Note: If this number is identical to the number of one of the built-in Logic Express
icons, the icon found in the user folder is given priority.
You also have the option of directly replacing the built-in Logic Express icons, which
are found in the /Contents/Resources/Images folder in the Logic Express package.
To open the Logic Express package:
m Right-click the Logic Express icon in the Finder, and choose the Show Package Contents
item from the pop-up menu.
Muting Tracks
You can use a track’s Mute button to stop it from playing. Use the Track Header
Configuration window to show or hide the track Mute buttons.
Mute states can be independent for tracks and channel strips, through use of the
respective M buttons in the track header, or corresponding channel strip (Arrange or
Mixer).
The behavior of these buttons depends on the Track Mute/Solo setting chosen in the
Logic Express > Preferences > Audio > General tab:
 Fast (Remote Channel Strips): Clicking a channel strip’s Mute button switches the state
of the associated track button, and vice-versa.
 CPU-saving (Slow Response): Choose to save processing resources, and to make the
track Mute buttons independent of the corresponding channel strips.
Note: The Mute states of multiple tracks that are routed to the same channel strip
are linked: Muting the channel strip mutes all associated tracks.
