Episode Synopsis

As an Apple Distinguished Educator (ADE), I was able to attend a Logic Pro session last week, and was inspired to learn the new Sampler. As part of the ADE Festival of Learning, I wrote this piece for the Creativity Challenge Week 2: The 1-5-6-4 Song!

I liked the sound of a loop in Logic, but wanted a different melody, so I sampled the loop, mapped it to a keyboard, and a new melody. I did a similar workflow for a fuzzy bass synth--I liked that loop, but needed it to be a 1-5-6-4 progression for the #1564challenge.

I still love GarageBand, especially for podcast editing, but am definitely beginning to use Logic Pro for songwriting and for more complex audio editing.
