Fast Forward Button

Quickly press the Fast Forward button (denoted by two right arrows) to move the playhead

forward by one bar. Hold down the Fast Forward button to continuously move the

playhead forward in one-bar increments.

You can also press the Fast Forward and Cycle buttons simultaneously to activate Cycle

mode, and set the right cycle border (right locator) to the current playhead position.

Cycle Button

Press the Cycle button (denoted by two circular arrows) to activate Cycle mode. If Cycle

mode is active, pressing the Cycle button deactivates it.

You can activate Cycle mode—and set the left and right cycle locators, respectively—by

using the Rewind or Fast Forward and Cycle buttons together. See M-Audio iControl:

Using Locators and Cycle Mode.

M-Audio iControl: Using Locators and Cycle Mode

The left and right locators are used to mark a section of your project. These are often

used in conjunction with cycle facilities, which repeatedly play back the section of your

project between the locators.

To set the left and right locators, and activate Cycle mode

1 Use the Jog Wheel to move the playhead to the desired left locator position, then press

both the Cycle and Rewind buttons.

2 Do one of the following:

• Navigate to the position where you want to set the right locator with the Jog Wheel,

then press the Cycle and Fast Forward buttons simultaneously.

• Hold down the Cycle button, navigate to the position where you want to set the right

locator using the Jog Wheel, then release the Cycle button.

• Rotating the Jog Wheel counterclockwise (to the left) while holding down Cycle defines

a skip-cycle range.

M-Audio iControl: Master Fader

Moving the Master fader on the iControl sets the level of the Master fader in the

Logic Express Mixer window. The Master fader changes the level of all output channels,

but does not affect the relative levels of channels that precede the Master fader in the

signal path. Move the fader left to decrease the master level, or to the right to increase

the master level.
