Mackie Controller

[mix_master_adam]

I was wondering how well the Mackie controller works with Pro Tools. I would like to get the full controller with 32 faders, as well as the new C4 option. The question I really want to be answered is how the control surface can help in navigating between parameters inside of plugins, as well as access to different windows, automation, and any thing else possible?

I have the mackie controller universal, so i dont now about the C4 option - even though i would love
to own one.

With the controller you have access to everything you could wish to have when you mix a session.
I'm totally addicted to the controller

For information on what and how you can navigate it with protools, read the following pdf
Mackie Control Universal for Pro Tools User's Guide

Hope it helps

Maybe not the best solution.
You will still have to bank over to the MC to adjust plug-in parameters, you will be able to assign them from the extenders but not adjust them.
PT doesn't support the C4.

As things are currently the cheapest multi-fader full function setup is the Control24.
