💥 How to Use Automation, Basic Tips & Tricks | Logic Pro Tutorial

In this video I show you how to add basic automation to your tracks to give them more depth and make them sound more professional. Automation is a very powerful tool which allows you to modify macros and parameters of software instruments, effects, and more while the track plays. Although I am using Logic Pro, you can apply these techniques to any major DAW such as Ableton Live, FL Studio, Reason, Pro Tools, etc. Enjoy.

I love when people section their videos like this, it makes it easy to come back to for a refresher! Great work, very informative!

[onairmastering]

That bass mono trick is what they did on "Money" right before the guitar solo, they muted all the effects, then BAM! full on, thanks for this!

[flowy]

I really love logic... but if you wanna find some good tutorials for beginners, you can‘t find them... you only get them for fl studio!! So Thank you so much for doing these short, but really informative videos! with your help i can stick to lovely logic!!! 👏👏

[nickd.]

I just want you to know this vid blew my mind. I have only ever used automation for volume and panning. But EQ, Mono/Stereo, etc.?! This information is SO VALUABLE. Thank you for taking the time to post these tutorials and provide visuals / explanations to what you're doing and how it works. I love your channel! Never stop!

[treyhibbard]

I love your videos because as I'm still learning how to use logic, your videos make the most sense. You say what button to press to open a certain menu and don't assume that the listener might have every basic prerequisite to learning this skill. I feel like most videos are built on teaching strategies for experienced producers but you incorporate strategy and teaching, thanks!

Making music for 10 years with different producers now I’m building my own studio and since I got all the gear I just needed to know how to use my daw right .
You helped me so much I’m watching your videos every day at work and my progress is amazing
Whenever you start making presets or mastering templates I will buy it all
Thanks so much for making these awesome videos 🙏

[philnobo]

Another superb tutorial from you Tony... simple explanations with no filler and soooo many useful tips along with the how-to demos.

The trick with the bassline is absolutely killer – very subtle and very powerful. I also picked up your Sound Playground pack and would highly recommend it – let’s have volume 2 sooner rather than later.

You’re absolutely one of the best Logic Pro educators on YouTube, please keep your tutorials coming 👍

[eriksaxmarx]

Man, your lessons are a gold machine. Thanks!

[kylerseal]

literally all of his videos are phenomenal, I learn so many things every time I watch this dude🔥🔥

[vonhaze]

Yo Tony, can you PLEASE do a video on busses and sends. I feel like you way of breaking it down would be simpler than the rest.

[YGGRICH]

Thanks Tony legit been wondering how to automate my tracks all week. It just looks so complicated. But this helped so yeah man thanks again!

[lawrencedb]

Super helpful overview, Tony - thank you!

[brendanmccashin]

Damn never thought of automating into stereo Tony always got some gems

[KRISTOBLANC]

Yoo! Your videos are the best for Logic X! Much appreciated

[chunk]

I’ve been producing beats and rapping since i was 11 and i really wasn’t good at it but I do have to say your tutorials really helped me. oh and ive been watching since the free beat videos. as of now though i have stopped rapping because ive developed a throat illness that makes my voice quite deep and raspy and it just doesn’t sound right. but yeah man keep up the good work :)

[lucathesadman]

As someone who taught myself how to use logic years ago, I lowkey never knew how to use automation till this video! I just cut up each repeating part and tweaked whatever effect I wanted when it would come up (it was stressful but it did the job) and honestly this makes sense and makes it all much more easier LOL idk why I never bothered learning this sooner!

[poobens]

Great video! I learned so much from this.

[Itay.]

Thanks bro, was looking for a tutorial for a min

[nmorii]

always learn something from your video, I would be lost without you

[prodpaulo]

this is exactly what I needed thank you
