Step FX in Logic Pro for iPad
Step FX is a powerful multi-effect unit that provides deep modulation control, courtesy of three independent step modulators. It can be used with any type of signal and is capable of subtle or heavy rhythmic enhancements of musical parts, dance floor gating effects, and warped manipulations that can turn your audio and instrument tracks into something completely new.
The three independent step modulators—each with an envelope—provide up to 128 steps that can be used to control effects parameters, gate, and pan. Multiple step modulators can be used to control the same parameter, allowing for interesting polyrhythms. Control is further enhanced with the assignable XY pad that enables real time manipulation of up to four parameters. See the sections on Step FX modulator toolbar, playback controls, and display controls.
Effects include a multimode filter, a modulation FX unit, delay, reverb, and distortion units. All effects parameters can be modulated.
Step FX processors work in series—where the output of one effect is fed into the next in an effects chain. The routing order lets you choose whether a delayed signal should be filtered or the filtered sound should be delayed—as an example.
Horizontally drag the name of the effect in the Effects order strip to determine the order of the effects chain.
To add Step FX to your project, choose Multi Effects > Step FX in a channel strip Audio Effect plug-in menu or the Plug-ins area. See Intro to plug-ins. Also see Add, replace, reorder, and remove plug-ins in the Plug-ins area and Work with plug-ins in the Mixer.
