Yo Apple, hire this guy to do tutorial videos on Logic Pro X and the next ones as well.

Anyone new to Logic Pro x or just starting out, I highly recommend watching parts 1 & 2. I learned so much from them, my producing skills increased massively with in days. Many Thanks!!

MY MIND IS BLOWN! I seriously want to thank Professor Jono Buchanan and the Guildhall Schools Electronic Music Department for their efforts to help others via youtube, for people like me who cant afford more education but want to learn. You could have chose to charge for this seminar, but chose not to. I wish I had known these simple tools years ago. I have been doing things the hard way for so long, unnecessarily creating an overwhelming workload. Which at times makes me procrastinate finishing projects. Not only was it extensively informative, but this video and presentation were produced with outstanding professional quality. The audio and visual kept me on the edge of my seat until the end. I couldn't stop rewinding so I could take notes and get screenshots. A+ work IMO. I will share this video to others in the future.

This is one of the most thorough integrative and comprehensive presentations of Logic i have seen on the net! Thanks!

This has to be one of the most valuable Logic Pro X tutoriales all over the internet. Thanks a lot.

never heard compression defined so well. Thank you Jono

when working with brush tool in the edit mode, you can hold Shift Button so as you drag without changing note

I liked Tom's little drum skip at the beginning, it didn't sound like a mistake. I've learned so much from watching this, time well spent, thank you.

This is the most comprehensive and best presentation I have seen on Logic Pro X to this date! Many thanks!

I use Logic every day, and while I don't nearly consider myself a pro, I know my way around it pretty well. That being said, there have always been parts of Logic that I've just pretended don't exist, so I don't have to figure them out! This is incredibly useful for anyone looking to hone their Logic prowess or just realize they've been doing things the hard way for years. This is seriously good stuff.

Probably the most thorough and simply explained Logic series out there, watched through the whole thing! Thank you very much!

The best thing is the brilliant way that compressors are demonstrated here. Simple and effective. Great video. Thanks

This is super well done. 4 years into working with logic and I was able to get some great takeaways from this. The midi paint with collapse mode? Where have you been my whole life.

I'm not sure, if I've ever seen such a good tutorial on something. This guy is truly amazing! So easy to understand yet very detailed!! Love this!

Absolutely love this video! I've been watching tons of tutorials, and only know the basics. This opened me up to different work flows and showed me the simpler ways of doing things that usually seemed meticulous.

Wow! What a masterclass. I'm starting into Logic and watched hundreds of tutorials and this is by far the best I've seen

Amazing and throughout tutorial! The guy is clearly motivated, explains the most important things, leaves out the (at that point) unnecessary explanations and made it clear to understand even for Logic Pro X and recording newcomers. The best introduction to this fantastic software suite and musical production I have ever seen. And he managed to put it into a nutshell! Thanks

These videos have to be amongst the very best Logic tutorials I've seen on RU-vid. Many thanks to Mr Buchanan and all involved.

Sir I must say. With this video, it felt as though i was present at this seminar.One Million likes. I Loved every bit.

I've been waiting for some kind of Logic Pro X class! Thanks for posting this video. It's much appreciated!

I have been looking for such a tutorial for almost a year. What a way have put Logic Pro work so simple. You re truly a genius. Pls upload more videos. Thanks a ton!

I’ve dabbled with Logic Pro on and off over many years but this video has been so useful. If only I had watched this years ago. I’ve learned loads, thank you!

This masterclass is brilliantly well explained ! I've been using Logic for 8 years now and I've never seen such an instructive and well detailed course ! Thank you very much !

Truly a "master" class. I've learnt so much and now on to part 2. Thanks!

Both parts are brilliant. My deepest gratitude to all involved and making this available.

Man i love the way you Brits get to the piont mate. Thank yu brilliant and one of the most insightful classes. Thanks man ive been working with Logic for years now and im lazing in learning and studying advanced techniques, all which are greatly needed now. Cheers Cas

This is the best production masterclass I've seen in a long time

Totally brilliant presentation by Professor John Buchanan. My Mum won a scholarship to the Guildhall school of music and studied there with (Sir) George Martin back in the 1940's. Great channel and know my Mum would have enjoyed this if she were still alive.

May be one of the better course for Logic in RU-vid. J. Buchanan is very didactic and efficient. He wastes no time explaining what he wants to show us.

Thank you all so much for making these available. As a logic user, i know I’m not using the program to its ultimate potential, and these videos make a huge difference

Only 15 minutes in and learnt so much! Thank you for this!

I've been watching several hours worth of DAW tutorials and guides. After seeing this, I immediately was able to decide which DAW I'm going to use. Logic is the one that stands out above them all.

I could watch this guy all day. Jono is extremely knowledgeable, compelling and, most importantly, precise

When I started using Logic Pro X, I PAID good $$$ for courses that weren't as well presented and as thorough as this is. What an amazing job he has done. What a great gift to the community of musicians and producers that are learning their craft. I found tips and techniques in this seminar that are useful even to advanced users.

That drum playing is so accurate it seems quantized already. Thanks for the informative video!

Thank you for making this available to the masses. Great information!!!

Wow, my brain got a little bit bigger thanks to this Masterclass, man you’re a great teacher! Thanks from the bottom of my heart.

This masterclass is pure gold. I thought that this masterclass will be about the functionalities specific to logic etc. but its actually an extremely useful class for learning music production in general. Absolute thanks to Guildhall School of Music and Drama

This is the beginning of my music journey! Im so glad i found this Masterclass!

I can’t even begin to tell you how helpful this video is. I’m new to Logic Pro X, and I learned so much from this. Thank you!

Exceptional Instructions to Logic X 10.4 THIS MASTER CLASS BY A FAR MARGIN, Will make Expert's of us all Viewing. Thank you to everyone that made this possible.

I have learned so much. Thank you. Being able to quantize audio... WOW!!!

This is one of the best masterclasses on Logic Pro x and I wish I have seen it on youtube when I bought my Apple studio same year. I have learned a lot from this masterclass. Thanks.

This is an amazingly well-done tutorial. Really clear explanation, real-world examples, and a great balance of Logic-specific details and general music/recording context. Thanks for putting this out there!

Jono was my first Logic teacher 13 years ago at Guildhall. He's the best!

This masterclass on Logic is literally a masterful presentation. I learned more from this video as in the past 2 months starting to learn Logic. Thanks for this gem!

Thank for making this lecture public. That was much better explained that any videos I’ve looked through.

I echo the positive sentiments so far. This has been a greaat help to me as a beginner. Huge thanks to all involved. What a cracking resource. Onto part 2...

That was totally incredible. My life is forever changed.

Wow. I am so glad I clicked play. To think I was using my tools so inefficiently. You have saved me a lot of time, and liberated much of my energy to creativity. All I can say is thank you.

Someone like me with no musical software background is learning so much from this guy. Why pay $1000's of dollars to go to audio school if he explains it down perfectly. Thanks alot bro.

I'm only 10 minutes in I need a break I'm learning too much Hahah THANK YOU FOR THIS

This is the best tutorial I have seen in RU-vid so far!

WOW. A brilliant demo of how to use Logic Pro X. Thank you very much for making this available. I've just subscribed and will share this link often.

I learned so much more from this than any other Logic tutorials. Thanks for creating this!

Probably the best video on Logic Pro X on the Internet today.

This is amazing!! It's thorough and gives great advice on music production in Logic! Great teacher as well.

YOUR AN AMAZING INSTRUCTOR. GREAT BREAK DOWN OF EVERYTHING. THESE PEOPLE TEACHING FORGET IF WERE TRYING TO LEARN WE DONT KNOW WHAT YOU KNOW AND REALLY SUCK AT GIVING GOOD UNDERSTANDING!!! GREAT JOB

This is one of the best videos on Logic Pro X I've seen. Thank you.

Thx so much for coming 🤷‍♀️

Such a valuable course. Thanks for making it public. Thanks Guildhall School of Music & Drama and professor Jono Buchanan for this impressive masterclass !

This is soooooooooo useful omg. Best tutorial I've ever watched on youtube!! Thank you!

Amazing presentation. I cannot thank you enough. Probably the best class I’ve ever… 2 hours that helped change everything

Definitely worth a watch, within the first 10 minutes I learned a couple invaluable functions that honestly everyone who uses logic should know. Grade A material here.

This is a great two part video overview and explanation.

Been using Logic Pro for years and I cannot tell how much I learned in this one video

I am a person with experience in music editing believe me this is the best I've seen =)

Can't believe this is available to everyone.. thank you!!

this is amazing! thank you sooo much for uploading!!!!

this is the most useful tutorial on Logic Pro I ever seen... I learned so many things in 1 hour... many thanks for sharing that!!!

Excellent building block approach tutorial while also stopping by to share techniques and explanations of fundamental and more advanced options/functions. Brilliant!

12 minutes in -- this is amazing!

A little late to this party, but thank you so much for releasing this masterclass; it’s so informative and incredibly helpful to this enthusiastic beginner.

This is absolutely brilliant! Thanks for sharing such good content for free!!!

Been using Logic on and off for years (used FL for a long time as well, once my mac broke i used it full time) but I got a new mac and I'm getting back into Logic this is a great refresher

This is super informative I just made the jump from garageband to logic pro x and this is exactly what I needed. Thanks!

Professor Jono Buchanan is a force of nature, but the music, indeed the sound of an instrument has become a file. Thanks for sharing the lesson.

Drum recording has always been such a mystery to me and this really clarified a ton. Fantastic and concise video.

Thank You Mr Buchanan for this Great Masterclass . For me , you are undoutedly the best audio engineering teacher out there in this whole wide world . ♠️

An amazing presentation, I feel like I understand this just a bit more, so very comprehensive, Thanks!

Outstanding summary, Jono. On to Part 2!

Amazing lecture! My daughter is a student at CYM, I just set up a little home studio for her. This will be precious to her, thank you.

Amazing video! I studied music technology for 3 years and this masterclass summed up lots of the key things I learnt, and whilst opening my eyes to even more things unbeknown to me.

So many kids love Ableton but honestly i know Logic so well I can do anything I want in the program.

BEAUTIFUL Logic Pro and even mixing class. Thank you!

This was amazing lecture. I was playing with my Logic Pro same time and testing the tricks and most importantly, learning a lot. Thank you for sharing this class in youtube!

This is a fantastic Logic Pro X Masterclass! SO GOOD!! Thanks a lot!

Super quality, mind blowing performance of all the actors here. A big „thank you“. 👍🏻👏🏻👍🏻👏🏻👍🏻

What a superb video with some of the best explanations of production as well as Logic I've seen. Thank you!

Brilliant, Thankyou so much for sharing your hard earned expertise with the rest of us, and so professionally delivered.
