RAPIDCOMPOSER HOW TO
RAPIDCOMPOSER PATCH

I have tried that in the past and it made my head explode trying to keep track of whether it was getting midi or not and was very easy to get into endless midi loop by clicking on buttons on the track header wrong way. The idea of putting rapid composer onto a track with some kind of auto demux, etc.

that would eliminate the possibility of an endless midi loop, but on the other hand, sometimes I *DO* need incoming midi from my midi controller to get to it for midi interaction.maybe I can patch that in the environment though, I will play with this some more. Seems like you are suggesting that I can get a mixer object to host the plugin.and it will do what it needs to do, dis-associated from any track, without receiving any midi coming into the sequencer. I guess I could probably just create a track and then reassign the track to something else to dis-associate the track from the mixer object.but yea.I get your point, I will play with that. At the moment this appears not doable in Logic.but any ideas will be welcomed. So maybe there is some other way to host a midi-out plugin somehow that I am missing? It needs to be such that the plugin will sync with host playback and such that the midi-out can be routed to all the other tracks/channels hosting actual soft synths and such for playback, without an endless midi loop issue as mentioned above. It shows up and seems ok at first, but when I hit play on logic, RapidComposer doesn't play with it. Somehow rapidcomposer doesn't quite work right in the AU-MFX slot.the plugin also responds to midi input when you're using it, so the problem is that when the IAC bus is looped around to the input of the sequencer again, the other instruments all get the midi, but so does RapidComposer again, creating an endless loop problem.This seems easy enough on the surface then, can use it as a AU-MFX and then in the instrument slot of that channel, use 'external instrument' to send the midi to an IAC bus, which will be looped back into Logic, and into the sequencer. This plugin will output multiple channels of midi, intended for different instruments, the midi out from it needs to be routed back around to the input to the sequencer, so that it can be directed to different tracks at the same time for playing back other soft synths that are hosted on other tracks/channels.

RAPIDCOMPOSER HOW TO

The problem to solve is how to route the midi. It is a VST, so i have to use a wrapper to get it to work in Logic, using BlueCatAudio's, patchwork, which will let me use it as either an AU instrument or AU-MFX midi fx.

This may involve some environment trickery or not, but I haven't been able to figure out a good way to do it thus far.

I am hoping some of you gurus can help me figure out the best way to handle a certain midi-out plugin.
