Some people are born teachers!!!! That is you for sure. Having knowledge and being able to impart or share that knowledge are 2 very different things. You're one of the best teachers I've encountered.
You are a GREAT teacher! You speak slowly, you speak clearly, you don't assume the person listening has a lot of prior knowledge, and you're NOT trying to show off!, as so many of the other so-called experts do. I can actually understand you! I just wish I'd discovered you sooner. Thank you Sam!
This was the best explanation of busses I've encountered on YT for Logic Pro X Thanks!!!
Totally agree
Glad you think so!
Thanks so much!
Without doubt, the most understandable explanation of this subject I have ever seen……or maybe I’ve watched so many it’s finally making sense 😂…..clear….concise…..great visual demonstration……..THANKS!
When you get to a certain age where you realize you don’t have enough time left on earth to learn and master the one thing you’ve always wanted to do…
That’s why I started young bc I’m still figuring this shit out 8 years later lol
I started getting into production during Covid @ 40+ years of age. I’ve seen kids with a few years experience wow me with their skills and knowledge. Jimi reached goat status before his 30th birthday. If I’m fortunate to have another 40 years on this ride, then there’s no room for excuses.
“Do or do not. There is no try.”
@@jameswhitaker4357I stg lol I started when I was 12 gave up like 3 times got back into it around 17 and I’m 20 this year and it’s still so hard
@@slipperychugger that’s funny af I basically opened up fruity loops 3 times in high school and threw drums on a song no tempo set😂 but became fye in college I would make beats Inbetween classes in the library 📝 still going now at 26 it’s def worth it. I’m really just getting my stride now fr took years of learning my boi 💯
@@jameswhitaker4357 damn bro can I ask what the most difficult thing for you to learn was?
Thank you for this. At last I found someone who would explain this simply and concisely without being bombarded with complications that I did not want to know about. Well done !
Incredibly helpful. Thank you.
Very useful indeed, finally I start to grasp it!
Thanks! This was a very informative demonstration.
Thank you for clarifying that in your video found it pretty informative:)
That was a lesson well done!!! This is the best tutorial on utilizing Logic's bus and send functions that I have found. Exactly what I needed in order to create some custom ambient guitar channel strip settings. Opens up many creative pathways that I have not thought of before. Thank you very much!
Try subtly adding some of your other instruments to your ambience busses.
It can create a really cool buildup effect if you add tracks as the song progresses. If done right, by the last chorus/outro, the mix will sound huge and more layered than it actually is. You have to use automation or new tracks for this but it’s worth it.
Great vid
Awesome, man. Thanks.
Great video, thanks!
Glad you liked it!
great explanation ! thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Spot on Sam I will eventually absorb all this excellent knowledge much more quickly now thanks to your .......way of putting things...
thanks
I have watched so many videos recently in this one finally made it click… Thank you!!
I’m about to get logic and I think this video final helped me get a solid grasp on audio buses thanks mane
Well done. Great presentation. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great info thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Good one. Sir, you have explained all about Busses in a brilliant manner. Thanks a lot.
Thank you for this very clear explanation! Very helpful!

Brilliant explanation, thank you!
Thanks for watching 👍
Great explanation! Very easy to follow and understand. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
You’re an great teacher ! Thank you !
I appreciate that, thanks!
Great Info. Been looking for an explanation that didn't take a degree in the How To? Thanks a Platinum 😎👍
Well explained. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent explanation!!!!
Thanks Paul 👌
this was exactly what i needed to know, thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Nicely explained, mon ami! Up vote for you! Thanks!
Much appreciated!
Oh that’s great for trigger! I’m so glad I watched this whole thing 😅
im new to logic and had no idea what buses were.. now i know. you explained it so simply. greatly appreciated. i just subscribed to your channel to get some more learning tips
Clearest content on the bus topic. Well done man👏
Much appreciated!
Many thanks for posting very well explained .
Thanks for watching!
This is so helpful thank you!!!
I’m glad it was useful to you 👍
of all the bussing videos ive watched, this is by far the most informative. subbed
Awesome, thank you!
great delivery.
Thanks for watching, Steve 👍
thank you !!!😇
Excellent vid and very fluently presented
Thank you kindly!
everything i needed to know :)
Excellent tutorial
Glad you think so!
Very well explained! A big thumb up from Germany!😊
Glad it was helpful!
What a clear and concise explanation of buses in Logic. Thanks for sharing your expertise. There are times when we don't want busses though (or create our own)! Would you know how to load a drummer tracks without the busses it creates? I know you can do so with instruments by 'enable patch merging' and turning off sends. The same doesn't work for drummer tracks though. Any help appreciated . Thanks again!
VERY well done. This was a great refresher for me but I also learned some new things. Your manner of presentation is excellent and your explanations are clear and easy to understand. Thank you!
Thanks for checking it out! I’m glad it made sense and was presented in a way you could relate to 👌
I don’t know why you haven’t come up on my UA-cam feed b4, but I am so happy I have. I subbed within 30 secs! Brilliant explanations & style of content.
Absolutely amazing. I look forward to your future & past videos.
Cracking job. Well done & keep up the good work Sam. 👏🏾
Happy to have made it your feed! 👌
Thank you what a godsend you are a definitive must watch tutorial video thank you once again
Thanks for checking it out! Glad it helped.
Cool trick with slate trigger! Thanks!
Awesome, right? So helpful!
Thank god for Sam. Brilliant way of showing the way to go with options.
Sam , you are of the highest value for us simple brassed off musicians and writers. Fantastic. ❤️ cheers from nz.
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching 👍
this is by far the best explanation of bus in Logic Pro i've watched and listened to others explain this you do it with only one example one channel and one bus and you show where the child exists in the mixer where we can see this happening I could only understand you to your explanation your teaching your delivery, couldn't thank you enough
Thanks so much for checking it out, I’m glad it helped!
Thank you so much for this video. I have spent ages trying to find a coherent video explaining the very deepest regions of how buses work without it being brief, badly explained and done with a loud voice. Subscribed!
Glad it was helpful!
I appreciate you a lot brother
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
Thanks for checking out!
If only I had a bit of knowledge of yours. Incredible. I’m far away of that knowledge how to use buses like you do! Great, but I‘ll have to listen to this many more times, and even then I won’t understand everything concerning buses. But this explanation tells me you’re a complete expert for/in Logic. It’s worth to subscribe. 👍🏻👏🏻🙏🏻
You’ll get there I’m sure 🙂 Thanks for watching!
The first Logic Pro bus video that I actually understand. Nice work! I’ve subbed. I wonder when Logic Pro’s UI will be updated to visualise the audio routing on a big 2D panel … 🤔
I’m glad it was easy to understand!
sick
Very good, clear and structured tutorial! Bravo, excellent job! Your good video deserves at least just as many views (5 times more) as Nathan James Larsen’s video about it. His video is not as clear and structured as yours, lacks an intro and starts off with begging for likes and subscribing for far too long before the viewer even gets any value from the content. Good that you don’t do that. Maybe it’s about the video poster showing him with a cap and a pointing finger? People may find it familiar (I don’t, as I dislike caps and clickbait video posters with OMG faces). There was my feedback! Continue the good work 👍
Thanks im a beginner in logic and will try this out on my distorted guitar tracks
Just subbed also
Awesome, thank you!
BEST VIDEO, DUE TO THE HOST THANK YOU SIR🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks so much!
hello sir, nice class, the best teacher I've seen here in UA-cam.
i have a question, I try to do the same as you, when I turn down the volume of the guitar, I have no sound but also no bus sound, just no signal, do you know what am I doing wrong?
wow
101/10
He's still on the Merry Pranksters bus!
I have a question about this. If you have plugins on the main track, does it send the audio including the plugins to the bus? Or does it send the audio without the plugins to the bus?
Thanks, no wonder my mixes always cloudy, the effects been still washing both channels
The more you know!
This was very thorough but I got lost at the Pan, Post, Pre fader.
I’ll need to watch this 5x to get it.
1. Series vs Parallel - Got it
2. Studio Out is final destination- Got it👍🏾
All the in between I’ll have to figure out. 😩
Hope you got there in the end 👍 Let me know how you get on.
Hi, thank you for you contribution to humanity, this video is very helpful.
May I ask you a question about some minor issue regarding the send tab configuration. I see, when you click on the send tab, it shows the BUS option and right below it shows an OUTPUT option. In my logic it only shows the BUS option. I want to use the OUTPUT option in order to use an external effects procesor such as a Lexicon. How do you assign this OUTPUT option?
Sorry for bothering with this, but I'm a little frustrated.
Thank you for your time.
Hi, thanks for watching! When you see this (or rather, don’t see this) are you connected to an interface? If you’re just running off your computers soundcard then it won’t show any other outputs as there aren’t any to speak of.
I love this, but what I never understood is why busses are labeled as such in Logic... because those effect sends, and should be called aux sends (which they are in the mixer; very weird) rather than buses. Obviously, you can bus tracks together differently, but I like it emulating an in-line console workflow, and that part always confused me. Since when are we engineers calling it a reverb buss instead of a reverb send?! It's not bussing tracks together... I think they just reverted "aux" and "buss" somehow. Kind of like how Fender reverted trem and vibrato on their amps. A bit of a pet peeve of mine xD
It’s a good point. Bus is just the default way of saying “this route takes audio somewhere.” So it could be the master bus, an FX bus, a monitor bus. It’s just talking about audio taking a certain path to go somewhere. It’s really a cover all term, so a bus could be a send, or a return, or an input, or an output. It either makes it simpler or more complicated, depending of which way you look at it! Thanks for watching!
how do you export busses without creating and bouncing external bus tracks
How many times did you say Final Desination?
I only use busses and have for years in logic. More busses = more control. None of my source tracks go to the stereo output or a bus. Each track goes to a dry aux as well as a wet aux, then the wet and dry are then summed into a stereo bus.
Interesting. What effect does this have on the overall sound or track?
That’s pretty wild, but I like it. So you have a regular mix bus and an FX mix bus, which are then summed together to create your final output?
I am currently a developing engineer, this was helpful , but still a little lost. Can we use those same buses in a different template for another mixing session?
I’m glad it helped. Yeah absolutely, you can add them in the same way as the tracks 👍 If you’re adding tracks that have sends going to busses, Logic will ask you if you’d also like to add the busses, which is handy.
Fantastic explanation - thanks! Can I suggest some content? How to evaluate the results of Plugin Doctor (e.g. what are second and third order harmonics in analogue emulations) and more generally, how to use it. Thank you.
Thanks for watching, Brad. I’ll certainly keep it in mind, sounds like it could be really interesting.
@@hardlines2635 If you went to college, you'd know that in this context 'there' is spelled t-h-e-r-e. Just sayin'.
How do I increase the Send Level Knob using a keyboard shortcut? I want to use it to automate my delays using touch/latch mode
I’m not sure you can unfortunately 😞 not without a controller of some sort.
Sorry mate I just checked mistakenly gave you thumbs down while you truly deserve is thumbs up I've corrected and adjusted and I'm very thankful for this informative video we love you thank you once again, this is by far the clearest definition and tuition on buses thank you thank you thank you
I've transferred my old analogue cassette recording from the 90's as a single track in Logic Pro and am trying improve the sound quality. Do you know what that process is called? I can't find anything about this subject online. The only thing the internet talks about is how to make new digital recordings sound more Analogue. I'm trying to do the exact opposite. Any advice? Do you have any tutorials on that subject? Anything? Thanks
Hey Patrick. Drop me an email at sam@nastudios.co.uk and let’s see what we can do 👍
Is this good for vocals?
Busses in general?
Barbacode
ok i want a mono kick with a mono delay. I have a mono channel with my kick audio and send to a mono bus with a dual mono delay but the output is stereo because I only hear the delay on the left. how to make left and right the same? I added a Utility > Gain effect set to Convert Stereo to Mono after the delay but still, same issue. it's not really mono
Which delay are you using?
@@SamLoose OK i figured it out. I was using a mono bus and mono version of the Gain utility. SEems the bus must be stereo (counter intuitive) and only the Stereo version for he Gain utility includes the "mono" toggle ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Why the heck ist bus 16 called aux1?
There is a reason…I just can’t remember what it is…
Thank you for your explanation…cheers
Thanks for watching 👍
Me now overthinking…why bus 16?. Why not 1 ?🤔🤔
16 is a good number, and I always save bus 1 for my drums out of habit 😉
There is no 'X' any more. ;)
You've got it locked. Excellent presentation. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
