Here's my system:
Logic on a Mac sync'd to a PC via SMPTE. The SMPTE code is coming from a
track in Acid. The PC is running Acid -2.0. Midi is routed to Logic via a
Unitor midi interface.

If I upgrade to Acid 6.0 (which is due out in 3/06) will softsynths running
in Acid beat sync (lfo's and arps) to Logic? Or same question another way:
when I record midi tracks in Logic, which is sync'd to Acid via SMPTE, will
the lfo's and arps of softsynths running in Acid, be beat/tempo sync'd to
Logic?

Thanks again!
MR

What version of Logic? The current version can now do Acid-like looping
along with sequencing and soft synths. So can Garage Band.

Maybe you no longer need Acid? If so, your setup would be much simpler.

Cheers,

Thanks for the post Jamie.
Yeah, I've thought about this as a solution. Though I have a Mac, I'd
probably (pending info on the Intel-Mac pact) implement what you mentioned
on a PC. I'm just more familiar with the hardware. I've been thinking in
particular about going with Live. I've been playing with some local
electronic musicians lately, and both are much more computer based, in fact
one has his whole rig on a laptop.
