OT Can't find GarageBand Jam Pack 4 inst in L7

OT Can't find GarageBand Jam Pack 4 inst in L7

2005-09-25 by Jim Seaman

Hi

For the last 4 hours I've been trying to find the jam pack 4 software 
instruments that I'm using in garage band 2 in logic 7.1
The logic literature leads me to believe this is possible,  but I 
haven't been successful.
I've created an audio instrument track in the arrange window then in 
the track mixer under   I/O I select stereo/ AU instruments/ logic/ 
garage band instruments but jam pack 4 does not appear.
I have no trouble playing jam pack instruments in garage band.
I've tried importing my garage band file (with jam pack instruments) 
into L7 and tried dropping my jam pack instrument files into the L7 
arrange window but the apple " file/find "
can't locate either.
Am I trying to go where no man has gone before?
Anyone have any tips?

Too many questions
Too much time
Jim

I can confirm it¹s possible because it works on my system.  Did you install
Jam Pack and then add Logic later.  If so, you might need to reinstall Jam
Pack so it puts the aliases to the right places in Logic¹s folders.

Or you could try locating the Logic AU instruments folder and putting an
alias in there to the Garageband folder that contains the instruments.


Good luck

Just where on your hard drive did the software inst. end up after you  
installed Jam Pack 4?
I'm having the same problem with locating my jam pack 3 soft inst.
Can't figure what I'm missing.
Anyone able to enlighten me on this?

Thanks,
Jim

I'm not sure where they were installed.  I'll take a look next time I am on
that system in a day or two.

Meanwhile, Please clarify what you are looking for - are you looking for a
certain AU instrument, or are you looking for the Jam Pack EXS instrument
files?

Mostly as I recall, the Jam Packs are collections of Apple Loops.

Please provide more specifics and I'll take a look.

----I don't care what category it falls under I want to be able to use  
the orchestra tuba si of     jp 4 in LP7.
     The method I use to assign  a si to a track in LP7 is to select the  
si via the I/O of a track mixer channel (strip)
AU instruments in the track mixer  are a sub category and I see no  
access to any specific si.
If I choose the EXS instuments option in the I/O of the mixer channel  
then the EXS24 opens but there is no orchestral tuba si available (I  
believe there are no jp inst available here)
If I look under I/O-stereo-logic-gb same thing(no orchestral tuba si  
available (I believe there are no jp inst available here either.)
======================================================================
> Mostly as I recall, the Jam Packs are collections of Apple Loops.
----Yes, but they also have some si.
jp 3 has over 50 si and jp 4 has 30.
====================================================================
> Please provide more specifics and I'll take a look.
---The only way that I know to get the jp si into LP7 is to import a gb  
file into LP7.
   This works fine but is not a very eloquent way of doing things.
The LP7 reference manual states on pg. 77 states " Once the gb song is  
imported into logic, you may freely change.................instrument.
I don't think this is possible if you wish to change from a jp si to a  
different jp si because they are not listed in any track mixer I/O  
menu.
None that I've been able to find.

Thanks for any assistance.
