Apple logic pro 8 Handbuch

 

You can fully control Logic Pro with a Mackie Control, and can 
extend its functionality with several expansion devices. 

The information in this chapter applies to the Mackie Control Universal, the original 
Mackie Control, the Logic Control, and the Mackie (or Logic) Control Extender (XT). The 
term Mackie Control is used for all of these devices throughout the chapter.

The controls of the Mackie Control are physically grouped into different areas, called 
zones. Each zone is clearly labeled, and distinguished by different shades of gray on the 
device. The following descriptions of Mackie Control features and functions is 
organized by these zones.

When you open Logic Pro, it automatically detects any powered Mackie Control unit 
that is connected to your system. You can use the Mackie Control immediately—with 
the default settings—or can customize settings, as described in “
