19 Synchronization

Logic can be synchronized with external hardware and

software via a number of different synchronization

protocols.

This chapter discusses the synchronization of Logic—as both synchronization master

and slave—in a number of different situations.

Functions

Switching on External Sync

Activation of the Transport Sync button synchronizes Logic to the chosen sync source.

You can use the Sync button to turn off external sync at any time, without changing

your selected sync source. This allows you to temporarily remove Logic from the sync

master’s time axis. This could prove useful if you need to quickly edit a MIDI Region

while the external sync source (tape machine, VTR, and so on) is still running, for

example.

Recording with External Synchronization

When Record is pressed during external synchronization, Logic enters record mode, but

does not start until it detects external time code.

Incoming MIDI Time Code Display

The flashing dot on the Transport window’s Sync button indicates that Logic is

receiving error-free MIDI time code.

If the dot “sticks”, an error has occurred. Although Logic is capable of dealing with many

MTC errors, you should nevertheless check the quality of your SMPTE signal, as well as

any other potential error sources.
