Q: For Mackie Universal Control users...

How do you existing users of these wonderful Mackie and eMagic control surfaces like how the box behaves in Plug in selection/editing...?? Do you find it easy, and intuitive?
I'm now seriously interested in getting a Mackie Universal, or eMagic Logic Control. I've been a user of the Behringer BCF for well over a year now, but hadn't utilized it much beyond the fader, and pan automation. I don't like how it works for manipulating plug-ins.
Thanks!

I've had a Logic Control since it came out. The main things I use it for are:
1. transport functions, including scrolling to a location.
2. dedicated "save" button
3. fader control / automation
4. nudging objects (VERY useful)
5. occasional plug-in parameter adjustment
I find that searching for a plug-in parameter I need to adjust takes longer than just reaching up with the mouse and moving it. With simple plugs (few parameters) this is not an issue, but complex ones have LOTS of parameters. The abbreviations (caused by display limitations) make finding the parameter you want even more clumsy.
Still - the control surface is the way to go to speed up your workflow, as well as helping to spread repetitive-stress injury throughout your body.

  • Mackie universal control

    I want to purchase an eEmagic Logic Control. Will it work with Logic 7.1? Is there a firmware update I would need to get?
    What is the benefit of getting Mackie Universal Control?
    Thanks all!

    Yes it will work fine, no firmware update needed, allthough you can update it if your want, the firmware is downloadable.
    You don't need to upgrade the chips to MCU spec either.
    MCU gives you additional controller models, including HUI modes, which are irrelevant when controlling Logic. And a different colour scheme.
    Note there is a difference between the "Logic Control", "Mackie Control" and "Mackie Control Universal" - basically - don't get a stand Mackie Control, because it doesn't have the Logic controller handling built in, and so can't be used successfully with Logic (unless you upgrade it).
    So in short, a Logic Control will work fine. And you'll love it...

  • 1 connection for 1 universe

    Seeking if its possible for 1 universe, and user 1 accessing connection 1 and user 2 accessing connection 2?
    Many many thanks

    Hi Barry,
    This is BOBJ security issue.
    If you want user 1 to access connection 1 with full or limited right you can do this under CMC.
    If you want user 2 to access connection 2 only with full or limited rights and user 2 should not have access to connection 1 you can do this under CMC.
    You will have to go to CMC and user groups and connection to restrict them.

  • Bug: Universal app input controls (i.e. Start Menu, Task view buttons) ignoring and missing interpretative translation for legacy input control context request (right-click)

    Redundant post - however the topic (title) is different to point out the potential of adding translation for right-click to universal app input controls. The part about a solution for translation is in bold at the bottom of this post ...
    Bug: Universal app input controls (i.e. Start Menu, Task view buttons) ignoring and missing interpretation translating right-click to a left-click to activate context (menu) in universal app web style (similar to oo context menu for oo legacy style).
    Bug: Task view: OO context menu: Should show "nothing" (like right-click Start Menu button) - but right click Task view shows the oo context menu for the Task bar (wrong context)
    Besides behaving wrongly (should be like right clicking the Start button) ....
    the problem is the user is likely to look for actions on that context menu.
    However to activate the context menu for this universal app kind of behavior you actually need to left-click the button for the Task view ... and then you get the universal app like context menu.
    Microsoft must have been trying to figure out what to do about this kind of voupling mismatch between legacy (right-click) and universal app (left-click) conmtext menus. confusing for users it weill become nevertheless.
    But the left-click style supports touch.
    One solution though is to support right-click on i.e. Task view and Start button. Thus for new kind (universal app kind-of)input controls - right-click will work (instead of just being ignored) just like left-click. Allthough not a correct left-click
    - it will be helpful and interpretive translating the intension of receiving a context. A practical solution with right-click translating into left-click for universal app controls considering that the context menu actually has become a hybrid of left-click
    and right-click (with a precedence for left-click though)

    This is a great post.
    I couldn't have written it myself better.
    I'm also in dying need of Korean input as I can't communicate with my Korean friends.
    But I second every point.
    I hope the tech teams are reading this.

  • FaceTime will not connect (but rings) for parental controlled user.

    I have a parental controlled user setup on a brand new mac mini running Lion. When initiating or receiving a FaceTime call as the parental controlled user, the connection rings, but after trying to connect the call fails. When the mac mini user is a normal user (not parental controlled), it works fine. The parental controlled user has their own apple id / email address. Under the parental controls it is set to unlimited web access.
    Any help here would be great.

  • Digi Design 003 or Mackie Universal Pro

    Dumping my Roland VS2480 for Logic Pro and I need an audio interface & controller. I am looking for one complete package but so far I have not identified one. The new Mackie Universal Pro has 1 USB & 3 midi inerfaces but does not appear to have any audio interfaces, USB is not the way to go from what I have read. The Digi Design 003 has all the connections I need - yet all it mentions is Pro Tools vs being a viable alternative for Logic Pro as a controller. If I could mash the 2 together I would. Any suggestions? I have about $2,500 to spend. I have a MAC Pro Quad, 4 GB Memory , 3.0ghz and 1.5 TB storage.

    Hi
    I used to have a Digi 002 with control surface and now have an M-Box Pro and a Mackie HUI for the purposes of this discussion.
    The Mackie works fantastically with Logic as it was codesigned by the Logic and Mackie guys. It works better than the 002 control surface worked with Pro Tools.
    The Mackie also has HUI mode which allows it to control pro tools (still in a better way than the 002 did). You can get a "pro tools overlay" ($20 or something) that shows which buttons do what in the HUI/Pro Tools mode. The modes are switchable.
    The USB cautions you have seen relate to audio and not midi, midi over USB is no problem. I've got the older Mackie which is midi only which is also fine and you can pick them up around $700. It does need a free midi in out though.
    The 003 (whilst pitched as a minor augmentation of the 002) does allow for a midi mode which allows the 003 control surface to control 3rd party software, but the software has to be mapped to the controller which is potentially quite a drag. So there's no "driver/personality" for Logic or Reason etc....
    I would say (and am currently thinking about) having the 003 non-control surface (rack) version and the Mackie as the best of all worlds. The MCU Pro (±$1200 midi & USB ) and the 003 rack $1299 would be one way. Or you could get the rack factory which has a cool plugin bundle for $1695 and the midi only Mackie MCU at around $700.

  • Control User Specific button in ALV report

    Hi,
    Can anybody please suggest me how to control "USER SPECIFIC" button in ALV report layout using authorization object. I mean if you can tell me which authorization object is responsible to control the "USER SPECIFIC" button.

    additional info to what Lakshmi already said:-
    normally the restrictions for saving layouts/display variants are done at 2 levels:
    1) The developer of an ALV list first predetermines the authorization in the 'i_save' parameter within the code.
    I_SAVE = ' '     -
    layouts cannot be saved
    I_SAVE = 'A'   -
    user-specific and cross-user layouts can be saved
    I_SAVE = 'X'   --- cross-user layouts can be saved
    I_SAVE = 'U'  ---  user-specific layouts can be saved
    2) The second level comes to us restriciting the S_ALV_LAYO which gives access to users to save global layouts if I_SAVE for that particular transaction is A or X.
    for example, a report has I_SAVE= 'A', which means
    it will allow to save  User-specific  layouts without any restrictions.
    and if user has S_ALV_LAYO then he can save both User-Specific and Global Layouts(variants).
    it would be better to keep this object separate.

  • Looking for better playback controls

    When I create FLV files for web streaming directly through
    Adobe Flash, I
    can take advantage of many choices of playback controls, my
    favorite one
    being the ArcticExternalAll. The downside: RIPing my slide
    shows takes
    hours.
    The newest version of ProShow Producer has greatly improved
    Flash export,
    allowing me to create high-quality Flash files directly from
    it in a
    fraction of the time -- minutes instead of hours. Its
    downside: Only a
    use-it-or-not choice of one playback control, and it's a
    lousy one.
    I would like to learn more about these playback controls:
    - Which file is responsible for designating the controls, the
    SWF or the
    FLV?
    - Can the user swap one control for another?
    - Can I take the external ArcticExternalAll.swf and somehow
    patch the video
    to include the control file?
    Any input is appreciated...
    Rick A.

    I misspoke, then, or I was not specific enough. I take AVI
    files and import
    them into Flash and then publish them as FLVs. That is the
    sum total of my
    experience using Flash.
    However, I am an advanced computer user and a quick study, so
    if you were to
    point me in the right direction, that is likely all I would
    need...

  • How do I allow parental controlled users to access third party apps on the admin account?

    I just set my son up with a separate parental controlled user account and he can't seem to access some third party games that we installed for him under my admin account. He has saved progress on these games that we don't want to lose, so I don't want to reinstall them. I checked them off as allowed apps, but when he tries to play- the game icon shows up in the doc then changes to the updater icon and they won't run. I've searched for answers to this question, but can't seem to find any. Please help? My son and I would be very grateful!

  • How do I maintain a single iTunes library for two separate iMac user accounts?

    How do I maintain a single iTunes library for two separate iMac user accounts?...without having to manually do something every download?

    Pardon me, I am brand new at using an iMac.  I understand the concept but I don't know exactly how to "move" the library.  I found a shared folder under users on the hard drive.  If I move it, won't I have to redirect each iTunes user to the new shared location?
    If I point iTunes to anything other than the music folder under that user name, it shows as a "shared library".  Preferences still shows it as that users library, regardless of where the advanced gear button says it is pointing to.
    Am I asking for too much to have each user control the exact same music files, apps and playlists?  I just want the two different itunes sessions to mirror each other without any frequent updating or copying.
    We use the same id for itunes music and apps so we could just sync all devices under one iMac user id and not use it under hers.

  • Satellite A100: looking for software to control the fan speed

    Hi,
    I'm looking for software to control/read out the fan speed of my laptop, because Power Saver does not seem to do anything. It does not seem to matter if i set the 'Cooling Method' to 'Battery Optimized' or 'Maximum Performance', or even the fixed CPU processing speed. I've (de)installed the Common Module & Power Saver a couple of times to no avail.
    Also SpeedFan & NHC do not work.

    Hi
    Sorry but I do not agree with your opinion about Power saver utility. Do you really believe that Toshiba create tool like this for nothing? Just for info: power saver utility is not available with Vista OS and on this forum you can find topics where people really missing this nice and useful utility.
    Anyway it is well known that many tools you can find on the internet have no much influence on notebook cooling fan speed. To be honest, something like that can be very dangerous because most users want to have silent notebooks and overheating issues are totally underestimated.
    Can you please be a little bit more specific about your problem? Is your notebook too loud for you or is battery running time to short? Why you are not satisfied with this tool?

  • Hardware requirement for Oracle Universal Content Management

    Hi Experts,
    What are the Hardware requirements for Oracle Universal Content Management ?
    Regards
    Nasir

    does this help?
    Oracle WebLogic Server 11g (10.3.3) System Requirements
    Oracle WebLogic Server supports a number of platforms including:
    – Linux
    – Sun Solaris
    – HP-UX
    – Windows 2000, 2003 Server, XP
    • Processor:
    – At least one 1 GHz CPU is recommended.
    – Intel and UNIX processors are supported.
    • Hard disk drive:
    – A full installation requires approximately 2 GB of disk space.
    – The Linux value for file descriptors must be 4096 or greater.
    – Samples are optional (download from OTN).
    • Memory:
    – A minimum of 2 GB RAM is recommended for WebLogic
    Server.
    – Consider the number of simultaneous users and sessions.
    – Consider in-memory programs, such as Coherence.
    System Requirements
    The following are some of the basic system requirements for Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.3:
    • The Oracle WebLogic Server installer requires a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) to run.
    Oracle WebLogic Server is certified with JDK6.0. As part of the installation, it gives the option
    to install the JRockit JDK 6.0 version. As part of postinstallation, prefix the bin directory of
    the JDK to the PATH environment variable.
    • The Oracle WebLogic Server installer requires a temporary location in which to unpack the
    files. Typically, the installer requires approximately 2.5 times the amount of temporary space
    that is required by the installed files.
    Note: In this release of WebLogic Server, users can choose which components of WebLogic Server
    they use. Specifically, this release allows users to choose whether the Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB),
    Java Message Service (JMS), and J2CA services are started when WebLogic Server is started. The
    benefit of excluding some services is reduced memory footprint and reduced startup time.

  • Table for Valuation Price from USER EXIT - Cost Estimation

    Hi All,
    Can you let us know from where the system picks the price for VALUATION PRICE from USER EXIT when we have following setting in valuation variant
    1.Valuation Price from USER EXIT
    2.Price from Purchasing Info Records
    3. Planned Price 1
    Sub Stratergy.
    1.Effective Price from Purchase Order
    2. Net Quotation Price
    3. Gross Quotation Price.
    Now when we execute CK11N for a material, the system displays a cost price as 316 Euro/ unit.
    But Standard price is 290 euros, info record price is 294 euros & planned price 304 euros.
    Our previous cost estimation ( period 1, current period is 5) was 316 euro/unit (which was not correct), so deleted the cost estimation with CKR1 and try to rerun the cost estimation to update the value (new price), but still the system is picking the old price.
    Can you let us know from where does(transaction code & table) the system is picking the old values.
    In CK11N Material valuation (Valuation tab) its showing as Valuation Price from USER EXIT.
    We have activated Material Ledger with price control "s"and we in ECC 6.0.
    Do suggest.
