Audio tracks are normally played back at their original speed. If you would rather hear
them at double speed, choose Logic Express > Preferences > Audio > Drivers, and set
Maximum Scrub Speed to Double in the pop-up menu.
Note: You can also use the SCRUB button for Pause functionality.
• SHUTTLE mode: The Jog/Scrub Wheel shuttles the playhead—turning it increases or
decreases the speed at which the playhead moves. The SCRUB button LED flashes when
in Shuttle mode.
Mackie Control: Programmable User Modes
The Mackie Control provides six programmable user modes, which you can use for your
own assignments. You can activate each of these modes by holding down the SHIFT
button along with one of the Assignment buttons, as follows:
• TRACK + SHIFT = User mode 1.
• PAN/SURROUND + SHIFT = User mode 2.
• EQ + SHIFT = User mode 3.
• SEND + SHIFT = User mode 4.
• PLUG-IN + SHIFT = User mode 5.
• INSTRUMENT + SHIFT = User mode 6.
The Assignment displays shows the users modes as u1, u2, and so on.
To create an assignment in one of the user modes
1 Activate the user mode you want to use by holding down the SHIFT button and pressing
one of the Assignment buttons, as listed above.
2 In Logic Express, use the Learn process to create one or more assignments, as described
in Assigning Controllers to Logic Express Parameters.
Mackie Control: Connecting Foot Switches
You can connect a momentary foot pedal—with either positive or negative polarity—to
the foot switch sockets. By default, foot switches control the following functions:
• USER SWITCH A is assigned to Start/Stop.
• USER SWITCH B is assigned to Record. (Note that a track must be selected and armed
for recording to take place.)
• EXTERNAL CONTROL is assigned to the MASTER fader level. Only use an expression
pedal with this socket.
The polarity of the foot switches is determined by the Mackie Control when powered up.
You should first connect the foot switches, then turn on the Mackie Control.
