I have been using VE Pro for a while in Logic with the 1 instance per instrument method, but am trying to create a large orchestral template and keep running into the same problem with Logic. I cannot find a way to conveniently control the volume, pan and send level without having to write automation for each.
I am using the Multiport layer, and have used a transformer to pass CC7 CC10 & CC91(reverb) to VE Pro and set those up in VE Pro to conrol the VE Pro Mixer. This works well, except that Logic is not sending MIDI chase unless automation is written. So, when I switch between projects, any tweaking of levels that was done in induvudal sessions without automation written will not be sent to VE Pro unless it was automated. Automating each of those values for every track is just not practical for me. And, even if I automated everything, while working, when I switch to another session it would be stuck with the values from the previous session unless I build in a regions with a MIDI reset on every track for every session. And, I dohave Logic MIDI Chase settings set to chase everything, but it just doesn't send the information from the MIDI channel strip.
So, my question to the community is if you are using Logic and VE Pro together, how do you control volume adjustments between sessions? And has anyone been able to get Logic to send MIDI CC chase commands with out the data being automated?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
