26 Chapter 1 Basic Control Surface Setup
 Channel Strip Parameter: Choose which function is controlled by the channel strip
encoders on the device. The choices are:
 Volume: Encoders adjust channel volume.
 Pan: Encoders adjust channel panorama position.
 Format: Encoders adjust/select channel format.
 Input: Encoders adjust/select channel input source.
 Output: Encoders adjust/select channel output (main outs/auxes).
 Automation: Encoders adjust/select channel automation mode.
 Group: Encoders adjust group membership of the track. Editing the parameter
allows you to set either no group or a single group. Enabling membership of
multiple groups is not possible (this can only be done directly in the Logic Express
Mixer).
 Displayed Par.: Encoders adjust the automation parameter selected in the Arrange
window. This is especially useful if you set the control surface to Arrange View
mode, and your Arrange window shows multiple sub-tracks with various
parameters.
 EQ Band: Sets the current EQ band, so that you can edit a particular Channel EQ
parameter for all tracks in the EQ Multi Channel view.
 EQ Parameter pop-up menu: Choose which parameter of the selected EQ band is
controlled by the encoders in EQ Multi Channel view. The choices are:
 Frequency: Encoders adjust the frequency of the selected band.
 Gain: Encoders adjust the gain of the selected band. For the Low Cut (band 1) and
High Cut (band 8) bands of the Channel EQ, this parameter controls the slope.
 Q: Encoders adjust the Q factor of the selected band.
 On/Off: Encoders bypass the selected EQ band.
 EQ Parameter Page: Sets the EQ parameter displayed in EQ Channel Strip view.
The Channel EQ features 8 bands per audio channel, with each band offering four
parameters. All of these parameters can be accessed with your control surface.
If your control surface does not display all EQ parameters at once, you can view them
by stepping through the parameter “pages” in sequence. As an example, if your
control surface has eight channel strips, you can directly control parameters 1 to 8
with knobs or sliders 1 to 8 when you switch to EQ Channel Strip Edit view. You then
need to switch by a page to access parameters 9 to 16.
