Why Does Score Editor in Logic Pro X Refuse to Edit 1/32nd Notes?

I have been dealing with this issue for years! Whenever I try to create 1/32nd notes in Logic Pro X's score editor, it converts them to doubled 1/16 notes. I can drag and drop 32nd notes onto the score, and it will automatically convert them to 16th notes. Even if I go to the Piano Roll and manually shrink the notes to half the size, when I return to the score, they are either doubled 1/8th notes or triplets. Can anyone explain how to solve this?


I tried adjusting the quantize to 1/32nd and 1/64th but it doesn't seem to change anything. The only solution I have found so far that works is to open a new score, create the same notes but with 1/16 set to 1/8th notes and 1/32nd to 1/16 notes, setting the tempo to double the speed of my original composition, bouncing it as an audio file and adding it to the original score. This is very time-consuming and difficult.


Please provide suggestions if you have them!

Wow! yoyoBen... you are a saint! You have NO IDEA how long I've been trying to figure that out! I've been using Logic for over 10 years and I have never once thought to look at that.


For anyone else who is having this issue, the answer is correct. Simply click on the down arrow on the right edge of the project bar and choose "Custom" it will show all fields. You can then see the /32 option and adjust accordingly.
