Changing Recording Light Parameters

As the Recording Light hardware is not actually a control surface, but rather a simple MIDI-controlled display device, all changes to its behavior are made in the Device Parameter area at the left of the Setup window. You can adjust most of the following parameters, if necessary:

• Out Port: Choose the MIDI output port from the pop-up menu.
• Input: Choose the MIDI input port from the pop-up menu.
• Module: Shows the name of the control surface plug-in (Recording Light), which cannot be changed.
• Model: Shows the model name of the control surface (Recording Light), which cannot be changed.
• Version: Shows the firmware version for some control surfaces. Not applicable to Recording Light.
• Color: Not applicable to Recording Light
• MIDI Status: Choose the type of MIDI message that is sent to the recording light device. Generally, this will be a MIDI note on message, but other data types can be transmitted.
• MIDI Channel: Specify the MIDI channel that data is sent on.
• Data 1: Any Record Ready LED: This value determines how the Recording Light device responds to a track being record-enabled in Logic Pro.
• Data 1: Recording: This value determines how the Recording Light device responds when the Record button is engaged in Logic Pro.
• Data 2: On Value: Choose the value for the MIDI event that is sent to turn on the Recording Light device. Typically this value is 127.
