Use Logic Pro ES2 in Surround mode
In surround ES2 instances, two additional parameters are shown in the slide out Extended
Parameters section at the bottom of the plug-in window:Surround Range and Surround
Diversity.
ES2 Surround parameters
Surround Range: Determine the range of the surround angle (0 to 360degrees).
Put another way, this sets the breadth of the surround field. You can modulate the
movement of sounds within the surround range by using the Pan target in the router.
Surround Diversity: Determine how the output signal is distributed across your surround
speakers. If you choose a value of 0, only the speakers that are closest to the original
signal position carry the signal. A diversity value of 1 distributes an identical amount of
signal to all speakers. You can modulate the distribution of signals between speakers
with the Diversity target in the router.
Logic Pro ES2 extended parameters
ES2 provides additional parameters that are accessed by clicking the disclosure triangle at
the lower left of the interface.
Extended parameters
MIDI Mono Mode pop-up menu: Choose Off, On (with common base channel 1), or On
(with common base channel 16).
In either mode, each voice receives on a different MIDI channel. Per-voice channels
support pitchbend, aftertouch, modwheel, and Ctrl A-F assignment messages. See
Make Logic Pro ES2 controller assignments. Controllers and MIDI messages sent on the
base channel affect all voices.
Mono Mode Pitch Range slider: Set a value from 0 to 96.
The chosen pitch bend range affects individual note pitchbend messages received on
all but the common base channel. The default is 48 semitones, which is compatible
with the GarageBand for iOS keyboard in pitch mode. When using a MIDI guitar, 24
semitones is the preferable setting because most guitar to MIDI converters use this
range by default.
