  Nudge Region/Event Position Right by 1 ms

Little timing changes are so handy to have under your fingertips. We’ve been near this command before.

Serious editing makes me keep the toolbar visible.

  Octave 5

Change the step input keyboard focus to Octave 5. Not much call for that if the keyboard is showing on the display. Far more likely to use the shift octave commands.

Octave - 2  Shift-Z


 


Octave - 1  Z


 


Octave + 1  X


 


Octave + 2  Shift-X

Use step input recording techniques — Logic Pro X:

Step input allows you to insert MIDI notes when you’re not recording in real time. You can use step input to create note runs that may be too fast for you to play or to replicate sheet music that’s too difficult for you to play.

  Region Automation: Control Change 25

Set the region automation to CC25. With automation being displayed (press ‘A’ on the keyboard) you will typically see “Track” automation. Click on the “Track” button to change to region. There is also an on/off control button as well.

I am not sure of what “Region Automation” is all about. Ahh. Now it makes sense. Sound in space over time. A remarkably complex programming space. I simply need to re-think my programming methods. Parallel programs with function calls tied to time points as opposed to simply being interrupt driven. I need to meditate.

Show automation curves — Logic Pro X:

Before you can add automation points to a track’s automation curves, you need to show the automation curves. Automation curves are displayed as colored curves and points on top of audio and MIDI regions across the track, running the length of the project. You can choose whether to view and edit automation across the track (track-based automation) or only within the track’s regions (region-based automation).

  New Chord Memorizer

In the environment. This is a good place to lose a few hours some morning. Put a Chord Memorizer into the path and play with it.

Chord memorizer objects overview — Logic Pro X:

The easiest way to use a chord memorizer is to connect its output to the instrument that you want to play the chords through, and assign it to a track. You can, of course, place it anywhere else in the MIDI signal path.
