Good stuff. I'm a 70 year old neophyte trombonist multi-tracking and you answered my questions without making me feel old and stupid (like a different video from a different site I just finished watching). Thanks.

What is the best way to approach gain staging on midi tracks?

[hikstrmusic]

Why when i do -18 does the VU meter not display 0 its also showing around -18 :S

Thanks so much, I had no idea about pre and post faders

[ruinblond]

thanks man, i just turned 143 and im new to all this and i wanna make some real in the trenches hood shit and you helped me do that today.

[pan]

Thank you so mush⋯⋯ I usually use vu meter to find the sweet spot of each track one by one. Your method is really fast!

[fallenleaf]

fantastic explanation!
this auto played for me! im glad it did because I can now sub to someone providing real & easy to digest audio information!

Have any of you guys seen the volumes on the Montero project in 10.7? I’m really surprised by how hot the volumes are all running! Thoughts? Is it okay to not be in the green??

[ruslanbatkovich]

Hello. Thank you very much for the really good advice. However, I would like to know how to build the gain structure of guitar amplifiers in Logic.

[keithleak]

This was so educational. This is certainly great for guys like me. I had no clue!!.. MythicalNoise. Thanks man. Im a fan!!

[synthesaurus]

What do the track measure on the UV meter after you dropped them to -18? For some reason you turned the meter off and we couldn't see.

[wingtinalvinsham]

when i choose the tracks and tap function....the normalize region gain is off and i cant select..why ?

[DFJ-qquf]

Didnt work for me. Is there a setting that may ne on that doesnt allow me to do this?

[DJLUKEHAIGH]

How come it doesn’t work with midi channels ??

[blessednech]

if I put a gain plug in on the track and reduce the track volume.. is it the same thing ?

[donaldswan]

Im quite surprised it’s that fiddly to get to pre-fader metering selection, as this is something we’d be doing with every track
Thanks for great vid by the way
