    In plugin manager - when you create a folder, you don't need to add the dash to put it on top - you can literally drag the folder to whatever place on the list you want it to be :)

      @krzysztof.kessler 6 месяцев назад

      no worries :) also, when you look at the logic original folders - there's another trick - if you create a sub folder, let's say "mastering plugins" and then you create another folder and name it "mastering plugins:compressors" and "mastering plugins:eq" - it will put these 2 folders inside the main "mastering plugins" folder. Just make sure to not have a space between the colon. it need's to be like this "name:1name2".@@CharlesCleyn

      the dash still puts it closer to the top which then makes it easier to move higher or lower in the dash section of the list/menu. having it appear at the bottom and then having to drag it upward can be/is usually really annoying bc drop down menus r pretty particular about movement and can disappear or do other time wasting shit and the longer the list/menu is the more room for error and time wasting and me cussing at my computer. :) dash for the win. easier to move afterward.

    One important thing about freezing tracks: you want the BLUE freeze icon, not the GREEN one. The blue freeze icon freezes your plugins. The green one does not. If it's coming up as the green freeze icon, what you need to do is go to the open up the Inspector window (the "i" icon near the top left) and then select the Track dropdown. There you will see Freeze Mode. You want to select "Pre-Fader" as opposed to "Source Only."
    Personally, I don't know why the "Source Only" option even exists. It's useless. I also don't know why it randomly pops up for me on certain tracks I try to freeze. But at least I know the solution now so I'm not saving tracks and wondering why I'm not reducing CPU.

  • @MarkBowenPiano
    @MarkBowenPiano 6 месяцев назад +2

    I'm maybe a bit confused here but I didn't quite follow your freezing of the track? You created a copy that you then bounced to audio and then you froze the original track?
    All you need to do is freeze the software instrument track. That then creates freeze files (audio files) which then does exactly what you did by duplicating the track and bouncing to audio.
    By just freezing the software track you only have one button to press to freeze and if you want to go back to it to edit again you just unfreeze it.
    By doing it your way I'm fairly certain that you'll have the new track you created with the bounced audio on it and then you've possibly created more audio by then freezing the original track. That may not be true I'm not 100% positive on that because you had the track muted but when you froze the track it still had to go through the procedure of checking the entire length of the song the first time you hit play.
    Once you'd got that bounced audio on the second track though you could just disable the original track but again I believe that's defeating the purpose of how to use the freeze function on a software instrument track.
    At least that's the way I've always done it. I may be missing something there though?

  • @ronallen2458
    @ronallen2458 6 месяцев назад +11

    Two time savers for your time savers: to duplicate a track, including content, hold option and drag the track down. Instead of freezing the duplicated and bounced instrument track, just enable on/off, turn it off and hide it. No additional bouncing needed to freeze it. Turning it off turns off the instrument and FX. I really appreciate your fade shortcut. I always forget that one!

    • @Gibboncore

    Have been using Logic since its inception and before that many other systems as started out on the very first real mainstream systems such as Atari Notator etc
    Logic is totally fantastic in what it does and all its features.
    For zooming though I use the Magic Mouse (no idea why so many people don't like them as I could never use anything different personally) and you can just scroll (with modifier keys) to zoom in exactly where you want. Absolutely the fastest way to zoom.

  • @26theband
    @26theband 6 месяцев назад +2

    Not sure why you’re bouncing tracks, duplicating, then freezing them…that’s literally what the freeze feature is for….its to “bounce the tracks in place” temporarily to conserve CPU until you want to edit them again. It’s literally why the feature exists and it was actually in Logic before ProTools. Also if you want to turn off anything to conserve processing power there is a power button icon that can be added to you track sidebar that if turned off turns off all processing on that track.

    Hi, I have been mega impressed with your many tutorials, but now am a bit frustrated. Either you are using a different version to me, (Iam on the latest) or I have some rogue setting somewhere. Control+option does not do what yours does, but option on it's own does. (Incidentally why is it called option when on every Mac keyboard I have had it is called 'alt'?) Also the little cross icon to fade does not appear in my version no matter how delicately I hover. Frustrating ... but thanks for the rest of it.

    I use a quicker way for the first one.. just swipe over what you want to see with your normal pointer curser and the tap ‘Z’ and it will zoom the selected.. getting back to the ‘birds eye’.. just normal pointer click anywhere on the background and tap ‘Z’ again and it zooms out to everything.. much quicker and easier. Also none of these shortcuts are either hidden or secret.. they are all in the shortcut menu which is fully customisable and most of them are also in the dropdown menus next to their named function. clickbait alert..

    I’ve worked with logic pro since it was owned by . E magic in 1986. Many changes and new features have been added since Apple took over the company but what drives me crazy is that nothing has been done to improve the notation software part. I understand most kids can’t read music so Apple thinks it’s not worth improving that part of the software. I mean just basic things like if you have to repeat signs that logic would play that repeat just like it is written on paper. I doubt logic will ever implement these changes.

    Instead of freezing muting and hiding a midi track I'd turn it off. There is a shortcut to unmute every track and if you accidentally use it (like if you accidentally hold command when clicking M to unmute a track, thus unmuting ALL) you will unmute all muted hidden tracks and you will now have unexplainable sound coming in (because yes, you may forget you had hidden track after a while)

    OMG Charles! This was fantastic. I've struggled getting used to Logic after years on another DAW. So many other DAWs allow you to double-click to reset a value back to zero. It has been so frustrating until now! Opt+click! Many of your tips are super helpful for me!
    One to add that I picked up somewhere is for A/B-ing takes in separate tracks. In some other DAWs, it was fairly east to A/B regions from different tracks. I learned that if you click solo on one (or mute) and then alt+click the second one, it will toggle back and forth between the two you are clicking.
    Thanks so much for this video! It has been such a time-saver!

Was definitely a very quick way to change tools back in the day.

    That was great - the plugin-organization one is like Feature Reveal of the Year! (ha). Ditto the 'different comp from the same set of takes' one - just really good. Giving back some tiny bit, I would contribute that when making a comp from multiple takes, is there's a section that you've highlighted from say, Take 1 (the rest being from say, Take 2 etc.), you can click on that corresponding area of the region in other takes and it will auto-select that for exactly that part ,if hat makes sense (i.e., doing my own vocals it's often one or two phrases I'm singing iffily and only need to A/B those to the rest of the comp, not necessarily create a whole new comp (although again, that tip was great! Why did I never ask what those little letters/numbers meant?!).

  • @StaminaMC
    @StaminaMC 6 месяцев назад

    I get the zoom in/out with just an 'option-click', no need for 'control' as well? I only learned it like _last week_ on someone else's video, so it's not a preference I'd ever set for myself. Multiple vocal comps I've never seen anywhere else though, and that I shall carry forward with gratitude. A space works just as well as a dash for folders within plugin manager, and arguably looks a bit 'cleaner'. Scratching my head at the penultimate tip as of 14:59 onwards, though. To me there are needless steps to that workflow? Freezing is precisely for those moments when CPU usage could be lower but it's not quite time to commit/bounce, and has the benefit of keeping your arrangement looking the way it always has… therefore to bounce _as well as_ freeze, let alone copy an entire channel that's deleted as soon as you Bounce In Place because you'd chosen to "replace track" instead of "new track" from the options (which would obviate the copying step)… I don't geddit. Should any MIDI or plugin parameters later need changing the track must be unfrozen anyway but that bounce is now antiquated/useless. I'm just not seeing the upside, from this seat…? 🤔

    • @CharlesCleyn
      @CharlesCleyn  6 месяцев назад

      In a perfect world I think commuting and moving on is the best option but sometimes I’m not sold on the midi performance or sound so I freeze. I make the copy and bounce so I can have better cpu and still get the flex to mix on the go. Make sense?

    • @StaminaMC
      @StaminaMC 6 месяцев назад

      Mix on the go I guess I get, but still seems kinda like additional faff for a hypothetical. Switching that setting before you Bounce In Place saves you a step (copying a channel), and since you're not using the frozen audio at all simply disable the entire channel strip and hide it once you've BIP, saving another step waiting for Freeze to render audio you'll never play with?

      you're correct but "alt" or "option" will only work when you're on an empty part of the tracks area...

      Option slide up/down and left/right is the fastest way by a mile but it’s only available to people that use a Magic Mouse or track pad

      And if you’re using a Magic Mouse or track pad, you don’t need to be over an empty space, works anywhere in the edit window

    Hi, I keep struggling with getting my vocals to sound professional. I just use a stage mic instead of a condenser mic, but is it worth the upgrade? And which plugins should I use?

    • @PeterNiallLancaster
      @PeterNiallLancaster 6 месяцев назад

      Many pro recordings have been done using stage mics like the Shure SM58 and SM57, although dynamic mics like the Shure SM7B and ElectroVoice RE20 are more commonly used, but some singers prefer hand held mics. I wouldn't suggest using a condenser mic unless you have an acoustically treated space to record in, otherwise you'll pick up the sound of the room. In my experience the best vocalists (and musicians) I have worked with require the least work to get their vocals (or instruments) to sound good, so it may be your mixing rather than recording that is the issue. As far as plugins go eq, compression and reverb may be all you need. The stock Logic ones are good and there are free plugins out there that are just as good or better. Learning to use them well takes a bit of practice. Start by seeing if you can get vocals to sound good in a sparse mix, maybe just vocals and piano or guitar. The more space the vocals have the less you should have to do to them to make them work well in the mix.

    • @CharlesCleyn
      @CharlesCleyn  6 месяцев назад

      Peters got some great points there. I’d also suggest spending the time on singing the best you can. I don’t know if this is helpful since I can’t hear your vocal right now but a big part of having a great vocal sound professional is having a great source. Warm up, sing in the right key, practice. It’s not everything but it helps A LOT.

    Years ago I managed to create really nice tracks with GarageBand. Eventually i bought a copy of Logic.. what a shock. I naively believed Logic would "just be an even better GarageBand"; assumptions can be so dangerous. I've never gotten the hang of Logic like I could fly around GarageBand. The learning curve is so steep.. I would argue it is just too steep.
