  Go to Last Locate Position


 

Moving around a project efficiently is they key to mastering Logic Pro X. Positioning the playhead, getting the right workspace (screenset), focusing attention where you want it and when you want it.

Use transport key commands — Logic Pro X:

Go to Last Locate Position: Moves the playhead to the last position reached with a positioning command, or direct positioning of the playhead using the mouse or ruler.

Use transport shortcut menus — Logic Pro X:

Jump Between Marquee and Project Start: Moves the playhead back and forth between the marquee start position and the project start position, when Logic Pro is stopped. Applies only if there is an active marquee selection.

Really?

Create, recall, and switch screensets — Logic Pro X:

You can also switch a screenset automatically during playback using meta events.

I wonder if this is project-wide or track specific? Let’s find out…First region of the project. Possibly different behavior if working in a folder stack. No, it moves the playhead to the beginning of the first region in the project.

Smart Tempo Editor.

Work in the Smart Tempo Editor — Logic Pro X:

In the Smart Tempo Editor, you can view and edit Smart Tempo analysis results including beat markers and other tempo information. After you record an audio or MIDI region or import a file using Smart Tempo, you can refine the tempo analysis and correct any tempo detection errors to define the musical intent more accurately. When working in Adapt mode, tempo and time signature changes are transferred to the project tempo and time signature tracks.

Welcome to the Score Editor. I haven’t written music notation for at least 15 years. Back when I was doing serious music 😉 I used Finale. The “Orchestra Nova” experience would have been so much more entertaining using modern day Logic Pro X as opposed to Finale and Opcode Studio Vision. Light years. Parsecs even.

Notation overview — Logic Pro X:

Notation overview

You can view MIDI regions in software instrument (and external MIDI instrument) tracks as music notation in the Score Editor. Notes and other musical events are displayed as standard notation, along with common symbols such as time and key signature, bar lines, and clef signs. You can add and edit notes, add sustain pedal markings and other symbols, and print the score.
