2 Overview of the
Logic Express Interface
The Logic Express interface features several areas, each
specialized for particular tasks. The main workspace is the
Arrange window, which can incorporate all areas and editors.
This chapter introduces you to the Arrange window. You’ll learn how it interacts with
other Logic Express windows and editors. Detailed information about these editors and
their functions can be found in cross referenced chapters.
You are encouraged to open Logic Express to view these windows and familiarize
yourself with them. Click and explore the various parts of the Logic Express interface as
they are discussed. This will give you a feel for where things are, a brief overview of
what they do, and how they work with each other.
To open Logic Express:
m In the Finder or Dock, double-click the Logic Express icon in the Applications folder.
When you open Logic Express for the first time, the Templates dialog is displayed,
allowing you to select a template for the project type you want to create (for more
information on the New dialog, see “Creating Projects” on page 139). The layout of the
Logic Express interface depends on the chosen template.
