Logic Pro X

[Clean Reals]

Drag in midi from browser and it plays something else (track is not quantized or pitch shifted )
I audition beat in browser, it sounds fine using follow host…drag to timeline and not the same

note that same midi track which was imported midi from pro tools plays all ez beats no prob (first created midi using ez in pt) …only if i add a new beat to a section

I am having a hard time reproducing here. I run PT 12.4 and Logic Pro X 10.2 and EZdrummer 2.1.1.
Could you perhaps zip the Logic Session and attach it to a post here?

Thanks, I’ll look into it and get back.

the solution was to create a logic Drummer track > change inst to EZD2 > import pt midi via EZD2 then to track

Hi,

I guess I am not Logic-savvy enough to understand what’s going on exactly in your Project but something’s different than a “normal”, clean Project.
I get the same strange behavior when dropping MIDI from the Browser to the Track; like a MIDI transform of sorts is happening. I can’t make this happen in any other circumstance, though. Is it the same for you? If you start a new Project, you can’t make it happen again, right?

Is there any particular reason why you use “External MIDI” tracks instead of the more commonly used “Software Instrument” tracks?

i have the same problem dragging and dropping my Jabo drum kit. Jab is using a woodblock and it will not play in Logic. the sound ends up as a rim shot and you cannot change in Logic.

Hi, what do you mean with ‘you cannot change in Logic’?

You must be able to drag a note, or?

Do you have any Transforms in your environment?

If you post a zipped logicx project file, I can take a look at it if you want.

BR,

John

If the EZdrummer 2 plays the MIDI differently, if the MIDI is placed in a DAW vs. the MIDI being placed on the song track of EZdrummer 2, it’s in most cases because there’s a e-drum preset selected in EZdrummer 2 – which changes the MIDI mapping for incoming MIDI.

in logic pro, i go into piano roll and hi lite the hi hat, which is suppose to be the woodblock in EZD2 Jabo EZX kit, i than scroll up & down in piano roll to find a woodblock sound. there isn’t one. i have checked everything in logic and all tracks say EZD2.

when i first set up logic, i click what type of instrument i want to start with, midi guitar bass ezd2, etc. i click on ezd2 click how many tracks, ok. on left it shows  how midi tracks i have. i than go to EZD2 find a groove from Funk Masters Jabo. it has a woodblock in stead of ride cymbal or hi hat as the power hand. when i drag and drop into logic and hit play. the woodblock is now replaced with a open hi hat.

my question is how do i get the woodblock from EZD2 to play correctly in logic?

i think i figured it out how??? but i would like everyones ideas on how to. please & thank you!!

on a separate note. who do you use to copyright your songs? my nephew uses Crybaby. who do you use?

thank you!!!

You can check the MIDI note number/key name for each instrument and articulation in In EZdrummer 2.

• Right click the instrument you want information for and click “Details” in the bottom right corner of the popup.
• The Articulations for the instrument are listed with their Note Number.
  • Press the “Key” button (top right corner) to see key names instead.
• In the bottom right corner there’s a “MIDI In” area, which shows the latest received MIDI note/key
  • This is useful when you’re trying to track down where the articulations are placed on a keyboard.
