Mackie Control foot switches in Logic Pro
You can connect a momentary foot pedal—with either positive or negative polarity—to the
foot switch sockets. By default, foot switches control the outlined 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. Use only 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.
