Multiple Monitor control with Mackie Control and Behringer DEQ2496

Hi,
I have recently moved over to Logic from Cubase due to the support for Mackie's C4 control. In Cubase I was used to having really excellent monitoring options but I have found this really lacking in Logic - maybe I'm missing a trick or two.
What I'd really like to do is at the click of a button, preferably on my Mackie Control, switch between monitor speakers.
If possible, I'd also like to be able to change the program via a MIDI program change on my Behringer DEQ2496 graphic eq as I have different settings for both sets of monitors - is there some kind of macro functionality that could do this?
Any help would be very much appreciated.

Answering my own question.  Apparently, I had substituted one bad Midi interface for another. In a desparate move, I picked up a MIDISPORT UNO (took out the Korg PadKontrol) and problem resolved.  The MIDI OUT port on the PadKontrol introduces big time latency.

  • Euphonix MC Mix and MC Control vs Mackie Control Universal Pro

    Whats up.
    I read the Euphonix artist series controllers working as specified with logic Pro 8, has that been fixed ?
    Comparing the Euphonix MC series to the Mackie Control USB, which is a better controller and a better purchase ? And which works best with Logic Pro 8 ?

    Just saw this over at Gearslutz:
    We are pleased to announce the release of EuControl 1.2.2
    What's New
    MOTU Digital Performer 6 (v6.01 or later) now directly supports EuCon, giving you added in-depth control of DP from MC Control and MC Mix. You no longer need to configure DP to use Mackie Control. Detailed setup instructions are found in the EuCon Application Setup Guide (PDF), included with this installer.
    EuControl now remembers which surfaces are in the My Surfaces list. This helps in facilities where other EuControl users are on your same network, as only surfaces that belong to you are added when EuControl starts. If this applies to you, go to the Surfaces tab and change the new Automatically add: pop-up button to My Surfaces only.
    The default setting is All Surfaces, which is used when you are the only person running EuControl in your home or studio. It provides a no hassle, plug and play experience, automatically adding your surface(s) so you never have to manually edit the My Surfaces list.
    MC Control users can speedily scroll through Pro Tools tracks using the jog wheel. When controlling Pro Tools, go to the Soft Key tab and assign the EuCon command Left Edit > Nudge to a soft key. Toggle this soft key on. Turn to jog wheel to nudge forward and backward through all tracks.
    Bug Fixes
    Improvements in knob sensitivity when controlling certain Pro Tools plug-ins. If using Waves plug-ins with Pro Tools, be sure to select the HUI control surfaces support (low res) checkbox in the Waves Preferences dialog box that comes up when launching Pro Tools. You can hold the shift key during Pro Tools launch to show this dialog.
    In the Insert Special pop-up button found in the the Soft Key Command Editor's Add... Key command, the \, Keypad Enter, Return, and Spacebar keys now work correctly.
    General stability fixes.

  • Selecting Multiple File Types With Path Control

    My application uses a file path control for the user to specify an output file.  This output file can have two different formats (.csv or .mbf) which is unknown until the user specifies it through the file dialogue.  However, when the user inputs a file name with a .mbf extension (test.mbf, for example), the file path control automatically appends the typed-in name with a .csv extension (test.mbf.csv).  Given that the Pattern field on the control is written like this: *.csv; *.mbf., it seems that the control is simply taking the first file pattern listed and appending it to whatever is typed into the File Name field in the file dialogue box.  Selection Mode is set to "Files" and "New or existing".
    Anyone know a way to smarten up the file control to recognize the appropriate file type?
    Using LabVIEW 8.6.1.
    Thanks!
    Andrew
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Instead of using the file path control, try using the Fial Dialog Express VI. This will bring up the same dialog box but will allow you much more flexibility. Replace your file path control with a button ("Specify Path" in my example code):

  • IBAN: no control with Key Bank and Bank Account

    Hi,
    I maintain the IBAN number via SM30 (SAP 3.1I), but there is no control between the IBAN and the corresponding Key Bank (TIBAN-BANKL) and Bank Account (TIBAN-BANKL).
    This means you can enter a valid IBAN whatever the key bank and bank account number.
    Ex:
    BANKS BANKL  BANKN         IBAN
    NL    019    0192331515 -> NL94RABO0192331515
    NL    024    0240640764 -> NL94RABO0192331515
    u2026
    If anyone has resolved this issue ?
    Thank you
    Laurent

    I think, System validates IBAN when you flag "Bank data" check box in country specific checks (General settings). Check this setting in your case.

  • Transaction control with DI Server and B1WS

    Hi everyone,
    recentily I started working with DI server and B1WS, and talking with friends and with a brief research in the foruns Its seens to be impossible to have a Rollback in database transactions performed with DI server and B1WS.
    Its really true? I mean, I receive the Session ID when I use the login service, it shouldn't be so difficult to have a rollback function with this info...

    Really? Anyone knows?

  • Dual monitor setup with Docking station and W500 on windows 8

    Hi there
    I have a w500 with ATI Radeon 3650
    Trying hard to have it set up with windows 8 and two monitors with my docking station. It worked with XP, Vista, W7...but no go now.
    Any solutions out there? I don't care about catalyst control center, or which drivers I have to use, just give me back my two monitors connected to a docking station

    I have the same W500 setup and have had no luck finding Windows 8 drivers on Lenovo's site or AMD's. I have a support ticket in to Lenovo to see what they come up with. I have two flat panel monitors that I need to work. According to  MS, Catalyst Control Center has compatibility issues with Win8. It was easy to set up both monitors under Win7 with CCC. I have not been able to set them up using Windows display setting in Control Panel. Does anyone out there know of an app that I can use to replace CCC and run two monitors?

  • Dual monitor issue with 10.8 and Windows 7 (bootcamp)

    I've a read a lot of threads here about people having nightmare-ish problems after upgrading.  Thankfully, this isn't one of them, just a frustration that I'd like advice on.
    My system:  2010 13" MBP, 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8GB RAM, 320GB HD.  Work setup has external 17" Dell Widescreen monitor connected with VGA to miniDisplay adapter.  Home theater setup has 23" Dell monitor connected with HDMI to miniDisplay cable.
    I upgraded from 10.6.8 to 10.8, as I like to stay up to date and it seemed ML fixed many of the Lion issues.  After finding out Front Row is completely gone I just about reverted (my laptop doubles as my home theater control).  I found XBMC, and it works, sort of (anyone with news on whether Front Row will be returned to us, let me know!).
    Enough babbling, my issue:
    When I switch from bootcamp windows 7 back to OS X, my second monitor's resolution is all screwed up (very low) and the dock and menu bar are BOTH on the second (Dell 17") screen, though it's not in a mirror mode.
    Usually the dock is on the laptop screen, and the menu bar is on the second.
    All I have to do is unplug the miniDisplay port and plug it back in, but is there a setting I'm missing to keep me from having to do this?  Also, I've never used Windows at home, so I've never had to switch with the 23 inch monitor connected.  Don't really want to try as that system is working quite well right now.
    Thanks!
    -Rob

    It's NVidia GeForce 320M.
    Just checked the drivers page and the Mac side only lists up to 10.6.8
    Should I assume that the update needs to be on the Windows 7 side?  At one point last November I tried to update on the Windows side and it caused all sorts of **** on my system causing me to have to reinstall both OS X and 7.
    May be worth another try?

  • Tascam US-2400 with Mackie C4 and Logic

    Anybody using Logic with Tascam US-2400 (USB) control surface and a Mackie Control C4 plug–in controller (MIDI) at the same time?
    Wonder if there would be a conflict using both, but seems like a nice Logic setup if it could work.

    Typically, its not about if a piece of hardware works with LPX.. It's whether or not it works with 10.8.x and if the Devs have written drivers that are compatible with 10.8.x that really matters....
    In the case of Tascam, sadly, they don't have a good track record of providing support for newer OS X versions and instead just "end of life' their older products....
    You will see from the following thread that the problem caused by Tascam not providing updated drivers for Mountain Lion, affects other DAWs Like PT and not just Logic...
    http://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=342253
    As for the 2400 and ML 10.8.4 itself...
    At the moment, there doesn't appear to be anything new forthcoming from Tascam.... and they are not being overly helpful in regards to the non compatibility issues of the 2400 and ML 10.8.4 because as far as they are concerned they have "end of life"d that model...... Contact Tascam to register your wishes for a ML 10.8.4 driver.. Maybe if enough users do so, they might have a change of heart.. but based on their past history, I wouldn't hold my breath.
    A few users have reported that they got their 2400 working under ML 10.8.2 but when asked how, none have been forthcoming with any answers.. The majorityof 2400 owners have stated its basically a 'no go' in regards to things like Fader movement etc... even using HUI compatibility mode... under Mountain Lion and have either moved on to new hardware that is fully supported under 10.8.x or have rolled back to 10.6.8 and Logic Pro 9 or whatever other DAW they use that works under Snow Leopard.
    Finally, Apple made a mistake including the 2400 as a 'supported' hardware in the info for LPX and ML.... (They just copied the list over from the one they used with LP9 and Snow Leopard) They have since suggested that they will be updating the list and the 2400 will be removed from that list as Tascam are seemingly not intending to update their drivers for it any further....

  • Lost Control of Mackie Control Pro

    Hi,
    Up to now everything has been going well with FCP, STP and MCU Pro, yesterday I upgraded to FCP 6.0.4 and OSX 10.5.5 and have lost the use of my Mackie Control Universal Pro. The device works with logic 8 and so I assume that the OSX is OK? Does anyone know of any known issues regarding the Mackie and FCP?
    Anyone suffering the same problem?
    Just to add some more on the subject. The transport control seems to be working with FCP along wikth the jog wheel. However the faders go throught the calibration process when you start up but then return to the bottom of the tracks. The display no longer shows the track numbers instead it says simply "Mackie Control Universal PRO by Mackie Designs, Inc. V 3.0.0". I have tried reseting the control panel in FCP and rebooted the MCU to make double sure it is in Mackie mode. I did try Logic mode but get the same as above.
    Hoping someone can help me out.
    Thanks.
    Mac G5 Quad with 8GB RAM. Decklink HD Extreme. Sonnet 1.5Tb RAID. Sonnet Sata Card. Sonnet FW800 Card. Yamaha GO46 firewire audio interface. MCU Pro via USB.

    A look at the Mackie web site finds that the MCU Pro is compatible with FCP 5 and
    OS ver. 10.3.9 to 10.4.9.

    I have a Lenovo 420i attached to a docking station which has 2 DVI ports nad one VGA port.  One DVI port is being used, so I have one external monitor.  I want a 2nd external monitor.  Can I attach  and use a second external monitor on either the 2nd DVI port or the VGA port?

    Hi The_skwire,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    As per the query we understood that you are looking 2 external monitors for your ThinkPad T420i.
    Yes, it will support 2 external monitor, and also make sure graphic driver are up to date.

  • Monitor problems with Mac Pro and Leopard

    I can't turn energy saver off.I have two LCD monitors connected, one 19" Viewsonic VX924 and one 30" Dell3007WFPHC . I set energy saver:Put the display(s) to sleep when computer is inactive for Never.
    Yet I can turn the monitors off and back on later and it's put the Viewsonic to sleep ,but not the Dell.
    I then open the energy saver system preferences again and low and behold it's changed itself back to sleep at 26 minutes.Ghost in the machine?Why doesn't it put the Dell to sleep as well?????Why does it keep changing back to 26 minutes regardless of how many times I set it to never and lock it?
    I even tried just using the Viewsonic only and setting to never,I also trashed a pref file I thought was energy saver , still same behavior, this is a REALLY big hassle ,because I have to restart every time just to get this monitor back up.
    Any clues?
    Many thanks!

    I think there are some powermanagement prefs in your account and in /Library but I also read of problems with ViewSonic VX back when the Mac Pro came out in 9/06.
    I would give the SMC button a good 'kick' and see if that helps.
    And when you restart, this is normal safe restart, or forced?
    SMC button, this is restart button on the inside of the mac?
    It's always a safe restart,the whole computer doesn't go down, it's just the viewsonic power light blinks on and off and there is not much I can do to get back up quickly, but restart. I have played with display settings and got it back before, but that's hit or miss and very time consuming.
    Thanks you so so much for your help and suggestions!

  • Multiple monitors support in mission control?

    I have two monitors, a Wacom Cintiq and my MBP and i want Mission control to interact between the two spaces, not have them work with independent spaces that move together when i make the "swipe" gesture. Either they should SWITCH between spaces depending on which screen i have my cursor on, or they should SCROLL from one monitor to the next..
    thoughts? help?

    Do you have 3 displays, 2 monitors+1 MBP display? Are you using the term space to mean the combination of all of your displays, a specific display or something else? I have a MBP and 1 external monitor and I would like to understand what you are saying.

  • Linear actuator controlled with external encoder and smart motor - randomly stops

    Hi,
    This is my first experience with Labview or any sort of programming for that matter.  I am using an Animatic Smart Motor Model: SM1720M version 4.15b with an Ultra Motion Bug linear actuator: 4-2B.125-SM17-3.2-1NO-B/EC4 and a 600 series optical encoder.  I am trying to write a VI that allows me to manually control the linear actuator using the encoder.  I attached the one I have been using, but for some reason it randomly stops working, generally  when the actuator is extended about an inch and 2 1/2 inches.  It stops in the same general area, but not the exact same spot.  Any ideas?  Any help would be much appreciated!

    1. The VISA Clear and VISA Close should be outside the loop. You do not want to be re-initializing the VISA session each time through the loop.
    2. You have the port initialized to use line feed as a termination character. When using termination character, you should not use Bytes at Port. Just set the byte count input of VISA Read to a constant larger than the longest message you expect to receive.
    3. With the termination character you do not need the waits between or before the reads.
    4. The 10 ms Wait in the outer loop is rather meaningless when the start button is True. The VISA Write takes much longer than 10 ms for the string you are writing. It does make sense to have a Wait in the False case.
    5. The start button is set to Latch When Released mechanical action. With that setting it retuns to False every time it is read. The result is that the code in the True case only executes one time for each press of the button. Is that what you want?
    A state machine architecture is more flexible and more robust.
    As to why it stops in a particular place, you have not given us nearly enough information to even guess. What is the relationship between motor speed and displacement? Where do you do anything with the encoder? What is the format of the encoder output? How far does the motor move at various speed settings during one iteration of the outer loop? Where is the command to stop the motor when it gets to where you want it? 
    What error messages, if any, do you get when it stops?

  • Simple straight line motion control with brushless motor and encoder/mi​croswitch

    I want to go build a motion control system/program using labview. I have a brushless motor and a controller and a National instrument DAC (NI USB-6009). This is how my system looks like: receive an input signal 4-20mA, this should be converted to 0-5V for the controller for speed, controller should move motor till it hits micro switch. The micro switch/encoder should generate a signal (5V) back to shut the controller. I want to record the position of the motor in labview. How do I do this? How do I set the system up? Thank you in advance

    Controller from anaheimautomation: MDC151-050301
    Motor:BLWSG234D-36V-4000-R3     
    Controller and motor go together.
    The input signal for the system will be 4-20mA. Using this signal I will correlate it to a specific voltage which will drive the speed of the motor. This will displace the lead screw linearly. I will have a microswitch that will be triggered by screw and will relay a signal to shut the motor. I want find a way to record the position of the shaft/leadscrew at that specific point. I want to identify a home position, halfway position and full length travel position. I will use 3 swiches or 1 switch in three positions to identify all these points.
    My end result should be whwn I turn on the system or start the program It should detect whether it is at the home position, if not travel to home then respond accordigly given an input signal(4-20mA).
    How will I program such on labview...finding all the right icons to record the data is such a mess for me since i'm a beginner.
    Thanks
