Connecting Nord Rack 2X to Logic Pro X + UAD Apollo Quad
Hi
Just got myself the Nord Rack 2X and I must say even just listening to the sounds through headphones im already hooked.
I am probably just making a simple school boy error but this is my first completely analogue synth.
I have midi working from my usb keboard to the synth but I cant get the sound out in Logic. I connected audio cables to the A B C and D to the inputs 3-6 on my UAD Apollo. This is where im stuck. I though in Logic Pro X i would simply create a new Audio channel in Logic, set the input channel as number 3 (which is my mono out A on the Nord) and I would have sound. I press the notes on my midi keyboard and the Nord recognises it as the TRIG light flashes and if i plug headphones into the Nord I can hear it, but no signal in Logic.
Please help
Paul

Never mind, Its sorted now. I diddnt select INST in the UAD APOLLO it was on MIC..
On a side note , with the 3 other channels I have connected, how would I use all 4 at once?
Thanks!

Set slots A-D on the Nord to different midi channels and feed each channel with a separate midi sequence (hopefully related).

Right iv got as far as Playing the sounds in Logic so i create a new external midi, then i can play notes from the nord. I cant seem to bounce in place or export audio, iv been trying for 2 hours now, Iv even tried realtime exporting with that channel just solo'd. Nothing I do seems to work can someone please put me out my misery lol

It is not clear whether your problems are with Nord or Logic...sounds like a Logic issue to me.
