Whats it like working in Paris on music? I was in Paris and it was really 
hard to find music stores.

In the last 3 months I've made a CD's worth of tracks - instrumental 
industrial metal -

Sounds interesting. How do you integrate acoustic guitars and industrial? You 
can post some MP3's to the file section if you want! I often start songs on 
guitar, record them, add the other tracks, then dump the guitar and use the 
other tracks - unless the guitar is extremely integral.

Do you record to a click track? Otherwise what about the tempo? Abelton live 
is really good for adjusting loops. You can tweak the audio with markers, 
export it back to audio, then put it into Logic.

You must be opening the track mixer? You can set up a screenset that only 
shows audio faders, output fader, busss, etc.
