Fantastic! Thank you for sharing these!! When the customer sends you notes on changes they want you to make, they usually start at the beginning and send you timestamps chronologically. If they want you to delete certain parts you should start at the end of the audio file and work your way 'backwards' - That way the timeline doesn't change for you. If you start at the beginning of the file and 17:01 start deleting parts, the timestamps will change later in the file. Sorry if I described that poorly.
You're a bloody legend!!! And thank you for not mucking around for the first 10 minutes and jumping straight into the good stuff
All killer, no filler 👌
Thank you so much for your tips! I find it even faster to first delete all the unnecessary regions with marquee tool throughout the whole length of the file and only then select everything and use "shuffle left" tool, then with everything still selected do a crossfade to all of them. This way I'm not able to listen in real-time to my edits but I can be 99% sure that they are accurate because I listen and see visually the problematic areas that need to be cut. This way I don't have to stop, ripple-edit and start again, playback goes almost non-stop!
Hey bud, just saw your video on Ripple edits. An option is, shuffle left. Go up to drag mode, change it to shuffle left. Works like a charm. Simply highlight delete boom. Automated. Have a good one. :-)
Great tutorial! Thank you! :)
One added tip, if we use the Better Touch Tool we can program our most used shortcuts then edit with the touchpad using one hand. 🙂
Shift and F, love the bonus tip
Glad it helped!
It's rare to find a tutorial that goes right into exactly what I need... So thank you for that!
Glad it was helpful!
This was hugely helpful - I've been editing a weekly podcast for two years and you just saved me even more time! Would love to see something on stripping silence - settings, etc.
So glad it helped you out!
Editing my own podcast, your tips works extremely helpful. Thank you.
Outstanding, Sam! Just making the move from GB to Logic, and this tutorial has got me fired up! Nearly as delightful as helpful. Ripple edit shortcut and SHIFT F were both money. As soon as I finish this ep, I'll follow your guidance about templates. I'm about to subscribe, and when I feel like my brain isn't full, I'll search your channel for a bus tutorial. Re: other tips, you didn't address disabling playback pre-roll, but I've found it very helpful for exact edits. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Brilliant!
Yeeeees! Thank you! This will speed up my workflow! Amazing tips! Thank you, Sam!
You're so welcome!
Thank you for these great tips!
Thanks for watching!
Amazing tips! Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Thanks Sam ! just started a podcast gig, perfect timing :)
That’s great, I’m glad it’s going to be of some use. Have fun!
Killer tips and training! Thanks!!!
Thanks for checking it out!
Hi Sam, great tips here!! I'm making changes to my podcast editing template thanks to you! The Ripple delete trick is especially useful when you have multiple tracks - something I was trying to improve with other techniques, but this is so much better.
I use the Shuffle Left Drag mode for the single presenter podcast I edit weekly, but I'll start using Delete and Move (with the Sam key command) so I'm ready for my next multi-speaker project!
(Also: clearly not an advert)
Fantastic. Thanks so much. Very helpful.
BTW ... / is a forward slash.
Great tips! I love the ripple edit, as I use this same thing for video in DaVinci Resolve all the time. This will be a big help in Logic. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much!
You're welcome!
great tutorial! thanks
Thanks for your insights.
Legend
Thank you Sam!
This was just what I needed to get going with Logic again.
I’ve tried it multiple times in the past but never found a good flow for podcast editing… these tips might just be the key.
Great to hear! I find it to be a great DAW for Podcast editing, I think a lot of the features are right there waiting, you just need to know how to find them 🙂
Learned something from this to use in my podcast recordings! Awesome.
Great to hear! Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Thx m8, just started editing a podcast today ! Killer tips !
That’s great to hear, I’m glad it helped you out! Let me know how you get on, and if you come up against any obstacles; I’ll see what I can do 👌
shortcut guru great tips and its a forward slash I think :)
Hi, thanks for the video, I learned some great new tips, and now I'm a subscriber! Just regarding sidechaining the music compressor, I also do the same thing using the Wavesfactory Trackspacer plugin, and this works really nice, dealing a little high and low cut to keep the feel of the music going without clogging the vocal. However, is there a neat way to get the compressor to "look ahead" and preemptively duck the music in time for the voice. When I've emulated this it just makes the starts of words and phrases a little clearer over the music. I thought about bouncing the music track in place, and then pulling it back in time, but this is a pain if the voice needs re-editing. I also thought about sending al the mics for the voices to a buss after the side chain send, and then adding a delay on them (not an echo but a time delay of like 0.2 to 0.5s) so that they're all shifted 0.2 to 0.5 seconds later. I just wondered if anyone had tried these things before or has a neater way of achieving this?
Great stuff man. Another tool I use a lot if remove silence.
Would love to see a podcast-specific tutorial on how best to use the remove silence tool. Any recommendations?
I actually don’t find myself using remove silence that much for podcasts, although I can see it’s uses. Do you use it a lot?
Hi @@SamLoose Yes, I use remove silence and then a 'tighten' function before I start editing in earnest. My tracks are then full of bits of audio that I can manipulate at will without ever having to use the splice tool. I'd like to be able to explore Logic Pro for podcast production, but I'm finding it hard to switch from Ferrite on my iPad. Do I wish Ferrite had a macOS version? Yes!
Good job here! I taught myself all this on Reaper and am just looking at what Logic can do.
It’s a great DAW 👍
this is a pretty useful tutorial! nice work as always! that 1 hour offset on the synchronization has always annoyed me in logic. if you don't like it, on your template, you can go to project settings-->synchronization and turn it down to zero. then whenever you use your template (with the secondary ruler turned on) you can see exactly where you are. but it looks like you kind of use it as a guide post to know where the minutes are when jumping around. I can see how that could be handy too.
+1 on the secondary ruler trick! As you say here, that makes jumping around by typing a single digit for bar number possible since you can see the bars in the secondary ruler. I also have my tempo and signature set so when I use the < and > keys, playhead moves in 1-second increments. All about making it easy, thank so much Sam.
Hi Sam, I've never really used side chain compression. This is actually a nice description how to use it (even if it's an advert :) :) :) ) . Are there applications of this in a rock/guitar based mix ? Cheers.
/ is a forward slash ..... I think :)
There are definitely applications in rock music. Sidechaining the vocal to the guitars to let it cut through, for example. Or perhaps the kick to the bass guitar to let it poke through in the low end. Side chains have many uses 🙂
Hi Sam, great tips! There is another way to go to a position: simply double click the time display and enter the desired time to jump there (works also with bars). Also, when the customer asks for several corrections after listening to the proof copy, it's better to begin with the latest time position and work towards the beginning of the podcast. This way the times won't get jeopardized.
I was just about to add the tip about working backwards :)
I’m always starting from the end when making changes 👌 Helps keep the rest of the time stamps intact. Great tip.
Great Video, thank you. Is it possible, to fill gaps between sentences in Voice overs with room tone from the clipboard? (Like "Repeat to fill selection" in Pro Tools?) Sometimes, the gap between two sentences in noisy, but the length of the gap should stay the same. I don't want to completely remove it to digital silence and want to fill the gap with room tone (For the length of the selection)
Excellent tutorial, thank you sir! If you could make a video about podcast vocal chains (EQ, compressor etc.) that would be great!
Thanks for watching! That video is on my list 👌
@@SamLoose Amazing, thanks for the fast response!
Also, do you have a opinion on using strip silence for podcast editing?
As of right now I'm using Reaper (Ultraschall) for editing but I want to make a full switch to logic so I'm looking into transforming my workflow.
I typically don’t use it, but I can see the attraction. I feel that setting one threshold for an hour long piece of audio is kind of asking for trouble. Maybe that’s just me. I like to do it manually as I’m going through and listening.
@@itsTorge I have used strip silence for over 140 podcasts, I find it works well for me. One of the ones I edit is 4 or 5 people in the same room, and I find I do have to be cautious with what threshold I set and then listen out for places where speech bleeds onto another mic, but it catches most of it.
You lost me when you started with the buses (too many buses at once - a perennial British problem). However, the first half was fantastic for my beginner brain. Thank you, Sam!
Same, lol. Great tutorial but could've maybe explained better at the end
Question can you do all of this in Garage Band?
I'm new to Logic Pro and using it for podcast editing. I'm going to be doing some interviews on zoom and cleaning them up in Logic Pro. Any suggestions?
I don't seem to have an option to change the stereo out option. Any insight, anyone?

Is there anyway to disable the edit window popping up if you double click a track? That's making me insane.
Not that I’m aware of 😞
Just started a two person podcast and using Logic to edit. Each channel has different effects applied, but when I bounce to MP3, the exported audio file sounds like none of the effects are applied. I'm sure I've missed something simple. Thoughts?
That’s a strange one. Are you bouncing in the usual way, not bounce in place? Depending on which way you export, there’s a button that says “bypass plugins”. Could this have been checked by accident?
@@SamLoose correct, bouncing to MP3 and made sure all options are setup correctly. I also tried using the other format choices, but the effects are still bypassed when the final file is ready. Strange.
here's a dumb question: instead of ducking the music under a VO going through a bus/compressor etc why not just key frame the gain level lower where you want the voice over to be?
Good question. A ducker is easier to just “set and forget” as it can sit in a template and work whenever is needed. Automating (or keyframing as you said) works the same, and would be fine if it’s just one occasion, but if there are multiple times when you need the music ducking then it can become quite laborious.
@@SamLoose ok thank you!
i have literally wasted 6 hours editing one day because i didn't know about ripple editing
The more you know!
Uncanny timing
