Hola,
My friend owns a mac and the whole big logic suite including all of their plug-ins. If he installs Live on that machine, can he run stuff like ES 1 & 2 and all the other stuff that comes with logic in Live?
thanks!
logic suite plug-in question
Actually it is possible with a bit of workaround:
This posted a while ago:
(substitute 'Logic' for 'Mainstage' - works the same)
Soundflower is a free app that creates virtual audio bus between apps.
iac does the same for midi, built into the OS
<<what you need:
a. a mac
b. the internal iac bus turned on
c. soundflower from cycling 74
d. mainstage
e. live
install soundflower
reboot
open audio midi setup
under the audio menu select aggregate device
select the soundflower device (whichever on you want, 2 or 16 channe)
select the other device (built in, external whatever you are using)
you now have a new virtual audio device that is actually
two devices in one.
open live
open mainstage
in the prefs for each choose the aggregate audio device as the io
choose the internal midi iac bus as the midi io
insert a new external instrument device in live ( 7 needed)
or create 1 new midi and 1 new audio channel.
midi will go out the aic
audio will be an input on the aggregate device
in mainstage you will need to make the audio output the same
as the input you chose from live, using soundflower this
should pass audio straight into live (with latency)
select your midi in mirroring the midi out you chose in live
now mainstage should recieve midi data from live, and
send the resulting audio back into live.>>
