808Logic Pro User Guide
Each text object (except text in the header, or at or outside the page margins) is saved as a
meta event in a particular MIDI region, at a specific bar position. This position is displayed
in the help tag as you insert the text object. Text events are also displayed in the Event
List, allowing you to change their position, but not the text itself.
Tip: You can simultaneously add text to several staffs. This is handy if you want to
insert the text “accelerando al fine,” for example, into all instruments. You can enter text
into several staffs at once just as you can other objects. For more information, see Insert
items in multiple regions in the Logic Pro Score Editor.

You can also change font settings for standard text in the Fonts window.
