The Library icon, far left, looks different to me. And yes, so does the Inspector icon next to it - but I was mostly referring to the Library icon.

Interestingly, Apple didn't update *all* their Logic marketing images on the Logic page on their site, they just made new ones where they needed to feature the new stuff. The new Library browser icon is the giveaway here... ☺️👍

Indeed, I didn't mean the request was unreasonable. 👍 I don't think file formats are the issue though - almost everywhere will take high quality files, compressed or not. You can't really go wrong with a WAV file these days! I thought it was more about loudness specs and so forth... By platforms I thought you meant delivery targets (eg, Spotify), rather than file formats...

It's probably quite difficult to establish a set of output presets for platforms at a moment in time, because platforms often change their requirements over time. It's really on the engineer to make a mix they're happy with, and then determine the delivery requirements of the services they are delivering to, and output the required versions - that's really part of the mastering job, to understand, and deliver for, the required targets.

And that’s just at home… 😛

Have you tried Logic -> Control Surfaces -> Bypass All Control Surfaces? Also, what if you disconnect all MIDI devices - do you still get general problems? It sounds like something is stealing your note offs, possibly controller assignments, so the above check will rule this out or not.

Set them up in your starting template, and now you have those set as you want in every project you make.

Sure, but it's not quite the same thing - this requires you to manually first make a corresponding track in the tracks window. What @CwC Studio is suggesting is a checkbox to simply show or hide that track in the arrange window, without having to manually create them first (ie, just a smoother workflow type thing, with Logic taking care of showing or hiding the track in the arrange automatically accordingly, without having to manually add each channel to the arrange first).

I answered this in the other thread you also posted this:

Paying for what? Logic? Just log into the App Store on your new Mac with the account you purchased Logic with, and download Logic. You've already bought it, so you can always re-download it whenever you want.

A sine wave gets it's peaks clipped, and the more you turn it up, the more it turns into a square wave - the smooth single harmonic of a sine wave gets additional harmonics as the waveform gets sharper. Yes, dbFS is a term for digital audio levels, relative to the 0dB maximum point a fixed-point number can be represented in a fixed-point audio file. Yes, but you can only have +3dBFS if the audio signal can be represented by the numbers - ie, if you had a 24-bit wave file, there is no signal in that that can be at +3dBFS, because the maximum level that can be represented is 0dBFS, period. However, in Logic's mixer, before it's output to the world where it's converted back into fixed-point audio, audio signals are represented as 32- or 64-bit floating numbers, which *can* go higher than 0dBFS. A lot higher in fact - you can turn signals up to, say, +1500dBFS, and they won't get distorted (as long as you turn them back down before you hit the fixed point output, of course.)

I know, but Logic differs to other DAWs in that tracks do not have a 1:1 relationship with a mixer channel, and you can reassign them and so on. There are some complexities that other DAWs don't have to deal with - they are simpler in this manner. I'm less day-to-day familiar with PT - are the mixer channels completely independent of the main tracks area in PT? Ok, so for you, you'd be happy to have the mixer continue the reflect the track layout, just that you can reorder track tracks by dragging mixer channel strips, rather than having them independent of the tracks area? I'm just curious as to who wants a mixer layout completely independent from the track area, versus who would feel just the ability to reorder from the mixer area is good enough...

Very few DAWs do, because MIDI clock just isn't solid enough, or high resolution enough in terms of timing to run audio sample rate off it. They tried it in the past to freewheel across the timing differences, but it's just too wonky to slave all your audio to MIDI clock, which varies in timing due to the activity on the MIDI port. Let Logic be the clock master and output MIDi clock to any devices you want to sync.

Try searching instead for "silence" in the key commands window, as the word "strip" does not appear (the function was renamed a while back). It's also in the menus in the track editor.
