Merge software instrument recordings in Logic Pro for iPad

You can record additional performances on top of an existing performance, merging them into a single region in Logic Pro for iPad. You can use this process to add a supplementary recorded sound to a previously recorded performance, for example. You set the behavior when recording over existing MIDI regions in Recording settings. You can choose to create take folders or merge previously and newly recorded MIDI events when Cycle mode is on and off.

Merge a software instrument recording with Cycle mode on

In Logic Pro, tap the More button in the control bar, choose Settings > App Settings > Recording > Cycle On, and then tap Merge.
Tap the header of the software instrument track you want to record to.
Set the cycle area in the ruler.
Tap the Record button in the control bar to start recording.
Use the Play Surface or a MIDI controller to play some notes.
Tap the Stop button in the control bar to stop recording.

The end result is a single MIDI region that contains the merged performances from each cycle pass. However, you can also merge a MIDI recording when not in Cycle mode.
