EUControl not working as Makie or HUI with Studio One?

Okay... I understand now... You basically have a hybrid installation of EuControl, which i'm completely familiar with.

So, with that in mind... why not just use the latest version that worked with the Mackie/HUI protocols?

I've also learned to not upgrade to the latest version of software in general... because of the fix one thing at the expense of three others nature of software evolution!

I hate to say it, but the functionality of the Artist Series controllers no longer operate as advertised on the box!

You might be better served to experiment with some of the earlier EuControl versions... even earlier than v3.6, just so you can evaluate what has been lost, or gained over the life of EuControl. Just as a suggestion though!

I know it's a daunting convoluted task to read all those release notes, but in the end... you will probably find a combination of software/firmware that gives you what you need... or not!

You might also have to come to terms with if having just the Mackie/HUI functionality is worth all of the aggravation working with these controllers.

Having a Euconized DAW on the other hand is a completely different scenario, which is another option... just sayin'

Yeah I was trying to run a hybrid setup because I still use Pro Tools. I just downloaded Eucontrol 3.3.2. I'll see whats up with that.

Hey it works now! S1 5.0.1 update works with my Artist Mix running Eucontrol 3.6. Basic controls - Pan, Fader, Select, Solo, Mute, Rec Arm. Nudge/Bank. I think that's it but I'm pretty happy that it works.

Try this if you are still having issues https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/ar...with-EuControl

I particularly liked the latest EUControl is so bad it's even lost the option for HUI or Mackie in the System preferences pane :) I thought maybe it does both now but nope nothing worked.

I found an old forum post here talking about using the MIDI Driver from version 3.6 the old version before it was re-written, I installed that version and bingo it worked straight away. I gave up at that point & got on with work but tomorrow I'll try installing a later version of EUCON but replace the MIDI driver from 3.6.

Hey ya'll I am trying to work this with Ableton and Reaper and I am getting the same thing where the Mackie Control is missing from the systems preferences EuControl section. Any solution to getting that back? Works fine with protools and logic currently. (Running os 10.15)

You are saying in the audio/midi section? Because in System Preferences -> EuControl I have read there should be a column called 'Protocol' but that is missing for somereason. I wonder if it is a EuControl update or something?

[EddieJones]

No. In the mac control panel/prefs theres an Icon Called EUCON. Its in the guide I sent you.
