I was wondering if there is any way to go to the start of a take, instead of the region, in Logic. Sometimes there are instances where a take starts, let’s say, at bar 6 and ends at bar 7, while the region’s length goes from bar 1 to bar 16, since the region length is always based on the comp or the longest take in that region.
Sometimes I don’t know exactly where a take starts or where its boundaries are, because finding the start manually can take a lot of time, especially if the region is, say, 100 bars long. One thing I tried was using transient navigation commands, but they don’t seem reliable. Occasionally they jump to the start of the take, but most of the time they don’t.
Are there any workarounds? Thank you!

Yes! smile
When you are in the take, and you want to move the playhead to the beginning of the take, hit return. The answer surprised me, too, but that's what SIRI told me.
No way that works
If this works I’m donating 20 cash to a charity of your choice.
Just saying, that's what SIRI told me!
Hitting return makes sense, too. Normally, return takes us to the beginning of the project, but because we are inside a take inside a take folder when we hit return, return takes us to the beginning of the take. Incidentally, when I asked Chapt GPT via SIRI for the keyboard command to take us to the beginning of a take inside the take folder, I specified I was using MacOS Sequoia and Logic Pro 11.
Joy!

Unfortunately no it does not work
Not that I really thought it would, but I of course tried it on Logic Pro 12, and it jumped to the start of the project as opposed to take. This also happens if the take folder is expended with option + f and VO cursor is on that take that's currently being played. So the return key doesn't do the job in any case. I just don’t understand people copying ChatGPT and/or Siri answers here, as I could’ve just asked ChatGPT myself instead of waiting for a reply on AppleVis. Trust me, I do a ton of research and, of course, ask ChatGPT before asking anything on the internet. ChatGPT is more often than not hallucinating.
