What made you start using Logic?
My mentor taught me to make beats on fl studio and mix vocals on protools. I like the way it looks and the plugins it came with is what made my decision.
i was using Korg Gadget on ipad,with good results,but it was time to get really serious music wise-so had to jump up to Logic Pro X 🎉
I was using audacity so far, mainly for dj edits, removing slower areas of tracks, adding some effects, blending some songs together etc. but, looks like Logic Pro has lot more and comes with some music and beats too.
After so many years using other equipment live and working with computers in cyber security, first time working with computer audio and behind the boards which usually i task that to my engineer or co-producer while I manage other parts of the project
As a owner I am learning to use systems I normally pay someone else to do.Currently attending school logic pro is my first daw other than FL ,reason and loopcloud 7 that i am learning fresh. When i saw other tutorials they expect you to know your way some around using a daw, opening a new project, setting the bpm, finding your sounds,and finding your instruments or vsts.
Thank you for this, so much useful information in such a short video. Bless you brother.
Thank you! And anytime!
Damn. This was THE best one I've seen and I've been watching these for days now. Everyone else is editing their videos to where they jump around super fast; I can't see where their mouse arrows are; the whole process of their videos is just too quick. I loved this, man. Well done. I'd love to see you just record several tracks. Guitar, drums, vocals, keys, whatever. I'm subscribing right now. Thanks again!
Thank you for the commment I’m glad this video was able to help. More on the way
Thank you sir. Sometimes we take things we know for granted. Been on Logic Pro now for 5 days and had to just say OK. STOP! Like Grayboy82 says at the top - I needed to start from scratch. Step 1.
You are a great teacher! This was the best intro video to Logic that I've seen. Appreciate your clear explanations and detailed walk through of the functions. Great job!
Thank you for watching!
Bro, thank you!! So helpful, your videos make CZcams a better place.
Thank you for watching
This has been the most helpful video on the subject for me. Thank you
Awesome to hear that!
Big ups! I searched and searched couldn’t find just this! Damn I appreciate you breaking It all the way down from the beginning ! U win !
Thank you for watching!
Do a video like this for beginners on how too sample old songs my parents grew up too and flip them too new rnb or hip hop songs
Hopefully I can do one soon 🤓🙏
@@Rmcbeatz. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 please DO ❤

Really good beginner video. Thanks!
Glad it can help!
This is awesome. Very helpful! Thank you.
Thanks for watching
This is super helpful! Thank you so much for this video. I just got my MacBook Pro and installed Logic. I have a midi keyboard as well but I only really know how to play chords haha. It’s a process, but I want to learn how to produce my own songs as well and this is so helpful for me!
That’s awesome! Glad to help
Thank you so much! This was a great intro.
Glad to know that!
You are a good teacher, it seems to come naturally for you. Very cool

Wow great job explaining 👏🏾👏🏾thank you
Thanks for watching
The best beginner tutorial video
Thank you so much 🥰 You are such a great teacher. I have learned a lot as a beginners. 👏🏾👏🏾💥❣️So Thanks
Awesome thanks for the feedback
@@Rmcbeatz. Your welcome 🤗
My kind of tutorial!! 👍 Thank you!
🙏
By far the nicest tut. Got me starting.
That’s awesome! Thank you
@@Rmcbeatz. Please where can I find the 808s 😃
very helpful im just now getting involved your awesome thank you
Awesome! Keep going
Great content brother
Thank you
Beautiful tutorial - totally user friendly and great for non-technical beginners. Appreciated there wasn’t insider jargon.
Awesome thanks for the feedback
This video was super helpful. Today is day one w/ my AKAI MPK midi and Logic Pro. Thanks, I was lost.
Awesome! Let me know how it goes 👍
Thank you so much for making a beginner video that is actually for beginners! I’ve been trying to record guitars but still have problems with even simple edits. For example, removing unwanted noise before I start playing, how do copy a section from a second take and pasting it into the first take, etc. You have a ton of videos. Did I miss a video that addresses simple edits?
I don’t have anything on that. But removing unwanted noises you simply either cut with the Scissors ✂️ T + I or grab the sample and remove it by dragging it in. Pasting is Highlight the section you want to copy then Command + C then go where you want to paste Command + V hope that helps
Thanks Raul. I started using FL but I thought of giving Logic Pro a try because I love Apple. After watching this video, it really inspired me to make a beat and to learn how to use Logic pro even more now. Thanks Rauls!
This is an Awesome comment! Glad I can help 🙏🙌
Thank you for sharing. You got me started and it's exciting because, I still have to learn a LOTTTT!!! Mainly wanted to know if there are automated tunes it can match the BPM and make the basic tone richer, even though I don't know much about music.
Awesome! And there is but you would have to find them. Are you referring to inside Logic?
Thank you so much… I am glad to start this journey with you
Awesome! Good luck
Thank you
Very nice introduction. I've had Logic Pro X for over a year and have never turned it on. It came with my Mac that I bought to do FCP video editing. I must say I'm very old school. Logic Pro looks like a program I used in the 80's, Cakewalk but on steroids. I am going to have a lot of fun with this.
That’s awesome! Enjoy
Bro this is super helpful 🙏🏽
Thanks for watching
Quite helpful. Thanks.
🙏
Geat video bro! thank you!
Thanks for watching!
THANK YOU!!!! 🎉
🙌
Thank you!
🙏
Great. Thank You
You’re welcome!
great video!
Thank you
this was great!!
this is so inspiring for me ❤❤
i’m just starting out in Recording Arts school, third month. & i’ve never made beats before but I have everything I need & this helped a lot!
I first ever opened Logic like 5 days ago & I was like omggggggg this looks Soooo confusing😭😂
I figured since i’m literally starting out from ScrAtCh it might be good to copy a song, just to learn the techniques First, & then starting creating my own. but I want to learn first like the techniques & the software, the keys, & how to actually use Logic first & not worry about making a beat on my own just at first..if that makes sense..
Butttt then I saw this video & im like waitttt I might be able to actually make my own beatttt
any other tips for new new beginners with making beats ??
i’m so excited tho❤🎉
Awesome comment! Good luck in your journey! And honestly there’s a lot to learn and talk about I might just keep this channel for beginner tips and tricks
Brother, this was a HUGE help to me! I’ve had Logic Pro for years along with enough gear (both hard and software) to fill a garage) and I can’t tell you how many tutorial videos and dvds I’ve watched. Seems they all want to immediately explore every offshoot feature or sub-menu of recording which only confuses or makes it more complicated.
I just want to see how to record a basic track, add another and keep going and THEN I’ll want to explore the other features. But your video gets Right. To. The. Point.
Question…
So I have DAW based software (Keyscape) as well as the Logic instruments but also have actual outboard musical instruments that I want to add like guitars, keyboards, etc. I also have v-drums , so my question is…if I initially start my first track using a software instrument then on subsequent tracks I want use an actual [line-in] instrument, does the previous software source need to still be available or activated in order to record along with/overdub tracks?
Awesome! I’m glad this video was able to help a bit! 🙏 and to your question. Not necessarily you can always mute the previous track by clicking the M and it’ll still record the new line in track then unmute to hear it together . Does this answer your question? 🤓
Thanks for this video, probably the best and easiest tutorial to follow to understand Logic Pro X. One more thing I know you slightly mentioned this at the end but what if I want to use my downloaded sounds from the net for example to use 'hi-hat, claps, 808' instruments. Would I have to insert the sounds through alchemy? Thanks for the tutorial once again I liked subbed and followed you on instagram
Thanks for watching glad it was helpful. And yes you can use alchemy or the quick sampler
Just installed it, never used any DAW before, seemed like i was in a spaceship control room, but you made it look easy. thanks
Subscribed from me
Awesome to hear! Thank you and eventually it’ll seem like 2nd nature
great video thanks
Thanks for watching!
Best video explaining. I just want to understand how to switch between tools
awesome!
Muy Buena data @RmcBeatz ,se agradece.🎶 Saludos desde Argentina! 🇦🇷
Gracias! 🙏
will you do a beginner guide for Logic Pro 11?
you saved me thank you!!
🙏
Could you do a video on Vocals? How to add reverb and plugin effects
Good idea
How can I start using the microphone to record external voice?
Learned from this video what you explained, so thanks for that!
So for that you would need either a usb mic or a xlr mic with an audio interface
@@Rmcbeatz. Got an Apollo Twin! I was told now that I need 48 volts for the microphone as its a condenser one!
@@MailonOfficialDR no you don’t need that you just need an xlr mic
nice. thanks
🙏 thanks for watching
Very informative and detailed, Which version of Logic are you running? Thank you
Thank you! And the latest version lol not sure
Fantastic instruction.
Nice and slow
.)
🙏
man, it took me 8 videos to find yours cause I am use to Fl, Protools and Serato that working on a mac was so different and working with logic I was not learning fast enough placing task together.
I’m glad you found it! Was it helpful?
@@Rmcbeatz. yeah very helpful cause what my professor assignment instructions were misunderstood after i hit a bad learning curve and had pieces of task vs a full flow of moves using logic. repetition is key to increase productivity using logic.
thanks a lot, man please make a course
Thanks for watching! And I just might
Go Lakers!!!
Let’s go!
Question for you man. I am trying to record from my Alesis strike pro kit which is an electric drum kit and i am connecting my MIDI usb to my usb c into my macbook. Would that be external midi or drummer option in the beginning?
That should connect right away but that’s external midi for sure
Can you do a tutorial on how to assign the mod wheel to your midi keyboard on logic.
Logic does it auto you should be able to use it once connected
I’m brand new to logic been using FL for years but I’m having trouble getting it to pitch bend with kontakt guitars
Mine does it automatically once I plug it in bro. Sorry I’m not sure what the issue is
Hi , Im so a beginner for this but I have a quotation, how do I add a Track to sing on ? sorry maybe is a dum quioation but please can you help me . thank you ..
and also thank you for this awesome video , thanks to you I have and idea in where to star.
No such thing as a dumb question. Go to the + sign and when you create a new track click audio instead of software
Thank you for the tutorial, super noob here...does anyone know why i don't see waveforms when i record my guitar? Im going through an audient interface and using an amp sim (neural DSP plugins). It records my guitar exactly how i want it to but its just a straight line with no audio waves.
Have you adjusted the gains on both ends?
@@Rmcbeatz. Yes I have, no change unfortunately. I've tried everything I can think of, it's really weird cause I've never seen anyone else have this problem.
How do you plug in your keyboard? What keyboard do you recommend?
You just hook it up to your laptop if it’s a midi controller if it has internal sounds you can use it as a midi controller but it gets more complex
When I drop a instrumental into the tack should I "change to tempo of track etc", asking for hiphop dude x
Yes you should change it to the exact tempo of the sample/loop
@@Rmcbeatz. thanks for the help. Also, do I change the beats sameple rate to the project sample rate or “change Audio file” thanks for the help
How can I transfer what I recorded on pro logic to Audacity ? And reverse ?
And how can I transfer what I recorded on pro logic in Dolby Atmos . Which it’s …..Format: Wav ( “ADMBWF")
Export audio files
@@Rmcbeatz. audio files ? Ok .
Thank you for this video. How do I upload my own sounds that I downloaded from Splice.
U can use the sampler or alchemy. I can do a video on this as well if needed
@@Rmcbeatz. yes please! Greatly appreciated. I’m an Ableton user but I wanted to learn another language, if you will and Logic has always caught my attention. Also, is the app pretty much the same thing just on a much smaller screen?
Yupp same thing
@@Rmcbeatz. it’s honestly why I won’t get the iPad lono
I am new to Logic Pro but I use Studio One.
Two things that I do not know how to do in Logic: #1 - When creating a song how do I chose which sample rate the song will be recorded at? #2 How do I add plugins to a track?
Thank you.
1 general settings - audio -sample rate 2. Left hand column where it says audio fx click on that you can add anything
Thank you.
I am a beginner and i understood this.
Awesome! So it helped?
What kind of computer what I need to get logic I got a MacBook 2015 would that one do it would you know I appreciate it ? 🙏🙏
Yes it would!
@@Rmcbeatz. thank you man 🫡🙏
What instrumental is at 2:10
how do you download your own sounds// what do you use? or do you create them your own. thanks !
So there’s stocks sounds already inside Logic do you mean those? There’s also third party plugins you can download
@@Rmcbeatz. yeah I’m curious about the third party plug ins
Do you have specific sounds in mind synths pianos strings?
Well my music ability is still awful but I understand how to use this most basically. thanks
Practice makes everything better. Keep going
Next: How to use my own sounds.
Then: Making and recording drum kits.
Then: Sampling into logic
Then: editing/quantizing/arranging.
Then: Using plugins.
“The beginner” most of the time (and market share wise)
is not the guy who doesn’t know what a daw is.
The logic beginner is the guy who’s been on Ableton/ FL all his life but can’t bend his mind around the learning curve of a new DAW.
Thats who needs you the most bro.
Like I bought logic a ways back.
$199? Sure why not.
But coming from another daw ,
My “logical steps” were not the same.
Logic 11 dropped yesterday.
So everybody has eyes on logic.
Most “beginner videos “ start with entire songs on the screen.
My boy says “they all start from the middle.”
Teaching is tough.
Most teachers don’t understand WHAT the viewer doesn’t understand.
(That’s in life period)
The first guy that makes a
“Got logic? Wanna put a modern song together? Do you normally start with drums? Keys?Samples?
Great.
Click this. Then that.
Here’s where you find your old pet sounds.
Here’s how you duplicate.
Intro verse hook.
When people don’t get it and they’re trying to learn they never say anything. They just move on.
Most people have a daw already.
The greatest FL teacher (imo) is busy works beats.
(I don’t have FL but if I did!)
He starts his videos with “here’s how you…”
No monologue. Straight to the point.
No long “first hear my beat and watch my cool graphics for 45 seconds”
Those are the best!
Sorta how you did this video.
(Actually pretty good)
People are impatient.
Computer world is fast.
Hello! Is there a command to move MIDI notes forwards and backwards without using the mouse pointer?
Yes highlight them and either command or opt with arrow key
When I highlight the notes I want to move and use the arrow keys, they don't move. That never happened to me with Ableton. I am using Logic pro 10.7.6 for less than a month. Do I have to activate something?
Already achieved! A small configuration detail. Thanks
#2 next
2nd tutorial?
@@Rmcbeatz. yep loved it broo
Nope, wrong vid again! Need a beginners guide to record ME actually playing drums, like old school
There’s some videos out there on that specifically, but you’ll have more luck on Reddit my man. Learning how to properly mic up drums and mix them is something you have to do hands on and figure out through trial and error. I’d recommend just getting an interface, and a few instruments mics and put them where you think they should go, then press record. That’s how I learned, and you’ll know what it’s “supposed” to sound like since you’re a drummer.. mic placement is kinda like painting, where every original artist has their own style that you can notice with every stroke. Just don’t take it too seriously and enjoy it, that’s all that matters in the long run
Question, (how do you slow down, or speed up, the metronome)?
Change the BPM in the top center. You can drag it to any number you want
I did everything what you did and the stuff is not the same smh so frustrated smh
What did you struggle with the most?
@@Rmcbeatz. so there’s no sound when I plug it to my keyboard computer I have a machine I just don’t have all my things right now, so I’m trying try out by its own Logic Pro on my computer
Thank you!
🙏
