1031Logic Pro User Guide
• Jog resolution depends on horizontal zoom checkbox: Turn on to link the precision of
scrubbing (using the Jog/Shuttle Wheel of your control surface) with the horizontal
zoom level of Logic Pro. Your control surface must feature a Jog/Shuttle Wheel (or
similar control) for this to have an effect. To retain a consistent resolution, regardless of
Logic Pro window zoom levels, deselect this checkbox.
• Pickup Mode checkbox: Turn on to use your control surface in Pickup mode (if this
mode is available).
Some control surfaces, typically those without motorized faders or knobs, do not
show parameter changes—caused by playing back existing automation data—on their
interface. Such control surfaces usually offer a Pickup mode. In Pickup mode, the
controller must reach (“pick up”) the current value before the value starts to change.
This feature prevents sudden jumps of parameter values caused by playing back
automation. Your device may provide a display (usually a pair of arrow LEDs) that
indicates the direction or distance you need to move the controller, in order to match
the settings shown in Logic Pro (also known as NULL). Once you have matched the
onscreen values, you can create or edit automation data. When Pickup mode is turned
off, adjusting a fader modifies the parameter immediately (which can result in parameter
value jumps).
• Flash Mute and Solo buttons checkbox: Turn on to make the Mute and Solo buttons on
the control surface blink (flash) on and off when mute or solo modes are engaged.
• Multiple Controls per Parameter pop-up menu: Choose the maximum number of
encoders used for each parameter when editing plug-ins or audio instruments. The
choices are:
• 1: Parameters are always displayed using one encoder per parameter, with the least
space available for the parameter name and value in the LCD.
• 2: On each unit, encoders 1 and 2 are used for the first parameter, encoders 3 and 4
for the second, and so on.
• 4: On each unit, encoders 1 to 4 are used for the first parameter, encoders 5 to 8 for
the second, and so on.
• 8: On each unit, encoders 1 to 8 are used for the first parameter, encoders 9 to 16
for the second, and so on.
When multiple encoders are used per parameter, the encoders are divided into groups
(1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, for example). The first encoder of each group controls the parameter
shown in the display. The remaining encoders are inactive. Using more than one
encoder per parameter shows fewer parameters at any given time, but you gain space
on the LCD to cater for longer parameter names and values. The more control surfaces
you have within a control surface group, the more you benefit from this feature.
• Only when all parameters fit on one page checkbox: Turn on to use the defined number
of encoders only when there are sufficient encoders available to show all parameters
without changing pages.
For example, if you have a MackieControl and two MackieControlXTs (giving you a
total of 24 encoders), a plug-in with 13 parameters is shown with one encoder per
parameter. Eleven encoders remain unused. A plug-in with 11 parameters is shown with
two encoders per parameter. Two encoders remain unused (as do the inactive encoders
of the subdivisions mentioned above). When this parameter is turned off, multiple
encoders are used for each parameter, which may require scrolling. This is not the case
if only one encoder is used for each parameter.
