Product Overview
Logic Express 8
Multitrack Recording
You can use Logic Express 8 to record anything from a quick demo to a large-scale
commercial project. One-step track setup lets you create and record-enable multiple
tracks with ease.
Auto-punch in and out based on marquee selections or punch in and out on the y.
You can use input monitoring to listen to or process incoming signals without the
need for dedicated input channels—perfect for rehearsing before you record.
Support for the new Core Audio Format (CAF) lets you record extended-length
projects of up to 6 hours at 96kHz.
Precision Editing
Audio editing features in Logic Express 8 let you work with power and precision, using
sample-accurate tools in the Sample Editor or directly in the Arrange window.
Destructive edits
You can perform destructive edits using the built-in editor or an external sample
editor such as Soundtrack Pro 2. Destructive edits allow you to time stretch and
pitch shift audio, change sample rates, extract MIDI grooves from the audio, and
even quantize audio.
Graphic beat mapping
Easily conform any freely recorded audio or MIDI track to bars and beats using
powerful beat-mapping features. You can create tempo tracks automatically, based on
a guide track; or drag bar and beat guides to transients or MIDI notes within a region.
