Synopsis

Emagic Logic is shipped with several virtual instruments. Though similar to VST instruments (VSTi), they are available only for Logic and thus have been written to tightly integrate with the sequencer and preserve precious CPU resources. Some of these are free with the program and some need to be purchased from Emagic. They range from simple to complex synthesisers alongside virtual emulations of several classic keyboards.

This book covers the set-up and use of these Logic Instruments, along with tips and tricks. There are many 'how to do' features and the book comes complete with hundreds of illustrations and step-by-step diagrams. There are sections on Instrument purchase, demos and installation, using the Instruments within Logic, making the most of CPU power and using the Instruments during a mix down. The book has many programming guides and advice on how to get certain sounds and how to use them in your own songs.

It's the ideal companion book to Making Music with Logic Audio and will help you get the most from Logic Virtual Instruments.
