By default Logic allows you to solo multiple tracks simultaneously.  This is the same as enabling Solo Latch in Pro Tools.  However, what if you want the solo on another track to be disabled when soloing another track?  There is not a setting to completely disable this functionality, but there is a work around.

Have you ever noticed the button in your transport bar?  Apple simply calls it Solo, but it is better described as a “Selected Region Solo Mode”.  When enabled only selected regions will be played.  This mode works with any combination of selected regions in the arrange window.  You may be wondering how selecting regions can be any quicker than clicking the solo button on and off?  Well, here’s how…

When you click a track header in the arrange window all the regions for that track are selected and all other regions are deselected.  Therefore, to solo another track all you need to do is click the track header.  Much quicker than enabling and disabling the solo button when trying to find the track that was recorded with the noisy cable!
