    Mackie Control Universal Pro Details
    The Mackie Control Universal Pro control surface completes your music production software to give you ultimate hands-on control of your mix. Nine motorized, touch-sensitive Penny + Giles faders, eight V-Pots and more than 50 master buttons let you tweak parameters to your heart's content. Unlike generic MIDI controllers, the MCU Pro employs a sophisticated communication protocol that delivers ultra-precise control, makes setup easy - no mapping required - and enables you to see your mix in action with real-time visual feedback via the huge backlit LCD and eight LED rings.

    Expandable Touch-Sensitive Control Surface with 100mm Motorized Faders
    The Mackie Control Universal Pro's 100mm touch-sensitive optical Penny + Giles motorized faders give you accurate, smooth, real-console feel, bringing the hands-on vibe of analog to your state-of-the-art DAW productions. The same fader set is also featured on the seamlessly-integrated Mackie Control Extender Pro and expansion module, which also shares the same channel strip functions.

    Proprietary Mackie communication protocol for seamless music production software integration
    Mackie's proprietary communication protocol lets you get the most out of your software, giving you precise control over setups and control surface assignments - no mapping required! In addition to the unit's versatile faders and 50 dedicated buttons, accurate V-Pot rotary encoders allow you to manipulate software, plug-in effects, and virtual instruments. And the backlit LCD screen lets you easily monitor your mixes in real time.

    DAW- and MIDI-friendly
    An onboard USB MIDI interface is included for direct connection to Mac or PC, as well as up to 3 additional pieces of external MIDI gear (with even more control capability when integrated with the Control C4 Pro expansion module). Software-specific Lexan overlays are also included, allowing the Control Universal Pro to be easily adapted to your DAW.

    Awesome Controller January 13, 2010
    Reviewer: Joe Genuino from Corona, CA United States  
    Very intuitive controls on the Universal pro, it comes with lexan overlays to customize it to the DAW program you use.. It doesn't come with an Ableton one, but it does have Sonar (which I use), Cubase and Protools. Programmable buttons are cool.. So far it's worked for what I need it to do, but the only thing thats stopped functioning properly is the motors for the faders, in some channels particularly the 5th and the master get stuck all the way at the bottom. Overall though its good if your not looking to bust your budget on a large controller but still need the flexibility of a Pro console.
