Logic Pro Certification CRAS Practice Test

In Logic Pro, the ability to zoom in or out horizontally can significantly enhance your workflow by allowing you to focus on specific areas of your project. The correct answer is achieved by using the Command key in combination with the Right Arrow or Left Arrow keys.

When you press Command along with the Right Arrow, it zooms in horizontally, providing a closer view of your audio or MIDI regions, which is particularly useful when editing fine details. Conversely, using Command with the Left Arrow will zoom out, allowing you to see a broader section of your project. This method is highly efficient as it can be done quickly with a keyboard shortcut, minimizing disruption to the workflow.

While using the scroll wheel could provide a way to navigate horizontally, it's primarily designed for scrolling through a large project rather than specifically zooming in and out. The Option + Mouse Scroll allows for vertical zooming or adjusting track height rather than horizontal zooming. Z + Click is typically used in Logic Pro to quickly fit the entire project to your screen or to zoom in on a selected area, but it does not specifically designate horizontal zooming as the primary function.
