Arm/disarm tracks for Touch Automation.

I am going to try mapping Touch Bar commands to keypad commands.

There are dedicated buttons on the MCU for Automation which accomplish setting the Automation modes.

The GROUP button caught my eye — it is NOT an Automation function. It does let you control group settings and add/remove tracks from groups. The cursor pad controls which group and lets you scroll through the parameters.

Automation modes determine how automation tracks are treated. Automation is either being read or being written. You can independently set the automation mode for each track. You can also trim automation values and record relative automation data.

Touch: Plays back automation in the same way as Read mode. You can modify the value of the chosen automation parameter by moving controls in Touch mode. After the fader or knob is released, the parameter follows existing automation on the track.

  Show Event Position and Length as Time or Bars/Beats    ⌃⌥R

There are three event/region lists or windows that I know of. The Event list in the List Editors panel, Event list windows (you can have lots of them), and the Event Float window. I like to have the Event Float open in my mixing screenset to see which channel (track) is selected.

The setting of time or bars/beats affects only the window that has focus. In the Event Float window you have to use the contextual menu to change the setting — there is no keyboard focus for the window so the command key won’t work.

On a Mackie Control you can press the SMPTE/BEATS button to toggle the display between time and beats. The X-Touch has a bit of a wrinkle if it is being used in XCTL/MCU mode (XCTL over network, MCU over MIDI) since the SMPTE/BEATS button controls which mode the control surface is in. The display can be changed in the Control Surfaces>Setup menu — choose SMPTE/Beats in the Clock Display.

Change the position and length of events — Logic Pro X

The units shown in the Event List Position and Length/Info columns represent bars, beats, divisions, and ticks (or SMPTE time, when View > Show Event Position and Length as Time is active). Counting begins at 1 for each unit (first bar, first beat, first division, first tick: 1 1 1 1), and continues until it is carried over to the next largest unit.

Numerical input starts from the left (which means you can enter the bar number only, and press Return, if you want to move an event to the beginning of a specific bar, when entering a value). The units can be separated by either spaces, dots, or commas, allowing you to type 3.2.2.2 or 3, 2, 2, 2 or 3 space 2 space 2 space 2.

  Duplicate Track Alternative    ⌃⌥⌘D

This looks interesting. I haven’t really paid attention to track alternatives — they use the same channel strip and plugins which is typically what I want to manipulate.

My typical workflow is to separate the interesting part into a new region and place that region on a new track. I can manipulate as much as I want, only affecting the isolated region(s). It is clearer to me working this way as opposed to doing region-based processing which I might use for repair. Think special processing on chorus vs. verse.

Use track alternatives — Logic Pro X

You can create and edit track alternatives and switch between them. Each alternative can contain different regions or arrangements, while sharing the same channel strip and plug-ins. Track alternatives are like “playlists” for individual tracks that can be used to try out different ideas or archive tracks at different stages of development.
