Chapter 2 Logic Control—Details 49
Display Zone
These buttons affect what you see in the LCD and Position/Time Display.
Name/Value
To toggle between the two Display formats—Name or Value—repeatedly press the
NAME/VALUE button in the Display section of the Logic Control—just below the SMPTE/
BEATS LEDs. For more information, see the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) section, from
page 21 onwards.
Pressing the NAME/VALUE button, while holding the SHIFT button, cycles through these
three level meter modes:
Vertical—In this mode, the sixth (last) character of each channel in both LCD rows is
overlaid by a vertical level meter bar. When the level meter is not visible, the text
character reappears. We chose the last, rather than the first, character for the level
meter, as this character is blank in many cases, so no valuable information is “blocked
out” by the level meter.
Tip: if it disturbs you that the D letter of the dB unit flickers when levels are displayed,
you should switch off display if units. See the Logic Reference Manual.
Horizontal—with Peak Hold. In this mode, the second row is replaced by horizontal
level meter bars. Peak Hold is shown as a hollow box which disappears after 3
seconds. Overload (clipping) is displayed as an asterisk. It remains on the LCD until
cleared (see below).
Off—In this mode, no level meters are displayed in the LCD.
In all three modes, the SIGNAL LEDs function as per usual, indicating the presence of a
signal.
N. B. The MIDI bandwidth required for the display of level meters is the same in all three
modes—and is very low. The Position/Time Display updates require much more MIDI
bandwidth than the level meters.
Pressing the NAME/VALUE button, while holding the CONTROL button, clears Overload
(clipping) in both Logic’s Environment/Track Mixer, and the horizontal level meters on
the Logic Control.
Pressing the NAME/VALUE button, while holding the CMD/ALT button, enters “Control
Surface Group Settings Mode. Here you can edit several control surface group settings,
some of which are not accessible with a single button:
