4.1.2 Mackie Emulation Protocol
The FW-1884 can be used to emulate the control mes-
sages sent by the Mackie Control

. When in Mackie
Control Emulation mode, the audio and MIDI func-
tionality of the FW-1884 are unchanged, but the
MIDI messages transmitted and recognized by most of
the control surface are changed to closely pattern those
of the Mackie Control. This enables you to use the
FW-1884 with software applications which may not
yet directly support the FW-1884’s Native Mode, but
do support the Mackie Control.
To set up the FW-1884 in Mackie Emulation proto-
col:
1 Open the FW-1884 Control Panel
2 Select the Settings tab
3 In the drop-down CONTROL PROTOCOL
menu, select MACKIE CONTROL EMULA-
TION.
For detailed information on how the FW-1884’s con-
trol surface maps to controls within specific applica-
tions, please refer to the application notes for the
corresponding FW-1884 application note.
