One of the biggest game changers in my production journey was when I started working from a starting template in Logic Pro; in this video I show you how you can create your own that will maximize your creative time and minimize the time you spend doing the uncreative, boring work.

Some key things that I do in my Logic Pro Template are setting up all my reverb and delay sends, organizing all my different instrument groups into color coded track stacks / bus groups, setting up my sample rate, offloading/disabling all my sample libraries and vst's, and much more!

The key point is to eliminate all the busy, tedious, repetitive work that doesn't change from session to session. Then you can simply load up your Logic Pro X Template and get right to work making music; you no longer have to spend and waste time setting up your bus groups, track stacks, route your reverbs and delays, etc!
