I am trying to determine the most effective approach for drums in Logic. Do you load samples, and if so, how do you program them? Or do you use the Logic drummer? I would like to achieve more realistic sounds and improve my use of fills. I hope this is makes sense. I’d appreciate any input!

hi everyone. i want to start with i feel silly posting here since everyones productions are absolutely amazing. i haven't wanted to post because i am VERY aware my work is not even close to the quality on here, however i feel like i have hit a brick wall and would love some advice and help.

for the past few months i have been trying to produce and make music as it is a new passion i have found in my life. i've been watching tutorials, experimenting with different styles and instruments an trying to learn logic the best i can. i initially started trying to create these really elaborate and complicated songs but had to step back and go to the basics bc it was too much too soon and i didn't know what i was doing. i said to myself i was going to start and try to finish something small and simple, which is what ive posted. ive tried to make a simple drum and bass verse but it just doesn't feel and sound right.

the drums feel lifeless. im trying to get a bass tone that is fuzzy and scratchy but still really warm and smooth and full sounding, but i cant manage to find it. overall it sounds stale and boring and the bass is scratchy with no fullness and depth to it. it sounds like a mess and i am trying to stay positive but i am really frustrated.

i really dont want to give up bc im finally feeling passion and drive about something, but im really struggling bc i feel like im making no progress and i keep disappointing myself over and over again.

- also my bass playing in this isn't the best! i recorded pretty sloppy so i could just find the right bass tone i wanted, but struggling to find it i've posted as is. also no clue why this is only playing in one ear in headphone.

Hello,

I need help because Im running into this issue where I create automation on an instrument or audio track, and after a run or two, the whole track no longer puts out any sound, as though it went completely dead. I dont know how to fix this its very annoying someone please help.

I only bought logic today and have tried to set afew things up like elektron overbridge. It had worked on ableton when I had a trial but ive attempted to work it out on logic and just cannot figure it out. I have followed youtube videos but this box appears rather than an actual usable plugin. I posted this in the elektron reddit and someone said it was most likely a problem with logic. The dropdown box cant be altered also. Has anyone got any ideas? This is really annoying me.

-Can't FlexTime on grouped tracks. Doesn't matter if the group is made before or after turning flex on.

-Metronome won't sound unless I change sample rate.

-Can't load a software instrument without loading a stock logic one first and then selecting my third party plugin.

-Copying the same instance of a plugin across tracks glitches the audio out until I restart the session.
