31 External Instrument
The External Instrument plug-in provides a simplified way
of handling an external MIDI sound source if you’re
feeding its audio output directly into your audio
interface.
This facility allows you to use one Arrange track for both MIDI recording and audio
mixing with effect plug-ins.
The External Instrument plug-in can be inserted in Audio Instrument channels (Mono/
Stereo > Logic > External) in place of a software instrument.
The plug-in features a MIDI Destination pull-down menu, that allows you to choose one
of the MIDI Instrument Objects in your Environment. The Input field allows you to select
one (or a pair of) audio inputs (connected to the audio output(s) of the external sound
source). Input Volume determines the incoming signal level.
Obviously, this facility is not as useful if the audio interface you are using with Logic is
not equipped with multiple physical inputs.
Additional things to bear in mind:
You might still have the corresponding Input Objects (Input 1, for example) in your
mixer. Any effects inserted into this Input channel are placed before the effects inserted
in the External Instrument channel (in the signal chain).
If using multitimbral MIDI sound sources, please be aware that each External
Instrument requires a separate audio output.
Freezing an External Instrument track cannot happen faster than realtime, as per any
Bounce operations where MIDI hardware is involved.
