MACKIE CONTROL PROTOCOL
The mixer can be controlled with any control surface device using a Mackie Control protocol option. Some controllers support
several protocols, so it’s important to confirm that the device is set to the Mackie Protocol Mode. There are also tablet
applications that emulate controllers using Mackie Control protocol. Consult the user guide of your control surface.
Control protocols are assigned and removed in the Control rack of the System Inventory
page. Select the Mackie protocol from the drop-down menu. Click on the Gear button to
open the Mackie Control Surface Options panel.
The SoundGrid Studio / Mackie protocol provides for two control devices.
For each, select an input and output port. The selected device appears in
the MIDI devices/port window.
A single MIDI port will map 8 faders at a time; using two ports will allow
for 16 faders at a time.
