Steven_C Posted November 22, 2003 Report Share Posted November 22, 2003 I read in computer music that the commercial Logic Control and the Mackie control can both control all the same software now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pay_c Posted November 22, 2003 Report Share Posted November 22, 2003 Correct me, if I'm wrong, but doesn't that mean that we now only need the MBLC from now on? The MC isn't needed anymore, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven_C Posted November 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 I'm not sure how it works... I think they are different these days... protools HUI support etc. I don't know if it works with old software either.the article was very brief.We also don't have access to the latest info on the midi implementation of these devices, as far as I know... (or half of us would be controlling protools!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidysm Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 what has happened is mackie has now released the mackie control universal which can be switched between lc, hui and mc protocols so all software can be controlled.There is a paid firmware upgrade for existing mc and lc customers.So whilst there is only one unit now, there is still 3 seperate protocols.I think personally that they robbed thorstens bankstick idea.

moebius Posted November 28, 2003 Report Share Posted November 28, 2003 So - I hope that I'm not getting this wrong.. but someone should try to "sniff" or try to get some specs about "this universal" protocol.. ok.. ok.. ok..

Bye, samppaI'm afraid you do have it wrong.It's not a universal protocol, it's a universal firmware which allows the MC to be booted in three modes to output the LC; MC or HUI protocols.It's like using banksticks, ie. it alters what each control outputs to mirror one of the three existing protocols which you choose when you power on.
