The rows consist of “steps” - representing each beat in our pattern - that you click to turn on and off to create a beat/loop/pattern. In the most basic sense, Step Sequencer is a series of looping rows of notes in a grid where we can create musical patterns with software instruments.

It offers up another way for producers to get creative with their software instrument library, subsequently adding a ton of value to the LPX experience for new users trying decide which DAW to align with, all while making it an even more versatile musical recording tool overall. While there were some options in Logic for step-like sequencing previously, the team has created a brand new editor from the ground up with a host of powerful creative tools on-board, loads of preset patterns you can manipulate, and a tight new interface to control it all from. Its introduction continues the trend of bringing powerful new workflows to Logic Pro X inspired by popular vintage products and other DAWs, but with that particular Apple touch of course. Not unlike something found in vintage drum machines and hardware sequencers, we can now program our software instruments in the new Logic Pro X 10.5 editor and creative tool known as Step Sequencer. With the Logic Pro Step Sequencer comes a new way to interact with MIDI and automation data.
