Using PX-7 as a MULTI TRACK sequencer in Logic Pro 8

Using PX-7 as a MULTI TRACK sequencer in Logic Pro 8

2010-04-17 by frendn8

Aloha!

I was wondering if anyone would be so gracious as to give me a step by step on how to get my PX-7 set up to record multiple tracks in Logic Pro 8.

I want to know how to...

1) Get each track on the PX-7 to play a separate track in logic,
2) Get the PX-7 to tell logic to start the recording,
3) Get the arps to trigger all the notes in the designated series (if that doesn't happen automatically)... 

It may sound like a noob question, but I was just hoping for a quick step by step from an experienced user.

Aloha,

-Nate

1) You need to tell Logic to "Auto demix by channel if multitrack recording" (weirdest name for "respect MIDI channels").  There's a tutorial here:
http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=32201

2) Slave Logic to MIDI Clock (the clock button in the transport? I think) and tell the XL-7 to transmit MIDI clock.

3) Not sure what you mean, but there's a "transmit arps" feature on the XL-7.

Note that for all of this, all of your tracks on the XL-7 will need to be set to "Both" (or ext if you don't want the internal synth) as a destination, otherwise, they'll only go to the internal synth.

That said, the MUCH more accurate and reliable way to transfer tracks is via E-loader.  You'll probably have to run parallels or something though.

Would it be a similar process for pro-tools 8? Just started using Transfuser
and its amazing. The PX-7 is an excellent controller for tranfuser (match
made in heaven). I just need to figure out how to control the protools
transport and make a detailed template for transfuser.

EVERYTHING WORKED!!! ...Except for the midi clock sync :(
I don't know what is up with Logic Pro 8
On the forums it says people can't get Logic to run as a slave to any of their gear. One guy said his friend does it with and MPC, but gives no details. 
Went to the MPC site to see what to do and it isnt working. 
Thank you for the info. 
IM ALMOST THERE!!!
