This chapter introduces you to Logic’s Helper plug-ins.

This includes the Tuner, Gain, and Levelmeter plug-ins.

Tuner

The ET1 Tuner plug-in can be used to tune acoustic instruments. This ensures that
software instruments, existing samples or recordings are perfectly tuned to any new
acoustic recordings you may make.

You would normally insert the ET1 Tuner into an Input fader channel.

Use couldn’t be simpler. There is a single tuning control at the bottom of the ET1 Tuner
interface. To adjust, simply click and drag it to the desired pitch for A. By default, the
ET1 Tuner is set to concert pitch A = 440 Hz.

The Keynote and Octave panels display the incoming note pitch, and the octave that
the incoming note belongs to. This matches the MIDI octave range, with the C above
middle C displayed as C4, and middle C displayed as C3.
