Normalizing Across Apple Loops

Aug 22nd, 2010, 01:49

I have crafted a sequence of bass apple loops to fit my song. But it seems that each loop has its own peak levels. I realize that I could go and adjust the gain of every loop, but isn't there an easy way to normalize across the entire loop set. The "normalize" function in the sample editor does not seem to be available. P.S. I would rather not glue them all together since I might like to change a loop later.

Hi Logic Pro 9, It's not possible to apply some destructive commands to apple loops... The best thing is to get the levels correct and then convert them into Apple Loops. Another way is to import the Apple Loops into your project and copy/convert the files into regular audio files and apply destructive gain increase... Alternatively... Add them all to your project (same track) and apply a compressor/limiter to taste on that channel, then bounce each region in place and then add to the Apple Loops library. Hope that helps Rounik

Painful, but I did it that way. Thanks. Seems like this would be a common issue. Seems like the computer could analyze the various loops and automatically put a per region gain on them so that I did not have to do that by hand.
