This is one of my favourite new fearures, mostly because it can receive output from Reaktor (specifically Reaktor Blocks). Combined with a modifier midifx plugin on the destination track (to assign incoming midi data), it essentially becomes a supercharged modulator that can control multiple parameters in any instrument or effect plug-in.
Thanks for this very informative video. I'm still a relative newcomer to DAW's in general so please excuse this possible dumb question. But I'm wondering if one of the potentially very useful benefits of Apple's decision to finally add internal routing of MIDI between tracks is that it will now be possible to readily record the MIDI output of certain VSTs - for example chord generators like Scaler 2 or arpeggiated rhythm generators like Native Instruments' Session Percussionist. My understanding is that up until now, Logic Pro was only able to record the single trigger notes or simple block chord inputs that one might play on a MIDI controller to generate those complex generated patterns like in Scaler, but not be able to record those complex patterns themselves. At least not unless they resorted to using Logic's IAC, environment and MIDI stacking capabilities. But doing that was a fairly complex and cumbersome workaround and prone to instability. So correct me if I'm wrong, but with this new internal MIDI routing now built in, recording the 'true' output of these VST's should be significantly easier to accomplish, as it is in other DAWs like Ableton and Cubase?
You can record the output of Kontakt HOWEVER you’ll need a third party plugin like the free Element by Kushview. You’ll need to load the VST3 version of Kontakt inside of Element before routing everything using the Internal MIDI In feature. I tested it and it works beautifully. Now I can record the patterns in Native Instruments Playbox.
Thanks for highlighting the Moog 15 Midi bridge, very cool. I would love to be able to capture the output of Sequencers & Arpeggiators in Audio Units virtual instruments like Arturia Pigments, Modular Moog V, Softube Modular, VCV Rack and others...
Hi there, Thank you for all your videos. I am quite new to logic pro, i have been a loyal user of reaper, and now i want to try it out with logic pro. I just have one question, is there a way where we can add a monitoring effect as in reaper where it only effect the output of the final master bus to apply corrective eq for the room, or maybe to simulate the mix for different speaker system. During Rendering, these effects won't affect the mix. Is there a way we can do this in logic pro?
Logic Pro MIDI keyboard is switching screen sets when I try to play/rec and I'm not receiving MIDI input to project. Anybody seen this? Thanks. I tried Midi Monitor and everything is working. Has to be a Logic 11 problem...why
I always knew I should have put much more time into actually learning about MIDI and routing as opposed to just noodling around with controllers and synth plugin presets. This might not have seemed so impenetrable.
Did they also finally make it possible to select more than one midi instrument (real life) to be selectable on each channel strip? I use four sets of midi drums to make one large kit and I otherwise currently have to select 'all' which causes problems when I want to have a 5th synth or something playing. It would be nice to rule out which inputs I don't want on a channel.
You mean since Apple bought Emagic? Twenty-frickin-two years ago!?! That was before the US invaded Iraq you know! Sadaam still in power. That was five years before Microsoft introduced Vista to the world! ..or should I say unleashed.. Two years before Facebook was a thing. Three years before UA-cam appeared. MySpace hadn’t even been launched yet! You have to be trolling. This must sarcasm. Right?

Finally proper modular routing for MIDI! 😀
Was waiting for midi routing more than for all those ai features.

Test it with Scalar 2.

I’d still like to be able to route MIDI effects to audio effects on audio tracks and sends.here’s hoping that they allow this one day…
1000% agree
Ok. Fine. When Logic will be able to pass midi past the instrument and see midi on audio tracks let me know. I may consider.
Literally was just looking this up. And catching up why/how it updated
Hopefully it helps! It took me a minute to wrap my brain around it
Amazing

Unfortunately no. You can add them to the output tracks but then you have to turn them off before exporting.
@@LogicProLife Right.. It would have been cool to have it as a necessary feature..
another experiment is to load any session play and send the midi out to another instrument ...so much fun

The implementation here is not so simple… I had to mess with it for a bit to understand what was going on.

They’ve had independent MIDI inputs for a little while now.
@@LogicProLife yes but can only select one at a time. Was hoping to select several simultaneously.
Oooh. I bet you could do this in the environment.
Thank you! Very good lesson 🤝🏻
Can i also use this midi routing to change settings in plugins on a audio track? (Patch changes in guitar amps plugins, or on serum FX)
Cannot be used on audio tracks. Only works for MIDI tracks.
where is the logic 11 I have the latest OS I went to update but It is not there Please let me know thank you
No longer need a midi interface I can route it to external instruments and record in
isnt this what busses are used for?
Busses = audio // this video = MIDI
This is what i mean when i say Logic has become bloatware ever since Apple took over.

Dude, it's been 22 years, get over it
This is basic MIDI routing that is available in most other DAWs.
@@SomeoneCalledRob yeah i know. It's pretty pointless isn't it
@@kompositesound aye, buddy. Relax
