I just finished the first lesson in David Nahmani's book Logic Pro X 10.4 and started the second lesson. When I went to solo over the output of lesson one, I noticed that it was in the key of Eb major instead of the key of C major. The key of my project is set to C major. When I import Apple loops, I have it set to import the loops in the key of the project. When I add loops to the project, it does change the original key of the loop (regardless of what key the initial loop was in); however, instead of changing it to C major (the key the project is set to) it is heard as Eb major. For some reason, Logic Pro X is playing/sounding the key of C maj as Eb major. If I transpose the loops and lower them by 3 half steps, they then play in the key of C maj as the project indicates.
I also noticed when I load the "Let's Dance" lesson file from the book's website (for Lesson 2) into Logic Pro X and not the one I created, it also plays or is heard as Eb major. Even though the top bar indicates that the project is in C major.
Not sure if it matters, but I use a Novation Impulse 49 MIDI keyboard with the Automap software and an Audient iD14 interface with Logic Pro X. Just mentioning this in case the installation of these devices may have impacted the key of the software in some way.
I'm new to all of this and would appreciate any support that can be provided. Thanks in advance! So far, l'm loving working through David's book!!!
