Logic Pro X: All The Fade Outs
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лип 2024
- This week, we’re exploring the Fade Out. Why does the idea of a track seeming to continue forever as it fades to silence, so appeal to our inner pop-music lover? I’ll start by posing that musicological question before showing you how you can create a whole-track fade out using the Output Track and some judicious Automation. I’ll show you how to create non-linear fades, as well as S-curve fades. And then we’ll move onto the idea of adding Fades to only certain tracks of your mix, so that some fade and others stick around, which is always quite a beautiful experience. And lastly, we’ll look at how to leave only the reverb behind, to let your sounds float off into space. If you like that idea, the Pre-Fade Auxiliary is about to become your new best friend.

Jazz Club ‘nice’ at 18:03 😊 another fantastic video - thank you!
Ha! Thanks Matt.
Thank god for that. We didnt need another video like “the top 11 hidden features in Logic 11 that apple didn’t want to tell you about” 🤪
Absolutely - this is very definitely not one of those channels!
My last song I used the speed up and slow down fade outs with incredibly cool effects
Very very powerful tool for layering ear candy in transitional spots
Absolutely - some lovely things lie that way.
Wow! PFL reverb like that never occurred to me before. Genius!! Thank you 👍
Great! Have fun with it, Peter. And thanks as always.
Thanks for the video. And I believe the term you're looking for is "proportionate to"
Thank you! And thank you!
Thanks for another great video, Jono. I reckon fade outs came from the radio stations when they started rock n roll tunes. They probably needed a way to merge from one tune to another, unlike classical stuff which tends to come to a natural end. Just a thought.
That's an insightful theory - may well be right. Thanks!
Excellent presentation
Thanks, Ross. Greatly appreciated.
Someone asked me if Jono would have a logic 11 video up today. I told them hell no, Jono is more teacher than mere UA-cam personality.
Your credibility is top! Pure class.
Can’t wait to learn your takes on the new features.
Ha! Thanks so much. You're right, we'll get to all the new and good stuff soon. But we'll let all of the reaction videos happen first... ; )
Nice, what I also like to do is to apply some kind of moving high/low pass filter while fading, as it changes the sound even more dramatically to end the song. I guess whoever invented fading songs was annoyed of being woken up at the end of each concert with the big finale/coda bang..
That's a lovely idea - timbral change as volume change happens alongside it. Thanks for sharing!
At a future point in time, I want to pick up music and buy Logic Pro, there are some really clear easy-to-follow snippets that will help. Subbed today, cheers.
Many thanks - and welcome! New episodes here every Wednesday and a new Short every weekend. Delighted to have you with us.
Nice demo, nice fades.
Nice D, nice P.
In my opinion the fade out gives the impression that that music continues without you.
I very much agree with you.
Thank you!
You're most welcome!
Great tips. Thanks. 👍
You're welcome!
Fade out means the party keeps going (without us).
Poetic and true. : )
Nice one , cheers Jono.
Thanks as always!
Fantastic. 👏 Can pre/post fade auxiliaries be automated if we wanted to toggle between their usage on the same track? Or would we need to create a duplicate track activated when necessary with the other fade option enabled?
Hi Jennifer. That's a really interesting question. There is - in theory - no reason why you couldn't set up two sends to the same Auxiliary effect, one of which was Post-Fade and one Pre-Fade. And then, absolutely, you could Automate the send levels, the level of the Track feeding those Auxiliaries itself and, of course, the level of the Effects Auxiliary too. Maximum flexibility! The only note of caution I'd strike would be to try to avoid using both of the Aux sends at the same time, as you'll soon overwhelm the amount of level being sent to the Effects Aux. I hope that all makes sense!
@@jonobuchananmusic Thank you! I'm going to sit down and practically enage each step you've desribed so I can get my head 'round it properly. Thanks again!
Opportunity to redo the intro for 11

Thank you!
