Chapter 2 Logic Control—Details 55
Utilities Buttons
Save
Saves the current Song file. When pressed, a file save dialog will open on your
computer screen, waiting for you to enter a filename as per usual.
The Logic Control LCD will display There is a file select dialog on the screen
and the Position/Time Display will show
ALErt
. All LEDs will go off.
Once the file save has been confirmed—in Logic—the Logic Control will return all
controls to their status prior to invoking the Save command.
Once the song has been saved and given a name, you may freely use the SAVE button
to save any subsequent changes. This will happen without the alert messages and file
save dialog appearing onscreen.
As a general working tip, you should always save your autoload song under a different
name as the first step in any project. If this practice is adhered to, you will be able to
simply press the SAVE button on the Logic Control to incrementally save your work.
The SAVE LED illuminates as soon as any save-able change has been made in Logic.
Holding down the OPTION button while pressing SAVE opens the “Save As.” file select
box.
Undo
Pressing the UNDO button undoes the last undoable editing step. As Logic 5.1 supports
virtually unlimited multiple undo/redo, The green UNDO LED does not illuminate to
indicate an undo-able step, but to indicate that Redo is available. This warns you that
performing an undoable editing step would render all Redo steps unavailable.
Holding down the SHIFT button while pressing UNDO performs a “Redo”.
Holding down the OPTION button while pressing UNDO opens the Undo History
window.
Cancel
If an alert is open on-screen, it triggers the Cancel (or Abort) button. More information
on alerts is found in About Alert Messages section on page 23. Pressing the CANCEL
button when no alert is opened will launch the Toolbox at the current on-screen
position of the mouse cursor. Alternately, it will perform any function currently
assigned to the computer keyboard Esc key.
If no alert is open, and Logic Control currently displays the contents of a folder track,
the CANCEL button lets you leave the folder.
