Info

MIDI Regions and Events MIDI regions, by comparison, actually contain MIDI data events. They are not related to information stored in external files. MIDI regions can be saved as individual files, but they can also be, and generally are, stored as part of the project. MIDI region MIDI note events MIDI controller events The MIDI data events stored within MIDI regions include note, controller, program change, and other information. These data events represent MIDI performances that you have recorded into Logic Pro. MIDI performances are generally created with a MIDI keyboard, but can also be generated with MIDI controllers, MIDI guitars, your computer keyboard, or the mouse. MIDI data events can be affected as a group by processing the MIDI region that contains them. Such processing includes: transposition, quantization (timing correction, which is similar to the spell checker of a word processor, when dealing with the language of music), timing delays, and more. You can also edit individual events within a MIDI region. You do this by opening the region in one of the MIDI editors. These windows allow you to precisely alter the position, length, and pitch of MIDI note events. Other MIDI event types can also be altered in various ways. You can freely enter MIDI data with your MIDI keyboard, the mouse, or computer keyboard in these editors. For more information about MIDI and MIDI event types, see Introduction to MIDI Editing. 26 Chapter 1 Introducing Logic Pro
Setting Up Your System 2 Logic Pro automatically finds and configures supported audio and MIDI hardware when first installed and opened. There are many circumstances in which you may want to enhance or extend this basic automatic configuration. This chapter will help you to optimize your hardware for use with Logic Pro. It also includes background information about components your music production system can incorporate. This chapter covers the following: • Designing Your Music Production System (p. 27) • Connecting Your Audio and MIDI Devices (p. 34) • Using External MIDI Devices (p. 42) • Using External Audio Effects (p. 43) • Configuring Your Audio Hardware (p. 43) • Using Distributed Audio Processing (p. 45) Designing Your Music Production System Your music production system can incorporate far more than your computer and Logic Pro software. A complete Logic Pro studio could conceivably consist of any, or all, of the following components: • A Mac computer and related peripherals, such as a mouse or other pointing device, keyboard, displays, and so on • Additional Mac computers, which can be used to boost the processing power of your Logic Pro system via network connections. These are referred to as Logic Pro Nodes. • Audio and MIDI interfaces • External MIDI sound generators, such as samplers and synthesizers • External audio devices, such as mixers, audio converters, pre-amplifiers, channel strips, effects units, and more 27
