Hi, I was wondering if anybody could help me here.

I am a semi professional singer songwriter with a new album.

I recently purchased Logic Express 7.0 after cutting my teeth with Garageband, and think its great.

I am slowly working my way around the program and have already finished one song.

However my next project has a difficult syncopated rhythm guitar part throughout and after a dozen or so takes I manged to get a half decent cut.

I understand there is quantization in Logic and have used this with some success in garageband. However for the life of me I can't find it anywhere despite reading and re-reading the manual.

It says there is a Q button in the peripherals, but it's not there. On some midi and instrument tracks a Quantization menu appears at the top of the peripherals window but not in an audio region. As for the Q button I just can't find it.

Also, after successfully mixing a song in the mixer then adding some manual fades at the end makes it sems impossible to re-adjust the sound again, without it reverting to a fixed automated volume. I have to clear all automation info and start again.

Whew, it's a learning curve alright but it is brilliant.

Any experts out there I would love to hear from you.

Regards

Nigel

Following your post, Adrian, I looked up "Creative Sequencing Techniques for Audio Production" by Andrea Pejrolo, and bought it!
I've only skimmed through it as yet but it's very easy to read, and covers a wide area of concerns to digital sequencing and recording. Thoughout the book it compares similar functions in the most common(?) four sequencer packages(a nice idea) and starts with the studio set-up - and ends with the final mix.
What a great little book!!

PS Andrea, can I have a discount on your next release!!!!!
