Page Up ⇞ — Logic Pro X keyboard command of the day

  Page Up    ⇞

Scrolls the current window contents upwards. Repeated scrolling should bring you to the top of the page/list/window.

Page Up and Page Down keys match direction. Home (left) and End (right) scroll horizontally. The MCU scrolls using the scroll arrows. On the X-Touch you have to press and hold the Zoom key while scrolling up/down, right/left. If the scroll key is _latched_ the tracks will zoom. If the scroll key is not latched the arrows work as the arrow keys on the keyboard.

Show/Hide Project Audio — Logic Pro X keyboard command of the day

  Show/Hide Project Audio

Shows or hides the project audio browser. There is a button in the control bar — one of the browser collection — that can be used to show the project audio.

The browsers (and the commands) show evidence of being added to and changed over time. Project Audio is clumped with browsers, but not called a browser. “Media” browser has no command available to show or hide, just clicking on the “Media” tab in the audio/media/file browser.

There is a command sequence on the Logic Control — SHIFT-F8 — that is mapped to ‘Show/Hide Project Audio’. A bit of reading in the Control Surfaces manual leads us to the term ‘Audio Bin’ which is now known as ‘Project Audio’.

A lot of the Logic workflow can be inferred when reading _old_ documentation.

When tracks are soloed this command will clear the solo status for all of the soloed tracks. Issuing the command again recalls the solo state of each of the previously soloed tracks. Quick way to switch between “some” soloed tracks and “no soloed” tracks.

On the X-Touch you press and hold the OPTION key while clicking any SOLO button that is engaged. This command is also available in Logic Remote on the iPad and iPhone.
