Logic is an incredibly versatile program with many special features and functions lurking just below the surface. This practical guide is packed full of tips and tricks to make your Logic sessions faster, smoother, and more productive.

Emagic Logic Tips and Tricks takes up where Logic's manual and online help leave off. Rather than taking you on a step-by-step tour, it provides tips and insights for getting the most out of each of Logic's structural elements. It is designed to be dipped in to as the need arises. When you're working with MIDI, spend a few minutes in the MIDI editor chapters. For audio take a look at the mixing, effects, and sample-editing chapters. Flip it open to any page while you're waiting for the rest of the band to show up, and you'll come away with some useful new trick.
