Screen display
Because
of the complexity
of automation
it
is ideal
if
there
is a screen to display the fader levels.
The logic automa-
tion sends out continuous
controllers
for each of the faders
and on buttons
on the console.
This means a conventional
sequencer
which has some form of graphical :MIDI mixer
will be able to display the fader levels and mutes.
Slave mode
Although
the automation
is on board it is possible to
switch the Logic console to slave mode so
it
can be con-
trolled from a sequencer.
You can turn slave mode on and
off under the :MIDI page (see reference
section).
When
slave mode is on, the faders on the console do not control
the level but instead the level is controlled
by
the
sequencer.
As with the screen display above continuous
controllers
are used to adjust the level of the faders.
How-
ever, due to the lower resolution
of :MIDI the smoothness
of the level control
is reduced.
