Mackie MCU Pro
Without the Mackie Control Universal Pro, your music production software just isn't complete. The Mackie MCU Pro rounds out your software's functionality to deliver the ultimate in hands-on command. In fact, your software was designed with the Mackie MCU Pro in mind. Developers access the Mackie MCU Pro via its unique communication protocol pioneered by Mackie and determine precisely how the Mackie MCU Pro works for you. That means the Mackie MCU Pro integrates with your software like no other hardware controller. Say goodbye to sub-par responsiveness to your mix adjustments, trying to remember which knobs are assigned to which parameter, and the tedious process of MIDI mapping. With the Mackie MCU Pro, you get deep, intuitive control of mix and plug-in parameters, real-time visual feedback and set up is plug and play without any MIDI mapping whatsoever! And the Mackie MCU Pro goes far beyond simple faders and transport controls, it gives you the most comprehensive feature set on the market. With nine Alps touch-sensitive faders, a full-sized backlit LCD and V-Pots for fast tweaking, the Mackie MCU Pro is the only desktop control surface that can truly make your music production experience complete. With optional expandability via Mackie Control Extender Pro, the Mackie MCU Pro is also the only software control surface that can grow with your studio.

Mackie MC Extender Pro
The Mackie MC Extender Pro 8-Channel Control Surface Extension is slightly narrower than a MCU Pro bus has all the channel strip features of the MCU Pro without the master section. Depending on your music production software support, multiple Mackie MC Extender Pro units can be used together with a MCU Pro to emulate a large-scale control surface with as many faders and pots as desired. The Mackie MC Extender Pro adds eight motorized, touch-sensitive Alps faders, plus V-Pot rotary encoders and push-buttons on every channel strip. The Mackie MC Extender Pro module attaches seamlessly to the Control Universal Pro unit, integrating with all the main control surface's functions and commands without the need for any external hardware. You can expand your MCU's ability to control your DAW even further with the addition of the Mackie MC Extender Pro.

What We Think

The AEA N22 NUVO / RPQ500 Package from Front End Audio was created with the expressed purpose of maximizing one's sonic potential with the AEA ribbon microphone system. It's no secret that ribbon microphones sound great! But it's also no great secret that they sometimes have special care & feeding requirements when it comes to gain and impedance. So, the preamp relationship becomes paramount! AEA's RPQ500 with it's CurveShaper EQ circuit gave the idea to make a bundle, which would include the 500-series power supply for free! Now with the emergence of the Fredenstein Bento 2, we've updated the bundle from a single space PSU to include this 2-slot power supply. The good news is that, not only is Fredenstein making a very reliable and well built set of tools, but the 2nd slot allows for this bundle to be expanded with the addition of another RPQ500 or any other 500-series module your heart desires. So, it's like slowly building your very own RPQ and your pace. Many of our customers have loved the option of purchasing this system at the savings that it offers. We invite you to discover the awesome power of a fully operational Ribbon Microphone System from AEA as assembled from us here at Front End Audio.
