But copy the folder of samples to your new drive s and it stops working. Lots of long standing bugs have never been fixed in Logic, but with every update new bugs are introduced.
Good luck running a session relying on punching into a track. Zoom settings are having random weird problems. They are all excellent and capable DAWs. However, after using Logic Pro X, it is hard to migrate to any other music software. I find myself able to create music with relative ease that the other DAWs just are not capable of.
The MIDI capabilities alone are second to none in Logic and the ability to compose music in all styles makes it the best of the best. Another huge plus is the constant and free updates Apple provides… updates that are really upgrades in the quality and number of plug-ins and soft instruments built into the program.
Composing music or just recording a band is easy with this software. Whether you are into acoustic, jazz, electronica or rock, this software package is the best there is and gets updated constantly by Apple.
Apple takes this software very seriously and I commend them for their excellence. Version However, it does have on issue now with Flex Pitch and Flex Tim. Total disaster when only trying to use Flex Pitch and not edit the time.
When you turn off Flex and Follow, all of your time and pitch corrections disappear. I just want to use flex. Nothing can fix this. I have been looking in Apple Forums and trying to find a solution for about a week now. In the main display that shows the audio file waveform, place the pointer over a beat marker indicated by red lines you want to make the downbeat orange lines. A set of circular handles appears along the length of the beat marker.
Each handle shows a tag describing the function of that handle. Place the pointer over the beat marker and click the Set Downbeat handle. You can also move and scale beat markers using the handles in the main window. When editing a multitrack set in the Smart Tempo Editor, make sure to edit the downmix instead of one of the individual regions included in the multitrack set. Then, you can set the downbeat and perform other actions on the multitrack set. Use Adapt mode to have Logic analyze and follow the tempo of a recorded performance or audio file.
Use Automatic mode to let Logic Pro choose the mode, based on whether or not a tempo reference such as the metronome, or another region is in your project. When a tempo reference is present, the project tempo is maintained. When no musical tempo reference is present, the project tempo adapts to match the tempo of recorded or imported audio files.
Match the project tempo while recording To match the project tempo to your performance while recording, use Adapt mode. Create a new project and add audio tracks. The Tempo track opens so that you can see how the project tempo changes when recording, adding, or moving audio regions.
Before you start recording, you can set some automatic actions Logic Pro will perform just after you've recorded the tracks. For example, Logic Pro can automatically trim the beginning of the tracks up to the first downbeat. Start recording. Red lines in the region show detected tempo changes, and a tempo map appears in the Tempo track.
In the dialog that appears, you can choose to open the File Tempo Editor. With Smart Tempo Editor, you can preview the recording and make adjustments to the downbeat, tempo, and other tempo parameters. Create a mix that plays back at a predetermined tempo: Create a new empty project. Set the Snap pop-up menu to Smart. Double-click the tempo in the LCD, then enter the tempo you want for the mix.
This automatically turns Flex on for imported files, and uses Smart Tempo analysis to quantize the downbeats and beats to the grid at the current project tempo. Import the first audio file. Logic Pro analyzes the file, conforming the file to the project tempo you set.
To make any adjustments in the Smart Tempo Editor , click Show. Import the next audio file. The newly-imported file plays back at the project tempo. Create a mix at the tempo of the first song you imported: Create a new empty project. This automatically turns Flex on for imported files. Logic Pro analyzes the file, and creates a tempo map. To make any adjustments in the Smart Tempo Editor , click Show in the dialog. For example, you might need to set a new downbeat at the beginning of the file.
Set the Smart Tempo to Keep, then import the next song to the same track. The imported file plays back at the last tempo event of the first audio file.
Use Smart Tempo with multitrack recording For multitrack audio recordings, Smart Tempo analyzes the multitrack audio files together to create the tempo map. You can work with Smart Tempo and multitrack recordings three ways: You can create a multitrack recording and have Smart Tempo match the tempo while recording. You can import multiple audio files into a project and have Smart Tempo analyze them at the same time on import.
You can select audio regions in the Tracks area of a project and have Smart Tempo analyze them together. This automatically turns on Flex for imported files. Select and analyze multiple audio regions in the Tracks area If you didn't use Smart Tempo when creating a multitrack recording, you can analyze audio regions after you've recorded them.
