Recording MIDI
You can use a MIDI keyboard to record MIDI in real time in
Logic Pro.
This chapter focuses on recording options that are specic to recording MIDI in real
time. You’ll learn how recording over the top of a previous performance can have
dierent outcomes—merging recordings, replacing recordings, or creating take
folders—depending on your recording setup. You’ll also experiment with quantization,
a process that allows you to correct the timing of MIDI notes.
Making a MIDI Recording
MIDI recording is similar to audio recording. You play your connected MIDI keyboard
and Logic Pro automatically records the incoming MIDI events on the record-enabled
MIDI or software instrument track. In this chapter, you’ll only record to a software
instrument track. Information about MIDI tracks can be found in the Logic Pro User
Manual.
For details about setting the metronome and count-in prior to recording, see Chapter 4.
