Vocal chops are fun. They stimulate creative rhythmic and melodic ideas that would otherwise be difficult to develop. Follow along in this video as I take a short vocal phrase, convert it to a quick sample instrument, create some vocal chop phrases, and add processing.
Logic has hundreds, if not thousands, of key commands designed to make using Logic easier and more efficient. Here, I'd like to share five originally unassigned key commands that I have assigned, improving my workflow immensely.
Follow along in this video to see how Eli Krantzberg sets up a guitar solo with a unique set of rolling repeats that swells and ebbs with the rhythm of the song.

We've assembled the expert panel once again, this time to answer the unanswerable: If you could only use one single third-party audio unit effects processing plug-in to augment Logic's already great arsenal, which would it be, and why? Which plug-in would you not be able to do without when mixing?
Logic Pro has two flagship reverbs that easily hold their own when compared side by side with the best third-party reverb plug-ins out there. I am, of course, talking about Logic's Space Designer and Chromaverb. They represent two completely different under-the-hood approaches to doing the same job, placing sounds within a space. See how our panel decides which one to use and when.
