µ
Choose the Slow Down parameter, and modify the value accordingly.
Deleting a Fade
You can delete a fade with the Crossfade tool, or by modifying the parameters in the
Inspector’s Region Parameter box.
To delete a fade
Do one of the following:
µ
Control-click an existing fade area, then choose Remove Fade from the shortcut menu.
µ
Option-click an existing fade area with the Crossfade tool.
µ
Set the Fade In or Fade Out parameter in the Region Parameter box to 0.
Deleting Fade Files
Use of the Options > Audio > Delete All Fade Files command deletes the fade file. No
information will be lost by doing this, because Logic Pro automatically creates a new fade
file the next time playback is started, based on the fade parameters of each audio region.
Fading Apple Loops
You can apply fades to Apple Loops audio files. Fade parameters are displayed in the
Region Parameter box when an Apple Loops audio file is selected.
Setting Region Parameters
The parameters displayed in the Inspector’s Region Parameter box depend on the region
type selected in the Arrange area. Some parameters are:
• Available for audio and MIDI regions
• Only available for audio regions
• Only available for MIDI regions
Note: The MIDI region parameters also apply to folders, and globally affect all MIDI regions
within them.
Common Audio and MIDI Region Parameters
The following common parameters are available when either audio or MIDI regions are
selected.
• Quantize: All note events contained in the MIDI region are time-corrected to the
(quantize) grid format chosen in the menu. Full details on all quantization functions
available in Logic Pro are found in
Quantizing Audio and MIDI .
• Q-Swing: This percentage value alters the position of every second point in the current
quantization grid. Values over 50% delay the beats. Values under 50% pre-delay them.
The most practical settings fall between 50% and 75%, imparting a swing feel to strictly
quantized (or tightly played) audio or MIDI regions.
