Re: [exs] Free Spectrasonics library if you can figure this out first!

2001-12-06 by Robert J Grierson

Hi Eric
I have found that the environment cabling on virtual instruments will only work
if you have
Logic actually playing and the virtual/Classic MIDI option enabled in the MIDI
communication page.

Example:
#1 Create a new instrument in the environment then cable it to both of the
Virtual Audio Instruments
you want to use.

#2 In the arrange page choose the new instrument you created then start Logic
running
both sounds should be playing.

There will be some latency on one of the sounds
