Excellent! Thank you for the kind words. I was in exactly your situation not so long ago. The purpose of the channel is just what you’re talking about, helping people get beyond the surface level and dig into the pro features!

That is a great compliment and good news! I’m glad it was helpful for you!

Success! Thank you for the kind words.

That is definitely one of the highest compliments I’ve received here. Thank you for taking the time to write such encouraging words! I will try to live up to them.

Wow that is great to hear! I really appreciate the words of encouragement. Thank you for watching!

Excellent! I wish you the best of luck mixing!

That is a great compliment! Thanks for watching!

I love hearting that! Thanks for sharing!

I’m glad you found it useful! Thank you for the kind words!

That is music to my ears! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment!

💪🏻that’s what I like to hear! Routing changed my whole life in Logic. Happy mixing!

I really appreciate that! Thanks so much for watching!

You rock! I really appreciate you saying so. Comments like that keep me making videos. salute friend!

@@SojournerTracks gotta show love when the tutorials are proper. And when I looked yours was the best and most detailed. Applied what you said immediately. Im a Pro-tools Dude since early 2000s so now Im converting to Logic. Thanks to you, I can count on someone who know his sh*t. :-)

I actually have a question. How do you control the Buss Volume for Indiv Tracks? I grouped 4 snares but dont want the same Bus reverb Volume on All.

For that I would actually create what I call an FX track (aux) specifically for your reverb. Then you can use the sends on each track to send as much or as little as you like: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sK93icel3MveYIU.html

@@SojournerTracks Thanks Bro!

I really appreciate the kind words and the sub. It keeps me going!

I’m so glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching!

Many thanks!!

Thanks very much!

Awesome ! Thanks for watching!

Great question Margaret! Thanks for watching. The terms are very interchangeable and therefore confusing. - A track group (accessed by the group button in the mixer window) is for editing audio together like time adjusting multiple drum tracks at all once. - an aux group uses routing (buses) to connect tracks together for the purpose of mixing and effects (and yes you can apply plugins to all the included tracks at once on the aux channel, and also still apply effects on the individual tracks). - a track stack is just a fancy aux group. The routing is the same but Logic sets it up for you with the added benefit of that little drop down stack in the arrangement window. The stack header is the aux track where you can apply effects to all included tracks at once. As someone who doesn’t do much editing of live drums, I hardly ever use track groups. However I couldn’t live without aux/bus routing! Hopefully that helps!

Great question! Yes. I generally save bussing for what would be considered more “wet” fx like delays and reverbs(but certainly not limited to that), I will put more core fx like eq, compression, and tuning directly on the track. Keep in mind that bussing creates a copy of the signal for processing so if you were to do your tuning on an aux track you would leave the original signal unaffected.

I’m so glad to hear that! Good to have you along. Guitar Rig is taking place of a physical amp and cab. It can be helpful to think of it that way as you set up your chain. It should be the first thing your guitar signal hits (just like it would a real amp). I would place it directly on your guitar track in the very first slot. Of course you can set it up on a bus if you like. That will mean that you have a clean DI signal and a parallel amp model signal. I have seen people use that DI signal to blend with their amp tone but that’s a little too fancy for me :)

@@SojournerTracks thanks very much for the advice. Good luck with everything.

Thanks! There are a couple ways: you can reset the output routing to “stereo out”. If it’s routing in a “track stack”, you can just click and drag the track out of the group in the main arrangement window.

@@SojournerTracks thanks so much!

Thanks for the question! So there are instrument groups using combined routing (like described here) and then there are editing groups. The latter sounds like what you have going on. In the mixer window, between “output” and “automation” should be a “group” tab. Tracks assigned to these groups will following editing together - flex, trim, gain etc. Check that group tab for the tracks in question.

You can pan each track individually inside the stack and also then pan the whole stack on the aux track. It may be counter productive if you try to hard pan the stack but the instrument channels are panned opposite but it just kinda depends on what you’re trying to do.

It’s hard to say without seeing your setup. Are you monitoring through plugins? Is software monitoring enabled? Or low latency mode? Are you set to direct monitoring on your interface? Will the bass track record audio even though you can’t hear it? Hopefully one of those things gets you started in the right direction!

@@SojournerTracks Thank you for your quick reply. Software monitoring enabled... that is indeed the correct setting. Now I can hear every element of the playback at any volume I want and also listen to the track I am recording. I hadn't really thought about that setting.Thanks a lot an greetings from Hamburg, Germany.

So glad to hear that! Happy tracking! Cheers from Illinois, USA

I’m so happy to hear that it’s working for you! Thanks for watching!

I heard it has something to do with MIDI and needing to equal 127. But either way it’s a minute difference. I wouldn’t worry about trying to be that precise with hard pans.

When you say the panning is lost what do you mean? Do the pan knobs reset to the center are you unable to pan the individual tracks?

The pan knobs do not reset. They’re fully panned left/right but If I solo each track you can hear them out of both speakers. Aux track output that they’re bussed to has output set to stereo-out. Thanks for the help!

If you mute one side, say left can you hear the other side in the right? Try applying a really obvious effect on one side and see if it only shows up in one channel or both.

So you’re sending all your tracks to a group track before it goes to the stereo out? If I’m understanding the question correctly, that would not get in the way of creating subgroups or side chains. All of the routing options would still be available to you, you would just need to route the outputs back to your output bus as they will default to the stereo out. Hopefully that helps 🤷‍♂️. Thanks for watching!

@@SojournerTracks thank you ! So do I just create another bus? Or another output as that slot is already being used?

Yeah for example: if right now your vocals output directly to your output bus, create a new aux(bus) send all of your vocals to that new aux, then set the output of your new aux to your output bus.

@@SojournerTracks thank you so much!

You bet! Happy music making!

😆😆😆😊

Actually it does now! I think they finally changed that with 10.7

@@SojournerTracks wow 😂
