  Tap Tempo
 

Logic keyboard commands window says this is only available as a keyboard command. I see it assigned to two different keys — ‘T’ and ‘D’ (downbeat).

Not clear what this really does. There is an entire section on Tempo that is currently not under my radar.

Tempo overview
Every project has a tempo, which is expressed in beats per minute (bpm). You can set the tempo in the Project Chooser when you create a project, and change it later while you are working. You can set the project tempo in the LCD in the control bar. By default, the tempo for new projects is 120 bpm.

Self-explanatory? Probably.

This command (keyboard only) is used in the Score Editor.

Score Editor interface
The Score Editor displays MIDI regions as music notation, including notes, rests, and other MIDI events such as sustain pedal markings. You can add and edit notes and other musical symbols. Lyrics, titles, and other text can also be included in the score. You can control the display of individual staffs, extract parts from the score, modify the overall score layout, and print or export complete scores, partial scores, and parts.”

Link Control Surfaces — Logic Pro X keyboard command of the day

  Link Control Surfaces

I have this selected in all of my mixer views.

When this is set the “mixer view” buttons on the MCU (MIDI TRACKS, INPUTS, AUDIO TRACKS, AUDIO INST, AUX, BUSES, OUTPUTS) control the MCU and the mixer view in Logic. Pressing AUX causes the mixer to display AUX channels, etc. When this is not set the MCU will display channels without changing the mixer view in the Logic mixer window.

I have discovered that the setting is remembered for each mixer “window” — the “Mixer” window and the mixer “panel” in the arrange window.

I think I want my Mixer window to not be linked, but keep the Arrange window linked. I may change my mind.

SHIFT-GLOBAL VIEW on the MCU toggles between “Tracks” view and previously selected view.
