HOW DO MULTI-TIMBRAL PARTS WORK IN LOGIC?... And How to Save Your CPU!

this didn't ansewr my question but gave me a great idea, TYVM

Firstly, Great videos!! Now I have been working on creating my Orchestral Template from scratch since 1 Week and I have tried 4 different approaches. ill just name the final one i found not cpu hungry and that was, loading each instance of Kontakt per channel. So right now I have 64 channels with 64 instances of Kontakt, but all the instruments are purged, And surprisingly the cpu doesn't spike that much. Whereas, I compared it with having multi timbral instances and my cpu went from 0-70% just with 1 track playing 16 out of my string library. Strange!!

How do you switch between channels in real-time during recording?

Hey, I use an Arturia Keylab mkII as my controller and it has the ability to quickly change MIDI channels on the fly. Most of the time though I record sections seperately.

[@turtlefeet7722]

In that case you could just use normal key switch and assign the mkII to the articulations.

Never mind I understand now the benefits.

I am new to Logic but have used other DAWs and it appears in Logic you need to make the decision and know up front how many tracks you want associated with the instrument. In all my other DAWs you just tell it you want the instrument to be a multi and you can add midi tracks and audio outputs after the fact as needed. Is there a way to do that in Logic. Also do you use the multi outs in Kontact to mix or do you just use midi volume. I assume you need a way to provide stems for each instrument?

How do you assign notes to different channels?
