Loops & Basic Editing15:26
This section introduces students to Logic Pro’s Loops library and shows how to build their first loops. You’ll also learn basic editing tools, including cutting audio regions and applying EQ to shape your sound.

Automations, Gain Staging and Editing27:53
In this lesson, you’ll learn how to shape your sound using automation, control levels with gain staging, and apply simple compression. You’ll also use the Pen Tool to create notes and apply quantization to keep your MIDI perfectly in time.
Automations Mode and EQ26:58
In this lesson, we’ll explore the different automation modes in Logic Pro—Read, Write, Latch, and Touch. You’ll see how each mode works, from simply playing back automation to recording parameter changes in real time. With step-by-step examples, you’ll learn how to use automation to control volume, panning, and effects, giving your music more movement and expression.This lesson introduces you to the basics of EQ (Equalization) in Logic Pro. You’ll learn how EQ shapes the sound of instruments and vocals by boosting or cutting frequencies. We’ll cover the essential frequency ranges, show you how to clean up muddiness, and help each instrument fit better in the mix. By the end, you’ll know how to use EQ to make your tracks sound clearer, more balanced, and professional. Towards the end of the video I'm using the EQ on the mix bus, but it was on read mode when recording, so you can't hear the changes in the EQ
