  Store Channel Strip Configuration as User Default

In Logic Pro X version 10.4 the ability to save mixer channel strip configurations was added. There is a tool menu in the configuration dialog that enables the saving of settings as a default.

Some times I want a very detailed channel strip, other times not. I keep forgetting that the channel strip components that are visible are “attached” to a screenset. I can have different components visible in each. This is quite a nice feature.

Show/Hide Tempo Track Only — Logic Pro X keyboard command of the day

  Show/Hide Tempo Track Only

Sometimes we just want to see a single one of the ‘Global’ tracks. I don’t do much work where the Tempo track is something that I pay attention to.

I am reminded that I can ‘Show/Hide Marker Track Only’ which would certainly be useful to me in my work.

I need to remember that Global tracks can be different in different windows, and in different areas. Global track views are saved with screensets.

It is time for me to pay some serious attention to screensets and the kind of work I want to accomplish in each of them. Speed tools are a good thing.

Global tracks overview — Logic Pro X

Logic Pro includes a set of global tracks that you can use to control different aspects of the overall project. You can show global tracks in the Tracks area and in the time-based editors (including the Audio Track Editor, Piano Roll Editor, and Step Editor). When you show the global tracks, they appear below the ruler for that particular area.
