DisplayParameters
ThefollowingsectiondescribesthedisplayparametersofaControlSurfaceGroup.
FlipMode
Manycontrolsurfacesofferbothafaderandarotaryencoderforeachchannelstrip.
FlipModeallowsyoutoswaptheencoderassignmentwiththatofthefaderforeach
channel.Alternately,youcanassignbothcontrolstothesameparameter.
Therearefour“flip”or“swap” modes.
 Off—disablesFlipMode,mak ingthefaderactasavolumecontrol.
 Duplicate—makesboththefaderandencoderactiveforthecurrentlyselected
encoderparameter.
 Swap—swapsthefaderandencoder,makingthefaderapancontrolandthe
encoderachannelvolumecontrol,forexample.
 Mute—disablesthefaders.Thisisusefulforsituationswhererecordingistakingplace
inthesameroomasthecontrolsurface,andyouwishtoavoidthemechanicalnoise
ofthefaders.Anyexistingautomationdatawillstillfunctionaspernormal.
DisplayMode
Ifthereisinsufficientspaceavailableforthedisplayofboththeparameternameand
value(onthecontrolsurfaceLCD),youcanspecifywhatisdisplayedhere:
 Value—displaystheparametervalue.
 Name—displaystheparametername.
ClockDisplay
Ifyourcontrolsurfacefeaturesasongpositiondisplay,theClockDisplayparameter
allowsyoutosetthedisplaymode:
 Beats—thesongpositiondisplayshowsBars/Beats/(optional)SubDivision/Ticks.
 SMPTE—asabove,butinHours/Minutes/Seconds/Frames.
Note:Theexactelementsdisplayed,andthustheirpositions,dependontheselected
SMPTEorbar/beatdisplayoptiondefinedintheLogicPreferences.
TrackViewMode
Thisparameterdetermineswhichtracksorchannelsaredisplayed:
 Mixer—displayschannelsintheirorderofappearanceintheTrackMixerwindow
(whileGlobalmodeisdisabled).ChannelStrip1intheTrackMixerisequivalentto
channel1onthecontrolsurface,ChannelStrip2intheTrackMixerisequivalentto
channel2andsoon.Instruments/channelsusedbymultipletracksaremergedinto
onechannel.MixerViewisthedefaultmodeofmostdevices,includingtheLogic/
MackieControl.
