2 Enable the Follow Tempo option in the Region Parameter box.
All audio files that follow the song tempo and first key signature are indicated by the
following symbols in Logic:
Note: Follow tempo is actually an audio file tempo operation, not a Region function,
but was included in the Region parameter box for convenience. It is synchronized for
all Regions that make use of the same audio file.
Follow Tempo and Apple Loops
The Follow Tempo option does not create an Apple Loop!
Remember: Apple Loops follow chord changes—should you record a solo over an
arrangement consisting of Apple Loops with transposition changes over time, you
might want to enable Follow Tempo for your solo, but you won’t be happy with the
double transpositions that will occur…
To create an Apple Loop, please use either of the following options:
 Choose Region > Add to Apple Loops Library in the Arrange window. This method
sets transients that are based on the song’s tempo information.
 Choose Audio > Open in Apple Loops Utility in the Arrange window. This
functionality allows you to set the transients manually—independent of the song
tempo.
Please see “Creating Apple Loops” on page 64 for more information on creating Apple
Loops.
The Region Parameter box of looped (not-one-shot) Apple Loops also offers the Follow
Tempo option. If this option is disabled, the Apple Loop will not follow the song tempo
and key. Disabling the Follow Tempo option for a looped (not-one-shot) Apple Loop
does not convert the Apple Loop to a “standard” audio file.
