Integra-7 editor in Logic 9
20 May 2013, 07:06Has anybody succeeded to get this to run? The AU manager lists it as validated, but under 'all plug-ins' it does not appear under the third-party plugs or anywhere else. Any ideas?

20 May 2013, 15:14No luck here. Spent 1.5 hours last night by myself. Spent 2.0 hrs on the phone with sweetwater support. Still no luck. Are there extra setting you have to apply either to the integra 7 hardware, or to Logic 9?
Frustrated,

Re: Integra-7 editor in Logic 9
22 May 2013, 10:18Mmh, after getting it to work I can't help but being a bit disappointed- this seems to be almost the same editor you get on the iPad. Ok, you can tweak the virtual acoustic instruments, which you could not before. But the huge PCM synth block (after all it is a complete XV-5080 in there, with ALL the SRX boards!) ist still not editable. Having a huge library of XV-5080 sounds after ten years, I have made the effort to transcript some of my favorites on the Integra itself, which is tiresome with all these tiny menus, but it is doable. I was hoping for a more comfortable way to do so. Seems they gave away all that legacy PCM synth stuff as a goody additionally to the Integra synthesis, not something anybody intends to tweak or go into details. As far as I can see, even the fan made windows editor is able to do that.

23 May 2013, 13:31Boy oh boy Roland, talk about discombobulated and making my head hurt and I am no newbie.
Well, I got OS 1.20 installed on the Integra.
And the Editor is showing up in Logic in the channel strip, but have hit a dead end and it;s not changing anything on the Integra.
Are you guys using MIDI or USB for the the Editor ?
Do you have to use/install the Mac USB driver ? Do you then have to route the audio through USB to Logic/DAW like a plugin form the Integra ? I know there are advantages of this of course if yes, but I actually prefer to have my Integra going outside the box to my mixer for EQ and processing and just ant to edit from the mac for now.
Is the librarian a separate au/plugin ? or does it and the editor work from the same AU/Plugin ?
And any Logic environment setup help is appreciated, environment stuff in Logic always makes my brain hurt.
Thanks!!

23 May 2013, 16:28Hello James
> Are you guys using MIDI or USB for the the Editor ?
That doesn't matter. But you need to make the right settings in the Integra Editor. Press the button according to pic 1 attached so that the window according to pic 2 appears. Here you have to set the parameters "Input Device" and "Output Device" according to the way your Integra is connected to the computer on which Logic is running (in my case a USB-connection with the USB-driver installed). If your connection is computer --> classic MIDI interface --> Integra then you just set the parameters to the port of the MIDI interface on which the Integra is connected.
The librarian is a standalone application. Unfortunately it can't read data directly from the Integra (you need to import data by using a USB-stick) but only write. Not very user-friendly...
Good luck, Hobbit

Re: Integra-7 editor in Logic 9
23 May 2013, 17:39Thanks Hobbit. I got it working through Midi just now. Pretty cool. Are you playing the Integra from the same track as the editor is listed as plugin ? I had to keep a separate midi track open to play the Integra from my Midi controller, and a software instrument track for the editor.
I would like to figure out why I wasn't able to get USB working though, I ran the USB driver installer, and rebooted. But did not see Integra7 come up in the above editing screen that you posted pic of. DId you have to setup anything in the environment ?
Question (and I have not gotten this far of course): When running Integra 7 audio through the USB/Plugin connection does it show up directly in Logic so you can then add say audio plugins in Logic to it ?
All in all glad to have it working and hope I can get all the kinks ironed out.
Bummer on the librarian.

24 May 2013, 22:37Hello
Frustrated. The editor appears in logic. I press the preview button on the editor and I hear sound. I play the midi keyboard (MPK 61) and no sound is heard. I do see midi notes being activated in logic at the bottom. Any help would be appreciated .
Thank You

Re: Integra-7 editor in Logic 9
25 May 2013, 01:13This is a matter of the MIDI thru function of Logic. If you play your MIDI keyboard (assuming it's connected to Logic) then Logic transmits the signal to the track which is actually selected. So if you have your INTEGRA-7 editor plugin in a software instrument track you need to select one of the "external MIDI" tracks which are set to transmit MIDI to INTEGRA (channel corresponding to the part you preview in the editor) and NOT the software instrument track.

Re: Integra-7 editor in Logic 9
25 May 2013, 07:00So you always have to have two tracks open at the very least, one for the Editor (software inst.), and one for each Integra sound channel (using a multi instrumnet in the Environmnet for the Integra) correct ? Thats how I have set mine up here.
My editor is working through MIdi, but still not USB. Anyone have tips or things to check before a dreaded call to Roland tech service ? Could there be a step missing in Environment ? Roland really should have better instructions to get this working and have videos posted on youtube for it.
Has anyone got audio form the Integra to run from USB directory into Logic so you can use it like a plugin ?

Re: Integra-7 editor in Logic 9
28 May 2013, 04:40Ok, now this isn't an easy one, but here you are:Has anyone got audio from the Integra to run from USB directory into Logic so you can use it like a plugin ?
(1) On the INTEGRA-7: Menu / System / Setup / USB Driver to "VENDER (MIDI+AUDIO)".
(2) In Logic: Settings / Audio / Input Device to "INTEGRA-7 44.1kHz".
(3) Create a software instrument track.
(4) Insert the "External Intrument" Plug-in into the upper "I/O" Slot of the Instrument Channel Strip.
(5) In the Plug-in: Set "MIDI Destination" to INTEGRA-7 or your multi instrument or whatever sends MIDI signals to your I7.
(6) Set "Input" to "1-2" (= audio channels 1 and 2 of the I7).
That's it. Now MIDI signals of regions on the software instrument track are transmitted to the I7 and the audio signals are transmitted back to the same track resp. channel strip where you can apply all effect plug-ins of Logic (like reverb etc.).

Re: Integra-7 editor in Logic 9
29 May 2013, 19:28Please explain steps 5 and 6 in deeper detail please
1)how do I insert an external instrument. Do you mean create an external midi track? so i need two tracks?
2) is step 6 on the integer or in logic and where.
I have a Virus Ti snow and it works easily as a plug in. Why not integer 7? I do not use a usb audio interface in my setup. All in the box.
Pleae help and explain .
Thank you,

Re: Integra-7 editor in Logic 9
30 May 2013, 01:491) No, no external midi track, see step 3: Create a software instrument track. There you can insert a plug-in named "external instrument" into the "I/O" slot (see pic 1).
2) Steps 2-6 are in Logic. The external instrument plug-in needs to know (a) to what midi port it has to send its MIDI data (= "MIDI destination") and (b) at which input it has to expect the returning audio data (= "Input") (see pic 2). Since INTEGRA-7 offers only one stereo audio output channel in its USB connection, it's "1-2".
