Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

There is a good discussion string on the Apple Logic Pro forum that deals w/ this issue. The consensus is that using dB is more accurate/reproducible in engineering terms anyway and consistent w/ other DAW's eg Pro Tools, so Apple took away the option to use numbers for faders & sends.

Subject: [Logic_Cafe] dB vs Num values (127) in Volume automation?

  
Greetings to All:

I have been using Logic for many years, and in previous versions (i.e. pre-Logic 9), one could choose between dB & Num in order to change the values used in making automation volume adjustments. This choice was available in the inspector. The dB/Num pull-down option was just under the choice of MIDI channel in an audio track or virtual/plug- in instrument. This option seems to have been dropped in Logic 9, and only dB values can be used in volume automation.

Personally, I often prefer using the Num values.

Am I missing something? Does anyone know of a work-around?

Thanks,
drdave
