MIDI is the heart of Logic and Jonathan Perl is the MIDI master. In this course, you learn tons about how to compose and produce with MIDI in Logic Pro X.

 It starts by teaching you how to really work with tracks, channels, regions, and take folders. With that knowledge Jonathan then shows you how to incorporate those techniques to master multiple ways to record and capture your MIDI ideas. Next up is a deep dive of Logic's main MIDI editor: the Piano Roll. Get the secrets of MIDI Draw and see how to customize and animate MIDI effects and performance. From there, Jonathan dives into the Event List, where massive amounts of MIDI data can be massaged with just the click of a mouse!

This course then moves on to a section on rhythmic programming and editing. This is where you explore a ton of Logic's quantization features and tools and learn how to create cool, rhythmic-based effects.
 
Watching this course gives you a strong MIDI foundation and gives you the power to deploy Logic's MIDI tools to precisely tailor accents, timing, scales and MIDI effects. So dive in and get a deep understanding of the power and creativity of MIDI composition in Logic Pro X!

Excellent content and instructor! Great tutorial for new Logic Pro X users as well as semi-experienced users looking to brush up on their skills.

A lot of good info...some of which I knew, some not, but I did find the presenter's volume level to be quite low as well as quickly paced and I often had to go back to hear it. I also felt the insert tips went by way too quickly for me to get them.

This is the second or so basic course I have watched & although there was not much new for me to learn it gave a reinforced understanding of the functions of the groove, quantize & swing sections of the inspector menu's. A must if your new to Logic.

I loved this course. It helped me to really gain a solid understanding on all the MIDI features of Logic Pro X, as well as how to quickly navigate through the menus by providing key commands that are extremely useful. I had to watch this one twice to make sure I understood everything, and it helped me a lot. I'm able to move through the program a lot faster and I really didn't start using the program until after I viewed this course. I highly recommend to anyone looking to get started using Logic Pro X quickly.

Once I've gotten used to Jonathon's speed and delivery, I like the pace. Though it is a little faster than I can really catch the details. But that's what rewind's for.
