The passion in learning comes from the passion received from the teaching. Thank you so much for this. In years of using logic things finally make sense. I was blaming my creativity blockage on things I shouldn’t. I know understand it’s because I didn’t understand. Again, thank you so much
Thank you very much I've just started my own studio and it's very hard to learn Logic Pro I just found your video and you gave me lots of hope and confidence thank you again.
Thank you for sharing this! That's exactly why this channel exists. Your music matters and is worth sharing my friend - you'll get the hang of Logic Pro, don't give up! 👊🏻
As a metal guitarist and bassist who uses EZdrummer to program drum tracks and build songs entirely on my own this has been helpful for me writing some solo music along with demoing my band’s songs. I cringe sometimes when I see people using guitar effects without any knowledge about them and would have been great if you had explained some basis of the pedals you picked for beginners that don’t understand what certain effects do, as dialling in effects on pedals is an endless process but this video was great to start, particularly for people that are more into being a producer or solo artist producing their own music. Thank you for this!
Liam - truly appreciate your kind words and even sharing some feedback about the pedals! Nice call man - will dive into those details with future content 👊🏻 Stoked this helped you - have an awesome weekend!
Cool video, I like your enthusiasm! I message to every beginner (including me) who see this to know there are some things you can do faster or easier, such as there is tap tempo you can set up easily, so you can determine the tempo you want quick. Also to fast copy and paste a region there is either command + R or just press L and the selected region will be looped to infinity and then later you can also devide it to regions with ctrl L, easy ;)
Love your enthusiasm! Great to see such passion for the music. What else I like about you? You're not afraid to just TRY stuff! No need for perfection off the bat... just experiment. Great message. Subbed!
Yes yes and yes! I’ve written songs since I was 11 & I can hear the tunes in my head for them but am NOT musically talented in the music creation side & I feel overwhelmed by logic pro x so I haven’t done anything 😢 I really hope this video can sink in for me
@@bedroommusicproducer I’m useless I still open it up on my macbook & just stare at all the technicals 😀😆 I need to get on to it…I have so many songs to dooooo ahhhh
Great video. When you do multiple “takes” for the drum part on the same track, do you have to do anything so it doesn’t override the previous take? Meaning if you do your kick on one take and then go back to add snare, does the snare take overwrite the kick take? Thanks!
Hey Eric! Great question. So when punching in drum parts like this using a MIDI track the current take does NOT override the previous one. If this were an audio track, it'd be different. But with a virtual instrument on a MIDI track you're able to punch in notes at a time. Hope this helps! Happy creating 👊🏻
*subscribed, youre one of the best to describe it. youre genuinely passionate & happy! lol. thank you. I KNOW im going to be something/someone in the industry very soon.. can sing and write my ass off, but I am venturing down producing beats for my own original music, but a little overwhelmed, figured id just pay someone to produce for me, but why not give it a go? priceless , simple info here! thanks again*
At 5:17, i started to sing with your Dream dancer :-) Nice, love it,,, and at 19:46, my thoughts are: You are really great. Get ugly early; I like that. Your voice in your creation sounds simply fantastic. I want to sing with you sometime.
Youre a great teacher my dude! thank you for this. Im curious, for the bass you added, did you just take the bass notes from your lead synth or change it up a bit? couldnt quite tell.
Great video, one of the most helpful I’ve watched to help me actually DO something instead of staring at the screen. I followed along and did what you did and finally felt productive. Can I ask a question though? When I was recording the electronic drum pieces like you were, using the 808 flex kit, Logic was recording each kit piece as a new take and making me choose one, instead of layering all the pieces in the track, like it did on your video. Any ideas on how to fix that so that all the individually recorded kit pieces play back in that track like yours?
Love hearing you took ACTION Jillian! And be sure that one of the individual tracks is not selected. You'll want to select the "bus track" that all those individual ones link back to in order to record all parts at the same time!
I am grateful to you for these lessons! One question… I am using an older version of logic pro X and I can’t find the full range of instruments that you have described, for example, Celtic flutes et cetera! Is there a way of getting more of these instruments, or do I need to buy a newer version of logic pro X Thanks again for your sessions, Laurie (England)
Awesome question Laurie! Yes - the solution to this could be as simple as upgrading to the latest version of Logic Pro X. Do you know what version you're running right now? Cheers 👊🏻
Hey man! So I’m using a Nektar 49 key midi keyboard - and it’s USB, so with the Mac Mini model model I have (2018 version) it has a couple USB ports. So no adapter needed 🤙🏻
Sure! It’s a different album, more or less, depending on how much they changed things. For instance, ZZ Top did some radical remixes on their earlier albums, and older fans hated it. From their perspective, they were very different albums from the originals. I think if an album is remastered and/or remixed, it’ll tell the same story but (hopefully) better. Does Remaster and Remix Album tell the same story or Different story nathan?
Aha! Tis the great question… “chicken or the egg” right? I’ve found success with both approaches, but most of the time melody comes first for me. What about you??
@@bedroommusicproducer I really want to do melody first, but keep finding myself starting with some chords, which I find really constricting when trying to put a melody over them.
Have you ever listened to an entire album without skipping because it was just that good? What is the key to having a no-skip album, or playlist? The answer to that question is sequencing. Sequencing is what makes the songs into a story with a beginning and end, and gives it a special flow. When it comes to album sequencing a question that you should ask yourself is, what song should come first? What goes last? And what is in between? In this article, we will be answering all of the important questions of how to create a captivating sequence, how to fade and zoom out, and how to create a dream sequence. In your opinion grant why is album sequencing is a lost art?
Hey man! Unfortunately, no - Logic Pro is Apple only. Some good recommendations for PC would be something like Ableton Live Lite, Cubase LE or Fruity Loops free trial... you can simply follow the steps I'm taking here, and apply them to another DAW. Let me know if I can help further 👊🏻
I have a problem with making a 45 second track and just feel stuck. Like I don't know what direction I need to go once I establish a "beat or melody, etc".
You're not alone! Getting a sense of direction comes with time and practice, but reverse engineering the end song can help. Keep asking yourself, "what needs to be added, in order for the song in my head to be realized?" Are there vocals? Are there drums? What is the main instrument playing the dominate chord pattern? Keep experimenting, and narrowing your creative decisions down, while trying not to judge things too hard - especially at the initial creation stage! You've got this! Keep at it 👊🏻
Sorry but I need to know how you hook the midi keyboard to MacBook. I have a Yamaha midi keyboard with midi out and I have a bheringer box for input to MacBook thanks !
No worries! Is your MIDI keyboard using a USB cable? If so, you should just be able to plug right into the computer and bypass the Behringer interface!
It does have USB out. I didn't get a signal on my mac but I see in the yamaha manual I need to change some paramenters - thanks! @@bedroommusicproducer
The eye sees all! 🤣 Part 2 is currently being filmed and edited - I want to deliver super helpful content, and these in depth tutorials take some time! Thanks for being patient 👊🏻
Good question Luke! From my understanding, "music management" is a process and "managers" are people. The process of managing music is interacting with the music of the artist, but not necessarily the artist themself. While managers are interacting with the artist themself and not necessarily the files and data. Hope this helps!
In your own words why album sequencing important when recording a studio album 💿 and while listening to a song from beginning to end why every single listener should listen to the song from beginning to end from the very first song the very last song aka opening track and even the title track and the closing track of a song 🎵?
The “Choose a Project” menu? It only opens up when there’s no last project to open. So to change Logic’s default when opening, head to: Logic Pro -> Preferences -> General -> Project Handling Change "Startup Option" to "Ask"
