Logic Pro 11 // Record MIDI FX with Internal MIDI Routing

In this video I demonstrate how to record MIDI FX from one track down to another track using the new internal MIDI routing feature in Logic Pro 11. Enjoy!

This is huge for external instruments. A massive quality of life improvement together with real time bounce in place

This might be my favourite feature of Logic 11. I've hoped for years that we'd get more flexible modulation or modulation routing options in Logic, and combining this with Reaktor Blocks provides both.

Stick Reaktor one an instrument track, add a midi out module, add whatever LFOs, sequencers etc you need and connect the outputs to the midi CC inputs of the midi module.

Then add a modifier MidiFX plug into any other instrument track, and with the 'learn plugin parameter ' option, you have complex modulation of essentially any parameter of any instrument or effect plugin. And you can route the same modulation to multiple tracks (something previously impossible).

I'm sure there are many alternatives to use instead of Reaktor as well. It's really powerful stuff

That's cool. Something it would be useful for is something I always found a bit of a headscratcher to know what to do with - those occasional effects you get that you put on audio channels but control with MIDI (vocoders being the first example that comes to mind).

[professorSchism]

This is huge for me—one downside of track stacks is that you can't have a MIDI effect on a track stack, so if I wanted to use Chord Trigger + Phrasebox on multiple tracks, I would have to duplicate each effect and the settings/patterns. Now I'll be able to control it in one place.

Bonus: this also unlocks the possibility of using more than 8 MIDI effects in a row, for those of us crazy enough to use that many.

[critical-thought]

That is great - lots of possibilities with that feature!

[wadewilliams]

Great thank you - your voice is so classic with my saved logic videos 🎉

This new feature is fantastic! One used to have to route midi using the environment, or a virtual midi channel but latency could become a problem. Such a simple feature that is so useful especially when dealing with arpeggiators. Thank you for another great video.

Nice!! I will check out this technique with the scaler2 and record some advanced chords in the chordtrack from Logic and then i try this with the midi fx.. the possibilities are nearly limitless and i think the result will be unbelievable complex and musically! Thx for the video!

[issiewizzie]

Great work thanks
I was going to check if anyone knows how to save the cord set so it can be used in another project

[bonafontciel]

I used to route an Arpeggiator from the Environment to a track in the arrangement window in Logic 9 just like it was demonstrated here.

[michaelvarney.]

Wow… this could be really cool… can you modulate a voice synth to the midi track? You can do an imogen heap type thing, or a daft punk thing?

[DavidGilden]

When are we going to be capture the MIDI data output of Sequencers & Arpeggiators in virtual synthesizers (AU format) like
Arturia Pigments, Modular Moog V, Softube Modular, VCV Rack and others...Is this currently possible in VST plugins?

[el-bov]

Thanks for this. Is it now possible to use the sequencers in Kontakt instruments (Piano Colors, for example) to sequence other AU synths, and record the MIDI?

[SomeoneCalledRob]

Another thing that was added was the ability to route the MIDI ouput of (software) instruments to other tracks. Are there any instruments that are known to be compatible with this?

[AARZ]

mac mini m2 8gb ram is a good for logic pro 11 can i do music production with it without any problem without any lagging

[aintjokin]

Whats different from copy pasting clip to instrument channel

[juliana.]

now if we wouldnt be limited to 8 midi slots that would be AMAZING :D i dont think midi plugins are that resource heavy

[sachalevy]

cant you just Copy & paste the midi region into the new instrument or copy and paste the track then change the instrument ?? I don't really understand

[philipkarst]

I'm using Kontakt and when I record I don't get the guitar arpeggio, I get the midi that I created in Kontakt exactly before but not the phrases it plays. Do you have any idea?
