DM-24 LOGIC ENVIRONMENT Instructions for Mac OS This DM-24 Template file provides you with two powerful tools for integrating Emagic's Logic sequencing software with Tascam's DM-24 digital console. It requires Logic 4.5 or higher. DM-24 MIXER MACRO The first tool is a Logic environment macro that appears as a visual representation of various DM-24 functions. Macros are a single Logic environment object, that are actually comprised of many different objects that are packed together. Ultimately this allows you to view things such as fader position, mute status, panning, and preset recall of effects and snapshots. Also, the status of these functions will automatically update on screen as you change setting on the DM-24. You can also grab controls on Logic's environment screen, and watch the DM-24 immediately respond as well. All though this looks cool, and is sure to impress your friends, the real power is in being able to automate these functions within Logic's sequencer. The advantage of getting the DM-24 macro installed into your Logic session requires a few steps. Logic has to be made aware that the DM-24 exists in your system, and this is accomplished by simply copying the macro from this downloaded session file, and pasting it into your Logic session. You'll probably want to paste the macro into your autoload session, so that the DM-24 will be present in any new session you create. 1. It is necessary to have bi-directional MIDI communication between Logic and the DM-24. Connect a MIDI cables from an output of your MIDI interface to the MIDI IN of the DM-24, and from the MIDI OUT of the DM-24 to an input of your MIDI interface. 2. Launch Logic. This should automatically create a new session from your autoload template. 3. Go to the windows heading, and select "Open Environment". 4. In the Environment window, select "options", and go down to where it says "Import Environment", and then select "Layer...". 5. Logic now asks you to locate the file from which you want to import the environment layer. Locate and select the "DM-24 template" file on your drive. 6. It now asks you to choose the layer you want to import. Select the
