Euphonix devices
Set up your Euphonix device in Logic Pro
Logic Pro supports the EuCon protocol developed by Euphonix. This protocol allows
enhanced communication between the MC Pro, System 5-MC, MC Control, MC Mix, or MC
Transport and Logic Pro.
Note: Euphonix were acquired by Avid in 2010. Newer devices that use the EuCon protocol
now carry the Avid name.
The term Euphonix device is used when describing all devices as a group, regardless if
they are Avid or Euphonix-branded units. MC Professional device is used when speaking
about the MC Pro and System 5-MC. Avid or MC Artist device is used when speaking about
the Avid Artist series, MC Mix, MC Transport, and MC Control. For any exceptions to the
above, individual device names are used.
Note: This is an addendum to the Avid or Euphonix user documentation and is limited to
descriptions of features specific to Logic Pro. Refer to the Avid or Euphonix documentation
for more information about the individual control surfaces.
Depending on the specific Euphonix device you have, the setup process varies. Follow the
steps below to use your Euphonix device with Logic Pro.
Note: EuCon support in Logic Pro works in a different way than other supported control
surface devices. As a consequence, you cannot use the Controller Assignments window
to change assignments. See the documentation provided with your Euphonix device for
information on the use of parameters and device features. EuCon devices do not appear in
the Control Surfaces Setup window.
Set up your MC Professional device for use with Logic Pro
1. Set up your device as described in the Euphonix user documentation.
2. Install the latest EuCon software on your computer. (If necessary, go to the Euphonix
website to download the most recent version.)
Note: Installing EuCon software on the MC Professional device requires the installation
of two applications—one for the MC Pro device (EuConMC software), and a second for
the computer (EuConWS client). Full details are in the Euphonix user documentation.
3. Open Logic Pro.
The startup screen lets you know that Logic Pro is starting EuCon.
4. On the MC Pro, press the workstation button associated with your computer.
The MC Pro display shows an Attaching to Logic Pro progress bar.
