Master Fader
Controls
the
level
of
the
Master
fader
in
the
Logic
mixers.
This
reduces
the
level
of
all
tracks,
but
does
not
affect
their
relative
positions.
When
there
is
no
Master
Volume
Object
in
the
song,
Logic
Control’s
Master
fader
is
mapped
to
Output
1-2.
You
need
to
select
this
Object
(Master)
in
order
to
set
the
automation
mode
of
the
Master
output.
To
do
so,
press
the
OUTPUTS
button
and
select
the
master
output
with
the
corresponding
SELECT
button.
If
you
use
multiple
audio
systems
simultaneously,
the
MASTER
fader
only
controls
the
first
device’s
Master
Volume
(in
the
order
shown
in
the
Audio
Preferences
window).
Display Zone
These buttons affect what you see in the LCD and Position/Time Display.
Name/Value
To
switch
between
the
two
Display
formats—Name
or
Value—repeatedly
press
the
NAME/VALUE
button
in
the
Logic
Control
Display
section—just
below
the
SMPTE/
BEATS
LEDs.
For
more
information,
see
“
Pressing
the
NAME/VALUE
button
while
holding
the
SHIFT
button
cycles
through
three
level
meter
modes:
Â
Vertical—In
this
mode,
the
sixth
(last)
character
of
each
channel
in
both
LCD
rows
is
overlaid
by
a
vertical
level
meter
bar.
The
text
character
reappears
when
the
level
meter
is
not
visible.
The
last,
rather
than
the
first,
character
was
chosen
for
the
level
meter,
as
this
character
is
often
unused,
so
no
valuable
information
is
“blocked
out”
by
the
level
meter.
Note: If you find the flickering
D
of the dB unit disturbing when levels are displayed,
you should switch off the display of units. See “
Â
Horizontal—with
Peak
Hold.
In
this
mode,
the
second
row
is
replaced
by
horizontal
level
meter
bars.
Peak
Hold
is
shown
as
a
hollow
box
which
disappears
after
three
seconds.
Overload
(clipping)
is
displayed
as
an
asterisk.
It
remains
on
the
LCD
until
cleared
(see
below).
Â
Off—In this mode, no level meters are displayed in the LCD.
