QUICK LOGIC MIXER FOR DM-24

OVERVIEW

This solution is recommended for those times when only VOLUME, PAN and Program change parameters are needed. The advantage of using this mixer in place of the template is that the tracks will be part of LOGIC’S MIXER and therefore will be available on the same screen. If more in depth control is needed then the DM-24 TEMPLATE would be a better choice.
1) SEND/RECEIVE Volume (CC#7)
2) SEND/RECEIVE Pan (CC#10)
3) SEND/RECEIVE SySex (as recorded into Logic Tracks)
4) SEND/RECEIVE DM-24 Track Automation (recorded real-time into Logic tracks)
What it will NOT do:
1) Send Custom CC#s (other than those RECORDED into Logic’s tracks).
2) Send SySex (other than SySex recorded/dumped into Logic Tracks).
The main difference between this and the DM-24 template is that the template allows the programming of Custom CC# & SySex commands to faithfully represent the DM-24 surface. Using a MULTI will allow only the above listed controls but, will be part of Logic’s MIXER and therefore easier to access and control for those times when quick adjustments of basic controller are needed (i.e. Volume, Pan, Prg. Chg). It will not send MUTE info since it uses Logic’s internal code to mute its own tracks, without sending an equivalent MIDI controller number. However, it will record MUTE commands FROM the DM­24 and play them back as recorded making it possible to do automated mutes.
CREATING A DM-24 MULTI
Open Logic’s ENVIRONMENT and choose NEW>MULTI.
You will see that the channels within the newly created MULTI are crossed. Click on each one to activate them so that they will be visible (and selectable) from the Arrange window.
Now, click on the MULTI and choose the MIXER icon and click YES when prompted to change for all sub-channels.
Click on channel 1 and activate BANK/PROGRAM change. Do the same for channel two. This will allow you to select SNAPSHOTS and EFX patches from Logic.
Now, click on the name and name it…DM-24 - That’s it! Easy!

USING MMC

ON THE DM-24: Go to the DM-24 MIDI/MMC page and select an OPEN LOOP. Move the cursor to the PLAY button in the window and press ENTER. Do the same for RECORD. Use the ROTARY DIAL to select which tracks you would like to us to ARM Logic’s track. You have a few choices, select the one you prefer (1-8, 1-16, 1-24, etc…).
IN LOGIC: Go to the OPTIONS>MIDI page and select LISTEN TO MMC. Chose ID=ALL
