    1. Not knowing the difference between panning mono and stereo tracks.
    2. Not using fades.
    3. Setting recording levels too hot.
    4. Not using Bounce in Place or Freeze to conserve CPU.
    5. Not using sends, busses and auxes.

    I’m brand spankin’ new to Logic Pro X... & you are making my BRAIN HURT! Which is a GOOD THING! Man, there’s a LOT to LEARN about this stuff! Your instruction is both precise & concise! NO FLUFF! I expect to be spending some time BINGE Watching on your channel. Thanks for doing what you LOVE! I hope to be learning plenty here.

  • @CaptJackAubreyOfTheRoyalNavy

    Feels good that this was all old news to me. It should be, as I've been producing long enough, but you always get that sense of doubt when you see video titles like this. So this was validating for me, thanks.

  • @samuelhilllive
    @samuelhilllive Před 4 lety +6

    Good tutorial. Quick note, when you freeze a track, the next time you open the session, Logic Pro will not load the associated plugins for the frozen tracks. It will only load the temporary bounced version. When you unfreeze the track, it will load the plugins for the track at that moment.

    I haven't even gone through the first five minutes of this video and I can already discern that you're the guy I need to be tuned into...thanks for the great info and demonstration. I'm you're newest subscriber.
    Great tip regarding recording levels...I've always remembered from my early recording days years ago that 7 is your nominal, so hot tracks that are completely above this are definitely on their way into distortion if you don't watch/listen carefully...this has always saved me from pushing things into heavy distortion or clipping the signal. Just a rule of thumb.

    So FREAKING HELPFUL. Thank you so much. I'm currently learning Logic Pro X as needed specifically to record my own album on my home setup (a specific goal of mine for the year) and this has saved me so much time and trouble. Thank you.

    Wow... Thank you so much for this. I've been getting deep into logic for an orchestra project and you've explained all the cpu issues I've been having! Freeze and BIP will save me. I shed a little tear over the M1 Mac Mini I just bought to fix what was in fact a technique issue, but it'll still be great to have! Best channel I've seen for Logic Pro X. Easiest new sub ever. I appreciate your help. 👍

  • @garfieldadamsakaj.stemmons364

    been a Logic user since the Emagic days and while functionality obviously changes from update to update, I'd say I'm comfortable and familiar enough to figure things out as they change. but your "click zones" tip for the fade tool (also found the one for marquee when doing the search) just changed my whole life! new sub here, bud! THANK YOU!

    Holy crap, bro - while every point in this is valuable (and things I do all the time ), your explanation for busses is the best I've ever heard - I'm stealing the tap analogy and using it to explain to others. Thanks so much for these super-instructive clips. Even an old dog like me is learning new tricks (and making better tracks because of it).

    The phenomenon of recording hitting louder peaks after showing lower during level checking goes away once you turn off the metronome click. Somehow the metronome pushes the levels higher during recording.

    Thank you for your intelligence and wisdom. You will know that the 'phenomenon' of the solo'ed musician is simply that when solo'ed, they are already outside of context.Perhaps either ask the musician to "play louder than you ever have" or soundcheck them whilst performing within the track? Many thanks for your valuable instruction.

    A few things to mention: Logic has a setting to snap edits to zero crossings in the snap dropdown, I wish it was on by default. This prevents the pop by starting regions when they are at zero on the wave signal. But the fade does show some tlc ;) Also, regarding freezing tracks (essential) there is the pre fader mode in the inspector which only freezes the source and lets you continue to try out your effects. Good job! I just wanted to point out additions to what you were presenting. It’s such a great DAW. Thanks!

    You’re an excellent speaker. I don’t think you stumbled your words even once. Valid topics as well. One pet peeve of my own is keeping your project files clean and organized. This includes properly labeling and color coordinating your tracks and regions. Utilizing track stacks is also crucial. Achieve all of this without losing any time by creating templates, as well.

    I am new to Logic Pro 10. I was a previous Pro Tools user for Four years. When I was a student learning Pro tools the software was inexpensive.
    No longer a student the price went up significantly. I record music as a hobby and have Apple Mac mini, which I love. I am currently using the free trial version For 90 days. I only had Logic Pro X for a few days and I am totally sold? The virtual instruments are so close to the real sound.
    I will be a avid subscriber from now on.
