knoxhole Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I just got a new midi controller (m-audio keystation 32) and it has a volume knob on it. When plugged into Logic, the volume knob acts as expected, but it's not adjusting the volume fader. So I assume there is a midi volume parameter? I'm not terribly familiar with the ins and outs of midi, so I'm sorry if this is really basic. I've just been putting the volume knob at 100% and using the channel's fader for mixing volume. Is there a better position to leave the volume knob at? Can/should I disable that midi parameter completely on the controller so that it doesn't even matter?

shivermetimbers Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 If you have no intention of using the volume knob, then yes.... disable it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knoxhole Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 Thanks for the reply. How exactly do I go about disabling it in Logic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shivermetimbers Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 you could go into Midi preferences/Settings - Input Filter - and disable the CC box. This should filter out any cc messages like cc7 (Volume). Or better yet, look at pg 12 of your manual and change the function of what the Volume wheel controls.

David Nahmani Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 In Logic you can choose File > Project Settings > MIDI > General and select "Control Change 7/10 controls volume of channel strip objects" to have MIDI Volume events (CC #7) move the channel strip fader, if that's what you want.
