Many Thanks!!

MY MIND IS BLOWN! I seriously want to thank Professor Jono Buchanan and the Guildhall Schools Electronic Music Department for their efforts to help others via youtube, for people like me who cant afford more education but want to learn. You could have chose to charge for this seminar, but chose not to. I wish I had known these simple tools years ago. I have been doing things the hard way for so long, unnecessarily creating an overwhelming workload. Which at times makes me procrastinate finishing projects. Not only was it extensively informative, but this video and presentation were produced with outstanding professional quality. The audio and visual kept me on the edge of my seat until the end. I couldn't stop rewinding so I could take notes and get screenshots. A+ work IMO. I will share this video to others in the future.

when working with brush tool in the edit mode, you can hold Shift Button so as you drag without changing note

I liked Tom's little drum skip at the beginning, it didn't sound like a mistake. I've learned so much from watching this, time well spent, thank you.

This is one of the most thorough integrative and comprehensive presentations of Logic i have seen on the net! Thanks!

[LoganFreund]

I use Logic every day, and while I don't nearly consider myself a pro, I know my way around it pretty well. That being said, there have always been parts of Logic that I've just pretended don't exist, so I don't have to figure them out! This is incredibly useful for anyone looking to hone their Logic prowess or just realize they've been doing things the hard way for years. This is seriously good stuff.

[therubbscreative]

This has to be one of the most valuable Logic Pro X tutoriales all over the internet. Thanks a lot.

[segaismyname]

never heard compression defined so well. Thank you Jono

[tonebeatz]

Someone like me with no musical software background is learning so much from this guy. Why pay $1000's of dollars to go to audio school if he explains it down perfectly. Thanks alot bro.

[emerkinsella]

Jono was my first Logic teacher 13 years ago at Guildhall. He's the best!

[denc]

The best thing is the brilliant way that compressors are demonstrated here. Simple and effective. Great video. Thanks

[RusstafaB]

Totally brilliant presentation by Professor John Buchanan.
My Mum won a scholarship to the Guildhall school of music and studied there with (Sir) George Martin back in the 1940's.
Great channel and know my Mum would have enjoyed this if she were still alive.
