Thank you so much for listening and for this great comment! I agree, those other tracks are Halloween tracks, but this is different - my goal was for more of a visceral experience while listening. Odd time signatures are something that I don’t explore all that often and this seemed like a good time to do it! Great job identifying most of them! 

Given that you also used different time signatures in your track, I’m curious if you run into the same issue as me? In Logic, if I set a different time signature but then want to add more space at the beginning of the song, for example, I can’t just select all the tracks and move them - instead you have to do that and then manually change the time signature hoping that it is able to line up well with the track marker. I’m assuming that there must be an easier way to move time signatures around, but honestly it’s been a deterrent for me exploring more creative time signatures in my projects.

Regarding my track count, thankfully no I didn’t have 142 tracks! For some reason when I load an electronic drum kit, it loads each separate instrument within the track stack and adds 15-20 extra tracks per instance. So still a fair amount of tracks but not that bad. The color coding is fun, but so far I’ve been forgetting about it until after the fact and then I change it to make it look pretty. There are probably several different things about Logic that I don’t know about or don’t do that would help streamline my workflow. If you ever find out any more cool tricks, please share!

Hey :)

I also struggle so now and then with adding new time signatures in Logic. I am currently working on diving into it some more and figuring out some tips and tricks - if I have some, I'll let you know through Discord!

Ah, you're right. I also get a lot of tracks when I use an electronic drum kit. I never noticed that until a few days ago. And I understand that color coding isn't in your system yet. That's why I let Logic automatically set the colors of all tracks to be different. It helps me not only distinguish between tracks, but I can also select multiple tracks and open them in the piano roll editor, and the notes of the different tracks will be colored by the track color! (At least, if you have set the colors to show "region colors" instead of the default "velocity colors"!)

Of course, I am new to Logic, and that means that I am very eager to look into every aspect of it. I write everything down too. So I might send you some useful tips soon, when I have something concrete to share :)
