- Nils shows how to create Logic sessions for live performances with with interactive control
In this episode I demonstrate how to set up the switches for advancing the song to the next looped section and for making logic go to the next song in the set list and wait.

This is THE playback video I’ve been searching for! Thank you!
Thank you a ton. My band would be without tracks and lights if you had not made this video The IAC Go To Markers and Stop Playback settings are a life saver!
This video was exactly what I was looking for. I didn’t know about the IAC, meta events, or the MIDI environment. I cannot thank you enough
You're a legend! I switched to using Logic for my live applications because of the versatility and the meta events was exactly what I was looking for to take the next step.
Very in-depth, I knew Logic could do all that. A lot of information to grasp. In a short video. Thanks 🙏
Truly excellend demo, Saved me days of editing. Thanks 🇫🇴🤘🏻😎🖤🎵🎶
Nils u r such a badass! I remember you showing me your interface & footswitch as you we’re setting up for sound check, last time I saw u in SD & snagged your books. What a professor of all things guitar & performance!
Thank You. Great Info.
Hi Nils, great lessons of logic...
I have some problems to understand a part of this Ep5, because the video fail in some parts and maybe I miss something...
I don't could understand how you make logic jump to the next marker without cycle range enable... Because when jump to next marker, do it whit the cycle range enable, and I dont see a key command to do without enable...
Thanks for the videos
followed all of your steps. Amazing and priceless information i was looking for.
Great videos thanks Nils - many thanks and much respect from Toowoomba Australia...
Thanks for this series Nils, I always wondered how this was done. The insight is appreciated. Thanks again!
Thank you! This helps me understand more about midi events. I'm subscribing to your channel!
Thx NILS, wonderful explaination!!!
Hi Nils, Thank you very much for sharing and all the effort! The video is really helpful! I changed the IAC switcher to "set locaters by marker and enable cycle" This way I only have to switch off cycle on my roland pad to move on. And we don't have to worry about cycle errors!
thank you so much for this series. It's crystal clear, inspiring, thanks for sharing your tips
thanks for the detailed look at how this works! very helpful
Nils You helped me sooo much. That is what i was looking for. Im starting to work around all our reperuar in church as a worship band member and because its always a problem that somebody is absent on sunday, your solutions is what i Was thinking about but could fugire out how to set it up, cause I still didnt decide if I should buy Ableton Live or Logic Pro. So since I already own macbook air and mac mini, I will buy and learn Logic platform.
This is amazing Nil. Thanks for sharing. Another subscriber here
Thank you. Great video!
thanks a lot Nils
This is 👏🏼 awesome... thanks for the tutorial.. logic is a beast!!!!
Thank you so much ! It helped me a lot.
great helping me nils you are the best Carlman
Amazing Thank you so much for sharing. That would have taken a long time to figure out by myself
Thanks for this. You are awesome
Keep it up Nils
You’re inspiring Musicians that want to sound professional when the entire band is unable to travel or perform.
Your experience and wisdom is incomparable: without equal. Thank you! 🎶
Hi Nils! Great video, could you please explain how to program the loop button or looping a section? Im not very clear on that. I use to work with ableton live, but one of my clients needs to to his payback on logic. Thats the only part I dont understand. Thank you !
I second this request
Nils, I am in the exact same situation as you do, I play guitar and try to run logic at the same time, but the way I do it looks like the stone age compared with your set up. Thanks for sharing this information.
Glad I could be of help
Hey Nils,
danke für das Video.
Bei mir passiert mit dem IAC Port leider nicht jedesmal das gewünschte Ergebnis. Mal spring er zum nächsten MArker mal nicht! Woran kann das liegen.
Hi Nils, this is great. Thank you for sharing! How would you set up logic to not loop each section of the song (intro, verse, chorus), but just loop the guitar solo section? I want to just be able to let the session play in fixed format throughout the form, and then to have the ability to only loop for the guitar solo and then cue out to the next section with the footswitch.
You don't have to create markers on all section. If you already created the markers for verse and chorus, you can delete them. But leave the Guitar Solo marker. I just realized this myself LOL
Hi Nils, This is so helpful to see a real-world example with your live backing tracks. Thank you so much for the great series! I'm wondering how you have designated "Cycle" sections that stay in order and at the length and position that you place them (Ascending to the next one makes total sense with the IAC channel). Is the position based on the marker? I can't figure out how to have multiple cycles at all, without wiping out the one I just designated. The closest I can get is having "Auto Set Locators" checked under the cycle button, and then highlighting the actual audio waveform, or creating a way to go to "next marker" which isn't too bad if you're playing solo, not as good as having those timings planned out ahead of time, as it looks like you have done.
Ok the cycle regions are set up with the markers. So the length of the marker determines the length of the cycle region. By default logic creates a new marker with out any length or with 0 0 0 1 . You can change that to an even 4 or 8 bars or whatever when you click on the 3 lines on the top right and go to the marker edit tab. Or you can cut the audio region to exactly the right length, select it and from the top menu use the Navigate> other> "create maker for selected regions" command
@@nilsguitar That’s great, thank you for the reply. One more thing, how does it “remember” that you want the cycle the full length of the marker? That was my main issue is moving from one cycle to the next smoothly without having to drag it out again. And is your foot switch set to simply turn on/off cycles (same as C key)?
Hey! I have watched all your episodes. But how do you send the sound to the drummer and the sound to the crowd? You don't show how you split it so only the drummer hear the click track. Please help me.
You need an audio interface with 4 outs. So then in logic you will have out 1/2 for drummer click and count off and out 3/4 for FOH music. I also add a send to an avail. bus on each music channel and route the bus to out 1/2. This way I can also send music to the drummer if needed .I use a little focurite scarlett audio interface
I have a question regarding meta Go To. If I use Go To without Stop in my project, the visual playhead does not animate to jump to the corresponding marker. After around one bar or so, the audio catches up and plays, but not from the start of the marker. It's almost like the session is trying to catch up, as only silence plays for that bar, missing the intro to the songs. Is this something you have experienced? A bug with Logic maybe?
Hasn't happened to me, but maybe it's your computer not managing to catching up in time. You could try to make the marker a bar early so there is an empty bar before the music starts. See if that works
Great series, helping my band out a lot. However I've tried to buy and download the template and it is saying "File Not Found".
Hi Chris, Sorry to hear you a re having trouble with the download. I will send you another link right away that should work., Best, NILS
@@nilsguitar wow, thanks for the quick response Nils. That's awesome.
Way to complicated , STAGE TRAXX 3 is much simpler and more powerful for on stage backing needs.
