You can also customise your top control bar to have a 'Low Latency Mode' button, which is super super helpful! Natural instinct for me now, to turn it on any time I'm recording, and turn it off as soon as I'm done.

@stewartkeyes2511 Жыл бұрын

That is much faster than going into settings. However you lose all your plugins...

@leonbounds Жыл бұрын

@@stewartkeyes2511 Yeah, I know, but you'd only use it during recording so that isn't too bad. And if you watch the video, he talks about it. He's the one that suggests turning Low-Latency on and off for recordings. I'm just saying there's a way to make the process easier.

Wow, really? That's awesome! I was just about to comment saying how I wish they made the LLM button more accessible like Cubase. Wish granted.😄

How did u do this?

@leonbounds 11 ай бұрын

@@InspiringgrowthIG 1. Right click the top Control Bar (where the tempo and play buttons are) 2. Select 'Customise Control Bar and Display' 3. In the fourth and final column, select 'Low Latency Mode'. 4. Click 'Set as Default' for this button to appear on all future projects as well

This was probably the most useful bit of Logic Pro advice I have watched. The explanations were clear and the pacing was really helpful. Hopefully this will solve recording issues in Logic Pro 9 which I’m still on.

This series is amazing! Thank you Chris!

@budgetguitaristcom Жыл бұрын

Another great video. My approach is to use an Apollo Solo and monitor directly from that while I record. Works amazing, but not the cheapest solution. Logic on my computer does not like really low buffer sizes, but that might be because of my love for Alchemy...

Thank you so much for this info! All of a sudden a latency issue came up when i was recording vocals and it was impossible to record them. Simply checking the low latency mode fixed the issue! I use an apollo twin and can monitor from that but I like to monitor from Logic mostly so i can hear the vocal chain i use there. Thank you for sharing this info so we don't go INSANE!

I need to get an adapter to connect my midi controller directly to my MacBook; I’ve been using the connection I have to connect to my iPad and then I use Logic Remote to make it usable, but that’s technically a wifi connection from the iPad to the MacBook, and it definitely has latency

@ervinfurman8880 2 ай бұрын

I pulled my hair out a little bit I figured it out in my case. May work also for the community. Put the samples all the way down to 5000 and buffer size on 512 and that solved my delay problem fast‼️🎯

Do you have a video that explains how to avoid latency when using the I/O plugin? I have no problems with latency when recording regular tracks, but I can't get around the latency when I use the I/O plugin.

Hey love your channel and that series Just one small question How is that we can here the guitar input from logic but the I button (input monitor) is off?

@jazzybeeff 4 ай бұрын

Beacuse he is recording. You can hear the signal when you recording if even ‘I’ button is off.

@imnotfishing Жыл бұрын

Love your channel. I’ve been dealing with a latency issue on my MacBook, where mid session my latency will go from acceptable to three seconds. If I restart the program it’s back to normal, but it keeps jumping to the super high latency. I have not been able to find a solution or anyone else experiencing this over the last two years. Any ideas what might be causing my latency to increase spontaneously in mid session?

Hey Chris and anyone who care to share input - I got a new macbook pro last Year - 14in Macbook pro - 4 TB - 32gigs of Ram - 12core CPU-19core GPU Shouldn't I be able to record a vocalist with effects like a Stock eq - antares auto-tune set to low latency mode and a bus to a reverb-- all with no latency? Whats a work around to recording an artist with little to no latency while they're hearing themselves with effects?

If your interface supports direct monitoring with no latency. They why would you ever monitor through logic?

what do you do when it is pitched down too?

@bubblevest1544 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for your help. Does anyone know why, when I record my midi , it plays back either a 1/2 step down or kinda wonky. I’ve checked if it’s pitched in the software and if my keyboard is set properly and they are both where they need to be. I’m not sure why it happens, when playing live it’s fine. Any suggestions, I’ve googled but no help

If you set the buffer size too small and experience clicks/pops, do the clicks/pops persist into the recording? If yes, how do you know how to toe the line between an optimal buffer setting for low latency and 0% risk of clicks & pops?

@jeowhi Жыл бұрын

yes the clicks/pops will stay in the audio if you recorded at too low of a buffer size. 128 is the sweet spot i find for latency/ preventing clicks and pops!

@juliannortoft4917 Жыл бұрын

What determines if your system can handle a low buffer size, or plugins, or both? The computer's processor? Something else? So is there any guideline to optimal computer specs to help with trouble-free recording?

@joshhighlights3310 7 ай бұрын

Computer processor for sure. Logic and others daw they use more the processor than the ram. That’s why you need to have a power good processor that can handle plugins and a lot of ram
