Your First Recording - Emagic Logic fun User Manual

Transport Functions
Place the song position line to measure 37 and listen to the
result.
It does not sound particularly good, we still need to do some
fine-tuning.
The percussion sounds somewhat strange at first. This is
because you unknowingly transposed the percussion
sequences, causing the drum note placement to shift. You will
have to undo the transposition for the percussion tracks. To do
so, selected the drum sequnces, and drag the "+2" transpose
setting down, until the line is empty. This indicates no transpo-
sition.
Also, the bass in the copied B-section is only a loop that was not
transposed, because it is merely a pointer on the real sequence,
which was not affected by the edit. Therefore, we will have to
copy the the original bass sequence to that location and trans-
pose it.

Your First Recording

The final exercise in the Arrange window is to make your first
recording. To make it fun, you can play a solo over the C-
section. There is already a flute solo there, this, however can
certainly be replaced by a better solo. Since you may not play
the solo perfectly on the first try, we'll set Logic fun so that you
can record several "takes" from which you may select your
favorite.
Step One: Delete the old solo.
•
Select the eraser from the toolbox and click on the sequence
"Flute". It will be deleted.
Now you can preset the cycle and record parameters. You will-
probably want a bit of lead in, before the solo starts, to get ready
to play. You therefore need to extend the cycle to be longer than
the actual recording, that is from 23 1 1 1 to 33 1 1 1. This gives
you two extra measures before section C, which starts at
measure 25.
