Well,
here's a workaround for triggering (in-directly) from Midi in Logic,
-create an instrument track,
-draw in some midi notes.
-insert an instance of Klopfgeist (the click instrument) in the Instrument slot.
-at the top of the Klopfgeist window, set the "Trigger Mode" to "Mono".
-insert Slate Trigger in the first Effect plugin slot.
-do a little tweaking to each until you're getting the right level into Trigger, and are triggering the hits cleanly. Klopfgeist shouldn't need much adjustment, but you should certainly set the "Trigger Mode" at the top to "Mono".
Not ideal, but it works.

In Logic, can you normally route midi tracks to/from instruments that are not on that specific midi track anyways? Like can I take a midi track and route it to whatever instrument I want on an instrument track, or do I have to move the midi file/region over to that instrument track?
If it's the latter, then no wonder it doesn't work in Logic without a workaround!

I'm not sure, its not something that has ever cropped up in my workflow, but the point is that in the run-up to the release of Trigger we were assured that the Midi I/O features worked fine in Logic, now after the release we get the same vague allusions to it working fine, with no sign of the actual method.
frankly, it reads like a question being dodged.
We know that the features can only work as well as a Daw allows them to, but if one states that such a feature works fine during the ad-campaign, then it's not a surprise that people will use those re-assurances as a factor in their decision to buy.

Cool,
Anyway, on a positive note I'm really loving Trigger so far, the detection is uber-tight and I can see it saving me a lot of hassle in the future.
Here's to the Slate Crew!
Thanks for posting this midi workaround in Logic... however, we are almost done with an update that should make it even easier, and in Pro Tools as well.

Just used Trigger for the first time and it absolutely ate a kick track that was giving Drumtracker all kinds of hell. Pretty much perfect triggering once I set the 'Detail' knob right.
Only issue is that the recorded MIDI output lags by a few milliseconds in Cubase 5.5. I thought it may be my interface latency, but I had it running on a buffer of 32. Minor problem as the MIDI can just be nudged back after, and this particular kick didn't need phase accuracy. I manually phase align my samples anyway so in the grand scope of things it's not a huge issue whatsoever, but it would be great to find a way to circumvent this problem.
Cheers!

Woot, I might be able to get this just in time before the 30-day offer is over. Can't wait to use it on a project!

By the way, could some of you European guys tell me if you were charged the correct amount ($299 = 231,4€
or the slightly larger one stated on the site (Our price: $299.00 (€260.13))? Thanks!

I just got my bank accounts back in order now, and purchased trigger, but the d/l link isn't working? Anyone else have this problem?

Cubase 5.5 is released? I can't find this update anywhere
Sorry. I meant 5.1

You can, unless I'm misunderstanding what you're asking? Just select a WAV file in the instrument browser instead of the Trigger instrument file.
You couldn't do it in the demo but you can in the retail version, maybe you just haven't tried since you've purchased it?

I thought they were misaligned as well when I first looked at it since the midi didn't line up to the transient, but when you send that midi back into Trigger and bounce, it lines up perfectly.

I paid 116,68 via paypal for the 150$ Crossgrade from SSD EX version, which is correct (today its 116,37
