| 11.04.2010 Logic 9 Multiple Oscillators / Reason 4 Combinator Equivalent | 3 | 10.05.2010 |
| Something I've wondered for a while now is whether there is anything in Logic 9 that can be utilised in a similar way to Reason's combinator in terms of controlling multiple instruments with one midi track.

| I just got Logic 9 and there is something I've always wondered how to do since I began making music. The question is, how do you gradually open up the gate on one track and record it as you are opening it up? Like starting out staccato and and then opening it up to legato. I can't seem… | ||

| 26.04.2010 Kick/Bass sidechain compression | 4 | 30.04.2010 |
| Can anyone make a recommendation on what kind of compression I should use on my Kick/Bassline sidechain? For example, usually I use a ratio of anywhere from 4:1 to about 5.5:1 for the kick with a fairly slow attack. Is there anything I need to consider when sidechaining it with my bassline? | ||
