Thanks for watching bye Share this article Repeat this process multiple times and change from track A to track B and B to A (like you would do on a regular dj mixer with 2 players) until your mashup or mixtape in Logic Pro X in done. It is easier to exit automation mode by pressing A again.Īnd go back in automation mode if the song is aligned. The automation itself is still in tactĪfter this mix is complete, add a third song on track A If you decide to remove an automation lane, you only remove the visibility of the automation. You can do this by clicking on the plus icon on the left side af an automation lane and choose the parameter you want to automate WHAT you want to automate you can change in the pull-down menu on the left of the track To add points, click on the yellow line (in this case the volume), and drag the point to the desired value.

Next I beatmatch the song to the beatgrid of Logic Pro X. I set the song to the right tempo in the time and pitch machine. I use 2 extra tracks for sound effects and previewing the song.Īfter I added the first song, I add the automation lanes for an equalizer (high cut and low cut filters) and the volume.
