Chapter 9
Working with Audio
in the Arrange
Window
This chapter deals with the audio tracks of the arrange window.
See section Arrange Window from page 107 onwards for the MIDI
tracks.
9.1 Regions
Generating Regions
A region is to an audio track what a sequence is to a MIDI track,
so a region could be referred to as an “Audio Sequence.” The
Logic fun concept allows regions to be manipulated in the
Arrange window in the same way as MIDI sequences. None-
theless, there are unavoidable differences between the two, by
their very nature. A sequence contains MIDI data, and a region
refers to audio data on the hard drive.
When you record audio, a region based on the recording is auto-
matically created in the Arrange window.
Audio files from other songs or other programs can be imported
into a Logic fun song. Simply click at the desired location for
the imported file in the audio track, with the pencil tool, while
holding down the S key. Select the desired audio file from the
File Selector dialog box, and the process is complete.
To play an audio file at a specific Song Position,it must be set as
a region in the Arrange window and placed on an audio track.
