how many mix/hd cards you got?

7 cards in total, so DSP power shouldn't be an issue :)

Spent a few hours messing with it today and I got it working! Looks like I had an incompatible TDM plugin (MPEG Decoder bla bla). I moved the plugin out of my DAE Plug-Ins folder and no more crashes in Logic Pro 6!

Followed the instruction posted above (this one) and it worked fine with some changes for Logic 6. I'm planning on doing a write-up on the topic with screenshots so it's easier to understand what to do.

Thanks, guys! I'm finally in Logic TDM country! :D
Did you ever got working MPEG encoder on MIX in Protools?

If you read from the begginning this post acelera explains how to get to the 32 other channels on MIX with Logic. 2 Mixers in the environment, some DTDM some HTDM

Yeah, I followed the steps but something was odd with my install. Had to disable 64 track support, restart Logic, enable 64 track support and restart Logic again. Not sure what went wrong, but it's working now!

Insane amount of power in one DAW. Too bad my ProControl wont work with Logic. It's the only thing left.

Glad I was able to help out with some of it. That setup you have is peak Logic TDM performance. I would say it’s better than what I have achieved with PTHD and Logic 6/7 on PPC.

Universal Track Mode is 64 track support? At least on LE Universal Track mode meant more than 32 tracks AFAIK

I was wrong ...

From Logic 9 manual

Quote
Universal Track Mode checkbox: Activate to enable playback of stereo and mono regions
on a single track. Even-numbered audio channels are not regarded as the right channels
of the odd-numbered stereo audio channel to their left. Every audio channel has its
own Format button.

Please put up a video on youtube and link, I never had a single client on that setup and I never saw logic on PT hardware... it sounds like an amazing setup !

I have been stuck on LPX 10.4.8 and LPX 10.6.3 forever since anything newer is both laggy and buggy on my hardware :(

Architectures YouTube channel can be found here for those who are interested. Great content to say the least and thank you for helping me, Architecture :)

Protools5LEGuy: They are not the same thing. Universal Track Mode enables Logic to use stereo interleaved files and other neat stuff (stereo files on a stereo track instead of having two mono files on two mono tracks panned far left and right to get stereo). 64 channel mode (under the DAE part of audio settings) is specifically there to enable the use of 64 audio tracks on MIX and D24 hardware. If that checkbox is unchecked you only get 32 usable tracks, which is what I was stuck with initially.
