By default your nanoKontrol sends MIDI Continuous Controller messages on each of its sliders, so you'll assign the corresponding message numbers.
This is where a parameter is tied to a given MIDI message, and its position continuously updates when that message arrives with a new value. It sounds like you already understand this concept, but I'm including it here for completeness. Automation can set up by hand as a post-production step, or can be recorded in realtime, which is what you'll be doing. There's Automation, in which parameters (track volumes, in your case) are programmed to move independently of the audio recordings. There are a couple of basic ideas you're going to use here. I'll talk about Logic here since that seems to be the more common choice.
I haven't personally worked with Logic or Mainstage much, but the basic steps I'm outlining here seem to be fairly DAW-agnostic, and I have applied them in both Reaper and Ableton Live so I presume they work similarly. Don't need to know all of them - just want to achieve what I have outlined in the question, with any of the DAW's that I currently own. How do I use a midi controller to adjust volume automation on a track while recording in Logic/Main Stage/Garage Band such that I can do some basic live mixing for a podcast?Īny of the above software packages is fine.

This is to minimise post-production work, but retaining the ability to tweak volumes on the channels post-production incase there are some slip-ups.ĭoes anyone have any advice on how to get this to work? At the moment I only seem to be able to adjust the master volumes on the channels, and automation seems to be keyframe-based, so I can't get it working during recording. What I want is the ability to record all the inputs and control the volume automation on each of the channels as I'm recording.

I have Logic Pro 9 and Mainstage 2 (unsure which is best for my needs). There will be two mic inputs and a couple of line inputs for playing music. I have a Korg nanoKontrol for controlling volumes, and a Focusrite 6i6 for the various inputs.
I was wondering if I could get some help with how to set-up a podcast in Logic Pro 9 or Mainstage 2?
