• EQ button: Press the EQ button to edit the EQ parameters of the selected channel strip.
If a Channel or Linear Phase EQ is inserted in the selected channel strip, pressing the
EQ button opens the EQ plug-in window. If no Channel or Linear Phase EQ exists on the
selected channel strip, a Channel EQ is inserted automatically. The Arrow Up and Arrow
Down buttons switch to the next or previous parameter page.
Each Assignment button has two modes—Mixer view and Channel view—that determine
whether the rotary encoders (and in some cases, the Select buttons) edit separate
channels or the same channel. For more information, see M-Audio iControl Mixer and
Channel view in Logic Pro.

The iControl has channel strip controls for eight channel strips, which default to channel
strips 1 to 8. To access further channel strips, press the Arrow Up button. This allows you
to control channel strips 9 through 16. Press the Arrow Up button again to control channel
strips 17 to 24, or press the Arrow Down button to control channel strips 1 to 8.
When using the Arrow buttons to switch between groups of channel strips, the channel
strips follow groupings of eight (starting from channel strip 1) unless the last group of
channel strips does not make a complete group of eight. For example, if a project has 19
channel strips, and the iControl is controlling channel strips 1 to 8:
• Press the Arrow Up button to shift to channel strips 9 to 16.
• Press the Arrow Up button again to shift to channel strips 12 to 19.
• Press the Arrow Down button to shift back to channel strips 9 to 16, not 4 to 11.
Hold down the Option button while pressing the Arrow Up button to jump to the first eight
channel strips in the project. Press the Option and Arrow Down buttons to jump to the last
eight channel strips in the project. For example, if a project has 64 channel strips, pressing
Option–Arrow Up jumps to channel strips 57 to 64, and pressing Option–Arrow Down
jumps to channel strips 1 to 8.
Note: If the Generator, EQ, Effect 1, or Effect 2 button is lit, the functions of the Arrow
Up and Arrow Down buttons are as described in M-Audio iControl Assignment buttons in
Logic Pro.
