USING MACKIE CONTROL UNIVERSAL WITH MIXCRAFT
The Mackie Control Universal (aka MCU) is a full-featured mixer-style control surface
with channel strip and transport controls, a jog wheel, and numerous other controls.
Because it’s designed to work with numerous DAW programs, all of its controls may not
apply to Mixcraft, but we’ve implemented as many controls as possible in order to best
take advantage of MCU’s control interface. Below is a list of the currently implemented
controls:
MCU Control Function
Rewind Transport Control moves playhead back by 4x snap value
Fast-forward transport control moves playhead forward by 4x snap value
Stop transport control stops playback or recording
Play transport control initiates playback
Record transport control initiates recording
Master fader sets master volume
Jog wheel moves playhead forward or back by snap value
Flip button reverses V-Pot pan and vol fader controls
Channel fader sets track volume
V-Pot rotate (channel strip) above channel strips, sets pan
V-Pot push (channel strip) resets panning to center
Rec/Ready (channel strip) arms channel recording
Solo (channel strip) solos the track
Mute (channel strip) mutes the track
