Mackie Protocol

Hi,

I read here: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=midibox_lc&s=mackie

When Mackie made the LC, and then the MCU, they made the protocol public.

Does this mean the mackie protocol is public? I could not find any link or information about it. I saw a few reverse engineered things but nothing official.

Does anyone know more about this?

Best Regards

You haven’t searched in the Wiki (keyword: “Mackie Control”, first hit):

Thanks.

I found this document, too. But as it is just saying logic control everywhere I didn’t think it was the same as the mackie?

Logic Control was created by Mackie - they renamed the device to Mackie Control a few months before Emagic (the company which developed Logic Audio) was bought by Apple.

This happened many years ago, therefore you won’t find so many guys who know the history :wink:

Best Regards, Thorsten.
