Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

Well,

    My excitement is pretty short lived here, and I'm losing heart.

    Each of the Yamaha's 14 faders also controls output to 4 Aux tracks, so I started 
assigning them as "banks" so in Logic I could control ... a LOT of tracks, I was hoping.  But 
I got 28 more tracks assigned that way ... then Logic got ticked off and stopped 
recognizing the MIDI from the Yamaha.

    It may have got ticked off when I tried to move 5 faders at the same time??  3-4 worked 
fine ... so I don't know.   Maybe toggling between standard and Aux fader positions some 
MIDI data got kind of confusing for Logic for a second??

     I'll probably resort to assigning 8 controllers to Audio tracks, 8 controllers to 
Instrument tracks, and 8 to Bus channels.  With my typical work format that should help 
me .... assuming I can get Logic to move my yamaha faders.

      This is probably too much information for some of you, but this study could help 
people in the future.

      If older, digital mixers can work as good MIDI control for Logic ... that would be a 
great resource for Logic users!!

      Pete

Pete,

What do you see when you do Preferences->Controller assignments? Can  
you clean up your fader assignments from there?

I think in that window you have to delete one by one.  There's not a "reset" or "delete all 
assignents."
