Level 4: Mackie Control Universal
The MC supports the Mackie Control Universal protocol to control both DAWs and
other software (i.e., Apple’s Final Cut Studio applications) that support this protocol.
Mackie Control mappings are saved with Application Sets for instant recall when each
application becomes active.
1.1.5
Level 5: EuCon High-Speed Control Protocol
EuCon is a control protocol originally developed by Euphonix to communicate between
the System 5 control surface and its software applications. Applications specifically de-
signed to work with the MC and the EuCon Application Programmer Interface are
called
EuCon-aware
applications, while
all
others are called
generic
. EuCon-aware
ap-
plications allow a higher level of integration than generic applications.
The EuCon protocol enables high-speed, bidirectional communication between Euphonix
consoles, the MC, and EuCon-aware software applications. The MC and a EuCon-
aware application are tightly interwoven so the host application does not see the MC as
a controller, but as an integrated part of its user interface. Every MC control can intelli-
gently and rapidly access any function in a EuCon-aware application.
Steinberg’s Nuendo EuCon
Nuendo includes full EuCon support via an optional Nuendo EuCon module, enabling
control from Euphonix control surfaces (i.e., MC, System 5-MC, and System 5 film
post-production and music consoles). The Nuendo EuCon module is sold exclusively
through the Euphonix distribution network and packaged with MC and System 5-MC.
Apple’s Logic Pro
Logic Pro supports the EuCon protocol (as of v.7.2.1), enabling full control of all Logic
Pro tracks, plugins, and other parameters through the MC and System 5-MC. EuCon
support is built into the application and does not require any special configuration or
additional software from Apple.
Merging Technologies’ Pyramix with OASIS and EuCon Support
Pyramix users must purchase Merging’s OASIS control protocol package option, which
automatically enables EuCon control. Oasis is available through Merging’s distribution
chain for use with the Euphonix MC, System 5-MC, and System 5 Hybrid consoles.
