I’ve just downloaded renoise2.1 and am trying to rewire renoise to logic 7.2 (logic as master). (im using OS X 10.4.11 btw)
It seems to sync up ok (when i press play, they both play). But there is no sign of renoise’s audio channels in logic’s inputs where i’d expect to see them (see image below).
I’ve read through these instructions http://www.scene.org/~esa/renoise/ but A. they are for logic 8 and B. you cant set busses as audio inputs in logic 7.2.
I removed the folder Library/Application Support/Propellerhead Software and the file ReWire (which is also in Library/Application Support) - I actually just moved them both to the desktop because I didn’t want to delete them.
Then I started Logic, then ReNoise - a which point it asked to install the rewire files, accept.
Then I closed down renoise, then logic - and then started Logic, then renoise.
Actually, scratch that… I thought I had it working (well I do kinda but I’ve come up against another weirder problem).
As you can see from the pic, this forces most of my other rewire apps to not appear in the list (because i removed the relevant rewire folder).
So I thought “thats fine, i just need to start the apps individually to get them to copy their rewire files to that folder”. So I started reason - it asked for permission to install the files, fine. Then I started MAX/MSP… no such dialog box appeared and when I started logic to check, it wasn’t in the list.
So I went back to the original “propellerheads software” folder that i had moved to the desktop and copied the MAX/MSP rewire alias to the “library/application support/propellerheads software/rewire” folder and started logic to check.
Now, MAX/MSP appears in the list, but Renoise has disappeared!
I removed the MAX/MSP rewire alias, started logic - Renoise is back.
So does this mean there is a conflict between MAX/MSP rewire and Renoise rewire?
If any Logic 8 / MaxMSP users could recreate this problem - that would be a great help as it could persuade cycling74 to produce a fix… maybe (Yes i know this is moving away from a Renoise issue - but it’s for the greater good, isn’t it?)
