118 Chapter 5 EuCon Support of Euphonix MC and System 5-MC
Note: If you have been using an earlier EuCon version, you should delete or rename
the Logic Pro.xml file before installing newer EuCon versions. This file is used when
controlling Logic Pro with the Euphonix device(s) HUI emulation—and will cause
conflicts when controlling Logic Pro in EuCon mode.
Exit the MC Preferences menu, and return to the operating system by choosing
Euphonix > Shutdown > Exit to Operating System, then open the
C:\Program Files\Euphonix\EuCon\UserSets\MCUser\MC_USER_SET__Root folder and
rename or delete the Logic Pro.xml file.
5 If you have a CM408T and the correct MC software is running: Choose Euphonix >
Prefs > Modules, select the CM408T in the All Online list, then touch Add.
6 Open Logic Pro.
The startup screen advises that Logic Pro is starting EuCon.
7 On the MC, press the workstation button associated with your Macintosh computer.
The MC display will show an “Attaching to Logic Pro” progress bar.
Note: The EuCon support of Logic Pro is not achieved in the same fashion as other
control surface devices. As a consequence, you can’t use the Control Surface
Assignments Editor to change assignments. You can only use the facilities provided by
the MC or System 5-MC. More information about this can be found in the operation
manuals provided with your EuCon devices. EuCon devices do not appear in the
Control Surfaces Setup window.
Setting Up Soft Key Assignments
The “Logic Pro.xml” Application Set file—installed with EuCon version 1.1.2 — features a
number of useful Soft Key assignments. The MC Touchscreen can be used to edit them.
To change a Soft Key assignment:
1 Touch the Euphonix Menu icon, then choose Setup in the ensuing pop-up menu.
2 Select the respective Soft Key.
3 Choose the desired EuCon command in the menu.
Logic Pro supports the following EuCon commands:
 Key Commands: All Logic Pro key commands (except the transport commands) are
found here. The Touchscreen uses the same hierarchy as the Key Commands window.
Many of these key commands switch between states (on/off, for example) or set a
value. Most also provide feedback on the Soft Key (as an example: a Soft Key
assigned to the Open/Close Score Editor command is illuminated when a Score
Editor window is open).
