The Track Header Configuration dialog offers the following elements:

Control Surface Bars checkbox: Select this checkbox to view the control surface bars in

the track header. These bars indicate tracks that are accessed by control surfaces
connected to your system. Each control surface can be assigned a different color in the
Device Parameter box. For more information, see the Logic Express Control Surfaces
Support

Track Numbers/Level Meters checkbox: Select this checkbox to display a track’s number.

During playback, a small level meter replaces the track number. For external MIDI or
software instrument tracks, this meter indicates the velocity of the recording, and turns
red to denote a maximum velocity value. For audio tracks, the level meter denotes the
output level.

Track Icons checkbox: Select to display or hide the track icons in the track header.

Allow Large Icons: Select to display large track icons in the track header when you

increase the vertical zoom of the Arrange area.

Names section: Use the pop-up menus in this section to determine the names displayed

in the track header. For more information, see
