BY: KATIE MORGAN. How to Make a Radio Advert and a Guide to Logic! What is Logic?  Logic is a recording studio that is professional.  It can only be used on a Mini Mac from Apple.  This software allows you to write and record your own music.  Furthermore you can edit it and change whenever you like.  Mixing tracks is easy. Plus, you can create different versions of it.  A range of instruments can be used. This is from drums to woodwind.  You can add effects and change the pitch.  The oscillation and filter can be changed.  Sometimes you will have change the octave on the MIDI Keyboard.  There are lots of sounds in the Sound Library.  Loops can be added.  Along with reverb, ambience etc.  Your voice can be recorded with a microphone.  Also, you can create sound or music for a video by importing the video into logic.  A MIDI Keyboard is a keyboard that lets you play and make any tune. BY: KATIE MORGAN.  The MIDI Keyboard can be plugged into your Mini Mac and sends a signal to Logic.  The notes and chords that you play can be viewed in the Piano Roll.  The timing can be edited and the waveforms can be corrected.  Finally you can use Automation.  It's a really good software to use. The MIDI Keyboard:  This is how the MIDI Keyboard is set up to the computer. The Mini Mac has everything plugged into it. It is the main source! Also, you can plug headphones into the MIDI Keyboard.  The octave can sometimes affect the sound of the instrument. This is because some notes maybe silence. So, you can change it by pressing the up and down buttons. BY: KATIE MORGAN.  Furthermore if the green light is showing then it is set on the middle octave. But, a red light means that octave is before or after the middle octave. However, that does not matter because the selected octave will go with the selected instrument. MIDI stands for: Music Instrument Digital Interface! Software Instruments and Audio Channels: You can add and delete these tracks. To get a new Software Instrument track click on the plus button that is beside the heading ‘Global Tracks’ Then select ‘Software Instrument’ and then click ‘Create’ at the bottom. To get a new Audio track click on the plus button that is beside the heading ‘Global Tracks’ Then select ‘Audio’ and then click ‘Create’ at the bottom. BY: KATIE MORGAN. Audio Channels can be added in from your own files. You just go to file, import audio file and then choose the file that you want. To add in Logic’s Software Instruments click on Media which is on the far right. Then choose the instrument that you would like to use. (You can also click Search Library and type in the instrument that you would like to use). The Transport Bar: This includes:  Start  End BY: KATIE MORGAN.  Rewind  Fast Forward  Stop  Play  Pause  Record The Inspector (Press the ‘I’ button on the QWERTY Keyboard): This function allows you to edit your tacks and sound. For example, you can adjust the volume of different tracks. Also, you can change the EQ (the levels of frequency). Plus, you can add things like delay, echo etc. in too your work. The Tempo Display! The Editors allows you to mix and edit midi and audio regions. BY: KATIE MORGAN. EQ: The Tool Box:  Pointer Tool- This is the cursor. It allows you to click on things in logic.  Pencil Tool- This tool allows you to draw notes in the piano roll.  Eraser Tool- This tool allows you to delete things that you don’t need any more. BY: KATIE MORGAN.  Finger Tool- This tool allows you to grab notes and change their length. You can make them longer or shorter.  Scissors Tool- This tool allows you to spilt notes/audio in half.  Glue Tool- This tool allows you to select multiple regions. This is by dragging them. Then you click them with this tool.  Mute Tool- This tool allows you to turn off a sound and you can always put it back on.  Quantize Tool- With the pointer tool highlight the notes that you would like to quantize. Then press ‘q’ on the QWERTY keyboard or go to the tool box and click on the quantize tool. This makes the notes sound in time with everything else. (This changes the rhythm).  Velocity Tool- This tool allows you to change the force of the notes. So, say if you hit the key hard the sound would be loud. However, this tool can make it quieter. To use the velocity tool go in the tool box and click on it. Then click on the note that you would like to change the velocity of. Go up for a higher velocity and go down for a lower velocity.  Zoom Tool- This tool allows you to make your working area zoom in. So, you get a close-up view of your work.  Brush Tool- This tool allows you to paint in more than one note on the piano roll at a time.  Automation Select Tool- Click on this tool and drag any control point.  Automation Curve Tool- The same goes with this tool. However, remember to click on the right tool. BY: KATIE MORGAN.  Marquee Tool- This tool allows you to select and edit parts from one or more regions.  Flex Tool- This tool allows you to edit the timing of audio. So, once you have selected this tool place it over the region body. Then, drag it. This creates three markers called: the transient maker, the previous transient marker and the following transient marker. Then select the marquee tool to edit all of the parts that need editing. Automation (Press the A key on the QWERTY keyboard): This allows you to fade sounds and pan them. It also allows you to change the sound of certain parts of the sounds. For example, you can make one sound get louder and louder. This creates an effect! BY: KATIE MORGAN. The Piano Roll: This is the place where you can view and edit your music. You can move the notes up and down, change the length of them, delete them and add in more notes. The Score: You can view your music as musical notes by click on score. Note that you can’t edit on the score you’ll have to go back to the Piano Roll. Loops: To loop go to the end of a MIDI Region and you will see the loop sign (look on the screen shot). Then drag it to the right to create a loop. BY: KATIE MORGAN. How to create a new project: Open Logic and click on Empty Project. This should bring you to a blank project. How to open your project: Open Logic and click on file then Open or Open Recent. How to save your project: If you project is new and you have not saved it then click on Save As. Then find a place to put it. However, if you have saved it before then click on Save. Also, BY: KATIE MORGAN. remember to type in your projects name and then click browse! (Not shown in screen shot). Bouncing: To bounce your project go to file, bounce. Then, go to where it says destination and tick MP3. Finally click bounce in the bottom right. (Not shown in screen shot). Remember, to check the settings and make sure that you click on the right tab. BY: KATIE MORGAN. Exporting: To export your project go to file, export. Important Keywords: Keywords from Logic:  Arrange Window- The working window of Logic. (Editors and arrange area).  Arrange Area- The working space of Logic. (Recording, editing and MIDI and Audio Regions).  Bar Ruler- This includes the beats and beats divisions.  Playhead- This is the white vertical line that tells you the current playing position of your project’s tracks.  Left and Right Locaters- This is tells you the start and end of the cycle range with the bar ruler.  Cycle Function- This function repeats nonstop between left and right parts of the locaters. BY: KATIE MORGAN. Evaluation: Why, was the task set?  The Logic Guide task was set to help us use Logic confidently. Also, we can refer to our guides if we need help with using logic. Furthermore, we can use it as research.  The radio advert task was set because radio adverts have music in them and they are challenging to create. This is because they are of different lengths. (1 minute, 30 seconds and 10 seconds). How successful did my group’s radio advert project go?  My uploads/Litterature/ how-to-make-a-radio-advert-and-a-guide-to-logic-what-is-logic.pdf
