Chapter 2 Basic control surface setup 13

Connect control surfaces

Logic Pro supports many control surfaces that connect to your computer using FireWire, USB,

and other connection protocols. Be sure to check the type of connection that your device

features and that it is supported by your computer. Before connecting the device, read the

installation instructions included with it, and install the latest version of any appropriate rmware

or driver software, if needed. For more information, refer to the documentation that came with

the device.

Note: Some control surfaces allow you to connect footswitches or pedals as additional

controllers. If your control surface features suitable connectors, you can connect optional

footswitches to remotely control playback and other functions. This frees your hands for

other controls and can also be helpful when using guitars or other instruments that require

two-handed playing.

Connect a FireWire or USB control surface

1 Connect your FireWire or USB control surface directly to your computer.

FireWire and USB devices transmit and receive data through a single cable, if the device supports

bidirectional communication. The diagram illustrates a typical setup using a FireWire or USB

cable:

Computer

Important: It is recommended that you connect FireWire and USB devices directly to your

computer, rather than through a hub. Daisy-chaining devices can result in errors and other

problems, due to the amount of data transmitted in real time.

2 Once connected, press the power switch on your control surface.

When powered, the displays (such as an LCD, if your device has one) or LEDs are lit. Some LCDs

display a welcome message, which includes the rmware version number. On most control

surfaces with motorized faders, each fader slides to its top position, then back to its bottom

or center position. This self-diagnostic initialization procedure indicates that your units are

functioning correctly.

Note: Generally, you can turn on your computer either before or after you turn on the control

surface. Some devices, however, may require the computer to be turned on before or after the

device has initialized. Check the device documentation, and manufacturer website.
