    By far the best tutorial I've found about this, thank you very much!
  • Thank you, this video will help me a lot understanding Logic's logic! ❤
  • Wow, so many counter intuitive tools in logic. It's such a powerful software!! Thank you for this!! I have been avoiding flextime since I have never been able to get it to work predictably!
  • @TheRealJayguar
    first 1:30 seconds you already taught me some tricks i didnt know. didnt even know what that marquee tool was for. I was just cutting everything.
  • @nicennice
    Another great video in this brilliant series. "Sped down" though! As a Brit I'm willing allow for the American vernacular but really! Remember you can always fix in post though. Joking aside this series is absolutely fantastic for learning Logic.

    Wow. You mean I can be a better bass player through DAW fanciness as opposed to dexterity in my fingers? Sign me up.
  • Love all the videos man, super helpful! One question on flex time — can you share some insight on how to NOT have your audio warped or garbled or sound off from the original performance when using flex time? I use flex time a lot on guitar to clean up timing and many times it always negatively affects the audio sound of the guitar — I use monophonic typically. I also noticed that the ability to adjust sensitivity to transients is gone which requires annoying clean up of flex markers and quantization in areas you wouldn’t have quantized. Any tips or suggestions greatly appreciated! Thanks!
  • Every time I use flex it destroys my audio. Does anyone know why? It’s like it becomes a 3rd or 4th generation mp3. Using a 2020 MacBook with M1 chip
