[. . . ] Improvements in Logic Pro 7. 1
The Logic Pro 7. 1 Update delivers multiple performance enhancements and increases overall stability, in addition to the new functionality described in the "What's New in Logic Pro 7. 1" PDF. The following sections describe enhancements and known problems in Logic Pro 7. 0. 1 that have been addressed in the Logic Pro 7. 1 Update. Performance Improvements - Redrawing of Regions in Arrange window has been optimized. - Performance has been accelerated when saving a project with the "Copy Space Designer IR's" option active. [. . . ] Control Surfaces - Pressing backspace while the cursor is in the Value Change field (Input message section) no longer potentially causes Logic to quit unexpectedly. (Including the problem, that only the first position after the decimal point of the Logic/Mackie Control firmware version was shown. ) - Entering/leaving an EQ edit mode opens/closes the EQ's Plug-in window (as in other plug-in edit modes). - If a control surface displays the current Nudge value while the active window displays a protected track, the "Track is protected" alert is no longer produced. - Deleting a control surface no longer deletes all controller assignments. - Copying/cutting the last mode in a zone also copied/cut the next zone, without it's modes. - Editing a label in the Controller Assignments window's Expert view now works as expected. - Opening the Preferences > Control Surfaces menu when no song is open no longer potentially causes Logic to quit unexpectedly. - Changing the Stereo/Mono status of a channel in Universal Track mode now updates the track list on connected control surfaces. - The fifth Insert slot in Logic Express can now be accessed with the Logic Control. - The Controller Assignment window's Learn mode now decodes events that consist of one data byte (program change messages and channel pressure events) correctly. - The option "Show this Message Again" in the alert "Device X is assigned to MIDI Port Y of MIDI interface Z which no longer exists" is now valid during an entire session. - All control surfaces that feature a bar display now also work as expected when an editor is open. - Editing a parameter with a control surface that displays parameter names could quit Logic unexpectedly - when the edited parameter name contained a tab character. This
could happen when editing Sculpture's EQ Mid/Finestructure parameter, for example. The assignments for V-Select 31 and V-Select 32 on the Mackie C4 control now work as expected. - HUI, Logic Control, SAC-2k and Motormix can now enter text in modal dialogs that offer text input fields (e. g. - Incoming MIDI messages which match an assignment bound to a particular plugin/instrument (that is not inserted) are now forwarded to the sequencer engine. As an example: If you assign MIDI controller 7 to the Cutoff Frequency of the ES2, but the ES2 is not inserted on the current track, the controller is now used by the sequencer engine resulting in the track's Volume being changed. The Surround Parameter menu in the Control Surface Group parameters now offers the Center parameter. You can choose this parameter on the listed control surfaces in the following ways: - Logic Control: Pan/Surround parameter in Multi Channel view; in Pan/Surround Channel Strip view V-Pot 7 controls the Center Level parameter. - FW-1884: Pan/Surround Channel Strip view (entered with F7): Encoder 7 controls Center Level. Key Commands - Assigning key commands to global menu entries -- without the Command modifier -- no longer causes the menu title to flash while editing text or using the Caps Lock keyboard. [. . . ] - If the Freeze parameter is active, the delay buffer is not flushed on reset. - The Distortion Level parameter's scale has been enhanced to +/ 20 db, allowing cleaner delays. General Improvements - Opening a GarageBand song that is inside a folder with permissions set to Read Only no longer quits Logic unexpectedly. - Opening Logic by dragging an audio file onto the icon no longer quits Logic unexpectedly.
