This week continued to be A Lot (on top of the past few months)...so I thought it was a good opportunity to check out the Session Players in Logic 11. Sort of an 80s infused Pink Floyd sort of thing.
All told, good tools, and an excellent way to jumpstart an idea. Loved being able to set up a rhythm section and just solo over it to work out melodic ideas. You can freely switch around what patch is used on a track, which is a great way to try out new textures.
The chord track is a good reference even beyond using it to guide the session players - I like having it there for my own playing reference. The new interface is something to get used to, but there seems to be more depth in it than there was before. It looks like you can actually coach the drummer for specific rhythms to play, which saves the step of having to record those yourself in another track.
