In the Midi/eDrums settings, you will find maps for BFD. You can use them to play your grooves from BFD. However, you may have to export them from BFD to individual midi files in order to use them in SD3, as BFD’s grooves are in a proprietary format.

And on top of the greeter you also have Edit Play Styles in which you can move your notes around graphically as well as make various adjustments.

You don’t create independent midi tracks for multiple outputs. In Logic’s mixer, you will see a “+” on the instrument channel strip. Pressing that will create multiple output channels for SD3. In SD3’s mixer, you then route your instruments to those outputs.

however, if you are going to be giving a studio your audio, then it is probably best that you simply bounce your raw kit pieces from SD3.

The Raven is nothing more than a giant touchsceen monitor. It’s not even a tablet. This means that it will cost you a display port in your Mac. If your Mac is using its supported limit, you would have to sacrifice a display for it. You not only require drivers to use it (it’s not simply plug-and-play), but it’s drivers are mainly geared to the DAW so when it’s all said and done and you quit Logic at the end of the day, you have a glorified monitor (or touch graphic tablet if it even does that much on its own) taking up space. But, hey, if that’s your thing, who am I to sway you?

Well, I don’t now much about Splashtop, but what do I get more? In this case I have to control Logic Pro und SD3 within, over my very little screen from my iPad. How could that be better in relationship to a multiplied iPad (9” *3 = 27” this is what you get on surface with a Raven). And I have to by 60 € p. a. for the service.

SplashTop is free for Wi-Fi. I use all the time. Unless you plan to control SD3 from Canada, you don’t need to pay for Internet access to do what you want to do. You can focus your iPad on a single display and use pinch & zoom to zero in on your controls within SD3. I use a 9″ iPad without issue controlling SD3, UAD plug-ins and a lot more.

I do most of this in my recording area with is out of arm’s reach, which is critical for me since I will be making all of these adjustments in front of a microphone and they have to be made while I am in the recording position. SplashTop is perfect for this.

True, Logic Remote doesn’t open plug-ins. It’s still extremely useful, however. I use that on my iPhone more than my iPad and have it set up to quickly add new tracks and set my recording position, as well as start and stop recording from my recording area, without moving. When I have it running on my iPad, I can multi-touch faders and them simultaneously.

In any of this, I have no fat-fingering issues on a tablet.

And, at the end of the end when I turn off Logic, I have a tablet that I can take with me. If I get any new musical ideas, I can do them in GarageBand on the tablet (which I am sure will change once the transition to ARM is complete) and load it into Logic when I am back on the computer. Not to mention that I use my iPad for a lot of other things these days. It has also come to the point where I anything I can do on my iPad, I can do on my iPhone.

Yes, an iPad may be smaller than the Raven, but it is far more useful. Admittedly, I am more old school when it comes to mixing and mixing boards and prefer a physical control surface rather than something out of a Romulan Warbird.

Why would anybody want to waste their money on an overgrown tablet that takes up too much space and has only one functionality?

You would get far more mileage out of an iPad or iPad Pro. And in combination with Splashtop, or any other remoting type of app, you can then control both Logic and SD3 on your Wi-Fi.

Hi Phil Angus,

In which program did you adjust these settings? Is there anything like that for Logic Pro?

There are a few ways to do this in Logic Pro, with the easiest of all being to open your Project Settings and select Midi, followed by the Input Filter tab.

Note however, that this will filter all control changes from every device. If you need something a little more granular, you can either create a real time transformation in the Environment window, or a JavaScript midi FX.

You can create a default project with them on.

Yes, you can do this. Once you get your midi into EZ keys, you can then mess with the chord progressions using the circle of fifths tool and use the midi with EZK over your progressions.

I haven’t experienced anything like this either. If you can provide some confirmed steps, that would be helpful.

That is essentially what I am doing at the moment. Thank you, Scott, for looking into this.

I only have a precious few songs that I have re-recorded over and over as technology changed. My only incentive for the ones that I had re-mixed over again was because of drums like The Rock Foundry breathed a while new life into them. Other than that, the rest of my songs serve as lessons, even if it is what not to do.

As far as the 25 goes, these are songs that I either haven’t mixed yet, were incomplete, or were still in the idea phase and I was entertaining my new found confidence playing bass. Only one of those was built from scratch, and even then it was an experiment where I picked a groove and was pondering what I could do on bass.

You change the key you change the tonal center. Or the tonal home if you will.

This is not only incorrect, but is a myopic view of key signatures as well. Key signatures are basically a rule as to how a scale or progression would sound. However, western diatonic key signatures embodies seven tonal centres within it, all depending on which note of the major scale you begin with. Stating whether a key signature is the major or its relative minor does not define the tonal center. The progression itself defines the tonal  center.  The key signature is just a rule as to how that tunnel centre is supposed to sound. Most of the midi packs, or at least the ones that I have, are only representing two most popular tonal centres within a key signature. They are not the only ones, and I am willing to bet that if they were done in a midi pack, people as yourself might view them as incorrect. I witnessed some examples on some of the audio production forums where people stated that the solo was tonally wrong, but it wasn’t because it started on a more unusual note in the scale.

Whatever either way changing keys in Ez doesn’t do that.

It changes the key, as it should. It doesn’t change the progression that is relative to the key. Nor would I want it to, especially if I had a progression based on something other than the major or its relative minor.  If I had crafted a Phrygian (songs like opening of Space Oddity) or Mixolydian (songs like Sweet Home Alabama) or the unlikely Locrian (opening of YYZ) progression there is no way I would want them altered as they are still relative to whatever key signature is represented and are very relevant.

$29USD from this part of the world as well. Are you sure you’re not looking at an EZX or other expansion pack?

It would always help to know what key your song is in and match it within EZ Keys. That way, the browser Midi would remain somewhat predictable for your progression (unless you want to get experimental and see where something goes as far as modal characteristics to the absolute freaky)
