How to Edit Guitars in Logic Pro X Like a Pro!

[@wri6345789]

Hey Kris! Bill Wright here. I learned so much from this video. I previously knew that it was possible to quantize midi tracks, and it is something that I do a lot, but I had no idea until just now that it was possible to quantize audio tracks as well - I just had never thought to try it. Right on, Sweetheart - you're the best!

[@elharrop]

Omg I didn't know you could quantize guitar that easily, I thought you could only do that with MIDI, thank you!

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Emma Harrop haha I felt the same, glad to help!!

[@graysonkemp8870]

Literally what I thought too

[@milkyfernandez5505]

Dude, me too. This video is a blessing

[@KidAstronaut]

Wow this video is a major gem off the first tip alone! Thank you!!

[@stevenfogamomi520]

Thank you for making this dope video! Your simple explanation of the transients and your straight forward editing of the guitar part was NOT was l looking for BUT I definitely stayed and watched this whole video as I was like "Oh, I need to do this too" 😂🙏🏻

[@DarioDazz]

OMG, how feels good to be alive when you find out this stuff. Great video. Liked and Subscribed.

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Yay! So glad to hear that!! More coming soon! :)

[@michaelaverillproductions3245]

Awesome video Kris! Learned some great new things about the flex quantize and snap functions from this. Thank you!

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Michael Averill Productions you’re so welcome :)

[@Lu1tenentDan]

blew my mind with the quantize feature thank you!

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

yay! You're so welcome ;O)

[@ClevelandEscape]

make another one !!! very good video on this, something that drives me nuts when recording vocal and guitar

[@avantisingh3758]

Thank you so much! This video is really helpful.

[@SonicRSA1]

Perfect so well explained! And great tip on tuning with the capo on! Thank you

[@michislama]

Thanks a lot for your tutorial, great video! Greets from Vienna

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Thank you!! 😊

[@TheBlueskyson]

Thanks for vid mi amiga. ty. Happy new year.

[@justmanuka]

Hey this is super helpful. Have you got any vids on Guitar EQ and picking plug ins to give it that warmth effect. that would be really helpful

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Thats a great suggestions Manuka!! I'll see what I can come up with 🙌

[@robshutter5622]

fantastic tutorial !!

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Robshutter thank you😻

[@damion2226]

Thanks for the video- If quantizing a synchopated acoustic guitar (moderate/fast bpm), do you think it would still be best to stick with the polyphonic flex?

[@robbievraps]

Great video! What kind of mic are you using?

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

I'm using the Slate VMS-1! It's an amazing mic that can emulate other classic and legendary mics virtually!

[@dugknndy]

Nice demo

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Thank you Doug!!

[@matteogravante]

Thank you!!! :)

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

my pleasure! :)

[@matteogravante]

@@ProduceLikeaBoss I worked on this track following your advice! Can you give it a listen? kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4WWgZWJgtR_hM0 🙏 Edited and panned!

[@Alejandro-nq8rc]

great video

[@taylalemieux]

Another amazing tutorial thank you 🙌🏻💕 I’ve been having trouble trying to figure out where to put vocal effects on my tracks. Is it on the input or the master track? I’m not sure where to put the reverb compressors and melodyne plug ins. I’d love to see what you do when processing vocals 😊

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Tayla Lemieux hey Tayla! So glad you’re enjoying the videos! You should definitely put your effects on the track , not the master. 😉 And I would put reverb on sends, or “busses” I know it’s a lot to learn at first, stick with it love, it’s gets easier 🤓💗

[@taylalemieux]

@@ProduceLikeaBoss Thank you for this! I'll definitely try and figure out how to set those up! Thank you :)

[@creepymcpeepers]

My logic doesn’t show my grid view option in the screen in the top middle for some reason 😕

[@HeyAmyGrace]

Is there anything that helped you develop an ear for EQing? It’s hard for me to tell what frequencies need to be adjusted. Thanks for being so helpful!

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Hey Amy!! I totally get it, ear training EQ frequencies is a totalllly new ball game at first but it gets easier! I actually found it useful to start with presets within the EQ and make tweaks from there. You can also look up cheat sheets for EQ (there are a ton on pinterest and online) and look where general trouble/sweet spots are on acoustic guitars. One size will never fit all as each instrument is unique, however, it gives us a great starting point :)

[@HeyAmyGrace]

@@ProduceLikeaBoss super helpful! Thank you! I’ll do that!

[@kelseymcneil9123]

Amazing!!! thank you!!

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

You’re so welcome !🤗💜

[@gavinchongzhe]

Noticed that during editing your region starts before the cycle area yellow strip. What would you advice on setting the cycle area before recording? Do I set it slightly earlier or set it just on the bar?

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

You can set the Cycle right where you want to start recording. Logic secretly records audio during count-in, so you can click-drag the left side of the region to the left if there's something just outside of the Cycle bar :)

[@gavinchongzhe]

@@ProduceLikeaBoss Thank you for the tip! Been looking for the answer to my question for a long time :)

[@VirtusLenon]

Hey you're awesome!

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Hey YOU'RE awesome! 😁

[@jumpbackgeno]

Ok I'm in, Sub'd..

[@MandyBrookeOfficial]

This is awesome!!!! I always just play it again 😂

[@oficialrodrigorocha_]

Wonderful!!!!! S2

[@AceHardy]

🔥🎶

[@creepymcpeepers]

Hey I have a serious question so I got a guitar I got all these pedals and what not but what if I want to just play with the amps and effects on logic but what if I have it set on distortion but I want to change it to clean like while I’m playing and then can I have it go from clean to distortion withought having like a separate guitar track with for each different clean or dirty or what not?

[@midnasalinas8857]

Automation

[@creepymcpeepers]

@@midnasalinas8857 uhmmm so just it has to switch at a certain point. In the grid and that is the only way ?

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

You can use automation to turn pedals on and off and even change knob settings. Hit A to show the automation screen, then select the effects you want to automate in the drop downs. You'll draw in the graph of the levels you want Logic to set for you. Have fun!

[@creepymcpeepers]

@@ProduceLikeaBoss thank you

[@graysonkemp8870]

Question-so does this mean if I’m trying to achieve a nice wide stereo electric guitar tone, I record my hard left, then record my hard right, and flex the both of them?

[@ProduceLikeaBoss]

Exactly!

[@zennduck]

BOOM

[@peterm13]

mic between hole in body and neck.

[@josephmulhern4950]

Its a good video but this doesnt teach us how to cut and paste the best parts if we want to loop it, since you played it out near perfect
