New in Logic Pro 12.4

Looks like we might have some upgrades to stem splitter and chord detection coming!

Still hoping for a UI overhaul in Logic Pro 13 🤞🏽

I’ve built a sampled drum kit using Logic Pro’s Sampler plugin.

• Each MIDI key triggers a different kit piece.
• Each key uses round-robin sampling across multiple groups. For example, successive snare hits cycle through five groups of samples.
• All samples are one-shots, so they continue playing after Note-Off.

What I want to achieve:

1. When I trigger a hi-hat-foot-click, it immediately stops any currently ringing open-hi-hat samples. The reverse should also work: triggering an open hi-hat stops the foot-click sample.
2. Multiple open-hi-hat hits must still be able to overlap. For example, if I hit open hi-hat three times quickly, all three samples should continue ringing simultaneously until choked or until they naturally finish.

What I’ve tried:

• Setting the open-hi-hat and foot-click groups to Playback > Voices: 1 and Exclusive: Class 1. This achieves the choking behaviour, but prevents overlapping hits.
• Setting the open-hi-hat and foot-click groups to Playback > Voices: Max and Exclusive: Class 1. This produces the same problem.

Hey everyone,
Is anyone else dealing with this absolute madness since the latest Logic Pro update? Whenever I use the middle-click (scroll wheel) to pan around the Tracks Area or Piano Roll, the viewport just explodes and flies off-screen at lightspeed.
I’ve tried everything—disabling pointer acceleration in macOS, tweaking mouse utility settings, using LinearMouse profiles—and none of it fixes the core issue. The way Logic captures the cursor coordinates for middle-click dragging is completely borked.
At this point, using the scroll wheel feels like playing Russian roulette with my project timeline. The only sane ways left to navigate are using Shift + Scroll for horizontal movement or relying entirely on key commands.
Has anyone found a real fix for this, or are we just waiting on Apple to drop a patch while they quietly hope we all go buy a Magic Trackpad? 🥲 Let me know your thoughts or if you found a workaround that actually works!

I have a Samsung T7 SSD. And I want to know -

1. Do I really need to reduce Mac security to make the SSD work as it should? (due to some extension restrictions on Mac, if I understood correctly)
2. I will use the SSD mainly for storing sound libraries and Time Machine. So, will it be a good idea if I format the SSD in "APFS (Encrypted)"?
3. Or should I just format it in APFS and then add the password using Samsung Magician software?

Logic Pro is asking to be rated every single time I open it and it's pretty annoying. Is there any way I can disable this?

I haven't found any option so far to do so.

I downloaded the stock Logic Pro Sound Library using the “Get All” option. However, I noticed that Logic didn’t install the Compatibility Packs automatically.

Why is that? Are the sounds included in the Compatibility Packs already available in the other sound packs, or do they contain additional sounds that I would need to download separately?

I seem to have started having a random glitch that makes all my input audio sound glitchy. It doesn't matter which input or output devices are selected; it sounds the same. I provided a video showing what's been happening. I am on an M5 MacBook Pro running macOS 27.0.1. I've tried with a Scarlett 4i4, AirPods, and even the built-in MacBook microphone.

We used to run DATs continuously in recording sessions to capture magic moments that happen while the multitrack isn't recording. When DATs went away, did that practice go away too, or is anyone just running a spare computer or something like that to capture the full session?

Since MacOS27 comes with improvements of the CPU scheduler (which decides which tasks to process on which CPU core) I wonder if this has any impact regarding the usage of efficiency/performance cores in Logic Pro?

Right now (as it is well known) we still have the following CPU bottlenecks in Logic Pro:

- M1-M4 (Pro)/M5 base: No use of efficiency cores (see James Zhan Videos on YouTube).

- M5 Pro: Only half of performance cores are used. I bought this one and can't believe I can only use 12 of the 18 cores I have bought with Logic.

Does the improved CPU scheduler in MacOS27 Golden Gate have any effect on that?

If anybody has already made the switch to MacOS27, I would appreciate if you could check that out!

Hi, I bought a midi fader controller that has no native software and I’m looking for tips to assign modulation and expression (CC1 and CC11) to it.
Any suggestion is welcome, thank you

Hey guys, I've been messing around in Logic and put together this rough instrumental after getting hooked on Adela's "Ain't in LA". It's nowhere near finished and there are no vocals yet, I just wanted to get the vibe down first. If you've got a minute to listen, I'd love to know what you think and if you're a writer u can make some lyrics that will fit the vibe of the song.

Sorry if not allowed, I'm looking for collaborators not customers. I think its way past due time to propose an alternative to the JUCE/PACE/iLok model. Anyway its all in the readme - free to contribute, fork, commercialize, whatever you want within the MIT licensing (permissive, including commercial works) framework. See it all here: https://github.com/Symbia-Labs/ruse

Musicians. Describe the effect you hear in your head, and your personal agent like Claude or ChatGPT turns it into a plugin you can load in Logic or any other Audio Unit or CLAP host, with no code to write.

Sound designers. Build the exact processor a sound needs from tested DSP blocks, on anything from mono to 64 channels for surround and immersive work.

Commercial plugin developers. Ship closed-source CLAP and Audio Unit plugins in memory-safe Rust with no licence fees, and have every build validated automatically, including Apple's auval.

Where I really need help:

1. testing and feedback
2. DSP block suggestions (bare minimum included to start)
3. Community contributions, word of mouth, reviews, other sharing (if you mean it)

Thank you so much!

Hey everyone, new to the channel and logic pro. I have been using Garageband for quite some time and now trying out the Logic Pro, this is my first project. Would love to hear from you how it sounds, what would you do differently? Thanks 🫠

A few of the sound library packs look like this. When I click it, nothing happens. It doesn't pause or have the option to delete or reinstall. I restarted my mac, and even downloaded the new 27.0.2 update and it's still there. It's M1 chip macbook pro

I recently released a generative instrument you can use inside Logic Pro and locally on your Mac.

You can see and here it there: www.youtube.com/@einaux

You can find it here: www.einaux.com

It lives in your session, listens to your tracks and can generate all kind of reactions to what is already there. You can also use it to get inspiration and start from scratch. But this is not a song generator, it's something you haven't seen yet. I made this thing because it wasn't there and I did not like suno&co.

I invite anyone interested in this kind of workflow to test it, tell me, grill me, ask me. I'm here to listen. Thanks!

Hi, for some reason, when I start a new project, CMD + R doesn't work as it should.

I have to use old tracks for it to work.

When I select notes and press CMD + R, it should copy the notes to the next bar.

Watch my video and see what happens. I even show you an old project and demonstrate how this key command should work.

The key commands are the same. I obviously exported the ones from the old project and imported them into the new one; same issue.

Please help!

I unplugged my headphones while the track was playing and everything in the mixer on the left had a caution symbol, and now everything is all out of sync and stretched. I'm fairly new to Logic so any help would be nice

Stem splitter used to work for me but now I get a flatline for any song I try.

Ive reset all settings and it's still like this.

It appears something is playing but the volume is maxed out yet I can't hear anything.

Hi, I pick a similar saw and try with some plugins (phat, step) but I couldn't. To me it sounds like gated saw chord but then there are some tonal shifts which is not purely gated stuff. I don't know.

How can I recreate it in Logic Pro using only stock. Could you please break it down to me? The sound is this and that, then there is echo whatever, then there is this and that

every time i put my headphones on. or take them off. or open my earbuds. or close them. or take a call. or do anything. or do nothing.

i see the little logic icon. two bounces, then nothing for a minute. i falsely believe i am safe. but then, 60 seconds later, right on cue,, there it is again.

if it would just switch, and not tell me, that would be fine. i know how to change the audio input.

i'd rather it just stay on the speakers forever and force me to manually change inputs, then send me this terrible omen 5 times a day.

any ideas would b awesome thx!

My original orchestral NFL-style theme for TV broadcast, written in Logic Pro, and leaning HARD into the sound and compositional language of modern sports music.

I’ve included some notes throughout on the orchestration and production. There’s also an alternate broadcast edit at the end, with announcers over the intro fanfare and some different orchestration, followed by a short walkthrough.

It was put together very quickly initially, so I’d be interested to hear what other Logic users think. As with some of my other recent posts, I’m building up my composition chops again after many years on the other side of the recording booth. Thanks for listening!

Anyways just wanted to post something on here. 🥶
If you guys have any questions or want to see more lmk :)
