If anyone could help me solve this most basic of problems -I will be unutterably grateful!!
I have had Logic Express 7 for a while now (upgraded to 8 last week -but my emac G4 just cannot cope with that). The problem is that I have no idea how to edit -i.e I don't know how I would go about recording -say - 8 bars of an instrument -save that -and then record another 8 bars on a seperate "take" -on the same track with the same instrument. I have more or less been using logic as a glorified analogue 8 track. I think I could "blag" performing sections by using the loop record function -although I haven't tested that out yet. Secondly -if someone was kind enough to help me with this -I have still not figured out how to get a "count In" -from any part of the song apart from Bar 1. Help me solve this and you will make my year. Best wishes Phil x |

Thx for that G doubleyou -cheers and I will try that tonight.
I presently know how to record either real or virtual instruments onto Logic. What i cannot do is -say record 16 bars --lets say an intro and a verse of a bass (real or software instrument) -then save that or contain in within a region -and then start again at bar 17 working on or recording say a chorus of 8 bars -savin that and then moving on to bar 25 with both into-verse -chorus all saved and safe -and recording the second verse. After months of trying -I just havent figured out how to do it. I"m sure it's a basic skill and an essential part of sequencing -but it remains a mystery to me. I'm more of an old skool musician -and not computer savvy at all . Any more advice? Sorry for being so thick about this. Best wishes Phil x |
