I am 70 years old and I want to be able to make the music for a KZbin documentary I am making, I am not a musician, just a beginner with Logic Pro and this beginners course makes it so simple to understand the basics and to start putting music together so quickly, thank you Tony for making available this first rate Logic Pro course , and for free. You are very kind, and very talented in teaching something that for a beginner looks so complex and difficult and you made so simple to understand.

You have a knack for teaching and you do so in a way that is so easily digestible for people like myself who didn't even know what a DAW is before coming here. I could tell that there was so much effort being put into making this video. ✅ Content ✅ Simple, clear explanations ✅ You went over shortcuts in Logic Pro ✅ Edits/mentions for when there were typos ✅ Timestamps ✅ Friendly, no assumptions made, no ego, just straight up cool!

I've been procrastinating on getting started in LogicPro for a solid year now, because it felt quite overwhelming. Thanks to your wonderful tutorial I was finally able to set everything up and create my first little track. Your way of explaining hits an appropriate level of detail and feels very encouraging, not patronizing in the least, while also staying quite realistic on how much of a remaining scope there is to learn. Thank you, really, for putting this together - so very helpful!

[@craigmiller]

Great video! Thanks! Minor comment from a software engineer. You seem like you really enjoy understanding things deeply so the following comment is meant to be helpful to anyone coming up with a strategy for storing their Sound Library or other Asset Library. Moving your files to an SSD (Storage) doesn't have any effect on the CPU (Speed at which Logic runs). For the purpose of this discussion, a computer has three primary parts: 1. CPU or the processor/brain, 2. RAM or short term memory, and 3. Long term storage/drive (where things are saved when the computer is turned off). When a computer program, like Logic, runs, it loads the program/app and related data/sound library files used in a project from the relatively slow long term storage (SSD internal or external) into RAM so it can be accessed by the CPU super fast. The CPU/brain then interacts with what's in RAM while it runs. Once loaded into RAM, the CPU/brain no longer accesses the files in long term storage (internal SSD or external SSD). Metaphorically speaking, RAM is like your short term memory, and the SSD is like a book. Moving the files stored from the internal SSD to an external SSD frees up the internal SSDs long term storage space (blank pages in the book) but doesn't affect the performance of the CPU/Brain in any way since the CPU/Brain is accessing everything from it's short term memory (RAM) once loaded. If we're getting detail oriented, it's actually slightly slower on a Mac to load these files into RAM from the external SSD than it is to load it from the Internal SSD. The external SSD communicates over USB which is a slower bus than the bus that communicates with your internal SSD. A bus is the path or "road" that the data travels along when it is copied from long term storage to short term memory (RAM). Freeing up internal drive space is definitely a benefit as most people are limited in the amount of internal storage space they have on their computer, so it's still solid advice. It doesn't however improve the performance of Logic in any way. The only effect it has on performance is actually negative as it results in a slight slowdown of the time it takes to load a project into Logic. Nothing worth concerning ourselves with though. Personally, I like to keep the sound file library on my internal drive so I can always have access to the library, even if I'm working on my laptop in a coffee shop and don't have the external SSD with me. I keep active projects on my internal drive as well. I use my external SSD to archive older projects so my internal drive has room for my active projects and sound library. I follow the same strategy with Final Cut Pro, Xcode dev projects, and other projects that have a lot of project specific assets to be stored on disk. I can work from anywhere and have the fastest load times.

EXCEPTIONAL class! Tony is a natural teacher and skilled instructional designer. Though I'm not a total stranger to music and DAWs, between books and videos, I never found a resource that gave me the kind of foundation I was looking for. This introduction did. Though Tony regularly reminds us that this class is not comprehensive, it covers what you need to know in enough depth not only to get you comfortably started, but to give you the grounding you need to make the most of the many other resources out there. I'm another Mac-based gray-hair Boomer. I'm primarily a video producer/editor and have used DAWs to create my own music beds. The rules and structure are a lot different than house beats, what I learned here was completely applicable--how to create a structure in Logic Pro. As an aside, in my video career I've worked on any number of instructional projects and have watched quite a few produced by others. I am super-picky and have seen a lot of professionally produced instructional videos that are total failures. In that light, Tony absolutely nailed it. I would, with full confidence, pay for any of his premium lessons. Thanks Tony!

Just finished watching the whole video/course and man Im impressed, you are definitely the best youtube teacher for sure, most people that do videos like this usually dont know anything about modern music which makes it hard to try to emulate what they do cuz like they do a begginners tutorial and record a guitar solo in it lol, like how am I supposed to emulate that as a complete begginner??? if it was at least midi and they showed the notes there for ppl to copy and understand... theyre just more old fashioned ig, but anyway like I was saying your way of teaching was just amazing and easy to follow, loved the way you highlighted the hotkeys that was soooo helpful, also doing a song using apple loops was just what I was looking for! (but guess what? couldnt find a video of someone doing it without doing "complex" things without explaining how they did it lol) This video was literally God sent to me!, thank you so much for this bro I cant explain how grateful I am for this video, I might even take a look at your premium courses too as soon as I feel more confident at the UI ^^

[@itstonyholiday]

Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful comment, always makes me happy when someone feels the content was helpful. The whole course was meant to be 2 things: 1) an absolute-zero starting point for people that want to get into music production and Logic Pro. Moving past using loops will be in the premium courses for sure. 2) a test to see what people like about the course and if there would be interest in it. With that I’m glad you liked the hot key overlays, that’s something that really worth learning imo. With that being said, is there anything you really didn’t like about the course? Or anything you would say could use improvement? Thank you for always showing love on my videos!

You're too kind my friend. Thank you for the words, want to get more and more people into using Logic!

[@christianpeterson4671]

I appreciate this so much man! I have been fiddling with making my own music for a long time, But I only know how to play guitar and sing, but now I have access too so much stuff and this really put it all in perspective. Thank you for this introduction to the program I am sure this will be an invaluable resource that I will return too many times.

[@itstonyholiday]

Too kind! Thank you for the amazing comment, really it means the world to me. All the best on your music production journey.

Mr. Tony Holiday, I'm a 70-year-old guy from India, a has-been drummer, and a bedroom guitarist with an insane fetish for effects pedals... well, to cut a long story short, I got into using GarageBand a few months back and want to progress to Logic Pro. This video is truly an eye-opener. Thanks a ton 🙂

[@itstonyholiday]

Thanks for watching! Really glad you found the video useful. All the best!

This is the best tutorial I have seen on Logic Pro. Tony is following a logical lesson plan with background/philosophy on the subject, demonstration and opportunities for practical application. Great virtual instructor.

[@itstonyholiday]

🙏🙏 Thank you 1000x for the kind words, I really really appreciate it. All the best in your Logic Pro and music production journey, going forward. Thanks again.

Fantastic tutorial. I searched through a lot of tutorials and this was the first one that really sunk in for me. Thanks for all the hard work that went into this crash course!

Tank you for watching, I really appreciate it!!

[@allanrocque2317]

So this just happened...I went to continue working on a track using Pro Tools and my laptop (Windows) complained about the CPU not able to handle the session. Fed up, I started researching for a Mac Book Pro and what is the best recommended DAW. Turns out, Logic Pro was the overwhelming favorite. On a whim, I asked the AI to "teach me everything there is to know about Logic Pro" and your tutorial came up! Had I known this from before, I could have saved myself so much time, effort, and money! Thanks for your tutorial - clear, concise, and most of all, extremely encouraging as it is insightful. May a Grammy be in you near future (if it hasn't appeared already!).

[@itstonyholiday]

That's wild!! Just to be clear, an AI recommended my tutorial? Please reach out if you have questions re: Logic, happy to answer them.

I've been using production programs since the early days of Garage Band (eventually graduated to Logic) and have always created by instinct (sound/feel) vs. having a set process. After ALL these years, I have found this video to be SO HELPFUL. Thank you for providing a basic template and for providing necessary inspiration to start back up again!

[@itstonyholiday]

Thanks for always showing love Nick. Glad you liked the content, and thanks for the appreciation. Happy producing!

I'm going to be honest, when I first saw your thumbnail, I thought you were going to be one of those clickbait channels whose KZbin career is more successful than their music career. But after watching your tutorial, you seem to be the real deal. I'm really glad I clicked on this video. Especially near the end, you provided some really insightful advice. I'll check out your other videos. Thanks!

[@itstonyholiday]

In all fairness, my KZbin channel is probably more successful than my music career haha. But either way, I enjoy making music and I also enjoy sharing that with people. Glad you found the course worth it, really appreciate the comment!

Great intro tutorial. FYI in Logic Pro as of July 2024, you won't see that Finder Bookmarks icon until you bookmark at least one location. You can do that by right-clicking a folder/directory in Logic's Finder and choosing "Bookmark "

I usually make docs and edit and really wanted to learn how to use Logic Pro if only for the sound design in my videos, as I am not very musically talented. Now that I finished this I actually think I understand music more and how to use it better in my videos. Thanks so much!

[@itstonyholiday]

Love hearing that! Thanks so much for watching + the comment. It really means a lot.

[@TheZenguitarguy]

Thanks for this well produced and informative video. I started music programming on a Buchla, then as a Synclavier programmer and these days I mostly produce and mix in Protools. A client recently asked me to learn Logic to help him and I appreciate all of the time and effort that you obviously put into making this. All DAW's are the same idea with Different GUI's and workflows. Being able to break that down and organize it so navigation and workflow become obvious is a very valuable resource. I am sure there is a lot of detailed nuance I will need to acquire over time but this was a great starting point and I appreciate your work and efforts here.

[@itstonyholiday]

Cant' tell you how much I appreciate the comment. You're absolutely right about All DAWs are more or less the same, it just takes a bit of time to learn the workflows and where things are. Again, thank you for watching. I really appreciate you taking the time to leave this comment. All the best with your client and working in Logic. PS why did your client request that you work in Logic?

[@TheZenguitarguy]

@@itstonyholiday He is a composer/player and was thinking his creative process will be made easier by working in Logic over Protools. i can see why he might feel that way. I think Protools is a bit more direct in terms of how it integrates the creative and recording process. Probably a more traditional process in that it's set up and design more as a recording, studio environment and logic seems to be more nonlinear? More options and more possibilities to work with and organize and manipulate sound and structure, to be honest for me it's apples and oranges, but I really want to help support him being able to get to his creative ideas more easily? Again thanks for your informative video. In this day and age, I think people take for granted the amount of work. It takes to create quality content, and intellectual property, and I think it should be acknowledged. I always try and support people who are good at what they do and know what they're doing. So keep making good content and I hope that it supports you and your creative endeavors.

[@TheZenguitarguy]

@@itstonyholiday ps, me, knowing how to work in a lot of different workstations over the last 45 years just makes me old lol but I love what we do and I'm always curious as to what the next new thing is to learn.

Thank you so much for this. I had FL Studios for the longest time on my desktop and had a friend that had Logic. I watched videos to learn it but couldn't hold on to it. I decided to buy this instead since my friend would be able to help me first hand but this also helped so much. Logic seems so much easier to use and get used to as a beginner. And having it on the laptop is just way more convenient. Thank you for helping us out!

It's never too late Frank, glad you found the content helpful. I'm assuming it's me saying 'hot keys' which is a way of assigning something you'd normally have to click on to a key on your keyboard.
