signal flow.....out 1/2 or master ?

ok i think the song sounds ok, time to make it final.

 

would i do the fade out on the master track or the out 1/2 ?

 

i'm not sure of the signal flow, as in does the final bounce come

 

from the out 1/2 or the master.

 

i switched from LIVE 7 where you put mastering plugs and automation

 

on the master track.

 

logic's master track seems to be volume only, no place to put any

 

final touch eq or anything. so i guess this stuff goes on the out 1/2 ?

 

if the master track is limited to volume, it makes me wonder what its

 

purpose is. what is done with it that wouldn't be done on the out 1/2 ?

 

or is it just for monitoring.

 

i guess i'm suffering from signal flow confusion, and / or

 

master track relevance / irrelevance .

Personally, I would always do fade-out/fade-in work

in whatever audio editor I'm using to host the mastering.

(Quattro/Peak/whatever)

However, you can get an end-fade by automating the

MainOuts of Logic if you wish.

I keep the "Mute" on Master in view to kill the whole

studio when some clown is whispering to me from the

other side of the room about how he thinks we should

change the lead synth to something else ........... :lol:

aha,

 

now i get it.set to zero,delete it from the mixer

delete it from the arrange tracks and

 

" forget about it "

 

thanx for unconfusing me , pantomimehorse.

 

i'm great at writing and playing, but when it comes to

audio editing i'm a freakin' neanderthal.

i have a mac pro, all four major daw's, couple grand

worth of plug-ins and editors and don't know how to use any of it.

 

just gimme an old fostex 4 track and an acoustic guitar

maybe i could figure that out !!

Ah ! Those were the halcyon days, when we bounced 3 across to make

room on another track, then decided that the song ought to be 32 bars

longer ...............

 

Logic will serve you well.

Watch all the threads for bug fixes and workarounds - Logic8 is a

wee bit flaky at this early stage. We all trust Apple are on the case.
