Markers are handy things. I try to make it a point to create a marker track for a mix, and to place markers at points that stand out to me. During an initial listening pass I simply create a marker so I can return later. It is almost easy to create a marker and enter a bit of text to describe what is of interest, but attempting to type notes during the first listen can make me miss an important point.

Lots of ways to move around using markers. We can have different marker sets as well. I can make notes about a recording, mix it, and add a new marker set at each phase of the mix. A handy way to incorporate feedback in the project with a useful tool — a location in the project.

Navigating between markers is very easy on the X-Touch — press the MARKER button and use the FAST FWD or REWIND buttons.

Mackie Control Marker button overview — Control Surfaces Help:

Press the MARKER button to activate one of three marker modes: Small Marker mode, Large Marker mode, and Temporary Marker mode. You can use these modes to create or delete markers and jump to markers in your project.

I will be using markers to make notes as I work through “training” videos.

Remove Overlaps \ — Logic Pro X keyboard command of the day

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

  Remove Overlaps    \

Removing overlaps is essentially the same as the “Trim Region” commands. If there are no overlapping regions the command changes nothing.

Resize regions in the Tracks area — Logic Pro X:

Remove overlaps between regions

Select the overlapping regions, or select all regions on the track by clicking the track header.

Choose Edit > Trim > Remove Overlaps (or press \).

Where the selected regions overlap, the length of the left (earlier) region is reduced to remove the overlap.
