Reset Messages Preferences

This tab is only included for compatibility with older MIDI hardware. Logic Pro handles
MIDI Reset Messages automatically and intelligently, so you should generally make sure
that all of these options are switched off (this the default).

All selected checkboxes will send a reset message—for the selected controller type—to
all MIDI outputs. This reset message is sent on cycle jumps and when playback begins,
but the use of these options shouldn’t be necessary.
