Quick Tip: Workflow tips for beginners

[@jharden21]

I yelled "YOU CAN DO THAT??" when she brought up midi chase

[@marcusheier7577]

haha same!!

[@RedRosamond]

ME TOO

[@PrinceWesterburg]

I'm not alone?!? Thank God!

[@Temumusic]

Yoo I read the comment before I saw it and was like ‘wha??’.. then I saw it and I screamed too lolol

[@oxygencube]

Whhhhhaaaaatttt! All these years! 😭

[@LeeBlaske]

MIDI chase is good, unless you’re using evolving sounds, cymbal/time rolls, loops that trigger with one key, sfx, etc. They’ll play as if started from the beginning, so they’ll be off if started mid-way. The work-around is to freeze those tracks.

[@JeremyJames_studio]

'Midi chase' for my tip of the year! GOLD!

[@oxiary]

tip of the century!! absolute must have

[@envrie9423]

I find homay’s voice so soothing for these videos. Kind of off topic but not really, it adds to the communication of the education.

[@raypotter]

Wow - Thinking of what I will do with all of the extra hours of my future life. Absolutely amazing. Thank you Homay, you are a treasure!!

[@JoshuaBatch]

Writing a 11 minute drone piece currently and the MIDI chase sequence and capture recording has made things SO much easier. Many thanks, Homay!

[@Frst2nxt]

That capture recording is a life saver. Homay's presentations have great workflow. I never find my time wasted looking for the relevant matter. Everything is to the point, so I know that any system she finds to the point and practical will serve me well.

[@jazzybeeff]

Midi Chase is great thing that i've learned from this video. but for me the point is LATCH automation mode! I was going crazy with TOUCH mode now i figured it out. Thank you Homay. Thank you Spitfire.

[@DavidKeenum]

Thank you to Homay and Spitfire Audio! These videos are so helpful.

[@squirreltrench]

OMG. I had no idea Logic had a Midi Chase function, and that it was off by default. I have just updated my template to have MIDI Chase ON. Thank you Homay!!!!

[@MarioTorre]

Squirrel Trench Audio I feel so silly, I've been using Logic for five year and never knew this was even possible! Thanks Homay!

[@gabbyonyoutube]

Squirrel Trench Audio same, I used to bounce my long drones to audio in order to listen back 😂😂

[@thewoods5831]

Oh My God these tips are genius- how did I not know ANY of these ha!! Cheers so much!

[@oxiary]

BRAH NO WAY why isn't midi chase a default I AM SO MAD RN AHAHAHAHAA thank you spitfire for showing us the light !! quality content

[@WellBasicallyClub]

It's on by default in REAPER, really strange to me that it isn't in Logic.

[@rafaelsimoes3132]

Omg, that midi chase tipp was something I was looking for for ages. thank you very, very much!

[@jasonpayne9791]

I've been using Logic for a long time daily. and I've gotta say this video pointed out a lot of really neat tools that I had no idea existed! Thank you for the tips

[@ManchesterMusic]

This makes me really happy I switched to Logic. Thanks Homay, looking forward to the next one in the series.

[@caiogracco9129]

You gave me a new life, Homay!

[@bealjimbo]

How did I not know about adding the tracks from another project?! This is going to save me DAYS! Thank you :)

[@TIGUFSUPMET]

Straight to the point, no waffle! Please make more videos.

[@loxpower]

Midi Chase it's a real steal, thank you! But you can do capture recording even easily with short-cut SHIFT+R. ;)

[@unclesam530]

one of the main reasons i use FL Studio is "dump score log to selected pattern" (capture recording) its cool to see Logic has the same feature & it's one i'd like to see implemented in more DAWs

[@AndrewSouthworth]

YES you are a lifesaver! I've been using Logic for about a decade and I had no idea about MIDI Chase or Capture recording, not sure if they're relatively new or if i've missed it this whole time. I was jealous that Ableton users were getting that on their newest update, but now I have it in Logic.

[@VictorHugoFumagalli]

Thanks Homay! Really useful Tips!

[@PawelWalentynski1]

MIDI CHASE!!!!!!!!

[@pommedapi3847]

You can feel at the last sentence "that´s all I wanted to show for now" with a smile that there is a lot more to know! :) But already nice important basics here. Thank you

[@GabrielLehtofilms]

Awesome!! Homay, please make more videos like this!! I loved it!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!! Gabriel Lehto

[@Sanayukia]

Thank you so so so so much!! You basically just solved every little thing that irritated me in Logic. Turns out they had a solution for it the whole time :D This will really help you, you rock!

[@bonuebonue]

Very useful tips and wonderfully presented! Thank you!

[@RidvanDuzey]

The one Logic video we all needed, damn! Thanks a lot, has improved my workflow by a ton!

[@MrFn65]

Very useful tips ! Great info I’ve sent to many of my Logic users out there!

[@RobertSuchorski]

those were really good time saving tips. I'm in cubase but i found most of them here as well. Thank you

[@alanthe6121]

Thank you so much! Please keep sharing tips, you really know your stuff!

[@kriszrocks]

Thank you Homay!! It was so helpful! Especially the Midi chase! :))

[@EmilVergo]

thank you so much, so helpful video, I save my time

[@motomuso]

Thanks, especially for how to grab a track from another project. Logic is so deep and flexible that after so many years there's still more to learn. A favorite of mine is to have in every screenset, the Event Float for quick tweaks and info. Window>Show Event Float

[@alteregothehi-qs5774]

Thank You!!! Again soooo helpful!

[@NN-rs1ny]

Thank you for making this kind of videos theres not many good quick tips for Logic Users out there that are for free please make more tips like this for logic and maybe the MIDI Environment

[@darrinsiberia]

I use two mice. One has the track touch on top like a track ball. So I just use that for scrolling side to side. Saves tons of time. Other mouse is for normal point and click.

[@anonagain]

In case there are any REAPER users watching this, I'm not sure about 'capture recording', but yes you can do all the others in REAPER. Watch Kenny GIoya's videos on REAPER Mania.

[@steevee1945]

Reaper's solution to "capture recording" is just to record your rehearsals. I always add tracks rather than do Takes on the same track. You can always delete the tracks that don't make the cut later.

[@baza210]

any suggestion for how to import a track from another project without opening it? I can't find a video on that from Kenny

[@anonagain]

@@baza210 Not sure what you're asking - you mean without opening the project that the track you're importing is coming from? I don't see how you can specify the track to bring over without having the project open, but you can just open the project in a new tab in Reaper then copy/paste the track into the other project. If it's something you do often like a track with an FX chain you want to use, save that track as a template, then you can bring the template into your project without opening the original project. Hope that helps!

[@leokrause2723]

Really, really helpful! Keep on making tutorials that way! Thank You!

[@isaacmichaels]

Where was MIDI Chase the past 5 years of my life.

[@oxiary]

SAME AHHAHHAAHAA

[@elianmusic7452]

my goddd yes i spent 8 years not knowing this one crucial thing....

[@baszero]

Thank you Homay, these are really nice tips! Especially Midi Chase and the LINK icon is very handy.

[@bassManDavis1953]

Wow! Only just found this a what a gem, brilliant

[@avalonyorke9113]

thank you for share your knowledge about this amazing plug

[@terrybarnes5343]

Another great video Homay, thank you so much, Though I've been using Logic Pro X for a while, there's a few things there I didn't know. As always you explain everything so clearly. You're a star Homay, and. a real inspiration. Take care, stay safe, best wishes Terry

[@RidersePeaks]

Thank you, if nothing else the MIDI chase feature will really help me out, thank you.

[@AndersJanssonrockjansson]

wow, amazing! I found so many useful tips from this. Thanks a million

[@justifyed1911]

This is great HOMAY! Thank you so much!

[@vincents1261]

This video has helped me out so much!

[@z-e-r-o-]

勉強になるわ〜 Thank you so much for your informative programs, Homay! With love from Japan.

[@GoldenProductions2019]

Great video and great tips keep up the good work

[@Saeedathar]

Thank you Very Nice Video !!! I didn't know you could recall tracks from other projects directly from the right browser ... I was using insert project command to recall tracks from other projects ...

[@captainwrecksss7005]

Tbh I used to have the MIDI chase thing turned on, when I first started using Logic, but at some point I must’ve accidentally turned it off and I couldn’t find out how to get it back on for months until watching this video. I didn’t even know it had a name, I thought it was just a default setting. Lmao! Thank you for this! These are some very helpful tips!

[@jounihelminen6025]

Super useful, thanks. Midi chase changed my life

[@timothynolan5328]

I was this many years old when I learned all of this except for midi cc learn. :-o TY, Homay.

[@alokvadnere]

Tips really came in handy. Thanks homay

[@JamesJoshuaOtto]

MIDI chase! Thank goodness for MIDI chase. No idea it was in Logic until I saw your video, thanks Homay and Spitfire 👍

[@iancurrie3763]

Thank you very much, Homay!

[@wolframflorian]

Thank god for Homay Schmitz and telling me about Midi chase! 👏

[@jakob_balogh]

Midi Chase will save you hours in your mixing process, especially on Big Orchestral Compositions! Also Capture Record is a must have, so make sure to turn that on ;) Great Quick Tips, Thank you Spitfire!

[@DanielTWessels]

Holy cow - so many things I didn't even realize I needed!

[@pianoguyyy]

Very kind, Homay:) Thank you!

[@jensmadsen6766]

This is really helpful. Thank you!

[@chas1085]

Very good tips, thanks!

[@AengusPaintingsandMusic]

I knew about V for show/hide plugins but I didn't know about locking to a channel. This all works on Logic 9 (which I'm still using) What can I say - MIDI Chase ...Thank you!

[@4kfreelance]

I have to admit I didn't know a about the midi chase function in Logix Pro X until I saw this video. I kept getting confused about the way Logic has a spaghetti junction of steps in getting to the window to select the functions required. Then all of a sudden I realised it's a lot easier going straight to projects settings and midi chase in less steps than preferences. The way Logic and other programs have 3 different ways of doing each function, and from training I've received, it makes it a lot more stressful when developers send us round the houses when completing tasks and confuses us sometimes. Midi chase was of them tricky ones to navigate to when going through the advanced preferences settings.

[@PacifierMusic]

Whah? Midi Chase??? I had no idea. Love this. Thank you.

[@JimLane]

Great tips, thanks for sharing!

[@soundtreks]

These are some good tips. I have worked in DP for years and Cubase so coming back to LPX I am not aware of some of these features so this was helpful. :)

[@rosskinghorn]

Great tips, thank you.

[@juanrakista6316]

Very informative video. Thank you!

[@TheJoeStockton]

Game changer for me. Thank you!

[@Ejlectronics6]

Amazingly helpful. Thank you!

[@aabbcc414]

So much useful info. I've been using Logic for years but I'm new to Kontakt and Spitfire. You saved me hours of work and probably frustration. Your efforts are much appreciated! Have you done a tutorial on Kontakt? I just bought the new Komplete Kontrol MK2 keyboard. Is it better to use Kontakt 5 or KK? I'm Loving the Spitfire Libraries! Thanks so mush for your short, clear, and to the point teaching style. SK

[@CesarDMarin]

Capture Recording!! Wow!! Thank you so much!!

[@Pershamusic]

Homay. Thank you.

[@wert555100]

Thank you, its truly helpful.

[@yuggothproductions]

Midi chase where have you been all my life?! Haha thank you!

[@Blondesax]

Apparently, right there? But who knew?! :)

[@DontFeedTheTrolls]

Chase? That's a new trick for this old dog. Thank you, thank you!

[@lm3xtra]

Superb tips! Thanks.

[@rolandroos5562]

I think it would be nice to do the same Workflow tips for the most common used DAW's...not only just Logic...but also Cubase.

[@JusticeConstantine]

Thank you Homay for the tips on WorkFlow. - Justice Constantine

[@mikaeldannvik9640]

Thank You! You made my day

[@AcousticLabs]

Very helpful, thank you!

[@joewilliams5396]

Good tip for me was the region from another project. Thanks

[@christianmaucotel]

Yesyesyes, another comment about the midi chase ... but wow that is so helpful! Thank you very much!!

[@BeachAndSnow]

Midi Chase is so useful! Thank you

[@zeek2494]

great video, thanks for sharing!

[@christiaantinga]

Also from me a big thanks for the MIDI chase tip!

[@sheltersonic5499]

amazing tutorial, learnt a lot

[@alexmuli]

Midi Chase!What a life saver!

[@kriszrocks]

Very useful tips! Thanks a lot! :)

[@EfisioCross]

Awesome video! I was wondering if any of you knows how to use the second tip on Cubase? I use Cubase 8.5! Thank you for the hard work, and take care!

[@andyallen7984]

I think that Cubase sets Chase to 'on' by default - you can choose individual event types to chase, or not, in PREFERENCE/MIDI/CHASE EVENTS. It's a mixed blessing - sounds that evolve significantly over time, or loops/phrases that need to sync with a particular point in the track will not play in the right place with chase. I typically render these parts (and freeze the original track so that I can edit later if necessary) to get around this.

[@issiewizzie]

Thanks for the quick tips ...

[@davonwhitehead6489]

You rock Homay!

[@Feefor]

Linking!! Awesome Homay

[@richardbagley5096]

Still benefitting from these tips Homay - it's been a couple of years, do you have any more to share ...?

[@ScreaminJimmy]

Love that most of the comments are about MIDI Chase.

[@wouterhardymusic]

MIDI CHASE!!?? Finallyyyy... Thanks a lot!

[@hunghoangmusic]

O.M.G The Capture mode and MIDI Chase is what Ableton 10 has just updated in their latest version, and Logic had it years before.

[@justinmelland3846]

You're golden! Thank you.
