Hi Charles. Millard Randolph Curry here from Central Arkansas. I ran across your Logic Pro 10.5.1 Midi Tutorial, and was very impressed by your calm, laid back & relaxed demenor. You present the information very well. I started using the early Logic Express when it was first available. In fact, I still use that old program & love it. However, I am in the process of mixing, mastering, and releasing 10 to 12 complete recording projects of numerous genres over the course of the next 5+ years. I started playing guitar when I was 7 years old when Dad taught me C, F & G. I added keyboards and several other instruments way back in 1972 through 1976. I was so impressed with your tutorial that I gave you a thumbs up, subscribed & clicked the personalized notification bell. I'm looking forward to watching more of your tutorials to improve my music development. So, Keep Up The Good Work Young Man! Take care and I'll touch base on down the line. Thanks Charles, job well done & very informative.
Hi Millard, I really appreciate the positive feedback and kind words. It's comments like this that fuel me up to keep going. I am excited to do more logic videos. Next time you come back feel free to link us to some of your music that you're working on, if you'd like, so we can have a listen!
@@CharlesCleyn You're very welcome Charles! I'm glad you got some encouragement from my comments. I have two of the 12 upcoming recording projects on a few of my music websites. Check out the song samples of the "Itchy & Thunder" and the "New Frontiers In Rock" projects at millardrandolphcurrymusic.com/ and let me know what you think. I'll be looking forward to hearing your opinions. I would appreciate that. Until then, here's wishing you all the best Charles!
Thanks so much. I've been looking for ages for a beginners tutorial on using midi instruments and editing which I could understand. This is so helpful.
You made this to be very clear, understanding of its audience, and patient with them too. I think this is a great video, even though I was familiar with most of these concepts.
thanks for your help Charles, I bought a Mac today and logic. I made a basic 16 bar song with your help. now I will have a play around with the different sounds. tomorrow I will watch some more of your videos. thanks
Great vid man.I'm kinda still new to Logic as well. I use my Roland Fantom X6 as the controller......but I don't know how to set it up in MIDI. I just connect the X6, & PreSonus interface & Logic to record tunes. Any advice you share would be great & appreciated.
I plugged an iRig Keys midi keyboard into Logic and it looked like it was working but I literally heard no sound! I checked all the audio inputs and outputs, everything looked right, but still no sound. And it’s confusing because when I plug it into GarageBand I hear sound, so I was wondering if anyone knows what that is all about 🤔
I’m drag and dropping some EZ keys midi and it keeps going to a stereo tracks set up with midi in the lower track and kinda empty in the top track. It Was dropping the midi to one track before? Help ?
I like this, as I was watching I was like "Why don't I just follow along for practice." Honestly such a good way to learn. I used the same Drum Synth Kit and Steinway Grand but I didn't have that Analog sound so I pick one of the other options and worked with it. I tried copying the beat (I'm don't understand drum beats too well) it worked out. The piano part I came up with my own and the same for the Alchemy sound I chose. It was fun and also really helped me take the pressure off of having to create something spectacular on my first try.
Thank you Charles for your patient and clear introduction to Logic. I have never had any training on computers and have to find my way through learning many basic elements of software and programs. I am a songwriter and would really benefit from using Logic in my compositions, in order to be able to build my songs. Currently have to pay to go to studios to do this. I will follow you and attempt to put in to practice what you are demonstrating.I have purchased the equipment, now just need to achieve some results from having a go. Thanks again. Ian, from England.
Thank you for another well explained video. I’ve been thinking about this quite a lot and I think the reason I love your videos and follow them is the calmness in which they are delivered. The screen displays really help too
Thank you so much for these videos. I've been using Garageband for years to make music just as a hobby, and learning so much from you as some of the functions are also on GB. Might even upgrade to Logic. Looking forward to more videos!
absolute angel of a man. i have watched way too many videos trying to figure out my midi problem and you solved it in the first step. my suffering is over thank you!!!
You’re incredible!!!! God bless you for all the amazing content you share with us. I’ve just started making music! This is extremely precious material! May you always be blessed with positive energy and joy man. Wishing you all the very best ❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you so much for making this video! It was EXACTLY what I needed to navigate more efficiently in Logic ProX! Do you know of a way to set particular midi sounds/instruments as favorites for easy recall later? Best wishes from Colorado!
God bless you for this video, I was about to go insane because I forgot what kind of project to set uo (software instrument or midi, etc) and then what to do from there
These are great tutorials really do appreciate them so much! As a total novice I have a silly question!! If you have an existing midi track, how do you assign it to a software instrument. Do you just play the midi track and click record on the software instrument track? Do you turn on input monitoring? Would you use the midi keyboard to sample the sounds in say alchemy, and then click record once you have found the one you like? Mostly what I’m experimenting with rn is converting stems to midi and then assigning to new instruments... THANKS AGAIN!! ❤
Hey Charles! Big fan of your Logic Pro X tutorials. They’ve been a big source of knowledge on the features available and how to effectively use them. I was curious if you have any content specifically related to setting up a midi controller (such as mapping) or is that something that would vary from controller to controller? Thanks for the great work you’ve been doing!
Very nice and helpful video. I would be really happy if you could make a video about mixing and mastering in Logic Pro X. You've got a new subscriber here:)
Greetings. Do you have a video where you show how to reassign the individual keys / pads on my MIDI keyboard to various individual elements in my drum kits, both in Logic Drummer and Drum Machine Designer. The default assigns are random and bizarrely spread out.
Thanks Glenn, I'm glad they are helping. I would recommend one that fits well to your workflow. For instance, some midi keyboards have knobs or pads that are helpful in creating music but some don't. I use a Nectar SE 49 because it's small and lightweight but honestly I could trade it in for something else too.
Hey Charles…here is one for you. I have emphysema so my vocal range is now greatly limited both in range and power. What I’m trying is dropping the pitch of the song ever so slightly coupled with the speed so I can sing in a slightly lowered register, then return the recorded vocal up to concert pitch by returning to the original tempo. I know some DAWs will correct the formant so it doesn’t go chipmunk…but can Logic do the same? Thanks!
Hi Charles.. might you be able to guide me how to get Logic Pro11.0.1 to actually hear MIDI signal from a Roland TR-707? Which track creation should I use in my new project to make this work?
I consider myself as going to Cleyn University. I've learn much and thankful there's no grades.... Seriously though, You making understandable in bite sized chunks. Thank you!
Charles, is it even possible to take a Korg Kronos combi pattern and put it into Logic Pro x in MIDI not as an AUDIO file? There are such beautiful patterns in the Kronos that lie "trapped" inside. Thanks so much.
Sorry. I have a master keyboard and i want to send a sustain message to a first midi track but not at the second. For exsample i want to use a pedal sustain to a piano but no a string instrument in the same time. I can disabilitad a control changes in a midi preference but change evrywhere. Tank you
How can I assign tracks to midi controllers. I. e. A drumkit to my drumpads, base to my midi keyboard and keys to my epiano. I need it for looping with my rc505 and i dont want to switch instruments in logic while iam looping. Thanks for ur help
I’m trying to connect my actual midi piano to the logic software but for some reason it does not work Do I need to buy a audio interface in order to hear strings and chords from my actual speakers I also enabled everything on midi I need help
Hi, i'm having a wired problem. I hear 2 instruments from my midi keyboard. I hear the midi instrument sound (like pad, horns, violin, drums etc whatever i have selected) but at the same i also hear a piano sound as well even though i haven't selected the piano instrument at all. That piano sound is there all the time. Never came across something like this. Do you or anyone have any idea what is causing this? That would be great help. Thanks is advance.
Hey Sharad, do you have any other DAW or piano software open? Maybe that's triggering it. Or, do you have a piano track that is armed somewhere? Try this, mute all tracks. Add a new midi track, then try again. Still happening? What kind of midi do you have? Is it just a controller? Or is it an actual piano keyboard?
@@CharlesCleyn Hey Charles, thanks for the tips. Yes, i din't realise that my Sibelius was open all the time and thats where the piano sound was coming :). thanks one more time.
lol blindign lights was made in 2019, november 29.You said the new blinding lights song, and also yes I know it got very populour at the time of release of this video. Great video btw
Can you do a video on working with midi with an external instrument like a piano in my case a roland rd 2000. My problem is I record midi from the keyboard and then it plays back but I don't have any control over the volume in logic pro x. If I record the midi to an audio track then I can change the volume etc but with midi from external instrument the volume doesn't work. Im also just confused about midi channels. My piano has 16 channels but they behave strangely to me lol. It's just because I really just don't understand how it all works ie the differences between triggering midi sounds from external piano vs using software instrument.
You’re right. It’s a bit complicated when we talk about working with midi instruments. I plan to do a video on this eventually because I’m getting a new synth rack setup.
I'm doing a MIDI remix project for Full Sail University's Audio Production Degree. (Using any song you choose, and download the file, most of which aren't the whole song.) This helped with some handy shortcuts I didn't know about. Thanks! Have you ever considered doing a MIDI remix video? I haven't watched a lot of your videos yet, just recently discovered you. I don't know if Dance, EDM is anything you produce, but it would be interesting. I've been looking for a video to help me with that, but can't really find anything. Keep up the great work, and Thanks Again, Be Well.
Thanks Nathen, glad it proved to be helpful for you and thanks for the video suggestions, I do have some music production videos coming up in the future and some more intermediate topics that could be useful to you as well.
I have recently switched to logic pro for audio recording and currently use a midi keyboard to make tracks. But I was wondering if I could setup my midi keyboard as a soundboard for when I record podcast for FX like claps or transitions?
Hey Charles!! I really enjoy your videos, especially this one - it has cleared up a heap of things for me. I really like how clearly and concisely you explain how to find the instruments. You have inspired me to make my own UA-cam channel to collaborate with other composers and musicians (especially since COVID made working in person so much harder!). Like you mentioned, I really need to invest more time in finding the instruments that work for me... so much work!! Thanks again - Can't wait for your next tutorial :)
Hi Aberdeen, thanks for the kind words and I'm really glad these videos are helping you. Lots more to come :-) that's super cool that they've inspired you to start your own channel, that's really cool for me to hear. Come back if you have any questions and I'll also be following along to your channel.
@@CharlesCleyn amazing! For sure, I will be keeping an eye on your content. I need to continue developing my skills producing and using the equipment. I am coming from an orchestral violinist point of view here, my mu-tech knowledge needs constant upgrading! It’s the tips in these videos of yours that help me out the most! Cheers! 😃
What I want to know - how to trigger record from an outside device like an ios synth (moog model 15 for example). I can get midi to logic pro, but then I got to route a bus to another input to get the audio. I figured out how to lock the midi clock however. Now I want to hit a note, and have logic pro x record without the 4 count intro. Maybe it's a big ask I don't know.
Hey, you can map a key on your controller as the record button if you’d like and you can also take the ‘count in’ off by pressing the numbers icon which is beside the metronome.
Bro what? Did you ever cover how to assign your midi keyboard to a certain input??? I now know how to pull up samplers and drums and alchemy thanks, only problem is I have no idea how to get my midi keyboard to make a sound ...
@@CharlesCleyn THANKS BROTHER. I'M JUST GETTING TO THIS PARTY, ALBEIT A LITTLE LATE, BUT BETTER LATE THAN NEVER. THANKS. DO YOU FIND A MAJOR DIFFERENCE OR PREFERENCE, PRO TOOLS VS LOGIC PRO X?
When I record my electronica drum set into logic, I don’t know where to find the hihat control. When I import my midi drums superior drummer three, the Mary signal of the hihat opening and closing is represented as a path. And I need to delete that order to use the hihat articulations in the VST. But when I am editing midi in logic, I can’t find that control panel to be able to edit the link to the intensity of the opening

THANK YOU❤️
Hey Charles!! I really enjoy your videos, especially this one - it has cleared up a heap of things for me. I really like how clearly and concisely you explain how to find the instruments. You have inspired me to make my own UA-cam channel to collaborate with other composers and musicians (especially since COVID made working in person so much harder!). Like you mentioned, I really need to invest more time in finding the instruments that work for me... so much work!! Thanks again - Can't wait for your next tutorial :)
Hi Aberdeen, thanks for the kind words and I'm really glad these videos are helping you. Lots more to come :-) that's super cool that they've inspired you to start your own channel, that's really cool for me to hear. Come back if you have any questions and I'll also be following along to your channel.
@@CharlesCleyn amazing! For sure, I will be keeping an eye on your content. I need to continue developing my skills producing and using the equipment. I am coming from an orchestral violinist point of view here, my mu-tech knowledge needs constant upgrading! It’s the tips in these videos of yours that help me out the most! Cheers! 😃
What I want to know - how to trigger record from an outside device like an ios synth (moog model 15 for example). I can get midi to logic pro, but then I got to route a bus to another input to get the audio. I figured out how to lock the midi clock however. Now I want to hit a note, and have logic pro x record without the 4 count intro. Maybe it's a big ask I don't know.
Hey, you can map a key on your controller as the record button if you’d like and you can also take the ‘count in’ off by pressing the numbers icon which is beside the metronome.
Thanks! 🙏 I learned a lot. I made my first song in Logic just using asfghjkl;'' :) that was fun
Bro what? Did you ever cover how to assign your midi keyboard to a certain input??? I now know how to pull up samplers and drums and alchemy thanks, only problem is I have no idea how to get my midi keyboard to make a sound ...
Logic is smart so just plug it in to your computer and logic will know.
WHAT MIDI CONTROLLER ARE YOU USING? THANKS
I’m using the nectar se49 in this video
@@CharlesCleyn THANKS BROTHER. I'M JUST GETTING TO THIS PARTY, ALBEIT A LITTLE LATE, BUT BETTER LATE THAN NEVER. THANKS. DO YOU FIND A MAJOR DIFFERENCE OR PREFERENCE, PRO TOOLS VS LOGIC PRO X?
When I record my electronica drum set into logic, I don’t know where to find the hihat control. When I import my midi drums superior drummer three, the Mary signal of the hihat opening and closing is represented as a path. And I need to delete that order to use the hihat articulations in the VST. But when I am editing midi in logic, I can’t find that control panel to be able to edit the link to the intensity of the opening
Hey man, are you talking about the velocity of the hi hats? Have you opening up the piano roll editor to dig into it?
