    Dear Logic X Users, 

    It seems like the latest update of Logic Pro X (10.0.3) introduced a problem with importing environment layers. 

    When importing the VE PRO Multiport Layer Environment into a newly created Logic Pro Song, the cabling will be corrupted.

    If you do not have the possibility to roll back to a previous version of Logic Pro X (Time Machine pays off!!), your only option is to re-cable imported environment layers.

    Re-cabling:

    The Multi Instrument object called VEP 01 has to be cabled to the object Port 1, which in turn has to be cabled to the object All Ports, the Multi Instrument object called VEP 02 has to be cabled to the object Port 2, which in turn has to be cabled to the object All Ports...etc...

    We will contact Apple about this finding right away and hope that the Apple Team can fix this bug quickly.

    Best,

    Hi Paul & the rest of the world ,

    although I don't use the MULTIPORT MACRO ( which by the way is a brilliant idea ) , I am currently  in the situation to transfer my

    selfmade Monster Macros  that grew bigger and bigger  inside my templates since  Logic 4 .

    I have LOGIC X 10.0.3 installed on a Macpro but haven't switched to use it so far , rather doing some tests how to transfer

    Environments into this version (successfully).

    Here my (current) results how to successfully get Environments/MACRO Objects  from former Logic versions into LOGIC 10.0.3 :

    1. Rule :

    Don't use the function "Import Layer" at all.

    This will ruine most/all of  the original cabling , both in open Evironment Layers as well as (protected) MACRO Objects.

    2. Rule :

    Use copy & paste instead !

    a)

    To prepare an existing Environment Layer / MACRO Object for a proper transfer into LPX 10.0.3 please

    delete all cables that connect any Object / MACRO Object  with Objects in other Layers . (Very important !)

    Save this Logic (7/8/9) session now  with a new name,  ideally after unloading all AU-PlugIns in it.

    b)

    Now create an empty LOGIC 10.0.3 session. Name it, save it.

    c)

    Now open the (Logic7/8/9) session that contains the MACRO Object/Environment Layer

    you want to get into LPX . ( But don't close the LPX10.0.3  session you've just created.)

    Select the desired MACRO Object/ Environment Objects , now use the Menue  "Edit -> Copy" .

    d)

    Switch back to the empty LPX 10.0.3 session, create a new Environment Layer , name it.

    Use the Menue "Edit -> Paste" .

    Now the MACRO Object is in your session , and none of the cabling should be broken.

    Please Note (!): I found that it makes a difference to use the Menue approach of Copy&Paste,

    compared to the usual shortcuts approach. So please do it the way I've described it above.

    This is at least what I've found for the MACROS I copied , some of them containing more than

    40 objects cabled .

    Although I haven't tried this procedure with VSL's  MULTIPLE PORT MACRO myself , give it a try .

    Hope this helps some of you LPX users.

    Best
