Open/Close MIDI Insert 5 Plug-in Window of focused Track — Logic Pro X keyboard command of the day

  Open/Close MIDI Insert 5 Plug-in Window of focused Track

Work with the MIDI Insert in slot 5 on the focused track. Defined commands go up to MIDI Insert 15, but documentation and implementation show that there can only be 8 MIDI Inserts.

Use MIDI plug-ins in Logic Pro — Apple Support

MIDI plug-ins are inserted in software instrument channel strips and process or generate MIDI data—played from a MIDI region or a MIDI keyboard—in real time. Included are the Arpeggiator, Chord Trigger, and Modulator, along with plug-ins for transposition, randomization and other processing. Scripter enables you to create your own MIDI processing and generation scripts.

MIDI plug-ins are connected in series before the audio path of a software instrument channel strip.

MIDI plug-ins have a MIDI input, the MIDI processor, and a MIDI output. The output signals sent from MIDI plug-ins are standard MIDI events such as MIDI note or controller messages.

Open/Close MIDI Insert 8 Plug-in Window of focused Track — Logic Pro X keyboard command of the day

  Open/Close MIDI Insert 8 Plug-in Window of focused Track

Opens the plug-in in the eighth slot on a MIDI instrument (external or software instrument). The number of MIDI inserts seems a bit excessive to me, there being documentation for 15 slots, with only 8 actually available. I suspect there are some sequences of arpeggiators or other mapping/modification tools that could be applied.

Work in the plug-in window in Logic Pro — Apple Support

The header area at the top of a plug-in window is common to all plug-ins. You can use it to adjust the size of the window, link plug-in windows when more than one is open, switch the plug-in parameter view, and route side chain source signals.
