💪🏻👏🏻👍🏻🙏🏻 This is exactly what interests me at the moment: recording without metronome … So a big THANK YOU to the great master. As I just watched it on my iPad I will have to try it out in Logic on my Mac Mini M2 Pro. May I ask a question: do you also record melody on your iPad on the left hand side or do you use that as a remote gear? I saw the LEDs move when you played …
Thanks so much - I'm glad the video was helpful. I mostly use the iPad for Remote Control of Logic rather than for anything else but it's interesting you ask, as I'm starting to think about ways of integrating it more into my workflow. I'll keep you posted if anything evolves on that front.
Thank you - great video! What are the chances that this will work in a multitrack recording, i.e. recording several audio tracks at once in free tempo mode?
Hm, I'm not sure! That might be tricky for Logic, as there would be so many Transients to detect from which to try to map tempo. I think if you want to multitrack record, the better bet might be to just go ahead (with or without click) and then create a Tempo Map afterwards, in case you want to be able to overdub MIDI instruments or to create a click track from what's been recorded. If anyone knows better, please share their experiences here!
Another great and useful Video! You’re my favourite instructor! 🤟🏽 But could you please use the feature which you’ve used in your key commands video that shows us the key you’ve pressed on the keyboard for all your videos. That would be also very helpful to understand the shortcuts of the commands and to follow. Thanks in advance 🙏
Thanks so much. We can certainly look at doing that - thanks for the suggestion. Was there a particular key command in this video you'd like to know? I try to say them out loud as I'm using them but sometimes they slip right by! Let me know and I'll speak to Will about seeing if we can bake them into the videos.
@@jonobuchananmusic You’re teaching us to find the way. So even if i missed the key command I learned how to figure it out from you ;) Thanks again. Actually there is no problem to hear it but sometimes it’s difficult to understand the word since we don’t use it so often as not being a native speaker (it was semicolon for this case - and I doubt it was also the same case in the Guildhall video as well :) because I remember that i was looking for it and by that i learned again the word “semicolon” after years :) So it would be great if you can bake them into the videos ;) Ortaç
@@OorTouch Aha, that's definitely one of the most useful key commands - placing objects at the playhead. Great for spot effects and I use it a lot when sound designing or if I'm working to picture. Great, noted about baking them in - Will and I see what's possible.
Hello Jono - thanks so much for the video - can free time recording functionality be applied retrospectively? i.e. If I have recorded a midi piano part in free time without using the free time record button can iI still access and apply the four tempo options? i have a project recorded free time in logic 10.7.4 and wondered if I can update to 10.7.5 and use this feature for an older project.
Hi Andy. That is a great question. I'm afraid - I think - that the answer is no. I don't think a pre-10.7.5 project will let you enjoy that function, even if you update. If someone out there knows better, please let Andy (and me) know!
@@jonobuchananmusic thanks very much for getting back to me Jono - much appreciated. I suspected as much but I thought I’d ask anyway as there may have been some workaround that could make it happen. All best.
Always love the videos! I don’t know if this idea interests you, but I watched your DMD video and I wanted to ask if you think I can load a whole file such as a full instrumental track into it, and then chop it up into pads within DMD and then play the pads on Logic Remote in a similar style that people used to sample on an MPC? Do I need to run the instrumental track on a empty channel strip and then load DMD onto it? Or, do I have to chop the audio file how I would prefer to use it prior to getting the file loaded into the DMD. Silly small question I could probably answer with trial and error myself but I also just thought it would be cool to see you make a video demonstrating this idea 🎉
That IS a very interesting idea! It would definitely work if you bounced the track down into separate stems - high and low percussion, bass, synth lead etc - and then assigned each audio file to its own pad. It will probably work most effectively if your track is trigger-able in shorter chunks of 2 or 4 or 8 bars, so that you can trigger each one multiple times to re-arrange your track in real-time, rather than triggering a section which plays for a longer period with just one tap. Do experiment and see what works for you, but it does sound like a great way to be creative.
I’ve been wondering how to do this for so long! Thank you so much for sharing. Love your videos 🙂
Thanks so much! Glad this one unlocked some useful stuff.
Thank you very much, Jono, for this great video!
A pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks as always.

@@jonobuchananmusic that’s so much!
85.6137 = favorite. 😂 Great video!
I'll never use another tempo ever again... ; ) Thanks Edwin.
Thank you for your very detailed explanation and tips ！
You're most welcome!

Just watched it and thank you for explaining it perfectly with its issues, unlike other shill youtubers.
You’re welcome. Many thanks!
