  1. Thank you again for the thoughtful response Fuzz. We never record in Logic. Is there any way to modify the recording settings to eliminate any realtime data reference? Will play around with the settings you mentioned above and report back. I'm intrigued by your last point about Drag Mode and Shuffle Right. Not familiar with that style of editing. I will play around with it myself to see if I can replicate when you referred to. Would you mind shooting a short loom video so I can see exactly how you approach it? - For context, our editing style is to edit out all space between words to remove any breathes, lip sounds, etc. It's tedious, but when done well it sounds really polished. It sets our audio apart in the podcasting space and we charge a high premium for our services. This results in 1000+ edits per hour of audio, and our error tolerance is <2%. The audio is listened to in full 3 times, twice by the editor once by the producer. Things also get trickier when working with 2 or 3 speakers in terms of being able to edit fast enough to not have to pause playback regularly when working in front of the waveform in this way. Also, given the recording, the waveform is not always a reliable guide to identify the subtle start/end of soft sounds, which makes it even more challenging,. All that said, my team typically finishes the first pass of a 60m podcast in under 3 hours.
  2. Hi Fuzz, Thank you for getting back to me! I did try bypassing/deleting the plugins to solve the problem before reaching out for help. In a new project with 0 plugins it makes little difference. It's a bit faster, but not much: https://www.loom.com/share/e6ec48db974e404fad903380568b73dd?from_recorder=1&focus_title=1 For context, I can playback videos at 3x speed with processing w/o dropping a single frame, while exporting videos, w/o any playback issues at all in Descript and FCP. Only time I've experienced any performance issues like this has been in Logic. Any other ideas as to what it might be?
  3. I'm editing podcasts. I often edit in front of the playback because I can see things in the waveform that I want to remove. However, Logic is very slow to process the edit. I often still hear the audio that was removed once the playback catches up to the edited section. Result is I have to go back and listen over this section again to make sure the edit was clean. Here is a video of the issue: https://www.loom.com/share/d9ede5ae218d49c99700c33d468ebd2a Idk why the audio sounds like s#!+ in the video – don't judge me 😂 I swear it sounds 💯 😉 I'm on a 2022 MacBook Pro, Maxed Out. I tried reconfiguring the audio settings, e.g. buffer, and didn't notice any changes. Thank you for your time! Any help is greatly appreciated. With Gratitude, Jason Ames | 9th Path Audio
  4. I edit podcasts and I use the editor window for finer edits, while keeping the main window open to remove larger sections of audio (see picture). Does anyone know if it is possible to set up *select all following* in the editor window, such that it ACTUALLY selects all following. Right now for me, it only *selects all following on the selected track*. So any time I want to move all the following audio together, I have to do that from the main window even though I'm making most of my edits in the editor window, and it would be much more efficient if I could *select all following* from the editor. Appreciate your time! Thanks community J 9th Path Audio
  5. DAVID FOR THE WIN ONCE AGAIN!! Thank you, appreciate you so much ))
  6. I wish it was that simple my friend, would be a useable workaround! For me, it pops up right in the middle of where my cursor is on either side, so it doesn't matter if I drag from the left or right. Still can't see the middle track. But thank you!
  7. Does anyone know if this is possible? I am editing podcasts and use delete and move a lot. When I am working with three speakers, the marquee window that pops up while making a selection blocks out where I am trying to place the edit on the middle track (see attached picture). Any way to stop this window from popping up?
  8. Interesting... when I import the screenset from a project that has the issue into a new project, it goes away ONLY if I have already deselected "show musical grid" in the new project's settings. If I import the screenshot and then switch the setting the issue is still there. But in the new project where the marquee tool is functioning normally, as soon as I zoom out the problem reappears. I'm giving up on this one David haha. I will simply use the secondary ruler view to get the time code to show. This must just be a weird bug. I can only imagine the backend that goes into running programs like Logic!
  9. I am going to try recreating the template, duplicating it over so there are multiple to see if it presents across the duplicates when it happens again, and locking the screenset to see if that might create a starting point that Logic will recall that doesn't have the issue.
  10. Reporting back again. The glitch does reappear at some point with no clear indication of what is causing it. No change in settings, etc. At some point working in the template, the problem arises again. It isn't clear to me what triggers it. Sometimes it starts as soon as I pull audio into the template. Other times, I am halfway through a project and it starts happening. Once it starts, I have not found a way to get it to stop. Closing logic, restarting computer, etc., doesn't help, the problem remains in the project that was saved. I am now seeing also that after having recreated the template, which worked fine for a few episodes with no issues, the issue is again present from the beginning when I open up the template. If I switch to a different screenset, the issue goes away. Makes me think this is just some weird bug.
  11. Hey David. Reporting back. Was not able to isolate the issue specifically, but I did narrow it down to the "screenset". Importing the screenset from a new project solved the problem. Super weird! Thanks again for your help, appreciate you!
  12. Attached here. Thanks again David! Hopefully we can get to the bottom of this. Audio Editing.zip
  13. Thanks for the response David. When I open a new project w/o a template, it works as expected. However, when I open my audio editing template (which is where I start when creating a template for each podcast), the problem presents itself. Super weird, not sure what setting would cause such a thing to happen. Any thoughts? FYI I am on a 2017 MacBook pro hooked up to an LG Ultrafine, running through a Focusrite 2i4. That's everything as far as hardware.
