Control sends on faders in Logic Pro X — Apple Support

When you set the mixer to Sends on Faders, send level replaces channel volume on all instrument and audio channel strips with the same send. Sends on Faders can be a great way to quickly create a headphone mix.

I have been using an aggregate IO device on my Mac for years. I keep changing things around, and think I have a nice, workable solution.

I have my Behringer XR18 “first” for 18 outputs. That is followed by the USB outputs on my Behringer Monitor2USB (output 19-20). I can route a “cue” mix to that stereo pair and easily select it by changing the input button from source 1 to source 2. Great idea. I can also “demo” multiple mix buses if I want to.

I use Rogue Amoeba’s “Soundsource” to route application audio. I can direct output to a device, but I don’t have quite the control that I am looking for just yet. It’s probably time to break out Rogue Amoeba’s “Loopback” (think Soundflower or Dante VIA) to see if I can fine tune output targets to separate channels on the XR18 or Monitor2USB or internal speakers…lots of experiments to be had.

creating midi file from Logic’s metronome [SOLVED] — Logic Pro Help

Here’s the idiot-proof version for those who have never worked in environment before. I like having a separate individually adjustable click track:

This is a very handy little trick — make a MIDI recording of the click track.

Here’s the idiot-proof version for those who have never worked in environment before. I like having a separate individually adjustable click track:

1) Make sure tempo is as you wish it to be. Create a MIDI instrument track and choose instrument Utility->Klofgeist. Leave that track selected

2) From the Logic Main window, Open Environment window. WINDOW->OPEN MIDI ENVIRONMENT

2) At Upper Left Corner of Environment window , Pull down menu “Layer” with default value “Mixer” to choice “Clicks and Ports” ( Layer->Clicks and Ports)

3) Click and hold on the little arrow in (MIDI Click icon) and drag to (Sequencer Input) icon there is some confirmation I forgot but I accepted. A line should stay when you release, something like appears below.

4) Close Environment window

5) Make sure the click track you created is in Record mode and start recording. Boxes should appear, sent from the metronome to the track. Those notes comprise your click track.

Logic Pro X keyboard command of the day. #LogicProX @StudioIntern1

  Open in Audio File Editor    ⌃W

Opens the currently selected note/sample in the Audio File Editor. Not to be confused with the global command ‘Open in External Sample Editor ⇧W’ (I have this currently set to RX7) which opens the audio in a separate application.

Audio File Editor overview — Logic Pro X

Most day-to-day audio editing tasks are performed in the main window and Audio Track Editor. The Audio File Editor is useful for removing pops and clicks in audio material, setting accurate crossover points for looped playback, correcting phase cancellation errors, and more.

You can use the Audio File Editor to work with transient markers that indicate significant points—or transients—in an audio file. The audio on a track is analyzed for transients the first time you enable that track for Flex Time editing. Any detected transients in the file are marked.

Important: Most edits and functions performed in the Audio File Editor are destructive. This means the actual data of audio files is changed. Although you can undo edits and processing commands, you should work with copies of your audio files, rather than the originals.

Logic Pro X keyboard command of the day. #LogicProX @StudioIntern1

  Shift selected Zone(s)/Group(s) Right    ⌥→

In the EXS24 Sampler. Shifts to the right. I am not much of a sampler user, more of a sample player. When I first was exposed to samplers (Fairlight) they were ludicrously expensive and severely limited in their capacity. I thought it much better to get people to play real instruments 😉 Silly me.

Graphically edit EXS24 mkII zones and groups — Logic Pro X

You are not limited to editing zones and groups in the Parameters area. You can also graphically edit a number of zone and group parameters in the Zones/Groups Display area above the keyboard. If you want to edit the audio file of a zone, see Edit samples in the Logic Pro X Audio File Editor.

Expressive Sound Design With EXS24

EXS24 is a fully fledged virtual sampler that allows you to not only load and play extensive libraries of sounds, but to also edit them and use them as starting points for further sonic manipulation. All the controllers and modifiers you would expect to find on an advanced synthesizer are included here and they’re all available from the Editor view of the plug-in window, with the added benefit of a very flexible modulation matrix allowing for all sorts of control signal source routing to various parameters. A flexible Filter section with six switchable modes of operation (high-pass, band-pass and four types of low-pass) provides all the tone-shaping options desired, while the amplifier section is ‘hard-wired’ to velocity (although constant values are also possible via limitation of the range control). Three LFOs and two Envelopes can be freely assigned to any generator or modifier parameter — as well as to each other — using the available modulation matrix, while the Via field allows for assignment of a further modulation source (typically a MIDI controller number, although control signal sources are an option too). The routing possibilities are endless, as are the ways in which a static source sample can be modulated dynamically.
