Module connection for Mackie Clone

For using the MBLC with Sonar, see the thread:

Midibox LC and Sonar Question

in the Troubleshooting forum.  Thorsten created a patch that works great.

ive seen the midibox fix for Sonar allready.

but im using Pro Tools and Logic. i guess theres not a large amount of people that use those recording programs and midi alot.  :-/

See: http://www.ucapps.de/mios_download.html

There is an application for Logic/Mackie, and one for Protools using the MotorMix Emulation.

Here is the article about MotorMix: http://www.midibox.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=concepts;action=display;num=1086542547

I believe Thorsten uses Logic.

The fix for sonar is part of MIDIbox LC v1.5

but im using Pro Tools and Logic. i guess theres not a large amount of people that use those recording programs and midi alot.  :-/

At least for Logic there are still a lot of people who are using this software (at least myself :wink: ) — the possible interactions between Logic and Logic Control are the best I’ve seen so far. The Mackie Control drivers which are part of Nuendo/Cubase and Sonar are poor compared to the implementation from Emagic.

Hi all, just nosing around, looking at the various modules and getting myself psyched up.  This is an awesome project.  I’m going to have to make one once my workbench gets cleared.

I’m curious about the mackie emulation.  The new “mackie control universal” (as opposed to the logic/mackie Control) is the same hardware

with a firmware update.  

Sorry for being unfamiliar with PIC, never used it before…

This should mean that the LC Clone should be able to mimic fully the mackie control universal in the future.

Or is this something that has to happen in the emulation software?

I just want to be sure this box wont dead end if LOGIC makes some change and stops supporting the old style hardware.

Looking forward to more posts.

I guess that the only change is the device ID, which is 0x10 for Logic Control, and 0x14 for Mackie Control. The emulation ID can be defined in main.asm of the MIDIbox LC application.

If there are any other differences, we should always be able to add this to the firmware. Remember the Sonar fix - I found the required extension within 10 minutes by testing the MIDIbox LC with a demo version of Sonar. So - there is no real danger :wink:

Best Regards, Thorsten.

This is just a MidiboxLC firmware update, that Thorsten is going to make after switching to Mac.. or probably to Sonar PC :wink: (I love my Cubase, dammit!)

To be more specific: I don’t know If anyone’s working on this. But if Mackie emulation is realised, and Universal runs on same hardware, it can be done.. know any .asm?

Bye, Moebius

p.s. This platform won’t be dead for ages (Like Logic PC.. Oops, that wasn’t necessary..)
