"Pro-Tools-esque" Environment


Recommended Posts

I (like many) am a convert from Pro Tools and it took me awhile to get used to the way Logic defines Aux and Bus objects a little different from PTLE.

 

This is a basic environment for how I work (guitar, bass, vox, drums, synths) with appropriate I/O labels for effect sends, reverbs, and submixes. Take a look and see if you might find it useful. This is similar to how I would arrange my mixer in Pro tools, hence the title.

 

I find little things like labeling I/O and buses has made my workflow a lot faster (there's no more..."uh...what was bus 16 again??")

 

hope someone finds it useful...(or at least...er...LOGICal)

:D

If you want to use it, you just pop it into this directory: (don't forget rename it so it does not overwrite your autoload!)

 

~/Library/Application Support/Logic/Song Templates/

Autoload.lso.zip

Hi.

If you're really into labeling stuff. Check out the Reference Manual from the page 306 onwards.

Also if you have time read the Window tutorial that I wrote:

I usually have a screen set that is only used for automation. It is zoomed in a bit so I can quickly see automation nodes and edit them. For me this works faster than View>Automation or KC.

Yes, David....i"m a huge fan of CMD+~ to toggle the windows. I have a decent amount of real estate with my 20" LCD, so i usually hammer back and forth between the two.

 

I also have the F9 "show all windows in application" set to one of the buttons on my trackball, next to the scroll wheel, so i often toggle that way as well. i used to use CTRL+TAB to get back and forth between apps, but now i use another button on the mouse to control F10, show all windows. muuuuch faster...

 

I....that's a good idea to have one screenset show automation. I recently just set a new key command for increasing the waveform zoom (independently of arrange zoom) to be able to edit faster on the fly.

 

i might try an "automation only" screenset soon.

 

thanks!

Would this be the automation event edit window? Or a regular arrange in automation view?

Hi people,

I also create several screens, one under another in my sessions, but I have reassigned the toggle window command to the Tab key.

 

I also have view automation set to just the letter A. I use the B key to cut regions on the fly. Set locators to region length is /

Looking forward to seeing this aload....

Best
