How to bounce track stacks as stems in Logic Pro X
Group up your instruments and get them ready for new mixing or mastering project
Keeping an organised workflow is an essential part of music production, despite being a seldom mentioned aspect of the art. Not only is it useful for you, the producer, but will also benefit the mixing or mastering engineer further down the line – which could also be you, so why not help yourself out? Bouncing your project out to stems is a great way to hand over a tidy session to the next link in the chain.
In this Logic Pro Tips video, MusicTech expert Jono Buchanan shows you how you can create track stacks in Logic Pro X and what kind of stacks you might want to make. He then shows you how to export your track stacks as stems and re-import them via the Project Browser window.
