Automate cells in Live Loops in Logic Pro for iPad
Automation can also be created in cells when you work in the Live Loops grid. Cells are containers that include one or more regions of any of the four region types (audio region, MIDI region, Step Sequencer pattern region, or Session Player region). Adding and editing automation in cells is technically region automation for the region contained in the cell.
Selecting a cell and opening the Editors area shows the Cell Editor, which can have four different interfaces depending on the region type. It can be an Audio Editor, a Piano Roll Editor, a Step Sequencer, or a Session Player Editor, each one with some cell-specific controls. The Cell Editor also has the Automation View button to view and edit region automation.
Note: A cell that contains region automation shows the automation symbol in the lower-right corner of the cell (visible when zoomed in).
