numeric field of the New Tracks dialog to create four new software instrument tracks
(“Inst 1,” “Inst 2,” and so on).
Important: Now would be a great time to save your project. Presuming you followed
the steps when you first launched Logic, and have already “saved as,” you can choose
File > Save (or use the default Save key command: Command-S).
You can also follow the steps above to create External MIDI tracks, which are used for
the recording and playback of external MIDI synthesizers. Use of external MIDI tracks
(and hardware) is discussed in the Logic user manual.
You should be looking at something like this:
The last of the new tracks (Inst 4) is highlighted in the track list, and the Library window
is shown to the right of the Arrange window.
