Hi guys. 
Hope you all are doing well. 
I've been busy with some other things and didn't get the chance to open Logic for about 2 or 3 weeks. 
I'm new to Logic and Logic Magician. I only know a few Magician key commands and were impressed. 
Like I say ... I still wanted to listen through all the tutorials etc. 
I'm on a free trial with Keyboard Mistro. 
Last night, when I opened Logic, no matter what I did, opened a previous project or creating a new project, the function keys didn't want to work at all. 
And I couldn't remember the shortcut to activate or deactivate LM. 
I looked in Keyboard Mistro, and it shows that I still have 23 days left in my trial. 
Can anyone help please? I even tried to reinstalled LM. 

So by the way, I haven't updated my OS or Logic yet. 

Thanks
Dewald

Hello:
did you try using CTRL+Scape to activate Lm and see if it is working or not?
also, do you have the LM documentation?
it is very detailed,
but jsut try to use CTRL+scape first and see what is happening.

Hello. 
Did you try control + escape to turn on logic magician? 
Some times, when you have run Logic Pro, you need to run keyboard maestro for the macros to work properly. 

Regards.
Nektarios.

Hi Dewald

First, to be sure keyboard maestro engine is always running in background, go to keyboard maestro, hit Command + Comma to open preferences, and under general check the option: Launch engine at login.

On LM specifficly, Control Escape toggles it on/off, and for reason why F keys didn’t work, you either didn’t have keyboard maestro engine running at all, or you had VoiceOver quick nav on. Most keys won’t work if voiceover’s quick nav is on, simply because VoiceOver has higher system priority.

Thanks. Fixed it. The checkbox in Keyboard Mistro wasn't checked. 
Somehow I can't remember that step being part of the setup that Steve explained but anyway. And I was able to work on a project without any problem tonight. 
Is there a list of Logic Magician key commands? 

Thanks
Dewald

Well, it wasn’t, as it’s not LM related thing technically speaking. 
You can run any keyboard maestro macros without doing that, but you’d have to open keyboard maestro at least once after every system boot.
Keyboard maestro welcome window even tells you that.

For LM documentation, follow this link:
