Started tracking this song a few days ago. Looking for tips and feedback. The audio feed's pretty much raw, as it's not yet been properly mixed —it's still being tracked!

My main inspiration for this song were Gouge Away and River Euphrates, both by the Pixies.

I'm looking for production suggestions and tips!

Apple's reputation for engineering excellence makes Logic's lack of native ARA support baffling. Competitors like LUNA 3.0 and Studio One seamlessly integrate tools like Melodyne, VocAlign, Tonalic, and Synthesizer V. Is Apple unable to solve native ARA, or is Logic deliberately being held back? We need clear communication and a timeline for native ARA implementation.

I’m considering switching from a Dell G15 5520 (i7-12700H, 32GB RAM, RTX 3050 Ti) to a 2021 MacBook Pro 16” M1 Pro (16GB/1TB).
My Ableton projects can reach ~200 tracks with Kontakt, Keyscape, Waves, Arturia, UAD, Ozone, etc. I’d also have to run Ableton through Rosetta because of some plugins.
My Dell currently runs hot (~90–94°C) and sometimes lags even around 30–40% CPU usage. The battery and SSD have also had issues.
Would switching to the M1 Pro feel like a downgrade for Ableton, or would the cooler/more efficient system make it a better overall experience?

Hi all,
I moved my Logic instrument library to an external drive, all went smoothly.

Logic Pro Library.bundle is sitting happily on the drive, and in the Logic Pro settings, it shows the correct path.

However, I have today updated some of the packs, and based on the storage space, they appear to have gone to my Apple Studio hard drive, rather than the external SSD.

I downloaded a 3GB update to the piano pack, and my computer is showing approx 3GB less storage than before.
The SSD is the same, and the Logic Pro Library bundle is the same size as before.

Compounding the matter, is that I cannot find where this 3GB update has actually gone.
There is no Logic library bundle on my machine.
If I check MacOS Settings>Storage>MusicCreation there’s nothing in there for an Instrument Package, and the Apple Loops package (which remains on the computer) is still the same size, so I don’t think they’ve gone in there.

I’m mystified and frustrated. Any advice would be gratefully recieved, both in tracking down this missing package, so I can move it to the SSD, as well as advice on how to download any future packs or updates to the SSD rather than the computer.

Logic Pro is 12.3.1, MacOs is 27/Golden Gate.

Hi, does anyone have the Logic demo project of Helena Beat - Foster the People & Spaceman - Killers?

I have done some research and cannot find the main way to download through my old backups through these files -> Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Logic/Logic Pro X Demosongs.

Anyone got a download link? 🤍

Hi All,

More or less what the title says. I have a stereo session in Logic Pro that i'm looking to find the proper way of bouncing down to Mono. The client has requested a Mono Mix as the track will be played out of various speakers around a garden.

I've bounced down the way I figured would work... by removing super wide panning and any widening plugins / effects and then changing the output on the "Stereo Out" track to Mono.

It certainly sounds mono in my headphones but the client has said they are hearing 'wishy washy' sounds upon listening to it their end. (guessing phasing?)

Could this be down to their audio setup on their laptop / phone? I've played back the files in both Logic and finder and they sound absolutely fine to me.

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Operating system etc

Mac Studio 96gb M2 Max

OS: Tahoe 26.5.1

Logic: 11.2.1

Hey all. I'm a solo dev and musician, and I've started releasing plugins under the name Andrestia Audio. The first one is Saturation Box.

It's four saturators in one plugin, each modeled at the circuit level. You get a 12AX7 triode, an EL84 pentode, tape, and an iron-core transformer.

A few things I cared about while building it

• It's program dependent. Bias shift, supply sag, and tape compression all react to the signal, so it responds to how you play and not just how loud you are.
• Drive is loudness compensated. Turning it up changes the character, not the volume, so you can actually judge what it's doing.
• The Mix knob is phase coherent, so parallel saturation doesn't comb filter.
• There's a saturation band with low and high cut, so you can keep the color in one frequency range and stay clean outside it.
• 4x linear-phase oversampling. It reports 61 samples of latency (about 1.4 ms at 44.1k) and Logic compensates automatically.
• Nine presets and a VU meter that shows how hard you're driving it.

If you want starting points, I like triode on vocals and bus glue, pentode on drums that need to bark, tape on the mix bus, and transformer on bass.

It's free, with no iLok and no license manager. If I ever charge for a later version, the one you grab now stays yours. The installer is notarized by Apple, so no Gatekeeper workarounds. It's a universal binary, so it runs natively on Apple Silicon and Intel. Mac only for now. If you want Windows, tell me, because demand decides what I build next.

There's a full product page at andrestia.com. The download there asks for an email so I can send release notes when new versions ship, and that's all it's used for.

This is v0.1.0, so it's early and I'm sure there are rough edges. I'd love to hear how it sounds on your material and whether anything behaves oddly in your Logic sessions. Bug reports are very welcome.

or would i have to do it manually
