70 Chapter 7 Mixer, Instruments, and Effects
Using the Mixer and Plug-ins
Logic offers two types of plug-ins: software instruments and effects.
Software Instruments
Audio Instrument Objects are designed for use with software-based synthesizers such
as those delivered with Logic and/or Audio Units instruments from other
manufacturers.
Note: Coverage of all Logic instruments can be found in the Logic Pro 7 Plug-In
Reference or Logic Express 7 Plug-In Reference (depending on where you are using Logic
Pro or Logic Express).
If an Audio Instrument Object already exists within the Environment it can simply be
selected from the hierarchical pull-down menu in the Arrange window Track List. If no
such Object exists, it can easily be created as described in the “Creating Audio Objects”
section on page 68.
The Tutorial song makes use of several ES1 instances.
Please select one of the ES1 tracks, and take a look at the Arrange channel strip to the left
of the Arrange window. Below the I/O text on the channel, you will see a blue ES1 label.
• Click-holding on this label will allow you to select one of the available instruments
from the hierarchical menu that launches. Just browse to the desired instrument
name, and release the mouse button. A Plug-in window, containing the selected
instrument, will launch.
