Mackie Mackie Control Universal Control Surface

Mackie Mackie Control Universal Control Surface

Mixing with your computer keyboard and mouse can be like tying your shoes with chopsticks. That's why we designed the Mackie Control Universal to deliver full hands-on control over popular audio software applications including Logic, Pro Tools, Cubase, Nuendo, Sonar, Digital Performer, Vegas, Audition and more... all right from your desktop.

Unlike other control surfaces, Mackie Control Universal goes far beyond simple faders and transport controls. In fact, thanks to proprietary hardware and software protocols pioneered by Mackie, MCU gives you the most comprehensive feature set on the market. With nine 100mm Penny+ Giles optical touch-faders, a full-sized backlit LCD, V-Pots for fast tweaking of parameters and plug-ins, a full implementation of Logic Control -- as well as shortcut navigation and editing for all major audio software -- MCU is the first and last desktop control surface you will ever need.

With optional expandability via MCU XTs and the new Mackie Control C4, Mackie Control Universal is also the only software control surface that can grow with your studio.

Ever wish you could control Logic Audio, Pro Tools, Cubase, Digital Performer, SONAR and other major audio software, all from a single, hands-on control surface with real knobs and automated faders? With Mackie Control Universal, you can.Mackie Control Universal is much more than a way to balance levels. It gives you realtime control over your music in ways your keyboard and mouse never will. With 100mm Penny+ Giles optical touch faders, a full sized backlit LCD, V-Pots for fast tweaking of effects and plug-ins, a full implementation of Logic Control, and shortcut navigation and editing for all major software including Pro Tools, this is the first and last desktop controller you will ever need.At just one-third of the cost of other professional systems, with expandability via optional Control Extenders, Mackie Control Universal gives you the perfect hands-on surface to make music faster--no matter what software you use.
