How I use it
Logic is where everything gets recorded, arranged and mixed. I’ve used it since Logic Pro 7, and every release since Imagine! was recorded in it: all my albums and singles except my first album, Nathan Sheldon (1998). On A Very Mellow Christmas, Logic’s own Alchemy synth and sampled instruments played most of the parts. The screenshot is my project for Night Drive.
