Hello, I'm running version OSX 10.6.4 and interested in LogicPro9 and LogicExpress9. I'm a beginner in both of them but a very experienced musician and a saxophonist. Interested in running my own home studio. Open to any ideas about their differences and similarities and the ease of recording and producing music, I like jazz and Afro music but also open to all other interesting genres. Thanks!

Hi,
My Name is Frank, and I've used MacProVideo once before, but it's been a while. I just got the month of streaming, so I hope to be getting back to enjoying writing some music and learning more about other software ASAP. I'm running Logic Pro 8 and Mac OS/X 10.6.8.
When I used MacProVideo a few years ago, I found it to be incredibly helpful, and it seems like it's developed nicely. I got the app for the iPhone and it worked right away.
I've developed a lot of computer software, but it's a very different experience than using it because it's about simplicity. Using programs like Logic Pro is very challenging for me because it has so many features and details. And becoming somewhat fluent with it is important in order to concentrate on Music (which is the important part) Anyway, I really like help forums and have relied on them quite a bit in the past. Thanks for the great service.

Best Regards,
-Frank

Hi Frank,

Welcome to the forums. Logic is a great music production application and has numerous features which keeps it interesting when learning the application as you always find out something new.

I actually learnt everything about Logic through the MacProVideo tutorials. So this website is definitely a great resource.

I would recommend starting with the Logic 101 tutorial:

http://www.macprovideo.com/tutorial/logic9101

And then move through the other Logic tutorials. You will be amazed at how fast you will pick up the application after working through these tutorials.

Thanks Gary,
I was somewhat proficient with it before, but it's been a few years, so I thought I'd start again and be disciplined about it. I think that training is one of the best applications of video there is. I also have Reaktor 5, and thought I'd check out what you have and is otherwise available about that. I'll see if I can get past just finding and tweaking ensembles this time. I remember it being an amazing program, but it always struck me (and many other people) as having been written by engineers without enough emphasis on UI and programmability, making it opaque, and in disparate need of training videos, books, etc.. So, I'll see what's there. I went to the Berklee site (since I'm an alumni - 1982) to see what they might have online. It was down today since there's a power outage in the Back Bay area of Boston due to a transformer fire. Thanks again.

Best Regards,
-Frank

Thanks Frank,

Enjoy the tutorials.

I haven't used much of Reaktor myself due to the same reasons. But I think the interface has been improved and is a bit more user friendly.

I am working through the tutorial myself and hope to soon be creating my own ensembles.

Hi Ha-Style Music

First from the Presets menu choose Drag & Drop Samples

Then click on No Sample Loaded. And choose Load Sample. You will then be able to navigate and load up a sample.
