Tascam DM-24 Music Mixer User Manual


 
7. Now we need to split the signal coming from the "Physical Input" in
Logic's environment to go to both the "Sequencer Input" and to the "DM-24".
The Physical Input object is most likely in the "Click & Ports" Environment
layer. Under the Environment Tools box, you will see a pull down menu that
currently says "DM-24". Click and hold down the mouse button, and scroll to
the "Click & Ports" option. The environment screen will now change.
8. Under the New heading, select the "Monitor" option. These creates a
new object that we are going to use to split the output of the "Physical
Input".
9. A long object called "Physical Input" will have a virtual cable
connecting it to another object (most likely the sequencer input). Click
and hold this cable, and then reconnect it to the Monitor object you just
created.
10. The monitor has a small arrow in the upper right hand corner. Click
and hold down the mouse, this creates another virtual patch cable. Connect
this cable to the object that the Physical Input used to be connected to.
Do this by dragging the cable to that object.
11. The monitor object should now have a second small arrow in the upper
right hand corner. You'll use this to split the signal to the DM-24 macro.
Because the DM-24 is on a different environment layer, hold down the option
key before clicking the arrow.
12. This pulls up a list of all the environment layers. Select the DM-24
layer, in which it now shows an object called "DM-24 automation". Select it.
This
automatically routes this cable to the DM-24 layer.
13. Now go back the the "DM-24" layer. In the upper right hand side of the
mixer you should see (scroll if necessary) an object called "DM-24 Output".
Click on the DM-24 Output object, and
select the MIDI port output you have the DM-24 connected on.
14. You may see a lot of scary looking cables connected to all sorts of
objects. You can go to the "view" heading and deselect the "cables" option
to make them disappear. There are also a group of objects to the left of the
main mixer that do not need to remain visible. Simply resize and scroll
your window until they are out of site.
15. You're done! Moving faders on the DM-24 environment layer, should cause
the
faders on the DM-24 itself to react. Inversely, If you move the DM-24
controls, the environment should reflect it.
If you want to automate these controls, create a sequencer track in Logic,
and select the DM-24 as the track destination.
With regards to the effect processors on the DM-24, you can only recall
effects that have been mapped via the MIDI mapping function located in the
MIDI section of the DM-24.
***Please Note*** The DM24 contains multiple snapshots. Some of them have
channel 25-32 set up as four stereo pairs. In this case
channels 26, 28, 30, & 32 on the Logic mixer will have no corresponding
function with the DM-24. If these channels are unlinked, control will return.
DM-24 HYPER EDIT SET
The second tool this file provides you with is a predefined Hyper Edit set.
This allows for the graphical representation of all DM-24 functions you
automate into Logic. There is no import function for Hyper Edit Sets from
within Logic, however you can copy a set from one Logic session to another.
Follow the procedure below.
1. Assuming you¹re already in your autoload session, go to the File
heading and select "Open". Logic asks if you want to close the existing
