Navigating With Markers
You can navigate through your project with markers. This is useful when you want to
quickly jump to—and edit regions or events—at a specific project position, for
example.
To move the playhead to a marker, do one of the following:
m In the Marker track: Press Option and click the marker.
m In the Bar ruler: Press Command and click the marker.
m In the Marker List: Click on a marker with the Finger tool.
∏ Tip: If you press Option and click a marker in the Marker List with the Finger tool, the
locators are set to the beginning and end points of the selected marker.
m Use the Go to Marker Number 1 to 20 key commands (20 different commands).
The marker numbers in these commands refer to the (serial) order of all markers in the
project.
m Use the Go to Marker key command to open a window that allows you to type in any
marker number.
This will move the playhead to the beginning of the chosen marker.
To move to the next or previous marker:
m Use the Go to Previous Marker and Go to Next Marker key commands).
The locators are set to the beginning and end points of the selected marker.
To start playback at a marker start position, do one of the following:
m In the Bar Ruler: Command–double-click on a marker.
m In the Marker List: Click-hold on a marker with the Finger tool.
Logic Express continues playing until the mouse button is released.
To create a cycle from a marker, do one of the following:
m Drag a marker up into the top third of the Bar ruler.
This will set a cycle with the same position and length as the marker. If Logic Express is
stopped when performing this action, the playhead will be placed at the start point of
the cycle.
m Select the marker, then use one of the following key commands:
 Set Locators by Marker and Enable Cycle
 Set Locators by Previous Marker and Enable Cycle
