Sooooooo jealous of any beginner stumbling upon this series. Seriously. Even today I keep learning lots and lots from you. Outstanding pedagogy as always, Jono. Saludos desde México :)
Thanks Esteban, that's very kind of you. Also - a heads up that later in the year, content is coming for more experienced Logic users too. There's a lot planned for the channel.
It kind of amazes me that I can sit down with a morning cup of coffee, my bowl of cereal and in fifteen minutes I've become better at using Logic. And understand something I didn't fully understand before. Thanks for this video Jono. It's clear, articulate and very helpful! Much appreciated.
Thank you for this very straightforward and clear intro to signal flow. I look forward to the next installment on Track Stacks. I’m hoping you expand this topic to external MIDI instruments, MIDI controllers, and MIDI interfaces. That’s where I get lost to the point of sometimes misunderstanding what In and Out mean on my devices. Seriously! I’ve succeeded in getting my Keystep Pro to link to external and internal synths with Logic being the clock. But I’m at a loss to actually explain why it’s working. Thank you, as always, for your excellent instruction!
Hi Gary. Thanks so much for this. Absolutely, the next couple of weeks will be about Track Stacks, side-chain inputs and 'internal' signal flow possibilities. I will definitely make videos about integrating the use of External hardware too. On the list!
Nice one, Jono. Can I ask you: there’s a way in Ableton to split a track, apply different insert effects to each path and even save the fx chains for use next time. Especially useful for splitting bass parts with filters or eq and processing high / mid / low differently. Is there an equivalent in Logic? I’ve not been able to crack it! Pete
Hi Pete, probably the easiest way to do the equivalent in Logic would be to use the Duplicate Track button (next to the New Track button above the track list) and then to use the Scissors to cut and assign each part of a sound to different tracks. You can then configure each one with your chosen effects and then save the entire instrument/effects treatment as a preset for easy recall in any other project. Hope that helps.
Didn't you forget to mention that you have to turn up the send knob from each of the tracks that you are sending to the aux-track? With trackstack they are automatically on pre-signal level. Right? Peace
Hi Charlie. I've just watched this again as it's been a little while since we made this one! You're right, I didn't mention turning up the send level to route signals to an Auxiliary but I have shown where to do this both when I first mention it and when I add Aux sends from the subsequent tracks. If you're having trouble, let me know and I'll happily explain where it's done. If you select multiple sounds and assign them to a Track Stack, this is slightly different. Rather than giving you an original track (routed to the stereo output) and an Auxiliary track (for adding effects) which is also routed to the Stereo Output, when assigning a Track Stack, any selected tracks will stop being routed to the Stereo Output and will instead be sent to a new Auxiliary bus directly. You can still add Insert Effects at the Track Stack stage, or send sounds within a Track Stack to new Auxiliaries. I made this episode all about Track Stacks, so hopefully it will answer any questions. If not, let me know!: ua-cam.com/video/Rrp_Ax-ocNE/v-deo.html

Hi Jimmy. Great, that's what I like to hear! Very glad it was a productive breakfast.

Another excellent and very clear explanation of something I kind of take for granted without thinking too much about it! Now I understand it better!
That's great to hear - I'm so glad it provided some additional insight.
Fantastic explanation! You need to be more popular. You're very good. Thank you.
Thanks very much.
Mixing will be much easier now. Thanks for explaining the feature and how it works. Have a great day!
Many thanks, you too.
brilliant and cleare as always…Mr Jono…greetings from Italy
Thanks so much!
Excellent! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this perfectly clear!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching. New episodes on this channel every Wednesday.
Really helpful - as always. Thank you.
Thanks Andrew.
thanks for showing the track stack! ive been trying to find how do it but nobody showed really how they just explained what bussing is
Great! Glad it’s making sense now - thanks so much.
The best 👍🏻
Thanks Phil!
Thank you for this.
You're very welcome.

@@jonobuchananmusic Thanks, Jono. That hadn’t crossed my mind. I’ll investigate that feature. Thanks again.
