You'll notice that you don't hear Stylus when you play. Instantiate Stylus RMX onto Audio Instrument 1, select a groove, and select the channel 1 track. Ok, we now have 8 arrange tracks that correspond to our 8 MIDI channels, and thus our 8 parts in Stylus RMX. Use the "Create Track with Next Instrument" 7 times to create tracks for MIDI channels 2-8. Click-hold on the track instrument, and select Stylus RMX sub channel 1. Go back to your arrange window, select your "Audio Instrument 1" track, and create a new track.
Ok, we want to sort out how we use our new Multi Instrument in the arrange page. "Multi Instrument" objects in Logic let you use instruments on up to 16 MIDI channels at once.Ĭopy this Multi Instrument into your autoload song, so it's available whenever you start a new song. Click on boxes 1 through 8 to enable them (Stylus RMX is 8-part multitimbral, so we will only be using the first 8 channels of this Multi Instrument.) While we are here, uncheck the tick box next to the icon - we actually don't want to see this master object in the environment, we only want to see it's "sub channels" - each of the 16 boxes inside the multi instrument corresponds to the 16 possible MIDI channels. Select it, and call it "Stylus RMX Multi".
Select the New -> Multi Instrument option, and Logic will pop a new object on the screen. Open the environment window - I'm on my layer called "Instruments" here, but you can use any layer that makes sense to you.

This was originally designed to work with hardware multitimbral synths, but it works just as well with software instruments. So, what we do instead is to use Logic's "multi-instrument" environment object. What we really want to be able to do is to have a dedicated track for each MIDI channel that our multitimbral instrument supports. As long as the "MIDI Channel" parameter is set to "All", you can access the eight Stylus parts by changing the MIDI transmit channel on your keyboard between 1 and 8, but it's not a very good way of doing it. Normally, we'd put our virtual instrument (in this case, we're using Spectrasonic's Stylus RMX) on an audio instrument channel, and assign that audio instrument to a track in the arrange window so we can play it.

Often they can get one MIDI channel working, but then struggle to access parts on other channels.

Something that often comes up with new Logic users is how to best use multitimbral software synths in Logic.
