Manipulate screen controls
In the Logic Pro Smart Controls pane, turn the knobs, click the switches, and move the
other screen controls to see how they affect the sound of the patch.
Each screen control has a text label indicating what aspect of the sound it controls.
You can also change the layout for a Smart Control, save your own Smart Controls, map
screen controls to channel strip and plug-in parameters, and assign controllers on your
MIDI devices to screen controls. For more information about using Smart Controls, see
Logic Pro Smart Controls overview.
Get started with Live Loops in Logic Pro
Live Loops makes it easy to improvise and create music like a DJ or electronic music
producer. With Live Loops, you can play, arrange, and record new musical ideas in real
time. Each musical phrase or loop exists in a cell in the Live Loops grid. You can start and
stop playback of cells freely, while keeping everything in sync with the beat and the project
tempo.
You can start using Live Loops with an empty grid, or choose a Live Loops template with
a set of instruments and prerecorded cells from the Project Chooser. You can also add
regions or loops from the Tracks area to the grid, and record a Live Loops performance to
the Tracks area.
Show the Live Loops grid
In the Logic Pro Tracks area menu bar,click the Show/Hide Live Loops button .
