Nudge Region/Event Length Left by Beat

I don’t often find myself using beats and bars, but I am trying to do it more often with “songs” that I mix.

Make a region “shorter at the end” by a maximum of one beat.

Nudging right makes the region longer by a maximum of one beat.

I would probably be more inclined to set the “nudge value” to “Beat” and use the shift-option-arrow (right/left)

  ⇧⌥→ and ⇧⌥←

⇧ SHIFT – ⌃ CONTROL – ⌥ OPTION – ⌘ COMMAND ← → ↑ ↓

Hunting the Logic Pro X ‘Environment’

@StudioIntern1 #LogicProX

Today’s ‘command’ was “MIDI Environment”. I know so little. I have the chapter in the Logic Pro X User Manual.

“Environment overview
The Environment refers to the virtual environment of Logic Pro inside your computer. It provides a virtual view of your MIDI studio, giving you complete control over your MIDI setup, and includes the following objects.”

Excerpt From: Apple Inc. “Logic Pro X User Guide.” iBooks.

Off hunting for resources out there in the internet.

  MIDI Environment

Today’s command is actually an entire section. All of the commands in the MIDI Environment are listed here.

A tremendous amount of work can be accomplished here, in fact, it is the place where we can place plugins on the input channel for recording effects to the audio track.

This is another part of Logic Pro X that I have barely scratched the surface of. A chapter to read, maybe find some tutorials. If I wanted to “abuse my tools” this is where I would probably start.

Toggle writing Plug-in parameters Automation in Write Mode

Today I have learned that I know virtually nothing about using automation in Logic. Biggest thing I learned today is that

⌘⌃E command-control-E

opens the event list for the track. You can see the automation events in this list.

I will have to spend time reading the chapter on automation, and trying to figure out when/where I might actually use it,

It’s a vast subject. Kind of overwhelming.

“Automate mix and effects settings

Automation overview
Automation refers to recording, editing, and playing back the movements of faders, knobs, and switches. Using automation, you can create changes over time to volume, pan, and other settings. You can add automation to all track types.”
