Glossary 503
bounce To process recorded or streamed MIDI and/or Audio Regions with any applied
effects, such as delay or compression, combining them into one audio file. In Logic, you
can choose between Realtime and Offline bouncing. Offline bouncing is faster, but
doesn’t allow you to apply live automation or record real time audio input.
Bounce button You can bounce the output of any Output Object to an audio file by
clicking the Object’s Bounce button. See also bounce.
bus The term bus is used to describe a send/return routing scheme for audio channels.
In Logic, effects can be sent to/from Bus Objects for processing or submixing tasks.
Bus Object Audio Object in the Environment’s Audio layer. Usually used to route the
signal of an individual send bus to Output Objects. See also bus.
bypass To deactivate a plug-in. Bypassed plug-ins do not drain system resources. In
Logic you can bypass a plug-in by either clicking its Bypass button in the plug-In
window or by Option-clicking on the appropriate plug-in slot.
cable In Logic the term cable is used to describe the virtual cables that represents the
MIDI connection between two Environment Objects.
CD Audio Short for Compact Disc—Audio; current standard for stereo music

channel strip A channel strip is a virtual representation of a channel strip on a mixing
console. Each channel strip contains a number of similar controls, such as a Mute
button, Volume fader, Pan/Balance knob, Output selector and Bus and/or Insert slots.

Clipboard The Clipboard is an invisible area of memory, into which you cut or copy

different positions. Logic’s Clipboard spans all songs, allowing it to be used to exchange
objects between songs.

volume and panning. The type of command is encoded in the first data byte, the value
in the second data byte.
