I have the apollo twin x. All I did was connect the USB c from interface to computer, then went to logic pro audio setting and selected the apollo tab, hit apply, and it worked.
Thank you! I am trying to figure this out for my software drumkits/synth. This is exactly how I have routed everything when tracking vocals/line inst. For my software instruments I route the Instruments to Virtual Inputs and use the processing from UAD Console to monitor. As prescribed in the Manual. However, my first preference would be to use the Verb from the bus send within logic itself with low latency mode on. Is this possible at all? Thank you! P.S When I enable Low Latency mode the bus send gets disabled.
UA is terrible w customer service literally no help w a person which I find so unbelievable at their price, We are all just out there on our own so nice to have someone explain, Thank you
Very good video..... I have a Apollo 8 & an Apollo Twin. I tried to follow through but I can't hear my pre-roll. I can hear the playback but when I record... I can not hear up to the punch in spot. Please help.
Thanks for this post…but…at 1:23 you already have the outputs routed to the UA console Virtual 1/2…I cannot find where to set that up. So I cannot follow along with the video after that…Logic Pro and UA console don’t seem to be easy to integrate. Maybe Luna would work better, but the ramp-up to learn a completely new DAW….:-(
With just the satellite, you won’t be able to use Unison. So, record your vocals with your BabyFace as you normally would. If that includes the use of any real time plug-ins while monitoring, you can use the UA plug-ins the same as you would use any others. Then add your UA plug-ins after when you are mixing. The satellite is basically a big dongle that enables use of the UA plug-ins, using its internal dsp. There’s no special functionality on it for monitoring while recording.
Why is it that my cue outputs and console look entirely different from what’s presented here? I’m trying to follow along but it makes it a little difficult when the settings don’t appear to be the same even remotely. It also doesn’t give me an option to put anything in the sends.
Thanks for the video. I'm new to Logic and new to UA interfaces. Here's the issue I'm facing. When I punch in, I can hear both the original take and the punch take. Would you happen to have any suggestions on how to hear the recorded track and then switch to input on punch-in?
IMPORTANT: For smooth audio punch in and outs on the fly, three things: 1) Make sure you actually record-enable the track (don't just rely on automatic arming, push the red R button); 2) make sure you've hit PLAY first, then RECORD... otherwise you'll get audio delays when you toggle in and out of record; 3) confirm your Preference settings: Software monitoring checked; Input monitoring only for focused track UN-checked; Independent monitoring level checked. Logic is finicky... not having these settings correct will lead to tears and embarrassment. ;^)
Seems really complicated with all the submixes. I just wanna hear my instruments when I play them, the control room mix goes to the phones and its simple. I can't even hear instruments when I play them. I see them in logo and console master out. There HAS to be a much easier way to explain this
very insightfull, thanks. Do you take requests? I'm strugling with the setup of my apollo and logic pro x. Cant wrap my head around the way I should setup my external outputs.
Well I was wondering how to audition channel strips in logic when I am recording. It looks like this would work, but so much more complicated than using my old budget interface. Thanks for the explanation.
I just recently purchased an Apollo twin and neumann 102 to upgrade my studio, and as soon as everything was set up and I got to recording I noticed I have to do a selection based processing and normalize the vocal I recorded just to hear it otherwise the audio file looks flat and you won’t hear anything, any tips?
Hey Eli! I have a UA Arrow and am trying to figure out how to use logic plugins without having software monitoring enabled. Do you have any idea on this?
SO do you use a virtual channel in console to receive your stereo out from Logic? Or am I missing something...SO you have your cue mixes from actual headphone sends in logic plus your separate main out to console....?
Yes to your first question, but instead of just sending the entire stereo output mix from Logic to Console, he made a separate stereo bus channel in Logic. He then sends that stereo bus signal to Console. So the stereo bus output is separate from your main mix stereo output. (BTW - The stereo channel you are receiving this stereo signal in Console with doesn't have to be the Virtual 1/2, can be any stereo linked channel. That's just what he chose for this example or how he does it.) With the stereo bus channel in Logic, you then get to decide which tracks (in Logic) you put sends on and send to this stereo bus. This allows you to keep your overall mix levels where they are at (which is what you hear coming out your control room monitors) and send partial signal levels to the stereo bus creating a totally separate and different headphone mix which is only to be heard by the talent. Hope this helps.
Question How do you have your Mackie mixer hooked up to the UA Apollo interface. Can u explain, and also how did you that clean sounding recording on your intro. What did u use thank u please reply.
while the singer is hearing playback of the track they are about to punch into are they also hearing their open mic? or does the open mic input stay muted until the punch in is engaged?
@@elikrantzberg Thanks for the reply. my real question is this.. is it possible with the setup you have in the video to do a" tape" style punch in, where the singer hears only playback of the track they are punching into (and not the open mic input in console) and then when punched in, they hear themselves with zero latency? thanks again!
When do you raise the level of the cue send vs the preamp when the performer wants to hear himself/herself louder in the cue mix? Both would achieve the same thing so why would you raise the preamp instead?
You raise the preamp to get more recording level. Raising the cue mix does not affect the recording level. It only affects the level the input signal is monitored at. Not the level it is recorded at.
@@elikrantzberg Thank you for the prompt answer. I'm just starting with Console so I'm still learning it. For example, is there a reason you would rather record your reverb in Logic? I have found the insert effect print wet and dry function and the associated routing to be unreliable. If I have the output of a DAW track going to a virtual input for AUX processing in Console (with reverb plugin at 100% wet) and then the corresponding virtual output going back to a DAW track input, when I set to print wet the recording yields a dry signal. Can't understand what I'm doing wrong.
@@tellitlikeitis8691 I don’t understand why you would want to route your DAW track back into Console just to get processed with UA reverb there. Why not just use the UA reverb as a plug-in right in your DAW? You don’t need Console at that point. If you are talking about tracking (recording) with reverb and printing the reverb to a separate track, you set that effects send routing up all in Console. There’s still no need to route from the DAW back into Console for the reverb.
@@elikrantzberg In the console manual the case use is outlined for adding UAD processing to a virtual instrument track as a way of saving on resources due to the printing. You send the instrument track for processing in console and then print the effect back in Logic. I just figured out it was my own routing mistake. I agree there are better ways of doing this I'm just getting familiar with the manual. Thanks for the help you got a subscriber!

Damn I just wanna make music 🎶😂.
Ong I feel you😂
Note: you need to select advanced in Logic in order for many of the settings that he mentioned. This took awhile for me to figure out
I just want to know how to start recording in logic using the apollo twin😭
I feel ya pain..I just bought the apollo x16 & x8 and now I'm binge watching ua videos lol
bruh!!! he started in the deep in bring it back to part 1 we on level 30 fuck lol
@@2011phill what?
I have the apollo twin x. All I did was connect the USB c from interface to computer, then went to logic pro audio setting and selected the apollo tab, hit apply, and it worked.
Me too! So confusing! I can record instruments, but not mic input tracks. Doesn't record in logic. Just a blank red line.
I am so confused my mics plugged in but nothings happening
Super. Thanx Eli. Logic/UA def has a learning curve, and your vids are a big help. Next up, talkback set up.

Thanks for the video, however I found it very hard to understand. I think the problem was too much talking with absolutely no excitement
thx for the video ... but as a beginner with UAD and Logic i can´t follow :-(
Great Job...Very concise and thurough explanation...He should be in charge of U.A. video tutorial department.
UA is terrible w customer service literally no help w a person which I find so unbelievable at their price, We are all just out there on our own so nice to have someone explain, Thank you
Going to have to watch this a few more times. Great stuff man
Same here, a lot to take in 😂🙏
im lost
I found the constant "he or she" thing to be quite hysterical
Hi, Eli Krantzberg, Thank you for dong the video - But I think if we are going to get the concepts using diagrams would help this!
Very good video..... I have a Apollo 8 & an Apollo Twin. I tried to follow through but I can't hear my pre-roll. I can hear the playback but when I record... I can not hear up to the punch in spot. Please help.
Under the main record menu, make sure that auto input monitoring is unchecked. This should hopefully be the soloution to your problem.

Very thorough teaching! Good stuff! Thank you for this, Eli.
Thank you for this, its better than the UAD explanation video. whats the benefit of mixing totally in console?

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by setting up your external outputs. Can you elaborate?
Eli Krantzberg i allready sent you a facebook message, hope i can explain myself a bit better.
OMG...I'm lost in too many irrelevant explanations!
what if you have mixbus processing while you track w logic? how do you monitor through that mixbus and not the console's monitoring?
Well I was wondering how to audition channel strips in logic when I am recording. It looks like this would work, but so much more complicated than using my old budget interface. Thanks for the explanation.
Im having the same problem this video is thorough but im still lost guess im slow
When i audition them i get lag
Yeah, the whole no-lag thing is a tradeoff with not actually being able to hear what's being recorded.
Still a great & useful video in 2024❗️
Thanks Eli. Very helpful and clearly explained.
Great

Boost the preamp level before recording.
Proper tutorial. Good work.
Hey Eli!
