 Move Locators Forward by Cycle and Move Locators Backwards by Cycle Length: Move
the cycled passage by its own length.
 Move Locators Left by Cycle: Retains the existing cycle, but moves it to the left by the
cycle length. As an example, if the cycle is 4 bars long, and spans bars 12 to 16, using
this command will move the cycle four bars to the left, resulting in a cycle from bar 8
to 12.
 Move Locators Right by Cycle: As above, but moves the cycle to the right.
 Cycle: Enables or disables repeated playback or recording over a project section. The
cycle boundaries are reflected (or set) by the left and right locator values.
 Autopunch: Enables or disables a recording start and end point. It is commonly used
in conjunction with the left and right autopunch locators to automatically record
over a particular project section. This method is often used to fix a mistake in a vocal
or instrumental recording.
 Set Left Autopunch Point by Playhead: The current playhead position is used to define
the left autopunch locator value.
 Set Right Autopunch Point by Playhead: The current playhead position is used to
define the right autopunch locator value.
 Replace: Enables a new recording to overwrite an existing recording.
 Solo: Only selected regions are played, all other regions are muted.
 Sync: Activate to synchronize Logic Express with an external source (make
Logic Express the synchronization slave to another device). Control-click or click-hold
this button to open the Synchronization menu.
 Click: Used to turn the Logic Express internal metronome on and off. Control-click or
click-hold this button to open the Metronome menu.
 Master Level: Click to display a volume slider at the right of the Transport bar. This
slider is directly tied to the Master channel in the Mixer, and acts as a master level
control for all audio and software instrument tracks.
