The Browser in Logic Pro for iPad includes Patterns view, where you can choose and save patterns and templates. Patterns view contains a variety of premade patterns for drums, bass, keys, and other instrument categories that you can use in your projects. Patterns view also features templates, which include pattern, row, and step settings but with an empty step grid that you can use as a starting point for creating patterns.
Patterns can also be contained in pattern loops. A pattern loop contains the patch for the pattern’s sound as well as the pattern, row, and step settings and the step values. Loops view in the Browser includes a collection of pattern loops that you can use in your projects. You add pattern loops to the Tracks area or the Live Loops grid in the same way as other loops.

Touch and hold a pattern loop, then drag it to a software instrument track. If regions already exist on the track, the pattern loop uses the existing track instrument; if the track is empty, the track uses the patch (including the instrument) saved with the pattern. You can also drag a pattern loop to the area below the last track header.
