Intro to Play Surfaces in Logic Pro for iPad
In Logic Pro for iPad, you can use Play Surfaces to play and control the various software instruments in your project by touching the screen of your iPad.
By default, the Play Surface shown depends on the type of instrument patch loaded on the selected software instrument track. However, you can play any software instrument with any of the Play Surfaces. If you prefer to always use a particular Play Surface, you can set it as the default for all instrument patches by locking the Play Surface.
You can turn on side controls to show performance controls, including pitchbend, modulation, note repeat, and velocity range.
For more information about Play Surfaces, see the following topics:
Note: Drum patches that use track stacks use an enhanced Drum Pads Play Surface that offers extended features and flexibility for designing your own drum patches. See Drum Machine Designer overview.
You can also play software instruments using an external MIDI device connected to your iPad.
