question about autoloading "SC"——
In video #2... there is a click being used as a side chain for KICK, CLAP and 1&3 notes/hits. These measures are looped at 130bpm... HOWEVER... what happens when you auto load these "SC"s and your bpm is slower or faster? The loops at 120bmmp don't line up. Would appreciate a reply. Cheers for a great series!

Excellent!
Just finished watching this series. Christopher is a great instructor who explains things clearly. His topics are always intriguing and he presents unconventional but interesting ways of doing things in Logic. I especially liked when he talked about pitching the vocals up by a few cents and how he got that from his guitar playing background. Keep them coming Chris!
