of the V-Pot, when turned.

when turned.
• The display shows the punch in and punch out locators above V-Pots 5 and 7.
• Pressing V-Select 5 picks up (uses) the current playhead position for the punch in
locator.

Mackie C4 function buttons in Logic Pro
This section outlines the FUNCTION buttons at the lower left of the C4 control surface.
• SPLIT button: Splits the C4 rows as follows: 4/0, 1/3, 2/2, and 3/1. This is known as a
Split Edit, and allows you to simultaneously edit two separate sections of a plug-in, or
even two different plug-ins.
Split Edit is also possible across multiple C4 units. For example, with two C4 devices,
pressing the SPLIT button offers the following split modes:
• 1/7 (Split Upper is the top row of the first C4 unit; Split Lower is the bottom three
rows of the first unit and all rows of the second C4 unit. LED 1/3 is lit.)
• 2/6 (Split Upper is the top two rows of the first C4 unit; Split Lower is the bottom two
rows of the first unit and all rows of second C4 unit. LED 2/1 is on.)
• 3/5 (LED 3/1 is on.)
• 4/4 (All three LEDs are on.)
• 5/3 (All three LEDs are on.)
• 6/2 (All three LEDs are on.)
• 7/1 (All three LEDs are on.)
• LOCK button: Turns Track Lock on or off. When LOCK is enabled, selection of a different
track in the Tracks window does not switch the current track/channel selection on the C4.
• SPOT ERASE button: Unassigned.
