Record and edit takes in cells in Logic Pro for Mac When you set the Recording parameter to Takes, each new recording in a cell creates a new take. If a cell contains takes, the number of takes is displayed in the lower-left corner of the cell, and the currently active take is displayed in the upper left. You can choose and preview each take individually, even while the cell is playing. You can also rename, delete, flatten, move, and copy takes.
You can move take folders from the Tracks area to cells, and move take folders from cells to the Tracks area. If you want to edit comps in a cell, you must drag the cell to the Tracks area, edit the comps there, then drag the resulting region back to the Live Loops grid when you are finished.
