Scrub a project in Logic Pro for Mac

1. In Logic Pro, zoom in or out as needed to view the section you want to scrub.

2. Click the Pause button  in the control bar.

3. Grab the playhead in the Tracks area or the ruler, and move it back and forth through the parts of the project you want to hear, at the speed you want to scrub the section (or use the Scrub Rewind and Scrub Forward key commands).

• In Logic Pro, select the audio regions, then scrub the project.

  Only the selected audio regions are heard. All unmuted MIDI regions are also heard.

• In Logic Pro, choose File > Settings > Audio, click Editing, then select the “Scrubbing with audio in Tracks area” checkbox.

• In Logic Pro, assign any MIDI controller number to the “Scrub by MIDI value (-2-)” function.

  With this assignment, data bytes over 64 scrub forward, and those under 64 scrub backward. For more information, see the Logic Pro Control Surfaces Support Guide.

You can also scrub via an external MIDI control (such as a control surface or keyboard controller) using the “Scrub by MIDI value (-2-)” function (available in the Controller Assignments window; see the Logic Pro Control Surfaces Support Guide). You can assign any MIDI controller number to this function. Data bytes over 64 scrub forward, and those under 64 scrub backward.
