Pattern creation basics in Logic Pro for iPad
Using Step Sequencer in Logic Pro for iPad, you can create rhythm-based drum patterns and note-based instrument patterns using software instruments. You can start with an empty pattern or use an existing pattern or template as a starting point.
You create a pattern by turning steps on and off, modifying steps using edit modes, and editing aspects of the overall pattern, including the pattern length, the step rate for the pattern, and the pattern key. You can increase the number of notes or drum sounds in a pattern by adding rows and choosing the row assignment. When you activate Learn mode, you can quickly add rows by playing notes or manipulating automation parameters. You can also add your own samples using drag and drop.
Step Sequencer provides many controls and functions for working with patterns. You can modify pattern playback, edit steps and rows, and edit pattern, row, and step settings in the inspector. You can also customize different aspects of Step Sequencer to suit your workflow. See Customize the Step Sequencer interface.
