A/B Referencing in Logic?
Logic users, can anyone suggest a tutorial for A/B comparing my track to a professionally mixed track in Logic? I have seen some tutorials, but they didn't quite match my version of Logic- they seemed to be using earlier versions. If anyone just has a simple set of instructions they can share, that would be cool, too! šŸ‘šŸ¾ Thanks in advance for any input!

The work that did not pay upfront is what paid me later
Let me share something I wish more creators understood earlier in this "visual media" industry. The moment you decide you are going to take this career seriously, whether that is composing, producing, or creating in any lane, you are already stepping into a long game. There is no version of this where it happens fast. What most people see is the main road. The obvious path. The one tied to upfront money, quick wins, and immediate results. That path is real. You should be on it. But there is another road running alongside it. Less obvious. Slower at first. No big upfront payoff. Just work that builds over time. Same destination. Same goal. A different way of getting there. Early on, I made the decision to take both. I stayed on the main (one) road. But I also took opportunities that did not always pay upfront. I focused on building something, not just earning something. I said yes to work that gave me ownership, gained experience, and volume in the form of a writer’s share. I treated every piece like it mattered, even when it felt small. Why? ...... Because that work does not disappear. It compounds. It stacks. One piece turns into ten.Ten turns into a hundred. A hundred turns into something that starts working for you long after the work is done. For me, that window was 2012 to 2015. During that time, I was still on my main path, building my career as a composer. But alongside that, I was contributing to catalogs every chance I got. Some of it went directly into catalogs.Most of it went through publishers who had direct relationships with working music supervisors. So the pipeline was simple. From my DAW to the publisher to the music supervisor to the editor that placed it directly into picture That was it. No middle confusion. No waiting around. Just consistent output going straight into real opportunities to be placed. That is when everything shifts. You stop chasing every dollar. You start collecting from the work you already did. That is how I built.

Sync Spotlight Conference

WELCOME TO THE BRIEF ROOM
We’re introducing something new inside PTN. A space where the brief gets set, and you bring the work. This is where your ability to read direction, respond to it, and deliver with intent gets tested and sharpened. We listen live, analyze in real time, and react through one lens: Does it serve the brief, while still making it yours? We set the brief, you bring the work. We’ll be bringing in hosts and guests who live in this space to listen, give feedback, and guide. Every brief is different. Different needs, different directions, different challenges. We’ll keep it moving so you’re not stuck in one lane. You can submit your work and step into it. You never know where this leads! Share it. Bring your people. Let’s build the room. Stay VERY Tuned...The first Brief Room session is coming.
