About this course

Composer Dov Waterman opens his six-volume Composition & Creativity in Logic Pro series with the most under-appreciated topic in production: the setup. Volume 1 is about getting Logic to work for you - building a sound palette as a personal template, mastering key commands so the interface fades away, organising the library, customising the toolbar, and using screen sets to switch instantly between writing and mixing layouts. End-of-section assignment: build your own template.

This volume isn't about making music yet - it's about removing every friction between an idea and its capture. Continue with Volume 2 (Synthesis & Beat Programming) for sound generation.

Who it's for

  • Composers with some Logic experience looking for a creative workflow
  • Producers who want to spend less time fighting the interface
  • Self-taught Logic users adding professional structure

What you'll learn

  • Build a personal sound-palette template tuned to your style
  • Customise key commands so the interface fades away
  • Use screen sets to switch instantly between writing and mixing

What you'll need

  • Logic Pro on a Mac with some prior familiarity
  • A MIDI controller helpful for mapping smart controls
  • A current project (or starter idea) to template against
