Add a control surface to Logic Pro — Apple Support

Some control surfaces such as Mackie Control are detected automatically when you open Logic Pro. You can add other devices that are not detected automatically using the Setup window. Installation is covered in the setup section for your particular device.

When you add a control surface device, it is represented by an icon in the Device area of the Control Surface Setup window.
