jobi93 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Hello everyone, I started using Logic a while ago, and I was used to Cubase. In Cubase, there's a handy "Play tool" which you can use to preview a certain region starting from the point you clicked on. In Logic, I can't find a similar tool. The nearest I could find was marquee tool - and playing the selection with 'space' button- but it plays ALL tracks, not just that one. Sure, I can SOLO the track I want with pressing "S", but let's say I have 10 different takes I sang a phrase, and want to decide which to keep. I would then need to: 1. select region with marquee, 2. select track, 3. solo the region, 4. play - and repeat for each track. Since it it was extremely easier in Cubase (litteraly just clicking on the regions to play them!), I suppose there must be some option in Logic I don't know about or something similar? Thanks a lot!!

David Nahmani Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 You can Click-hold the region with the Solo tool. Or, my favorite way: Control-S to turn on Solo mode, then click the region to select it, and Command-Spacebar to play from selection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Nahmani Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Wow that was fast. Thanks a lot! You're welcome! By the way if you Option-click-hold a region with the solo tool then it will start playback from its beginning rather than from the position where you click-hold.

On my Mac Command-Spacebar brings up Spotlight, but Option-Spacebar plays the selection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
