Tutorial

This section guides you through using UF8 with Logic.
Before You Start...
The information in this Logic Tutorial sets out the key features of using UF8 with
Logic.
For complete, in-depth coverage of all the functions and features you can
control in Logic using UF8, please refer to the Logic Help Menu > Logic Pro
Control Surface Support document. Open the document and go to the Mackie
Control section.
Selection Mode
The primary purpose of the NORM and REC keys in the SELECTION MODE section is to
determine the behaviour of the SEL keys.
NORM - The SEL keys behave as the standard track selection function of Logic.
REC - The SEL keys become track record-arm buttons.
AUTO - Disabled. This key only applies for Pro Tools profiles.
36
V-Pot
At the top of each strip is the V-Pot (virtual
pot). The function of the V-Pot varies,
depending on which V-Pot assignment mode is
currently active (Pan, Send etc) but it is typically used for tasks such as controlling Pan position,
Send levels, Plug-in parameters or scrolling through parameter options/lists.
The V-Pot has a push function, which is typically used for either defaulting the position of a
parameter being controlled or confirming the selection of a parameter being chosen.
100 mm Motorised Fader
Motorised, touch-sensitive faders provide physical control of your Logic tracks and are great for
balancing mix levels and writing automation.
Solo, Cut & Sel (Select)
Each strip contains SOLO, CUT and SEL keys corresponding to the solo, mute and select
features for each track in Logic.
In Use:
When solo'ing tracks, expect the CUT keys of UF8 to flash on all tracks that are not solo'd if the
Logic Control Surface preference 'Flash Mute and Solo Buttons' is ticked.
In Logic MCP (Mackie Control Protocol), only one track can be selected using the SEL key at a
time.
The Mackie Control section of the Logic Pro
Control Surfaces Support contains a full Mackie
Control Protocol guide.
