#GAIN STAGING LOGIC PRO X PRO#
Solution: This is one of tons of uses for the Marquee Tool - easily the single most overlooked and underrated tool in the Logic Pro toolbox. Many users find it really annoying to have to click on the ruler at the top of the Arrange window, and click to where they'd like to restart playback. Often, new and even more experienced Logic pro users struggle with session navigation, especially where placing the playhead is concerned. Solution: Make sure the Snap mode is set to the appropriate time division (Bars, Beats or Division), and also have 'Absolute Position' ticked in the Snap Menu. This means over time you get clips moving progressively further and further off the grid, causing a nightmarish scenario for keeping everything in time and automating. It tries to place clips in a 'relative' position to the grid - so if you've placed it off the appropriate grid line, it will keep that position while you move it around and make copies.

This is mostly down to the 'Smart' mode in the Snap menu. No placing audio loops or MIDI clips on the Arrange Page's grid can lead to frustrating situations, that get worse the further into a production you get without correcting it. This is a fundamental task, yet frequently new Logic users don't get this right. So, here are the 7 Deadly Sins of Logic Pro.don't worry, I'm not going to make you go to Confession for any of these, I'm just going to give you solutions so you can work more efficiently! It also has to be said, the mistakes I see new producers making in Logic Pro X today, are the same ones I was making over a decade ago. Despite the evolution of Logic as a DAW, and it's greatly expanded array of synths, samplers and audio effects, the fundamentals remain the same. I've been using Logic Pro since version 7, way back in 2006.
