ONYX 1200F
Onyx 1200F with DAW and External Controllers
This illustrates the potential of the Onyx 1200F to do entire band recordings with a minimum of
physical gear or large recording spaces. Everything except the singers are “virtual!” A USB MIDI
interface is used to connect an external MIDI keyboard controller and MIDI drum controller to
the computer running the DAW software, and a Mackie Control Universal connected to the MIDI
I/O on the Onyx 1200F to control the DAW. The DAW is running an amp emulation plugin for the
guitars and virtual instrument plugins for the keyboard and drum controllers.
