LOGIC PRO X - What are Track Alternatives ?
In this video, Jono shows you Track Alternatives. These are a useful way of being able to record multiple ideas for the same instrument without having to Duplicate Tracks.
Track Alternatives create multiple alphabetised ‘lanes’ for an instrument, letting you toggle between them, recording sketches or ideas as you go. When you’re ready, you can then create a final Track Alternative, to organise or ‘comp’ the best ideas into a single take.
