Controller Assigments: Working in Expert View
You can use Expert view to make advanced controller assignments. These include
Logic Express parameters other than channel strip and plug-in parameters. For example,
you can assign controllers to global, automation, and control surface group parameters
in Expert view. You can also extensively edit controller assignments in Expert view, and
define zones and modes, which let you switch between groups of controllers.
The Learn process opens the Controller Assignments window in Easy view, which shows
the basic parameters for the current assignment. To make assignments other than channel
strip or plug-in assignments (or to edit other assignment parameters), you need to switch
to Expert view.
Tip: You can only switch back to Easy view if a track or plug-in parameter is selected.

In Expert view, the Controller Assignments window contains the following fields, menus,
and buttons that you use to edit assignment parameters and define zones and modes.
• Zone list: Displays the available zones for the device. The first entry “(No Zone)” is for
zoneless assignments—assignments that are always active, regardless of the active
zone. Select a zone in the list to see its modes (in the Mode list), and its current
assignments (in the Control/Parameter list). You can also double-click a zone to rename
it. See Getting to Know Zones and Modes.
