Thanks Antoine! I hope you’re doing well!

This really starts to show how useful and CREATIVE this feature is. Most tutorials on the chord track jumped in on day one with a very incomplete set of possibilities. Thanks. Nice and clear.

another cool thing is to create an alias of the session player to use on multiple tracks. this way you can change the chord track on the fly and everything will follow. then you can mute session player if you want. of course you can just change the AU instrument in the session player itself and create multiple players.. but just another method. thanks for the vid.

Brilliant! Thank you for that straightforward and inspiring tutorial. I’ll be on the Logic 11 Chord Track for the next 12 hours straight thanks to you.

I hate to be that guy, but for all the people who are saying this is difficult and stupid. I got a break it to you, if you’re gonna use this appropriately you will need to have a little bit of music theory understanding. You can also place points where the key changes in the song to adjust to the chords that you need. You can make prog metal with this which changes timing and keys throughout the track. If you’re unable to get the cord changer to do what you want it’s probably because you don’t understand another portion of logic. You really need to utilize this new tool with all the ones that we had in order to get the full potential.

Well said! This is a very powerful tool in experienced hands. There is some obvious janky things I notice that could be updated, and add more functionality and intuitive gui is something I wouldn’t be opposed to. This is still sick though! But yeah anybody who thinks you can press 3 buttons and get the exact results you want is shooting themselves in the foot

Exactly what I wanted to know and far more. I could spend all my time learning how to use Logic...or be creative. Despite being a Garageband user forever, I'm struggling in Logic Pro. Every day I watch Logic Pro tutorials. I don't know how much of it sinks in. This was where I was getting hung up with zero knowledge. Thanks.

If you watch some basic videos on getting started and work your way through the parts of the manual that are pertinent to you, it will become much easier. The manual actually is very well-written. Logic is a very powerful and useful program that is worth learning if you're going to make music.

Keep forcing yourself to use Logic… I wouldn’t overwhelm yourself looking at tons of vids on it. Create a small practice song and then keep trying out one new tool or setting each day and really dive into it… over time you will notice a lot of practical knowledge sinking in. It’s well worth the effort! I converted from GarageBand around 6 years ago and still am learning new concepts… it’s a super rich DAW. And don’t let anyone kid you: the stock plugins are extremely powerful as are the stock synths (even owning a variety of the top-tier paid synths like Artiria and U-He Zebra etc) I find I can pull up a Logic Stock synth and get incredible patches from those. Same for effects. PS - Don’t forget about the Help Document that comes with Logic… it answers 99% of anything you can think of. And I also keep the “?” tool enabled at all times with gives you instantaneous info on anything you are using. Best of luck to ya! 👍🏻

Sorry if this was discussed in the tutorial but is there a way to convert a midi region into a chord track region? I am talking about a midi region that has no chord labels. In the tutorial where he just drags & drops the region onto the chord track the chords in the region are already labelled. What I am asking for is logic to analyze the midi region, identify the chords and then create a chord track region with that information

@@knuckledustermusic Yeah, that would make my job much easier cause I prefer to play things in. Come to think about it though, logic's chord detection system can be pretty stupid at times and has little context awareness, so they might need to update it too for this idea to work.

Hello Goerges! great tutorial!! Is there a way to drag and drop an existing piano region from an older logic session into the global track in order to be able to have the session players follow? It's been very cumbersome to recreate my chord progressions in the global chord track. It would be great if you could record directly to the global chord track!

@knuckledustermusic

Unfortunately this isn't a feature yet. You can play in a chord and Logic Pro will analyze it. So you could play your existing MIDI region bar by bar and have Logic analyze the chords.

Can you change the tab so it moves by 2 beats if you. song changes chords every 2 beats instead of every measure? Thanks for a great tutorial.

@knuckledustermusic

Not that I can find, but a work around is to input your chords (every measure) and then select all the chords, right click, select "Double Chord Rhythm" which will shorten the length of the chords. Cheers Georges

Is there a way to export a chord track to be used in a different project?

@knuckledustermusic

2 ай бұрын

You can copy the chord track and then paste it into a new project. Unfortunately you can't currently import the chord track like you can with other track settings.

I love the idea of the feature, but the ux is nearly unusable if the chords aren’t nicely 1 chord per bar. Does anyone have any tips? It can’t be used for songwriting because of how clunky it is but just good enough to struggle through if the idea is already composed.

@terje6522

My experience is different. It works very well where chords change off beat and not on the bar lines. In the cases Ive used it, the session players is changing pressing and accents in aa good musical way when you drag the chord change around.

why cant it just tranlate my midi chords to the chord track? how could the developers overlook this needed function?

Totally agree... Logic could have waited to release such a dumb implementation, and released it when you could do it both ways ie create your chords and drag those chords to the chord track and voila.... it will be inevitable at some point anyways....

Actually, this a very old feature from Logic 7 that has been brought back and improved.

For me, when I first switch to 6/8 it'll keep the current chord track as if it were 4/4. If you delete the chord track and start again then they line up at the beginning of each 6/8 bar. You can move any chord to make it line up wherever you'd like. I hope that helps. Cheers Georges

@@knuckledustermusic It's a great feature. One thing I did with it (I haven't had a chance to watch all of your video, so you might talk about this) is that if you have the chord track set up, you can make a bass session player to play the simplest bass line ever, just whole notes, convert that to midi, and now you have a template to copy for basic midi stuff like pads, etc.

George im sure you realize Apple logic has dropped the bomb on this one. i tip may hat at your atempt to try to explain the use of this mess. It is totaly tedious and lack of productivity to be limited to inserting chords manually one chord at a time for an entire song. using this chord track for session players is both innovative and idiotic at the same time.

I IS very frustrating, you have to manually enter every single chord and progression of the song and you cant transpose

waste of time to spend all day typing in chords just to get a bass guitar to play along with me.
