Jumpstart Logic Pro 10.6

By: Jay Asher

Overview of this book

Logic Pro is Apple’s flagship application for music creation, found in many professional music studios across the globe. It is a powerful digital audio workstation that comes with all the software tools that you need to create music that sounds great. In the previous version, Logic Pro 10.5, Apple had added impressive features to what was already a full package of tools, loops, FX plug-ins, and software instruments. Providing a comprehensive introduction if you’re new to Mac computer music creation, this practical guide will show you how to use Logic Pro and have you up to speed in no time. You’ll not only understand what Apple’s Logic Pro software can do but also get hands-on with using it to accomplish various musical tasks. The book starts by getting you up and running with the basic terminologies. As you progress, you’ll explore how to create audio and MIDI musical parts. To build on your knowledge further, the book will guide you through developing an automated mix. In addition to this, you’ll learn how to bounce mixes and audio files for distribution. By the end of this book, you’ll be well-versed with Logic Pro and have the skills you need to create professional-quality music.

Summary

In this chapter, we covered all the file formats available for bouncing, as well as other options. We mentioned the information for exporting tracks, which was discussed in Chapter 12, Getting the Arrangement Right, and ended with a discussion of mastering and what I like to refer to as pre-mastering.

I hope you will find this book helpful as you begin your relationship with Logic Pro. As with all good relationships, it requires a substantial investment in time and real commitment, but the rewards are really great!

Logic Pro is incredibly deep, and new features are being constantly added, so it grows even deeper. I have been using Logic since 1.0 in 1993, and I am still constantly learning more about it in my daily work.

Good luck, and have fun with Logic Pro.
