This is a minor nitpick, but Logic only supports AU’s natively. You can’t do anything except target a tiny little GUI widget and browse a menu. You must click that up/down arrow shown next to Chromaverb above then click a menu item labeled ‘No Plug-in’ to remove a plugin. Maybe that’s a bit hyperbolic, but it sure feels like it sometimes. I think that I spend about 20% of my time mixing in Logic fumbling with that stupid little bar. Yes, I’m talking about that space below the FX. In order to add an FX when there’s an FX present you must click that tiny little bar. I’ve included a screenshot above with an arrow showing the tiny area. When adding plugins there’s a very tiny bar for you to select. Regardless of how it’s done, the way Logic does it is probably the worst. Another excellent option is the way that Studio One handles it where there’s an organized browser with screenshots. Even though you can organize plugins pretty nicely, selecting those plugins requires visually parsing and navigating multi-tiered menus. Solo summing stacks doesn’t work ‘right’Īdding FX in Logic is an exercise in menu diving.Logic Instruments and MIDI Effects Review.Logic Pro X Tips & Tricks and more cool things.Oh right, and this is the last post in the series! My ultimate conclusion is at the end! If I missed something then that’s mea culpa, so please correct me. I wrote a good portion of this before 10.4, but I tried to make sure I erased anything that was improved with the update. I’ve split things in to categories as well so that you can see the portions that are of most interest to you. There won’t be too many images here, so be prepared for a bit of reading and not many eye-catching screenshots.

I will gladly update the post with the information if it’s good. It’s time for the post that everyone seems to love: when I talk about the stuff I dislike about a DAW.įirst things first: If you see anything that’s wrong or know of a great work around then please leave a comment.
