Apologies to folks who came to the premiere. There was apparently a KZbin issue which caused it to "crash" somehow during the intro. Hope you enjoy the video on see you on the next live stream here - kzbin.infoWRDHrQPJvpI

[@CharalamposPilavakis]

Thank you Pete! You have the amazing ability to explain and transfer complex information.

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Thanks my friend. Check out today’s live show if you’re looking for more info. kzbin.infoqpct5gYJGGA?si=7kEtEgt3fa5H6__T

[@jobarrieglenn]

Now I am slowly going to go through your tutorials, before I start with the questions. :)

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Haha! Love it Jo. Happy to hear them. They’ll likely form the next series of tutorials.

Any time. 🤘

[@marcbrault]

Short and sweet but, more importantly, very clear ! I don't have Logic (on iPad) and yet, I got this ! Great vid, Pete !

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Awesome. Thanks Marc. This will hopefully be a good reference if and when you choose to check it out.

Godd stuff as always Pete, still learning Logic but getting there

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

You got this my friend.

[@DielectricFailure]

Thank you for this video. I’ve been looking to see how to use my guitar plugins but couldn’t figure it out.

[@stvxvace]

Hey Pete, first of all, thanks for your videos. They have been incredibly helpful. I recently started using Logic Pro on my iPad, and it's been amazing. However, I'm facing a problem that has haunted me in every DAW I've used. I struggle with mixing; despite my attempts to learn, I can't seem to get it right. I wanted to ask if there's any app similar to Ozone available on iPad that would allow me to automatically mix and master my tracks. Unfortunately, I saw one of your videos where you recommended Final Touch, but I discovered that the developer has discontinued the app.

[@jaryig3462]

such a good energy to your clips Pete. anything you talk about I can just listen..... excellent tutorial. I am skeptical of the ios logic, it is a GB next level, far from actual logic. I think the limitations might be the 3rd party plugin aspect. you seem like an audio-inclined creator, and i am too. This is where this ios version might be failing us, being focused on midi. have a great day brother!

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Yup. I think this is very ouch for GarageBand users looking to upgrade. Logic Mac users may be frustrated by the limitations.

[@brushman20]

Finally took a moment to download logic and hope to at least get to play with it for the trial period and hopefully longer. Looking forward to hearing the sounds and stock instruments as I’ve heard they’re pretty impressive. This is a great tip video! I will definitely be referring to this and your other videos in the future. Thanks Pete! Well done as usual!

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

[@pqsk]

That quick sampler is cool. I was messing with GarageBand some years ago and added a sample of me saying "what the" it was hilarious

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Such fun isn’t it? And music really should be fun.

[@TheOverlordOfProcrastination]

Superb video as always. I’ve noticed the Apple Pencil is pretty much useless for double tapping, which is somewhat annoying.

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Yeah. As is the mouse. And sometimes for single tapping it’s a little bit frustrating. Hopefully will get addressed in the next version.

[@hartmuthornstein3268]

Hi Peter I am still wondering of this class complaint modus Fore example I have an old Behringer Xenix 1204 USB mixer it works with my iPad they don’t even write that it was class complaint Than I have an Zoom R24 the version from 2012 it don’t works Is this a software hardware ore money politic problem 🤔🤣

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

So…. Yeah. A lot of gear was made before we even thought about class compliance. But it still works!

[@elisaremaut7584]

hi Pete, is there a way to delete one or more bars please ?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Hey there. So, yes, depending how you have your project set up and how many tracks etc. check out all my videos at logicipad.com/

[@believe-in-righteousness]

How do you normalise audio on logic pro ipad

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Go to export and turn on auto normalise. This video shows it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGPNeJ6gaqZroJY

Yup it sure does.

Does Amplitube work with Logic Pro on iPad ?....

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Haven’t tried it personally. Maybe ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group at createrecordreleaae.com, or the Discord group here - studiolivetoday.com/discord. I tend to use Tonebridge mostly these days. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWTFlJh9aNSYf6csi=Z0HBsisH9wizH-ms

[@T0M3665]

I have an issue in logic pro where it keeps telling me that I don’t have enough free memory even though I have 70 GB or socage space left. I can also load up projects that are bigger then the one that keeps bothering me about storage. What do I do?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Is it storage or memory that it’s referencing? Depending on the iPad you’re using, you may be running out or RAM as opposed to storage. Maybe ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group at createrecordreleaae.com, or the Discord group here - studiolivetoday.com/discord.

I have exact the same problem on my I pad . I seem to max out on memory without much running on the interface . No problems with GB on the same I pad.

[@johnhughes1952]

Leaving the IOS Garageband users behind? I've always loved your videos but we can't all afford the the Logic Pro subscription.

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Quite the opposite in fact! I’m currently in the middle of updating my GarageBand iOS tutorials for 2024. 42 videos already! kzbin.info/aero/PLc8Xg_23Wa55j3UulZLSxlchHTPM2us2H&si=4ByYS3nV0srbdrp9

[@johnb6723]

Not having a more direct means of importing instruments etc is a case of very bad programming, like you might expect to get from a programming novice rather than from an expert or pro.

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Version 1.0 I guess. Logic on Mac has already captured the “advanced” pro workflow.
