[TheRageRecords]

@mrmigtight thank you!! :D

[mrmigtight]

@TheRageRecords No!...Thank You lol

[TheRageRecords]

Hey i have a problem... I dont own a MIDI keyboard, so I basicly just hit the internal keyboard in logic with my mouse.. But when I start recording, nothings happening! I'm recording, the bar-indicator at the top gets red, but no green baar gets there like in 5:16 ... PLEASE HELP

[mrmigtight]

@TheRageRecords Put "caps lock" on and use the computer keyboard. :-)

[HubbardStew]

Thanks! Great video - just getting started in Logic - so much appreciated.

[edgroove7]

Very much appreciated Mr Mig !!

[FiSTFigHT09]

Thanks bro, that was more then worth the 7:59 seconds I spent watching it.

[biggylittle1234]

your a cool dude

[DaveTheBluesGuy]

god im getting soooo frustrated. my audio output never seems to fucking work with pro. can someone please help me before i delete this program

[LukaKartoziaTV]

where can we download all those sounds? i have a good lot of instruments in logic, but you have a ton, where can i get more??

[akarc24]

this program looks easy as fuck to use. everything is pretty much in your face

[mrmigtight]

@akarc24 It is "Logical" No Pun intended. lol.

[ThomGFX]

hey, I'm new to apple logic.

Do you know how to record software instrument using the key(typing)-board?

thanks

[latincmc13]

just lock the cap key and you should see a a keybord on you screen and just use you keys

[MetalCoreDrummer1]

@latincmc13 Hey thanks Man. I was trying to figure that out.

[mrmigtight]

@ThomGFX use the "caps lock" function

[EppstaProductions]

its really amazing what you can do with logic studio. i'm starting to become an avid user of the program. check out the music "DON'T LOOK BACK" that i composed using logic studio. i have others too.

[RikAmmo]

I need help using Audio Units. My work flow is basically dumping beats into logic and arrange into a song format i have no problem dong that. MY MAIN PROBLEM IS: I want to load my AU plugin ( mini moog , Arturia etc ) and play and record them to my beat/song. I can load them but they wont play unless i hit a key in piano roll but when i hit record it doesnt record the wave data, basically can someone tell me step by step to recoriding AU instruments please....?

[mindstormsabrewin]

I couldn't figure out how to separate the elements of a drum track or how to quantize an ENTIRE track before this. Thank you! I hope to become as proficient as you are in this powerful program. Music software is intimidating to newbs like me. You know how to put it plain english.... a great skill! Peace.

[leguitarist35]

Does this come with an interface?

[kalkanciii]

Yow Mig Show Us how to Remix A song

[cirex00]

When He holds the setting button at 3:52 he gets alot of instruments.. i dont have all of those .. i only have what was in garageband! :( Why??!!

[jdsongwriter]

I think that your videos are the best for Logic Pro on You tube. I still need to learn to record audio tracks. I imagine you have another video for that?

[niclashbg]

how to record audio-tracks? Just create a audiotrack, the choose input 1. Make sure the red recordingbutton is marked. Then u should have sound! hope that helped u. / The END Productions

[redimere]

Man you have no idea how helpful this video was. Exactly what I needed.

[leadsingerpos]

this is the best tutorial - leave it to someone who is great at what they do to explain it simply. A question - how about recording levels when using the loops - do you do that in the mixer? do you have to set them before you record?  thanks!

[mrbigyooo]

I have a Mac Book Pro with 4 gigs of ram and dual intel processors what do i need to complete a simple logic pro rig. Midi controller,audio interfaces etc. Helpppppppppppppppp.

[PRODUKTSOUND]

how did you film this tutorial? great job

[disownednofx]

At 3:20 he took a brake to masturbate Lol! Great tutorial thanks!

[cheese0chicken]

what screen recording program do you use?

[cheese0chicken]

Ok sorry just foud out, you use screen flow.

[mrmigtight]

I use alot of 3rd party fx/instruments. You dont make an external instrument. You have to make sure you have an audio unit version of the instrument or you need a vst to au wrapper. Also, PC vst's are not compatible with osx.

[vibestouch1]

@mrmigtight hey so how do i set up and use AU instruments???? i install a few on my mac but when i go into logic i cannot find them in the logic library...any help pls!!!!thanks men!!!!!!

[sweetjimmie]

Hey man, thanks for making these videos! They are very helpful. My question is, do you ever use non-apple virtual instruments like Arturia/Native Instruments/etc? I am trying to use my arturia analog in Logic and I can't figure it out. I know that you have to create an external midi track but I don't know where to go from there. Any help is much appreciated bro!

[soerowidjojo]

thnx man learned alot...when my logic studio 8 is done downloading im prepared to make some music

[lilseggy]

Hey just a quick question. I am using my midi keyboard to enter notes into logic. However there is like a second of silence at the start and end of my loop. Therefore when I command r and repeat the loops broken. Any idea how to fix this >

[mrmigtight]

You're going to have to move the first loop to the first beat of the bar after you trim the silence of the sample and then slice off the silence and then use the command r function. Where are the samples located that you are using? are they apple loops or are you triggering from the exs sampler?

[barendbos]

i really appreciate your effort!! You're really the best in logic tutorials. Could you do a tutorial of making a a capella?

[mrmigtight]

Thanks barendbos, Im not sure I understand the part about the acapella. An acapella is a vocal without music.

[barendbos]

yep i know, but there are musicprogrammes where you can make an acapella out of the orriginal song. I'm not sure if it's possible with Logic, but if you google 'making an acapella' you find a lot of instructions. I tought those were quite difficult without seeing the screen.., so maybe you can teach us?

[mrmigtight]

Do u mean extracting an acapella from someone else's song?Not a song you created in Logic?

[barendbos]

that's exactly what i mean :), i believe it's something with using the instrumental and the original version...

[mrmigtight]

barendbos, I'm not sure where you heard about that but it's not possible to make an acapella from a fully mixed record unless, and this is very rare, the vocal is recorded off center(left side or right) like a karaoke track.

[mrmigtight]

I have on occasion been forced to filter all of the low and mid frequencies out of a track to remix a record. You can hear the instruments poking through and you have to try to mix your new production over it. Its not a true acapella but its a last resort when there is no acapella.

[lilseggy]

hey, is there a part two to this vid?

[mrmigtight]

Hey Lilseggy...There will be ongoing parts to most of the videos. What kidn of things would you like me to cover?

[lilseggy]

[ooSASHAoo]

thanks alot man for this, ur videos are really helpful! keep em comming

[mrmigtight]
