Logic Control
Some
parameters
require
confirmation,
such
as
the
selection
of
plug-ins,
Audio
Instruments,
sends,
inputs,
outputs,
and
so
on.
For
these
types
of
parameters,
press
the
V-Select
button
(press
down
on
the
top
of
the
V-Pot)
to
activate/select
the
desired
value.
In
the
case
of
a
plug-in
or
Audio
Instrument,
this
will
automatically
launch
the
Plug-in
window
in
Logic.
For
a
send,
the
confirmed
channel
send
destination
will
be
activated
in
the
Logic
mixer(s).
When
a
value
has
been
pre-selected,
but
not
confirmed/instantiated
(such
as
send
destination,
plug-in
insertion
and
so
on)
the
value
will
flash
until
the
V-Select
button
is
pressed.
An exponential increase in value changes will occur as a V-Pot is rotated more quickly.
The Assignment Zone
The small light gray area just below the mode display contains six buttons.
These
ASSIGNMENT
buttons
work
in
both
Track
and
Global
view
modes.
View
modes
are
discussed
in
“
When
these
buttons
are
pressed,
the
mode
display,
plus
the
LED
associated
with
each
button,
will
update
to
reflect
the
currently
selected
assignment
mode.
The
LCD
will
also
update
to
display
the
parameters
relevant
to
the
selected
assignment.
These
parameters
are,
of
course,
assigned
to
the
corresponding
V-Pots.
All
ASSIGNMENT
buttons
work
as
switches,
which
means
that
if
you
click
them
repeatedly,
they
will
switch
between
the
Multi
Channel
and
Channel
Strip
view
modes.
Â
Multi
Channel
view—you
see
the
same
parameter
for
multiple
channels.
In
Multi
Channel
view,
the
mode
display
does
not
show
a
period—Example:
P1
Â
Channel
Strip
view—you
see
multiple
parameters
for
a
single
channel.
In
Channel
Strip
view,
the
mode
display
shows
a
period
to
the
right—Example:
P1.
Switching
between
Multi
Channel
and
Channel
Strip
views
is
achieved
by
pressing
the
selected
ASSIGNMENT
button
multiple
times.
If
you
press
an
ASSIGNMENT
button
which
is
not
currently
selected,
the
Assignment
mode
changes,
and
the
view
switches
to
Multi
Channel
view.
Exception:
Switching
between
Instrument
Edit
view
and
Plug-in
Edit
view
retains
the
Channel
Strip
view.
