From the Create Digital Music blog:

Fake (or Customize) a Mackie Control Surface on Mac … and Windows, too!

Every keyboard, drum pad, and audio interface these days seems to be crammed with MIDI faders and knobs, and (if you’re lucky) LCDs. ... Wouldn’t it be great to take better advantage of these controls with programs like Ableton Live, Cakewalk SONAR, Steinberg Cubase/Nuendo, Mackie Tracktion, and even graphics and video programs? ... on the Mac you can use LC Xmu with Apple’s Final Cut Studio.

... Windows has an equally capable program called Wise Mix MCmu. ... Like the Mac equivalent, MCmu lets any MIDI hardware emulate the widely-supported Mackie Control control surface hardware. Any generic MIDI device can be configured ... it gives your Yamaha 01x the same features as a Mackie Control, but with additional options. And LCD feedback on your device means you can see what you’re doing ... Cost: EUR40.

If you do own Mackie Control hardware, this is equally useful, because you can view and modify controllers. It’s the “missing†config tool the Mackie left out.

LC Xmu for Mac - $US 40

Wisemix MCmu for Windows - Eu 39
