How to Play Voice Track Over Beat

Get started with Logic Pro audio tracks

You can record sound from a microphone, or from an electric instrument (such as an electric guitar) connected to your computer, on an audio track in the Tracks area. The recording appears as an audio region on the selected audio track, showing an audio waveform. You can arrange and edit audio regions in the Tracks area, and edit them in a close-up view in the Get started with the Logic Pro Audio Track Editor.

When you add a track, you can choose a patch for the track in the Library. You can quickly audition patches to find the one you want to use, and change the effects for an audio track by choosing a different patch. Each audio patch contains one or more audio effects, and can include sends and other routing settings.

Logic Pro includes a metronome, which plays a steady beat to help you play in time while recording. You can have the metronome play as you record, or only play a one-bar count-in before recording starts.

Add an audio track

1. In the Logic Pro toolbar, click the Add Tracks button .

2. Click one of the two Audio icons at the top of the New Tracks dialog.

   • To create an audio track for recording from a microphone: Click the Microphone icon.

   • To create an audio track for recording a guitar or bass connected to your computer: Click the Guitar icon.

   

3. If necessary, click the Details triangle to open the bottom of the dialog.

4. Choose the audio device and input channel (or stereo pair) from the Input pop-up menu on the left.

5. Make sure that "Output 1-2" appears on the Output pop-up menu on the right.

6. Click Create.

Choose an audio patch

1. In the Logic Pro Library, click a category on the left.

2. Click a patch name on the right.

You can audition audio patches by clicking them, then playing your instrument, singing, or making sound, to find the one you want to use. For more information about choosing patches, see Logic Pro patches overview.

Prepare for audio recording

Before you start recording audio in Logic Pro, do the following:

• Make sure that your microphone or instrument, and any other audio equipment you're using, such as an audio interface, is connected to the audio input on your computer, and is working.

• Make sure there is enough free storage space on your computer or connected storage device.

• Sing or play, and check the input level meter in the track header to be sure that the track is receiving the audio signal.

• To hear the sound from your microphone or instrument while you're recording, click the Input Monitoring button in the track header.

  

Record on an audio track

1. In the Logic Pro track list, select the header of the audio track you want to record on.

2. Move the playhead to the point where you want to start recording.

3. Click the Record button in the control bar (or press R) to start recording.

4. Start singing or play your instrument.

   After a one-bar count-in, recording starts. The recording appears as a new audio region on the track as you record.

   

5. Click the Stop button in the control bar (or press the Space bar) to stop recording.

   

You can record multiple takes simultaneously, and quickly create comps of the best moments from each take.
