Software Monitoring

Logic Pro Preferences > Audio > Devices > Core Audio

Software Monitoring lets you listen to record-enabled channel strips, including the insert effects. The insert effects aren't recorded, they are only monitored.

Software monitoring is useful when your hardware doesn't have monitoring capabilities or when you want to listen to a channel with effects, like during a vocal session where the vocalist wants to hear some reverb but you don't necessarily want to commit to recording the effect on the track.

The potential downside to Software Monitoring can be increased latency due to effects processing.

You can turn on Software Monitoring from the Logic Pro Audio Preferences.

  • Go to Logic Pro > Preferences > Audio > Devices > Core Audio


Auto Input Monitoring

If you want to listen to the input only during recording, not during playback, turn Auto Input Monitoring on. If Auto Input Monitoring is turned off, you will only hear the input and not the recorded playback.

Having Auto Input Monitoring on is useful when Punch Recording.

To turn Auto Input Monitoring on or off:

  • Go to Options > Audio > Auto Input Monitoring
  • Control click the Record button on the Transport bar and choose Auto Input Monitoring

  • Auto Input Monitoring Audio Options

  • Transport Bar Record Auto Input Monitoring


Input Monitoring Buttons

Input Monitoring Button

If you want to listen to the input of tracks that are not record-enabled, press the track's Input Monitoring Button.
