Re: [Logic_Cafe] Talking of stupid things....

If you record audio in Logic, it places markers so you can change the tempo later. If you are just changing the time signature (as in 4:4 to 5:4) I didn;t think it would change the audio, but if so, lock the audio first before making the change in time signature, then unlock it afterward.

I am building a song with a mixture of audio and midi tracks, and - 
not for the first time - I forgot to set the time signature when I 
started. So, I imported my audio tracks, which - of course, are at the 
right speed (and one of which had a basic rhythm track). I then 
recorded some string part fillers using Logic, then came to add the 
rhythm tracks and found out I was in completely the wrong tempo. So 
all of the midi tracks were totally wasted, all of the positioning of 
the audio tracks then came to be out of place and I wasted a few 
hours, all for want of setting the time signature right at the start.

Let it be a warning to others who have less discipline in what they do 
than they really ought to!
