hiya everybody,

im just wondering with a bit stupid question concerning the environment, im using LE7 almost one year, i never thought to be served with this window and i do not even know in what exactly can i use it..my music sounds fine, recordnig, editing and mixing..bref, still want know to use it just once, i haven`t any clue..

please any help would be very appreciated.

younes.

For a while, you can quite safely get by without the Environment. It is a representation of logic's MIDI and Audio inputs and outputs and is preconfigured for most of the basic instances of using logic. It comes in handy for setting up additional audio and audio instrument tracks, or if you connect external MIDI equipment such as sound modules etc. There are video tutorials you can buy, and some free previews that may give you a little idea at http://www.macprovideo.com/tutorial/logicEnvironment
Good luck

You could look in the manual......

I don't know what is missing in Logic Express - in Logic Pro you can add areggiators, delay lines, channel splitters and chord memorizers. You obviously also get access to all your audio objects and MIDI objects - and you can easily set parameters for several objects at once etc etc etc.

The Environment is the hidden "heart" of Logic - try to learn what it can do.....

or you could ask someone who knows, like me!

Although LE's environment has serious limitations compared with Pro, you can still use it for some creative things. I expect you won't NEED it for anything, except maybe to add some additional external MIDI instruments.

Optional fun for you might be to explore the Arpeggiator. You can cable it between the physical input and the "to recording and thru" object to add arpeggiator to any selected track in the arrange window.

You can use the mapped drums to pre-define where your drum sounds are typically mapped. If you do this, and edit the MIDI for this instrument in the matrix window, you get cool little names overprinted on the little vertical piano in the matrix editor.

For express that's really it. There are some very odd limitations compared to LP, which has enough features to allow users to create their own little MIDI experiments. Although you can do some of this with Express, Pro has the one object you really need to go nuts, the "Transform" object. If Logic Pro had one "super" object, it would be Transform.

Anyhow.. I say, stay a way from the envionrment unless you are a nerd like me. You will only -need- the enviornment to add external MIDI devices to your songs/autoload.

The "Environment Toolkit" is a free download from www.swiftkick.com

It's a good read and really gives you an idea of what the Environment can do, by example.

What does the transform object do?????????
