Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

Each channel/parameter can be indicated by a name or value. In general, the upper
row of each channel/parameter will display an abbreviated form of the track name, and
the lower row will display the (abbreviated) parameter name and/or value.
In some modes, a long (full, in other words) parameter or other name will be displayed
briefly on-screen, when adjusted. The display of long names, and the duration of this
display, is set in the Control Surfaces preferences. These settings are discussed in the
Logic Reference manual.

Note: 8-bit ASCII characters such as curly quotes and umlaut characters are replaced by
the best-possible 7-bit ASCII equivalent. As examples: ä = ae, ö=oe, ü=ue, á = a, ø = oe,
œ = oe, ß = ss, å = a.

Assignment LED (Mode Display)

The Logic/Mackie Control features a two digit, seven-segment LED display which
indicates the current assignment status (also referred to as the mode display).

A period is shown at the bottom-right of the display whenever a Channel Strip view is
active.

Song Position/SMPTE Time Display

The Logic/Mackie Control includes a multi-digit, seven-segment LED. It is accompanied
by two small LEDs which provide a quick visual indication of the currently active
display format: SMPTE or BEATS.

When BEATS mode is selected, the Position/Time Display is divided into four segments,
separated as follows:

Bars/Beats/Sub Divisions/Ticks

When SMPTE mode is selected, the Position/Time Display is divided into four segments,
separated as follows:

Hours/Minutes/Seconds/Frames

The display format can be viewed in a number of ways. This can be altered in the
Display preferences.

Solo LED

This LED indicates that either: an audio track is set to solo, or the track solo mode is
enabled. It is a helpful visual aid in situations where a track has been soloed and the
fader bank has been shifted—making the soloed track’s Solo LED invisible on the
control surface.
