What’s new in Logic Pro for iPad 2.1

Quantec Room Simulator

The Quantec Room Simulator plug-in provides advanced digital reverb effects with a high degree of customization. It uses a unique algorithmic reverb technology to replicate how sound waves behave in different acoustic environments, and it includes both the classic QRS and the later YardStick models.

The Quantec technology has been used in studios around the world for countless pop music recordings, radio plays, classical music broadcasts, and movie soundtracks. See Quantec Room Simulator.

Reorder channel strips in the Mixer

You can reorder channel strips in the Mixer by dragging them. You can select multiple channel strips, including nonadjacent ones, and reorder them together. When you reorder channel strips assigned to tracks, the corresponding tracks are reordered in the Tracks area. See Reorder channel strips in the Mixer.

Reorder plug-ins in the Plug-ins area

You can reorder plug-in tiles directly in the Plug-ins area by dragging them, in addition to using Edit mode to quickly reorder or delete multiple tiles. See Reorder plug-ins in the Plug-ins area.

Add your own sample folders to the Browser

You can access your own collections of samples in the Browser and quickly add samples to the Tracks area or to a plug-in such as Sampler or Quick Sampler. You can nest folder locations to create a folder hierarchy. See Add your own loops and samples to Logic Pro.
