This video will show you how to use a script I wrote to control multiple plugin parameters in Logic with a single fader. This is especially useful for controlling orchestral instruments, which commonly have two inputs for "Expression" and "Dynamics".

0:00 Intro
0:30 Installation
1:20 Tweaking the curves interactively
2:36 Adding additional parameters (EQ)
3:31 The "Safe" way, using the "Modifier" plugin
8:13 The "Unsafe" way without the "Modifier" plugin

Logic Bug:
The version of Logic that I'm using is 10.7.7. This may have been fixed in your version so try out the "Target Parameters" mode and see if it works!
