HUD Control
The HUD lets you set the start and end values and change the parameter assignment.
Parameters in the Inspector
Start Value: The value that’s added to the parameter at the first frame of the
Logarithmic behavior.
End Value: The value the Logarithmic behavior reaches at the last frame of the
behavior. Over the life of the behavior, the parameter the Logarithmic behavior is
applied to makes a transition from the Start Value to the End Value plus the original
value.
Start Offset: A slider that lets you delay the beginning of the behavior’s effect relative
to the first frame of its position in the Timeline. Adjust this parameter to make the
behavior start later. This parameter is in frames.
End Offset: A slider that lets you offset the end of the behavior’s effect relative to the
last frame of its position in the Timeline, in frames. Adjust this parameter to make the
behavior stop before the actual end of the behavior in the Timeline. Using this slider to
stop the effect, instead of trimming the end of the behavior in the Timeline, freezes the
end of the effect for the remaining duration of the object. Trimming the end of the
behavior resets the object to its original parameter.
Apply To: The Apply To (“Go”) pop-up menu shows the parameter being affected and
can be used to reassign the behavior to another parameter.

MIDI
The MIDI behavior allows you to edit and animate object parameters using standard
MIDI devices, such as a synthesizer. For the true motion graphics mixmaster.
HUD control
The HUD controls allow you to adjust the Control Type, ID, Value, and Scale parameters,
as well as change the parameter assignment.
Parameters in the Inspector
Control Type: Specifies the mode of the MIDI controller. The three available control
types are:
 Note: This mode is displayed when the control is a keyboard key on the MIDI device.
 Controller: This mode is displayed when the control is a knob, dial, key, slider, or foot
pedal on the MIDI device.
