Thank you very much for clear and concise instructions. And no self promoting waffle like a lot of nerds into these sort of tutorials indulge in. Very professional . From Australia - many thanks.
I’m running out of accolades! It just keeps getting better. There’s no way I, and I think most of us, could find all this on our own. Thank you again, Gianni 🌟
I had been trying to figure out how to use the sequencer for pitched instruments, so this is perfect. I couldn't find it explained elsewhere because everyone using the Logic sequencer seems to focus on making beats. Thanks.
In this video, I demonstrate the following: 1. How to set up the step sequencer for pitch instruments, like bass, chords, or leads 2. How to change the key in step sequencer 3. How to load pattern presets in step sequencer 4. How to use the Tie and Octave edit modes 5. How to use the step sequencer to assist in creating chord progressions 6. How to apply swing in the step sequencer Support the sponsor of this video, Boombox | bit.ly/boomboxsponsor For mixing/mastering work, contact me at my website | carneymediagroup.com Follow MusicTechHelpGuy on Instagram | instagram.com/musictechhelpguy Support the channel on Patreon | patreon.com/musictechhelpguy Demo project used in this video | www.logicproguide.com/downloads #logicpro #logicprox #tutorial Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction 0:54 Step Sequencer Pitch/Key Setup 3:30 Transpose Rows 4:12 Bassline + Tie Edit Mode 5:57 Add Pitch Rows 7:18 Octave Edit Mode 8:49 Chord Progressions 12:45 Swing Pattern
Thank you for all that you do! i'm very grateful you decided to update your tutorials.... Just like back then, you're helping me now! I appreciate you!
Thanks for showing how useful the step sequencer has become. I was sticking with the old way but I am now encouraged to take advantage of this new work flow.
Well, the last two video contents are new to me and it‘ll take me a lot of time to learn and deal with. But I think I should. Cool video anyway. Josh is a great expert on Logic. 👍🏻💪🏻🙏🏻
I just watched this and the video before on drum sequences. Very helpful but I do have one question. Is there a way to change instrumentation if I want to test a different drum kit but my sequencer is already programmed? I see how to change an individual row but not the whole instrument. Really appreciate it!! You’ve gained a subscriber!
You have really good teacher skills, repeating the important stuff at the beginning and the end of the explanation. I'm eager to start using these tools! Thanks for your amazing channel..
Hi Josh, Me again. I was wondering if you can “slide” or pitch a continuous note/chord, say for instance as a guitar sliding up the neck or a violin? If so will you have that in any of the up coming videos? Thanks, Gianni
fantastic video josh! From these 2 videos, it seems like the Step Sequencer provides faster workflow than the piano roll editor, and therefore there isn't much use for the piano editor. What situations would you use the step sequencer in, and what situations for the piano roll editor?
Oh, there are plenty of uses for the Piano Roll editor. I actually use piano roll more than I use step sequencer. Here are a few use cases where I typically go straight to the piano roll: (1) If I record MIDI with my MIDI controller, it automatically creates a MIDI regions, not pattern regions. (2) If I'm recording/programming a MIDI sequence where I want subtle note positions, like notes that are not perfectly quantized to the grid. Things like piano and orchestral instruments, I often will program the sequences with some natural rubato (push and pull in the tempo). (3) Any time I'm working with long chord progressions, or more complex chords that are not 100% diatonic, I'll opt for the piano roll editor instead. (4) Acoustic drum patterns -- I find programming acoustic drum patterns in step sequencer a bit robotic. Although, I might start the pattern in the SS, but then convert to MIDI to add a bit of humanization. (5) Programming continuous controller effects and writing CC automation. You can do it in SS, but it's just not very easy to do. I'm sure I can list more, but those are 5 that come to mind.
Thanks! This playlist has been great! And it's up to date! Glad you were able to learn more about Logic from all those lessons I gave you........................... 🤣😂
I downloaded the project but I'm a little confused. There is something called ScreenFlowDocument.dat, thumbnail.jpg, version.plist and a Media folder with 3 aiff files and 9 files ending iin .scc. Have I done something wrong as I expected a template with the stuff you showed in the video? Thanks.

the best channel for Logic Pro thanks and keep doing its we love your job
Your tutorials are so clear and thorough. Thank you.
I have searched all of TH-cam twice and finally I found what I was looking for! Thank you sir!!!

Wow, the swing setting is really a game-changer, made the whole thing more trip-hoppy!
BRLLIANT THANKS
Great didactic skills! And such a humble guy - doesn't talk about his Patreon all the time. So instead I do: Please support him on Patreon! 🙌
Very informative. Learned a lot from the potential of Logic's sequencer.
That was great thank you
Always been loving you, thanks
This is really excellent,so good
Great tutorial! Thanks!
Very useful tutorial, thanks!
This was helpful. Dig the sound, reminds me of a video game soundtrack
Awesome! Thank you for these instructional videos
Can we live record in to the sequencer? Great vids, thnx

Very useful videos
fantastic! very useful video. thanks,
THanks again... awesome tutorial :))
And, Thank you again.

wondering same thing, but also could you make your own drum kit by tossing in audio sample of drums?
Great Video!!!!!!
Is there a way to manage swing globally or on multiple tracks / across instruments all at once?
You have really good teacher skills, repeating the important stuff at the beginning and the end of the explanation. I'm eager to start using these tools! Thanks for your amazing channel..

😍😍😍I am your fan thx ☺️
When I open the files in my version of Logic 10.7.9, my sequencer reads "On/Off" where yours reads "Step On/Off. Why is that? Thanks
How hugeeee is this ❤❤❤

I think I accidentally linked the wrong file. I've fixed it, so it should work now. we.tl/t-W1FmVh55fD

I hope Apple is paying you for these.
I’m not 100% sure I’d call that an 1/8th note drum beat. To me it’s more like a half-time 16th note groove.
Are they not the same? Two 16ths combined are an 8th note.
I think it’s in my internal counting. “1 e and ah” sounds more appropriate than “1 & 2 &”. Might just be a drummer thing! ;)
WHY did I purchase a Polyend Play? 🤦♂️ I think Apple should develop a hardware device for step sequencing
