  1. Just tried recording to an external drive formatted to Mac OS and nothing, no change. It's so strange, because in logic the audio has clicks and the waveform looks corrupted, but still, in the audio files, nothing, the file sounds perfect.
  2. Yes, I've just checked and the interface is set to record at 44.1 kHz, the same sample rate as the project. Triplets, yes, I'm on Big Sur. Is that a normal problem on BS? Should I update to the latest OS, Monterey?
  3. No plugins (made a new session intentionally to test this) and no, flex is not enabled. This legitimately happens to every session I open, blank or template, new or old.
  4. The artifacts aren't sonically there when I open the untouched files in the "audio files" folder of my session. If I solo the track in the session and bounced that, then the artifacts are there. The waveforms do seem a bit more choppy than normal waveforms (see attached). I'm using a Scarlett Focusrite 8i6.
  5. I’ve been having issues recording vocals lately...I’ve tested and switched out microphones, cables, the whole shebang...I’ve used different templates, completely new, blank sessions, and it’s all for naught. Frankly I know it isn’t the recording equipment because once I open a new, blank session, the problem goes away for like two takes. But then it always returns on the 3rd or 4th take...it’s not pops or clicks, more computerized corruption. It’s crazy strange. And the artifacts aren’t there during a recording or when the mic is simply connected but not recording. It’s only there during playback after a recording. I’m on the latest logic as of July 11 2021 on a late 2017 Mac purchased in 2017 with 40gb of Ram and 5tb of internal storage (hybrid). My buffer size is set to a mod amount of 128. Please help!!!
  6. Honestly, I wouldn’t do any of that - I’d use varispeed and do any additional mixing or bounces from there. You can even record on a varispeed-affected track...it’s the easiest and least detrimental way to change the tempo of an entire composition. Assuming a future reader hasn’t heard of that... Right click on the control bar (shows key, tempo, etc.), and under “custom” check “varispeed.” Your updated control bar will show a section where you can speed up or slow down the entire session. The default measurement is “percentage” but you can change it to “resulting tempo.” From there, everything in your session will be the new tempo shown in that section of the control bar. Now, to tap a tempo into logic, click cmd T to tap. The first tap will trigger a prompt asking if you want to use the tap function; just click yes and continue pressing cmd T to get your tempo!
  7. Thanks for sharing both of these, these are rad!
  8. Calling people names on a 13-year old post? Hope you feel better. Hey George, I didn't mean it to be a "name calling" session and I'm sorry you read it that way. Although I did see the post was old, I've only been a pro session player for the last few years and have seen that this narrative is perpetuated constantly. No matter the age of this post, if I came across it just this week, I'm sure many others have, and I merely wanted to pontificate that not only is the narrative detrimental to singers, but it is also from a place of severe misunderstanding and hurts the music community as a whole. It was sad to see that the industry hasn't evolved much in this matter in the last decade and that's why I responded in the way that I did to a considerably old post. Sorry you read past what I was saying and only got that quote from it.
  9. Also, to everyone knocking down singers...Guitarists choose their guitar's shape, features, stuff you can mod out, etc. Any other instrumentalist has that same luxury. Singers don't - they have to work with what they have. So stop being dicks about it.
  10. For midi tracks, you'd have to go one by one and, in the inspector window, transpose -1 to lower one semitone (do the math accordingly). For audio, you can enable flex mode and essentially do the same thing. It's time consuming but worth it; I'd save it as an alternative or another project altogether just in case. Hope this helps!
  11. Red Baron, the first solution worked, thank you!
  12. Hi! In case anyone comes across this and DOES use Sampler instruments, a way to clear those unused files in explained in this two minute video! I would do this in an empty template project, then overwrite the template with the changes.
