Chapter 1 Using Logic 41
MIDI
• The uppermost box, the Status menu, displays the type of MIDI message that is used
for the key command.
• Channel: Indicates the MIDI channel number of the incoming message. This
parameter is disabled if the Status menu is set to unused.
• Data 1: This field indicates the first MIDI data byte. As an example: This field will
show and allow the entry of a MIDI note value if the Status menu is set to Note.
• Data 2: This field indicates the second MIDI data byte. It is disabled if the Status
menu is set to anything other than Control Change or Poly Pressure.
• Learn MIDI button: Enables you to teach Logic a particular MIDI command to perform
a key command function. You must enable this button before Logic will accept any
MIDI data for use as a key command trigger.
Assignments
This field displays the control surface assignment associated with the selected key
command. It is only relevant when a control surface is used with Logic.
Each line displays:
• The name of the control surface, or the MIDI string if the assignment is from an
unsupported control surface.
• The name of the control. If the name is shown in gray, this indicates that the
assignment is currently inactive (because it is part of an inactive mode).
• Zone and Mode that the Assignment belongs to, if applicable.
Note: The display is updated when a Zone changes its Mode (when holding down a
modifier button, for example).
Double-clicking on a row will show the assignment in the Controller Assignments
Editor (see “The Controller Assignments Window” on page 500).
