Show/Hide Assign 1 — Logic Pro keyboard command of the day

  Show/Hide Assign 1

Toggle the visibility of MIDI Assignable Controller knob 5.

There I times when I wish I could return to my 1990s MIDI rack and program and mix with 21st century tools. Of course I can get almost all of the MIDI gear in software, so it’s simply about racks of gear. Should spend some time with Reason so it can look pretty 😉

Select Cable Destination ⇧→ — Logic Pro keyboard command of the day

  Select Cable Destination   ⇧→

Selects the object that is the destination of an attached cable. Easy way to navigate the MIDI Environment.

I like to think of working in the MIDI Environment as writing assembler (machine) code. Right down there at the bare instructions. Working in the Tracks view is writing Objective-C. Oddly different from C++ or C, but nicely powerful.

This function allows you to follow the cabling from one (serially cabled) object to the next. If several objects are connected in parallel, or several cable connections are selected, the path of the upper cable is followed.

Logic Pro track header overview — Apple Support

You can customize the track header by showing or hiding different track header controls, to optimize your workflow. You can also resize the track headers to give yourself more room to work in the Tracks area.

 I change my default track header configuration every once in a while. Finally decided to save a better default for my mixing and mastering work since I don’t record often, or at all, really.
