You are really good at this. You would make an excellent Logic Instructor for a school like maybe…Full Sail University online. You have great energy and your videos are never boring. You have the skills to have a few more revenue generating sources. You have opened my eyes so much because you don’t just ell us about it- you show us by getting straight to the real application and on to the next! Cheers to your soon to be 50k subscribers!
I've been using Logic for 10 years and I did not know the time selection/stretch trick from the piano roll thanks! Just to add on though if you separate by note pitch on a single output instrument like drum kit designer, the resulting tracks are not separate mixer tracks. If you change a plugin on one, you change it on all of them. A fast way to separate them for real into audio is to select all the regions and hit control + command + B which bounces the track in place to audio. There is no fast way to separate them as midi instrument outside of duplicating the OG instrument track as many times as you have regions and dragging them down to the new instrument tracks.
Great video omg i've been looking for how to do some of these but had no idea how and as for the new ones i learned, i'm gonna incorporate them in my music production now. thanks!
❤😮😊 Dang! You Rock Big Time! I’ve been checking out your vids over the past couple of weeks and I’m extremely impressed with the quality of information that is covered in short and precise chucks fit for easy consumption. Thank you so very much for all you are doing for the Logic Pro community!😊
Thanks for these tips! One correction though: As I've learned recently, the "Chance" parameter in the step sequencer does NOT randomize the given step on each iteration of the loop. Instead, the probability you set will simply determine whether or not that step will play EVERY TIME. So the step will either always play or never play, and "Chance" just determines the probability for one or the other scenario, but once you play the sequence back for the first time, it stays deterministic from there.
Excellent SEIDS... Drum production tricks are always a winning topic. Humanizing them and getting the random hits as you showed. Also you cover midi instruments well. I enjoy seeing how you use loops to inspire and then get those loops working as midi instruments. Good stuff. Blessings and success to you!
This is a great video, and as always I've learned a few useful little tips. I hope you don't mind, but I have a couple of little things to add in case anyone finds them useful: 1) When using the step sequencer, if you want to change a particular value for every note on one row (like when the snare was super loud in this video at 08:05), you can either click on the little up and down arrows at the right hand side of the track header, or click and drag them up or down to make bigger changes. It works with whatever value you have selected, including note on/off, so it's also a slightly quicker way of adding or deleting notes from every square in a row. 2) If you separate a midi region by note pitch (like at 10:56), each track it creates is actually running through the same instance of the instrument plugin, so it only shows up as one channel in the mixer (and if you mute/solo the individual tracks in the arrange window or change their volume, all the tracks will be affected at the same time). By itself, this doesn't give you any more control of the mix. If you want to be able to mix the individual drums in a kit separately, you have two options. Option 1: duplicate the drum track a few times (select the track and press cmd+D). This creates entirely separate copies of the track, so you can then separate the midi region by note pitch and drag the different regions to the relevant new tracks. But the much more efficient way of doing it is Option 2: use multi output instruments. Lots of instrument plugins (including drum kit designer) can send different things to different channels in the mixer (you have to make sure you have the multi-output version of the plugin loaded). You'll then notice a little + sign on that channel in the mixer. Click on that a few times and it'll show you all the different outputs (kick, snare, hi-hats, etc). If you want even more control, you can select one of the multi-output kits in the library. All the routing and everything is already set up for you, but it includes all the individual microphones (snare top/snare bottom, etc, as well as overhead mics, room mics, etc).
It's really really useful. It can be a really quick and simple way to program a drumbeat, but you can also get really experimental with it. For example, you can make different parts different lengths, so I love making a hi-hat part that's like, 1 beat shorter than everything else, so each time the pattern plays, the hi-hats play at slightly different points. The whole thing eventually lines up again, but it means a 2 bar loop is now essentially an 8 bar loop or whatever. Great fun!
This channel has been amazing, I appreciate you and your journey so much. You have inspired me and my team, and I appreciate you carving your groove out as a Music Creator. Here for it! #IMakeBeats
I've always shied from the drums because I could just never get it! But now you've given me some great tips so I think it's time to give this another try. Still somewhat new to Logic and I really like how you present all these tips!
Very cool video, SEIDS! Christian Henson at The Crow Hill Company gave you a shout out on one of his latest videos about your channel and all of your great Logic tips. Cheers!
Many thanks, very useful! Just a quick note that if you change the starting position to anything other than 1 1 1 1, the project becomes incompatible with Logic for iPad.
I've been using Logic for like 10 years and still learned stuff here :)
The Sequencer is a game changer

I go to full sail for audio production and absolutely watch your videos!
Thank you!!!!
Long time Logic user. Learn new tricks EVERY time I visit. “How cool is that ?” Thanks!
Your videos are always great but, this one... I can't believe how much I learnt in less than 12 minutes! Thank you.
Ahhh thank you for watching!!!

I gotta get your LPX booklet!!! You’re truly a guru of Logic
Yay!! Thank you for your support!!

ive been kind of intimidated by the step sequencer, and i am so ready to just play with it now

Yes!!! Its so fun!!!

Really getting alot out of your content. Just bought LogicPro mainly to build backing tracks. Thank you for all your work!
Hi Seid yes this ebook is super helpful 🎉 good stuff❤
I always learn something from your videos!! Keep it up
You the best Seids!
I've always shied from the drums because I could just never get it! But now you've given me some great tips so I think it's time to give this another try. Still somewhat new to Logic and I really like how you present all these tips!
you ALWAYS teach me something new. Much appreciated
The goat🐐
This is the video I needed to start. Thank you SEIDS
This is great info! So glad I found your channel!
Great content! And really helpful. 👍
Very cool video, SEIDS! Christian Henson at The Crow Hill Company gave you a shout out on one of his latest videos about your channel and all of your great Logic tips. Cheers!
Ahhh he is the best!!!!
Hi Seids Thanks much for such cool tips in logic pro..By the way i like that bamm word u always use😊By the way new subsriber here..Be safe always😘😘
Thank you.
Seids is THE BEST!
Many thanks, very useful! Just a quick note that if you change the starting position to anything other than 1 1 1 1, the project becomes incompatible with Logic for iPad.
Love it, thanks a lot
Awesome Tips.. SUBBED!!
Very helpful video. Thanks!
LOVE YOU AND THANKS
hi seids can you do a video how to export the final song finished ready to release that? thx so much nice video
Appreciated.
cool thanks. 🙏🏽
this is awesome..
Bad ass Thank you
Let’s go!
Привет. Подскажи пожалуйста, есть ли в Logic PRO какой нибудь плагин который бы заменил VU Meter? Заранее спасибо.
Hi, I have a medley of Beatles songs on Logic Pro X, but I need to change the individual key of some of them, how can I do that ?
ya so legit :D ty!
Grate
Logic totally forgot to put the Chord track in the global track list in the MIDI editor!!!
Hello, thanks for the tips, unfornately, I don't have the command "Record MIDI to track"...
You have to update your logic!!
Sabrina,, Please put "That's Super Cool!" on a water bottle for merchandise.
Hahaha that would be awesome!!
you create
"Bam" ;-)
Bam 💥
I see a butterfly on your arm. What's the story behind that ? I like it.
Thank you! I just wanted a butterfly! ❤
