| M-Audio UC 33e Details
The Evolution UC-33e is an affordable USB hardware controller designed to be used with any computer music/MIDI setup. The UC-33e allows instant and simultaneous control of up to 47 different parameters, and with 33 memory locations it's easy to change your setup quickly. With its compact and intuitive design, the UC-33e fits into any studio, putting the power of music software right in your hands.
Using controllers should be easy but it often isn't. Setting up patches can be complicated and frustrating, and it's often a headache just to remember which knob controls what parameter. The UC-33e comes with 33 pre-set configurations, allowing instant control of the most popular virtual instruments and host applications (including Propellerhead Reason and Ableton Live). The UC-33e also ships with 5 color overlays customized to your favorite software program, plus a blank template you can tailor to your personal setup needs.
All assignable real-time controllers are easily programmed via the numerical keypad. Each of the UC-33e 47 controllers can transmit pre-programmed Sys-Ex messages and can also be programmed to transmit on individual MIDI channels. Your setups can be stored in any of the 33 memory locations for easy recall. The Memory dump facility allows the entire contents of the UC-33e to be sent from the unit to your desired location. A librarian program for PC users is also included for saving, editing and sharing keyboard setups.
The UC-33e unique controller mute function mutes the output of all controllers, allowing you to position them before tweaking, thereby eliminating jumping filters or levels during your performance. The unit also features a drawbar mode for the sliders, which greatly enhances the experience of playing virtual instruments such as Native InstrumentsEB4 Organ.
The UC-33e can also be used with a conventional MIDI setup, for live performances, or as a remote controller for your existing studio rack. When used in standalone mode, the MIDI Out can be used to send MIDI controller data to your MIDI rack.
