Unless the timing really does drift dramatically, matching the first beat in every bar should be enough. Advance along the track doing this once for every bar. Using your pointer tool, click on a bar marker on the Beat mapping track, and drag down to the transient which matches that beat position. Use the sensitivity box to increase or decrease the number of transients to suit. Logic will display lines to indicate what it calls the 'transients' on that track, below the bar and beat markers. With the track selected, click 'Analyse' in the beat mapping section. OK, so the acoustic guitar got recorded on the track previously called Bass. Again, something like a kick track is ideal, but in this case I didn't have that luxury and used an acoustic guitar track (yes, I know the picture says 'Sam Bass'. Now select the track that you're going to use to set the tempo and define the bars.

So use the View menu in the arrange window to display your Beat mapping. You'll probably need to expose it by modifying the Global Track configuration. When you have a good idea of the average tempo, set it in the transport bar.īeat mapping is a 'Global Track'. Use the BPM counter plugin on one track to give you some idea of the general tempo - preferably something simple like a kick. Unless you've already fiddled with it, your current BPM is likely to be set to 120bpm. So select all regions, and using the contextual menu, choose 'Lock SMTPE position'. Otherwise, if your regions start at different positions or you have multiple regions per track, Logic will happily shift the regions to match the new bar positions you're going to create and your recording will fall apart. This is essential, and not always mentioned in other tutorials: lock your regions to SMTPE time code before you start.
