Hey man Thank you very much for the kudos! how have you been?

Hey guys, My cousin and I recently wrapped up one of our singles off our album which is coming out later this year. On top that, we shot a music video for it in sunny Florida! Everything was done in Logic, instrumentation, recording, programming, etc. Hope you guys enjoy the song and video Click HD so it sounds better .

hey man, thank you very much for your feedback and interest in the vocal edits. I have a lot of fun editing instruments and vocals with the stutter edit technique. Have you heard of BT before? He is my biggest musical inspiration and he known for mastering stutter edits. I listen to his Emotional Technology album all the time and study how he goes about doing his edits. It's crazy and I feel like i have only brushed the surface. Yes, a lot of automation and FX took place. A couple ideas: When a vocalist is holding a note, take the attack of a word or the sustan, cut it up to either 16th or 32nd notes and repeat for a bar. Merge all the new regions together. Open up the sample editor, reverse it, fade in, open up the time and pitch machine and shift the audio up an octave. Then pass it through a Fazz Wah Filter. And for kicks, send the track to a bus with a bright, long reverb. For signal flow purposes, have that reverb run through a compressor which is sidechained to your kick drum for the "pulsing effect." The second verse of the song towards the end, you hear a lot of distortion. Her vocals are broken down into 1 bar segments. One track had a fazz wah filter and a bit crusher plug in. The other track was dry. I panned them hard Right and Hard Left... setting up for cool transitions like (Distorted L - "Keep, it coolllll" (Clean R - Whats the name of this Club-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-) (Distorted L - "I cant remember but its all right...) for the rap verse, I had Wolfberg do three really good takes the lead had your typical eq and so fourth, and the 2 other tracks were layered with light distortion, reverb, and the 'spreader' plug in. I hope this helps! Check out BT when u can! Ross

Hello! My cousin and I did a really cool remix of Just Dance. We use a handfull of synths including Atmosphere, Albino, and a Novation synth. Alas, it all ends up in Logic at the end of the day! here is a free download: http://homepage.mac.com/rosslara/FileSharing2.html Our MySpace: www.sectr24.com Your feedback is appreciated!

Thank you for the quick reply. The tracks have no automation... it is clearly a bug of some sort. I am going to try and open another session and see if the same thing is happening.

Hello, I hope you all are having a great Christmas season so far. Today, i went through hullahoops to install Spectrasonic's Atmosphere with the wrapper etc. on my brand new MacBook Pro. Logic ran very well until installing that plug in. Now, when I select any track it pans immediately to the right. I pan the track back and then I playback, it does the same thing! Any ideas? Merry Christmas and thanks in advance. PS _ I am running 10.5.5, Logic 8.0.2, MacBook Pro 2.53GHz

Perfect! I got it! Man, this is such a relief, LOL

How would I record an arp/midi into an audio track? I side chained the ES2, but Im stumped from there.

Hey, Not a bad idea.. Im going to try that and get back to you.. Thanks, Ross

Hello, I am in a session which I am using an ES2 that has an aarpeggiator effect. I am assuming it is cabled correctly in the environment because during playback in Logic, everything sounds great. Problem is, when I bounce my song and playback in iTunes, the arpeggiator effect is not there. I just hear the notes I played. I have tried having the MIDI region in both the instrument and arp. track at the same time, but now I am just stumped. If anyone has any thoughts, it would be greatly appreciated... *Ross

Hey guys, I hope youre coming out of a nice Valentines day... hope it was good for you.. So I am running Logic studio 8.0 and was working like normal in a session the other day. I must have hit a key or something, because now ALL the regions in my arrange window do not display any waveforms. If I open the sample editor, all is well. I open other sessions, good to go there.. Any ideas? Thanks in advance? *Ross

Can you do this in Logic Express? It would be the same process, wouldnt it?

I have dealt with the same issue. A year ago, I wanted to organize all my Logic sessions into "genres/clients/etc." I ended up moving dozens of session folders around my external HD. Well, i then tryed and open one of them and all the audio files were missing. I could import them again but automation, timing (pretty much the whole damn thing) looked corrupted. I havnt been able to fix this since... I Learned my lesson! It would be nice though to see what I did wrong.. ever since then I have been rocking two extra external drives, but have been wanting to dig up some gooodies from the past! Peace, Ross

Hey, I;m new to the boards but I have been an obsessive Logic user for three years.. My name is Ross and I live in the DC area. I work at the Tysons Corner Apple store and if you see a SUV with Apple G5 liscense plates - thats me! I throw my 2 cents here and there, but will ask for your help as well. Check out my website and you can hear some of tunes and live mixes. www.djrosslara.com Peace, Ross
