Recording some guitars on my new track called 'Medvind'.Working in Logic Pro X for this one, somehow I always choose Logic when I know I'm going to record gu. How can I use Native Instruments Guitar Rig Plug In with Logic X and record all automation from the RigKontrol as if i were playing in stand alone mode? More Less MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2009), iOS 5.1.1. You should be recording your guitar (which is a mono signal) to a mono audio track. Create a mono track, or select your stereo track and click its format button at the bottom of the meter to toggle it from stereo to mono (two interleaved circles = stereo, one single circle = mono).
When recording audio or playing a software instrument in Logic Pro, you might experience a slight delay between playing or singing a note and when you hear the sound from your speakers or headphones. This delay is called input monitoring latency. A variety of factors contribute to input monitoring latency, including:
- The input and output (I/O) buffer size setting in Logic Pro
- The analog-to-digital (A/D) and digital-to-analog (D/A) conversion processes
- Any audio interface software that you're using
- The sample rate of your project
- Plug-ins inserted on tracks in your project
Though you can’t change the amount of input monitoring latency produced by the A/D and D/A conversion processes or by your audio interface’s software, you can set the sample rate of your project and adjust the I/O buffer size to minimize latency. You can also manage latency caused by plug-ins using Low Latency Mode while recording.
Set the sample rate of your project
Set the sample rate for your project when you first create it. Higher sample rates result in less input monitoring latency. However, projects with higher sample rates create larger audio files, which can increase the load on the processor and the disk of your Mac. Plug-ins also require more processing power at higher sample rates.

Adjust the I/O buffer size
The I/O buffers temporarily store some of the incoming and outgoing audio data to protect against audible dropouts, clicks, or pops. You can change the I/O buffer size at any time to minimize latency.
In Logic Pro, smaller I/O buffer sizes reduce input monitoring latency. However, smaller buffer sizes require more processing power, which can cause system overload alerts. Larger I/O buffer sizes require less processing power, but increase latency.
When recording, set the I/O buffer to the lowest setting. If you encounter system overload alerts, increase the I/O buffer size to the next setting. Projects with many tracks or a lot of software instruments require higher I/O buffer sizes, depending on the amount or RAM and the speed of the processor in your Mac.
Here's how to change the I/O buffer size:
Amp Designer Logic Pro X
- Choose Logic Pro > Preferences, then click Audio.
- Click Devices.
- Choose the buffer size from the I/O Buffer Size pop-up menu.
Logic Pro shows the resulting latency under the I/O Buffer Size menu. Roundtrip latency is the total amount of input monitoring latency you'll experience from audio input to audio output.
Turn Low Latency Mode on to manage plug-in latency
Certain plug-ins can contribute to input monitoring latency, particularly dynamics plug-ins with look-ahead functions. If you're using these kinds of plug-ins in a project, you can minimize the latency they produce while recording using Low Latency Mode.
Low Latency Mode bypasses plug-ins as needed, so the amount of latency doesn't exceed the Limit setting in the Plug-in Latency section of the General Audio preferences of Logic Pro. Low latency mode is especially useful when you want to record a software instrument in a project that includes latency-inducing plug-ins.
To turn Low Latency Mode on, choose Record > Low Latency Mode.
Nobody else out there is getting this?
I JUST bought and installed Logic Pro X and loaded a song I had recorded using Garageband v10 and all of the audio tracks (that were totally fine in garageband) are all crackling all the way through the song on every track..... it doesn't make sense to me as it was already recorded without issue over in Garageband.... *Kanye shrug*
I'm going to try recording fresh audio to see if I still get it *please, dear god, don't let there be an issue* but I was curious if you, Boppa1, or anyone else whose had this issue has yet to figure out a fix to it?
Also, I was wondering if people out there could recommend some decent I/O Buffering and sample rates for a 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 Macbook Pro with 16GB RAM?
As always, thanks everybody!
