Working With Video
Logic Express allows QuickTime movie files to be
synchronously viewed, making film and TV scoring quick and
easy.
You can open a QuickTime movie in a separate Movie window, or can display the single
frames of a QuickTime movie in the global Video track. When a movie is opened in a
project, the upper part of the Inspector shows a closed Movie area—which can be
opened by clicking the disclosure triangle.
Movie playback follows the playhead position, and vice-versa, in the Inspector movie
area, and the Movie window.
Note: You will need a fast hard disk, and fast Macintosh, to ensure smooth movie
playback. If you want to record and edit your own QuickTime movie (using iMovie or
Final Cut Pro or Express) from a video recorder or digital camera, you may need
specialized hardware.
Important: You can not record or edit video in Logic Express. You can, however, replace
the soundtrack of a movie file—with music, foley, and dialog arranged in Logic Express.
