If you need some reverb or delay to feel comfortable performing — throw it on your track! Let that reverb wash your self-doubt away. Having a hard time hearing yourself in the mix? Throw on the Compressor to level out and bring out your performance.
So you go to town. It turns out Plugins and Busses can add latency too. With the single click of a button, Low Latency Mode turns off all Latency-inducing plugins and routing:.
Any Plugins that causing latency in your session are muted. And now all your Plugins and routing are back in action. Your job is done and life is beautiful. For some of us no matter what we do with the Buffer, Low Latency Mode, or anything else — Latency is just a fact.
Oftentimes the culprit is a Project that has become far too big to manage effectively. Another reason could be the combination of your interface and Mac. A slower connection like USB 1. The solution was to provide you with a separate Mix Software for Direct Monitoring.
Instead of listening to your track through Logic, you hear it directly from your interface. Direct Monitoring has its advantages. Just make sure to turn off Software Monitoring if you do use Direct Monitoring. Things get a little more complicated when you have to think about Latency. Based on your Mac and interface, you may need to find a different way to manage your monitoring latency. Thank you so much for boiling down the complexity to the essentials! Hey Sacha, thanks for the suggestion!
Great article Chris. Super-useful, esp. Many thanks and keep up the good work. In fact, it sets up direct monitoring through that channel strip without having to open the Apogee app or change Logic prefs.
Finally, you can set up an Aux send for some of that awesome ChromaVerb. Very few know about the Direct button or Apogee FX Rack plugins, but this really is a great solution to the monitoring dilemmas you describe. Roger Apogee. Very handy for sure. This is one of the best Why Logic Pro Rules articles.
Today, out of the blue, I started losing hours trying to track down latency issues. Thank you. HI first I wanted to say I really enjoy your tutorials. My issue is a little different. This all mostly makes sense except for this: I have not needed software or input monitoring before, and all of a sudden in the middle of a project I need software monitoring.
Nothing changed. So at least I can keep recording vocals. But what on earth caused this to be different? Any ideas? I have a question regarding direct monitoring. So far all is great. Question is does my recorded audio line up in sync with my project or do I have to compensate that ms manually afterwards? Hey Thematic, thanks for the comment!
Logic handles lining everything up, regardless if you use Direct Monitoring or Software Monitoring. Thank you Chris for clearing this up for me. It sure helps! I come from Cubase and still use a Steinberg audio interface. It has DSP on board with amp models, reverbs etc. So this is good news for me, no need for changing buffers and switch off plugins an such. Thank you! Only the result… otherwise I will hear the audio double.
Maybe a stupid question. The playback stereo out AND the input mono in. Even when you mute the external Moog track, the stereo out, master Volume, etc. I will still hear the input audio. Only when I mute the midi. But muting midit means that the Moog track will not be heard during playback… Mmm…. You can save a lot of time by simply using the record feature on Logic Pro X and then edit later with the plethora of effects and music tools available.
