I booked a Logic studio for this evening and as promised imported my MIDI data from Cubase into Logic. The MIDI editing went really smoothly, but I still need to fine-tune the EQ on the voicings.
When it came to recording live electric guitar however, I ran into a few problems. After the usual troubleshooting - check guitar isn't faulty, check cable isn't faulty, check the D.I. is working, check the I/O and routing settings, etc - I called a technician. After 10 minutes of tinkering, we couldn't figure out the problem. This was towards the tail end of the session anyway, as the MIDI took up most of the time.
I am considering applying for an extension on this assignment, as this is the first time I've been able to book the studios in the MPC since the start of the semester - not to mention the equipment not working in this specific instance. I will be sure to ask for a studio adjacent to a live room so I can record the guitar in a Control Room that has been properly setup for recording live music.
I'll upload a few screengrabs in the next post.
