March 14, 2002

The Phat Channel is the new extension unit for the Logic Control system. It offers 32 additional V-Pots, which provide direct access to parameters of a track, an audio instrument, or integrated Logic Platinum plug-ins. Perfect overview and ergonomic design The V-Pots found on the Logic Control are the Phat Channel's central control element. The unit features 32 V-Pots with V-select functionality, arranged in four rows of eight V-Pots. A two-line display is assigned to each V-pot row, allowing effective, and intuitive editing. This combination of V-pots and back-lit displays provides hands-on-control of 32 parameters. Further parameters can be accessed via a scrolling navigation system. Additional 'Function' commands allow operations such as the cutting of tracks or crossfading. Ideal for plug-in and software instrument editing The Phat Channel offers the best possible overview and maximum flexibility in creating new patches for your plug-in effects and instruments. It features a "Split" mode which allows different editing functions to be spread across different displays and V-Pots. This functionality allows possibilities such as the simultaneous modulation of the ES2 filter, LFO, and/or Envelope. In this scenario, all filter parameters can be controlled with the first 16 V-Pots, and the remaining 16 controllers can be "switched" between LFO and Envelope parameters independently – without affecting the assignments of the first 16 V-Pots. This affords hands-on control over any modulation source, while retaining control over the filter parameters. Efficient Navigation The Phat Channel follows the channel selection of Logic's Arrange window, and the Logic Control. Channel and plug-in selection can be performed in the software, by the Logic Control, or directly with the Phat Channel. The Phat Channel allows extremely fast navigation, even in the most complex songs: The "Marker" mode automatically assigns song markers to the V-Pots. The "Tracks" mode displays the tracks adjacent to those shown on the Logic Control: pressing the desired V-Pot/track will instantly reassign the selection to the Logic Control faders. The Phat channel is automatically recognized by Logic Platinum. Cursor buttons, transport modes, automation modes and function buttons seamlessly integrate with Logic Platinum.
