Chapter 3 Arrange Window 139
Soloing Regions
You can solo any selected Regions by using the Solo button in the Transport window,
or the key command of the same name.
Double-clicking on the Solo button or using the Solo Lock key command “locks” the
soloed status, so that changing the selection doesn’t affect what is being soloed. This is
especially useful when you want to make changes to the playback parameters of a
Region, while listening to a specific solo group.
Another click (or reusing the key command) exits solo mode. For more on this, read the
Solo and Solo Lock sections (see “Mode Buttons” on page 96).
When the Solo function is activated, the Bar Ruler will change from gray to yellow,
making it easy to see that Solo is engaged.
The Solo tool (see “Selecting Tools on page 17) enables you to solo individual or
selected Regions, by click-holding on them. You can also scrub the Region by moving
the mouse horizontally. If Logic is in play mode, solo playback starts as soon as you
stop scrubbing. Release the mouse button to end solo auditioning.
Naming a Region
Click the Region with the Text tool (see “The Tools” on page 18), and a text input box
will appear. Enter the desired name and press Enter, or click another Region or the
Arrange area background to exit text input mode.
The same applies if entering a name in the Region Parameter box.
Multiple Naming
Select a group of Regions (with the rubber band, for example), and click one of them
with the Text tool. A text input box will appear, allowing you to name the Region. All
Regions are assigned same name.
With Incrementing Numbers
If you end the name of the Region with a number, all selected Regions are assigned the
same name, but are incrementally numbered (region 1, region 2, region 3, and so on).
They are numbered in accordance with their temporal (time) positions. If you want all
Regions to end with the same number, just add a space after the number.
The above also applies if you enter the name in the top line of the Region Parameter
box, rather than use the text tool.
Transferring Track Names to Regions
A quick reminder: the track name is normally used as the default name for any Regions
recorded on it. If you have copied Regions from another track, however, and want to
name them after the destination track, use the Region > Track Names to Regions
function.
