I recently bought Pro Tools 10/11 after only using Logic 9. Madrona products aren't showing up in PT 10 or 11 for some reason, even on stereo instrument tracks. I redid the download of Aalto and that didn't fix it. (I couldn't remember if one has to choose au/rtas/aax formats when downloading - it didn't ask me when I just ran the installer.)

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Thanks Randy! Finally remembered to check back on this... : )

Hi All,

Loving the new Kaivo presets.

When using Kaivo in Logic 9, I have been getting the following messages:

"Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MDI. Sample rate [various 5 digits numbers have appeared here] recognizied. Check conflict between Logic Pro and external device."

Crackling and scratchy noises sometimes appear. Advice?

Thanks John D

That would explain why it doesn't happen sometimes. Problem is Kaivo sounds so good I wanted to use 5 separate instances of it on a track yesterday! : ) Thanks for the word on the news post ... it totally answered my lingering questions re RAM, voices, etc.

I think the acoustic bass patch is the best model I've heard, I don't think of it in terms of accuracy but rather sounding amazing. I wrote a review of Aalto and Kaivo on my blog a while back (http://johnhdavis.com/2014/03/09/the-core-is-getting-soft-10-madrona-labs/) but I don't think I had really grasped at the time just how much better Kaivo's engine is at rendering the sound of acoustic vibrations - and I say that as someone whose first instrument was the guitar. Kaivo is gonna be on my next record in a big way!

Thx for making it,

JD
