Sorry for the late upload on this one folks! Been dealing with some glitchy Premiere Pro renders ever since updating to Premiere Pro 23. See around 18:37 in the video for a visual of the weird render issues I've been having. If any Premiere Pro wizards have experienced this and know a solution, please let me know. Seems to happen once in every render I do lately. I'll be rolling back to version '22 for part #14!

At 11:30 of this video, you directed the users to go to "Mix", "Pre-Fader Metering". I can't believe how long I have been researching why my recordings are clipping while the audio levels all looked solid. Since I could not find the answer in any of my searches, I decided to just watch your sequence of tutorials. Yep - at 11:30 in lesson #13 I got an answer I could not find in any of my searches. Finally - my recorded wav files are no worse than me! Many thanks!

Thanks Josh for this series. I've been using Logic for some time now but not really learned all the features of it. I'm Swedish and must say You're a good teacher, I can follow You easily not beeing natively speaking English and You are accurate and pedagogical in your way of showing us poor watchers on how to use Logic to the fullest. Thanks from cold Sweden.😊

First of all, Thank you Josh for your knowledge shared here with so many content! You are amazing, and the way you explain is absolutely brilliant! I just would like to ad one little thing about the audio format; the AIFF format is only for Apple users and the WAVE format is for any user Windows or Apple, etc. Hope this could be useful for someone, because back in the day one of my first projects couldn’t be done with another engineer because of the format incompatibility. Thank you again! 😊🙏🏻✨

This series is really amazing! I've been watching, practicing and following along every day. I have found it to be very helpful.

[olexandralunyova]

Absolutely amazing! Thank you for your contribution to my unfinished (no, unstarted)) education that I am now trying to get by myself. The best info on Logic!

[ufukpiskin]

Thank you for the video. What thickness are the strings you use on your acoustic guitar? And what brand of strings do you use? Thank you for your answer.

[santamuzikworks]

I must say you got me back into Logic Pro, been away from it since Covid you doing a wonderful job keep up the good work much respect.

[quinlancanary]

I wish I would have watched this series when I first started using logic! I've learned so much. Thank you!

[trevordolhan]

Great video! You always make it so easy to follow. Nice playing Josh 😊

[RunyCalmera]

This was great. Especially the improvisation in the end❤❤❤❤

[thewhitbyfox]

It was worth waiting for. Excellent as always.

I'm learning a lot from your videos. I am wanting to record our a cappella quartet. I used to be familiar with ProTools but no longer. Just purchased Logic Pro

Loving the series. I’m currently on #11 but skipped ahead to #13 to see if you deal with headphone sends etc. When I couldn’t find it in this video or the descriptions of later videos, I looked in your older series and found something (#66?). Will you be covering this in the new series - how to control sends to monitors and headphones separately. Best to set up a separate bus, separate outputs etc? Thx!!

U forgot to talk about the low latency mode .. One of the best features in logic recording stuffs.

[Luna-sfrn]

Youre the absolute GOAT for theeseee, thank you!!

[vewilli]

Very informing, partly review, partly new to me, but very helpful. Looking forward to #14! 👍🏻👏🏻🙏🏻😊

[randyschmuki]

Great information, so important to know most of this things, thanks!

If you’re recording by yourself, and you can’t reach your keyboard, use the Logic Remote app on your iPhone or iPad.

I record at home, and most of the time I’m able to sit at my desk (for recording guitar or bass). If I’m doing my own vocals or keyboards I use the Logic Remote on my iPhone.
