Logic X, Loop is turning on automatically when bouncing, why

I'm not at home with my computer and won't be until this evening, but can't you disable the loop button in preferences - take it off the bar, etc..

Do you have the loop parameter checked on your MIDI tracks? If so, uncheck the box. That should do it.

Thanks 79sg. I'm not sure I know where the "loop parameter" on my midi tracks is.

I use midi rarely, with the exception of Superior Drummer and percussion. I went to the "customize tool bar", and clicked "cycle" off, but when I went to bounce, the loop still turns on.

Thanks 79g. I checked around one track, and I did see Loop checked on some midi percussion tracks I'd looped. I bounced in palace as an audio file, checked that every track didn't have Loop clicked on, went to bounce, and the damn loop function turned on again.

Ugh..


* I just opened a completely different track, one that's finished, one I never have had an issue with. I tried to bounce as a test, and the Loop turned itself on again. So, this must be something global in my Logic settings, because it's happening on all my tracks when I bounce.

aarrgghh..

Martin it sounds like you have automated the loop function ?

Are you using any automation in this session ?

In Logic you can turn automation on and off globally, also for a track and or open up the track automation and automate everything that is loaded on the track.

Have you turned automation globally off for the whole session just to check ?

Haven't tried turning all automation off, will try that next.

well check your global settings then under preferences and or download and reinstall a fresh copy of logic, maybe you have corrupted something accidentally ? ?

Outside now. I only realized a minute ago that my problem isn't technically a Loop issue, it's a Cycling issue. Every song I have is automatically Cycling when I go to bounce. Maybe that will help me figure this out.

Excerpt From "11 Essential Logic Pro X Shortcuts for Producers"

"#5 - Easily Cycle/Loop a Specific Area (Command-U)

So you’re working on an area of your track and you need to loop a specific bar range for playback. You can use the mouse to swipe up and across the top ruler, but if there’s plenty of regions in the workspace, it can be difficult to “eye” the area you’re attempting to loop. First select the regions you intend to loop around, then use Command-U. This command comes in handy very often while producing, editing, or recording. Using Command-U after selecting regions will set the cycle area to the exact width of the selected regions. Keep in mind Cycle Mode must be enabled for this (C).

#9 - Repeat Entire Sections (Control-Command - R)

Control-Command-R is great for adding length to your songs. You can easily repeat a section, then remove regions to start sequencing/arranging. Create builds by working backward from a drop/peak section. Create a cycle/loop around the area you want to repeat first, then use this great command."

All I got for now hope this helps... I would look at your bounce settings and advanced settings menu and click on each category to manually enable/ disable what you do/ don't need...

Did you make sure you have "Use 2nd Pass" deselected in the Bounce dialog window?

That's funny because I literally searched for the logic Pro X bounce option menu or bounce dialogue menu and could not pull up images or just a link to that info, everything was convoluted! I knew that's where the answer lived in even though I don't use logic Pro X I'm glad everything got fixed for you man have a great day recording!
