General MIDI settings in Logic Pro
General MIDI settings are available only when Show Advanced Tools is selected in
Advanced preferences. The General pane of the MIDI project settings contains the
following settings:
Control Change 7/10 controls Volume/Pan of Channel Strip Objects checkbox: When
selected, MIDI Control Change message #7 controls channel strip volume and MIDI
CC#10 controls channel strip pan position. Enabling this setting might interfere with
MIDI plug-ins and Smart Control mappings.
Instrument Without MIDI Thru Function pop-up menu: The instrument selected here
does not pass events through the computer when the instrument is assigned to the
selected track. Normally, you would set the No Output instrument here (chosen by
default).
If your master keyboard doesn’t have a Local Off setting, you can use this feature to
avoid unwanted note doubling when recording:
With multi-timbral sound sources, assign the instrument (usually channel 1) that
plays the part that is heard when playing with the computer turned off.
With mono timbral sound sources, assign the instrument that represents the sound-
generating part of your master keyboard.
In either case, you should turn down the volume control of your master keyboard
whenever you’re recording tracks for any other instrument.
It’s possible to disable MIDI Thru for any MIDI track in the Main window, by simply
disabling the Record Enable button beside the track name.
When Additional MIDI Options is selected in Advanced preferences, the following are
available:
Send After Loading Project:“Used instrument MIDI settings” checkbox: Sends the
active instrument MIDI settings automatically after loading a project.
Send After Loading Project:“All fader values” checkbox: Sends all Environment fader
values automatically, once a project is loaded.
