AN003 : Bitstream 3X – Mackie/Logic control emulation
Ableton Live 6
In the two above screenshots, Input and Output associated to the Mackie control are “WaveIdea Bitstream
3X”, and
not
“Wave Idea Bitstream 3X [2]” which is dedicated to the non emulated controls
In order to avoid any MIDI loopback (resulting in MIDI overflow), the Bitstream 3X MIDI merger output
connected to Ableton Live must be disabled (this is already the case if the Mackie library file has been
downloaded to the Bitstream 3X)
From the Bitstream 3X menus : MIDI Config -> MIDI Merge -> Merger Outputs -> USB Out 1 -> Off
Please note if you are using the MIDI Output instead of the USB output, the merger configuration described
above must be changed accordingly.
