Click the OK button to replace the color square in the Color palette, and close the Colors

To assign channel strip colors to regions

1

Select the regions.

Tip: If all regions are on a single track, click the track name in the track list to select all
regions.

2

Choose Region > Color Regions by Channel Strips/Instruments in the Arrange area (or
use the corresponding key command, default assignment: Shift-Option-C).

The colors of all selected regions are replaced with the colors of the corresponding channel
strips.

Tip: This feature is handy after copying or moving regions between tracks, when you
may find that the Arrange area resembles a patchwork quilt.

Selecting Regions

You need to select a region before you can perform any edits, functions, or operations
on it. You can select a single or multiple regions, including regions on different tracks
and of different types. When selected, a black bar runs across the upper portion of the
region to indicate its selected status.

Logic Pro provides a number of sophisticated selection methods. For more information
on this, see
