use regularly. The loops you choose can be replaced or added to easily as your project
advances, but the use of favorites may form a great starting point for many of your songs.
Specify and access your favorite loops
1. To specify a loop as a favorite in Logic Pro, select the Favorite checkbox for the loop in
