M-Audio iControl channel strip controls in Logic Pro
The right side of the iControl features eight rows of controls that you can use to edit channel strips. Each row includes Select, Record Enable, Mute, and Solo buttons plus a rotary encoder.
Channel strip controls
Select button: Press to select the channel for channel-based editing or assignment commands. When a channel is selected, “Sel” is lit on the button.
Note: If the Track Info button is lit, the Select buttons behave differently. See M-Audio iControl Assignment buttons in Logic Pro for details.
Record Enable button: Press to arm the associated channel strip for recording. When a channel is armed for recording, the dot is lit. Press the Record Enable button a second time to disable recording for the channel.
Hold down the Option button and press the Record Enable button of any channel to disarm all channel strips.
Mute button: Press to mute the channel. The speaker icon is lit when the channel strip is muted. Press the Mute button a second time to unmute the channel strip.
Hold down the Option button and press the Mute button of any channel to unmute all channel strips.
Solo button: Press to solo the associated channel strip in the application. The headphone icon is lit when the channel strip is soloed. Press the Solo button a second time to exit Solo mode for the channel strip.
Hold down the Option button and press the Solo button of any channel to hear (unsolo) all channel strips.
Rotary encoder: Each channel features a rotary encoder, located to the right of the Solo button. The function assigned to the encoders changes when different Assignment buttons are pressed. See M-Audio iControl Assignment buttons in Logic Pro.
Pressing the Option button while turning a rotary encoder—regardless of the active assignment mode—switches between the parameter’s minimum, default, and maximum values.
