Your session looks like two soldiers chasing a 3 legged camel :p

1. Not knowing the difference between panning mono and stereo tracks. 2. Not using fades. 3. Setting recording levels too hot. 4. Not using Bounce in Place or Freeze to conserve CPU. 5. Not using sends, busses and auxes.

You are a good teacher. Not everyone has that gift.

Feels good that this was all old news to me. It should be, as I've been producing long enough, but you always get that sense of doubt when you see video titles like this. So this was validating for me, thanks.

I’m brand spankin’ new to Logic Pro X... & you are making my BRAIN HURT! Which is a GOOD THING! Man, there’s a LOT to LEARN about this stuff! Your instruction is both precise & concise! NO FLUFF! I expect to be spending some time BINGE Watching on your channel. Thanks for doing what you LOVE! I hope to be learning plenty here.

I haven't even gone through the first five minutes of this video and I can already discern that you're the guy I need to be tuned into...thanks for the great info and demonstration. I'm you're newest subscriber. Great tip regarding recording levels...I've always remembered from my early recording days years ago that 7 is your nominal, so hot tracks that are completely above this are definitely on their way into distortion if you don't watch/listen carefully...this has always saved me from pushing things into heavy distortion or clipping the signal. Just a rule of thumb.

Simple explanations with really relevant topics described with succinct clarity. Love it. Thank you! Well done. I'm a fan.

Only been six months and the last time I clicked on this I had no idea what you were talking about so I found a different video. Came back to it and realized I utilize all of these now.

Why am I just now finding this channel? You sir have just earned a new subscriber!

These are things I was familiar with but I just know I will get a LOT of value from this channel. Suscribed

So FREAKING HELPFUL. Thank you so much. I'm currently learning Logic Pro X as needed specifically to record my own album on my home setup (a specific goal of mine for the year) and this has saved me so much time and trouble. Thank you.

A great refresher course to see what older techniques still work and how they have evolved. Thank you!

You learn something new every day. Thank you!!!!

Great stuff Chris. This video definitely brings panning / stereo more into the light for me. Thanks for all you do to help producers and composers.

Ok dude. You got a sub with this one. That panning one was solid. Thank you. I thought the pans were weird but never thought to look. I feel dumb lol but now slightly smarter thanks to your info 👍👍😁

Wow... Thank you so much for this. I've been getting deep into logic for an orchestra project and you've explained all the cpu issues I've been having! Freeze and BIP will save me. I shed a little tear over the M1 Mac Mini I just bought to fix what was in fact a technique issue, but it'll still be great to have! Best channel I've seen for Logic Pro X. Easiest new sub ever. I appreciate your help. 👍

Wow you definitely have a gift for teaching. This account needs to go viral. I just subscribed. Thank you man!

that was awesome. been a logic user now for almost 10 years and i've always wondered why i get system overloads... THIS HELPED!! thank you for being a lifesaver

Brilliant! I am new to recording and the things mentioned, especially the aux and freezing tracks are vital!! Cheers fella! Hugh

Holy crap, bro - while every point in this is valuable (and things I do all the time ), your explanation for busses is the best I've ever heard - I'm stealing the tap analogy and using it to explain to others. Thanks so much for these super-instructive clips. Even an old dog like me is learning new tricks (and making better tracks because of it).

Good tutorial. Quick note, when you freeze a track, the next time you open the session, Logic Pro will not load the associated plugins for the frozen tracks. It will only load the temporary bounced version. When you unfreeze the track, it will load the plugins for the track at that moment.

been a Logic user since the Emagic days and while functionality obviously changes from update to update, I'd say I'm comfortable and familiar enough to figure things out as they change. but your "click zones" tip for the fade tool (also found the one for marquee when doing the search) just changed my whole life! new sub here, bud! THANK YOU!

This is the best Logic training video I have seen. I have been producing for 23 years and picked up some very bad habits. I have subscribed and will head over to your site. Thank you.

The phenomenon of recording hitting louder peaks after showing lower during level checking goes away once you turn off the metronome click. Somehow the metronome pushes the levels higher during recording.

Finally got how to easily create the aux sends. Thanks! The plumbing analogy was great!

simplest explanation of how busses and sends works ever, Why to use them was even simpler. Thanks

Super informative and helpful like always. No one does it better then my Sensei 🙏🏼 Thank you for your continuous and unconditional help Chris, “You Rule” 👏🏼

Great video.. well spoken and great points! Always good to go over the groundwork

thank you so much! the way you explained the bus and send was perfect.

Absolutely one of the best Logic channels. Great stuff. I knew most of this but great to remind 5 things to avoid.

A few things to mention: Logic has a setting to snap edits to zero crossings in the snap dropdown, I wish it was on by default. This prevents the pop by starting regions when they are at zero on the wave signal. But the fade does show some tlc ;) Also, regarding freezing tracks (essential) there is the pre fader mode in the inspector which only freezes the source and lets you continue to try out your effects. Good job! I just wanted to point out additions to what you were presenting. It’s such a great DAW. Thanks!

Great tips. Took me years to figure some of these out. This will save some peeps valuable time.

Excellent video, especially the first tip about stereo tracks.Thank you!!!!

Thank you for your intelligence and wisdom. You will know that the 'phenomenon' of the solo'ed musician is simply that when solo'ed, they are already outside of context.Perhaps either ask the musician to "play louder than you ever have" or soundcheck them whilst performing within the track? Many thanks for your valuable instruction.

Great vid, great talk. Straight to the point, easy to follow. Thanks.

That sink, pipe analogy! Genius!

thank you so much for this, im excited to watch your other videos! great work

I didn't know how sends and buses worked, so this was super helpful! Thanks so much.

Excellent Video, Clear and Concise, Definitely Subscribing!

Incredibly easy to follow and eye opening stuff. Professional too! I subscribed. Gonna watch all your stuff!! Thanks so much you’ve already helped me a ton

Thank You! I love using bus channels but did not know about the pan effects

HEY CHRIS ! THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS ! THEY ARE THE BEST !

This is very obviously an amazing resource. Great work here.

reason for the people playing way louder than soundcheck: they want to hear the acoustic sound of the drums/guitars/etc. some of my clients talk really loudly when they put headphones on when checking my mixes...sometimes that can scare me a little bit hahah

finally understand busses and sends now thanks to your plumbing theory! thank you so much :)

Another intuitive lesson, thank you, makes we want to explore logic thoroughly

Anyone else just wanted him to press play?

the stereo mono panning very helpful!

Super Helpful! Thanks!

Thanks for the lesson!

Awesome content man, subbed and telling friends ✊🏽

Excellent presentation. Thank you.

Very helpful video and great to see the word flub being used.

I’m so guilty of not using buss. I use the same plugin on numerous channels. It just happens gradually and the next thing I notice the repetitive plugins. Thanks Chris for the reminders and again on the panning.

Thank you - years have passed and I was still guilty. So clear and friendly.

Your videos are amazing and so helpful

yo the pan trick was amazing I can't believe I didn't know that

I am new to Logic Pro 10. I was a previous Pro Tools user for Four years. When I was a student learning Pro tools the software was inexpensive. No longer a student the price went up significantly. I record music as a hobby and have Apple Mac mini, which I love. I am currently using the free trial version For 90 days. I only had Logic Pro X for a few days and I am totally sold? The virtual instruments are so close to the real sound. I will be a avid subscriber from now on.

You’re an excellent speaker. I don’t think you stumbled your words even once. Valid topics as well. One pet peeve of my own is keeping your project files clean and organized. This includes properly labeling and color coordinating your tracks and regions. Utilizing track stacks is also crucial. Achieve all of this without losing any time by creating templates, as well.

Hi. Very informative and easy to understand tutorials. I liked and subscribed your channel. Thanks.

Great video. I'm subscribing for sure!

thanks for the video dude !

Hell ya! I'm already doing all the things you suggest in this video! Feels good haha

Thank You, most of these tips, i was aware of, but the explanations for each one is dope. 💯💯

This CHANNEL IS FIRE!! THANKS BRO!! GREAT CONTENT!!

Handy info, well explaned, thanks!

Very useful stuff. Cheers

Good tutoring, learned a lot. Thanks.

Great video! Thanks for the tips. I've been guilty of a couple of these...

Thank you again for such critical advice. Keep up your great work!

2:06 "Mono means One, Rail means Rail" I'm sure I'm not the only person who thought of that!

Thank you for this! Liked & Subbed.

You're legend.. been guilty of pretty much all of these xD

Simply explained and very illuminating. Thanks! Subscribed!

Snap at zero crossings setting works with pops pretty well but fades are smoother musically

Great video. Thank you.

great stuff thank you

Great tutorial! Thank you

Dude, you’re very informative I really love logic now. Thanks.

Another one! Thank you Buddy!

I’m happy I have barely used reverbs or delays up until this point. Will always keep the wet at like 20% max lol

Glad to find your channel!

Great info! Thank you...

great job Lars!!

Great videos trying to catch up

💯 All good stuff!!

Question! When you are panning a track with stereo effects, does the same rule apply? Or only when that track is itself stereo? Thanks, great pointers!

Thank you so much for your tips :)

Thank you!

Yeah man! All great points! Thanks!

Thank u so much ❤️🙏

Studio one 4 pro is the best with chord track etc. Great vid for logic guys keep up great work on ur vids.👍

Excellent tutorial!

awesome Sir... great intel, newbie too Logic so mucho helpful-o!

Very good short video! I make most of those mistakes... Thank you

great video!

I really like that Apple added the stereo pan feature to the pan knobs, but I still like the Direction Mixer better, as it's easier to control and deal with visually than the small pan knobs . I wish the pan knobs could turn into a mini Direction Mixer appearance in place of the pan knob.

Very useful video. Thanks for that.

Amazing content!, very informative. I have a question... i have noticed when i’m working on big sessions that the “freeze” function actually consumes more CPU than bouncing everything in place. Do you know why this happen?. It is supposed to be kinda same right?

I would have said in stereo a drum has toms snare hi-hat on one side then as you pan has other toms and cymbals on the other side. If in Mono it is all coming out both sides so you can pan everything to left or right but in stereo, panning will lose the drums on one side or the other. Would have halved the first point and new people could hear it straight away.
