    It's been a while that I have this VST I heard a lot of good effect but I don't know how to use it for drawing automations iin logic pro and especially for the slow down effect because the regular slow down effect from logic sounds weak thanks
    I hope in logic pro 10 they'll add a plugin like vari-fi lol

    @ Learner,

    How do I use the "MIDI Learn" feature?

    If you want to control any of the sliders with MIDI CC messages, you need to first assign specific CCs to the sliders. This is done with a simple "MIDI Learn" system.

    To put a slider in MIDI Learn mode:

    Activate the slider by control-clicking on it (in the VST version) or shift-control-clicking on it (in the Audio Unit version), or simply right-click on it if your mouse has more than one button. You will see the blue light above the slider handle light up, as will the MIDI Learn light. This means that it is in MIDI Learn mode.
    Next, generate some MIDI CC message (move your MIDI keyboard mod wheel, move a slider on your MIDI controller box, etc.) and you're done! The first CC message that SFX Machine Pro receives will be the CC type to which the "MIDI Learner" becomes assigned.

    Now your MIDI controller will control the slider you selected.

    To erase a MIDI assignment:

    Click on the "MIDI Learn" light. It should briefly turn red, indicating that you have erased your MIDI assignment.

    Please note that MIDI control requires a host application that can send MIDI to plug-in effects. Please see your host application documentation to find out whether your host supports this and, if so, how to configure MIDI for effects.

    Thank you for reminding me of this very capable multi-FX. I've just made a track with it... :) Yay! Great FX.

    Dont know logic in fact i havent even try it out (well i tried that cracked pc version when they where emagic but it was so buggy so i had to uninstall it)

    If you dont have a midi-controller you can use the pen-tool to draw automataions
    atleast in cubase but i believe you can do the same thing in logic.
    (taken from apple.com = You can also create and edit automation graphically. = that must mean the pen tool.)

    You must first assigne what parameter on the effect you wanna use of course

    I tested it in cubase with sfx machine pro as an insert and the only parameter i could use was left delay - right delay - wet - dry and bypass maybe you can use more if you use cc but those where the parameters i saw that was pre-ready for automatation..
