record 16 - 24 tracks at a time with the buffers at 64. (I feed the digital headphone system via software monitoring over aux sends like a traditional analog set-up.) Again, mostly problem free, except for some audio glitches while scrolling during playback, as some others have reported. No clipping during mixing with larger buffer settings.

Both machines upgraded to Mavericks with no problems.

Thankful to be among the lucky ones this time around.

This is my nemissis, while trying to instal LPX...any solutions to this problem - using Maverick, also.

Logic Pro X is only delivered via the Mac App Store as a direct download and not as a disk image from BitTorrent...

Maybe before I allowed all the ASSumptions to be made, I should have mentioned that I backed up the downloaded it to a cd (DVD) in the event my system crashed, which a previous update caused data loss, therefore, I tried to reinstall it with the disc...

Since the post of my origianl question, I have reinstalled the software from my "purchase history..."

So, keep your ASSUming finger pointing self righteous name calling ***** calm...

blaqueruestir,

Being a pirate is one thing, and implying that good helpful people on here are ***'s is another, but on top of that being such a deliberate blatant liar really is really pushing things somewhat.

Check this link out: http://bit.ly/18tscT9 - Is that some crazy coincendence that not only are you installing from a disk image, but that the google search results for the image you have matches pages of illegal bit torrent downloads?

Generally, i think most people accept that piracy happens with audio software, especially when combining expensive software and the 'curious' home/hobby market. But then something like LPX comes along, and honestly, it's an absolute steal for you what you get and it really takes the p*** that musicians/producers would pirate it, in fact it gets me down to think about it as they're probably wearing jackets/trainers that would cost near the same.

On top of that you're potentially going to be making money selling music from the app (And it's included content) too : https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3366091?answerId=22983316022#22983316022

Do the right thing man! And you'll be supporting future versions.
