Get Your Hands on This Game-changing Control Surface!

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 Alps faders, eight V-Pots and more than 50 master buttons let you get tweaky with 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 really simple - no mapping required - and enables you to see your mix in action with real-time visual feedback via the gigantic backlit LCD and eight LED rings.

Mackie Control Universal Pro Expandable Workstation Control Surface at a Glance:
    • Touch-sensitive control surface with expandable options
    • MIDI interface
    • Proprietary communication protocol for really simple software integration


Expandable Touch-Sensitive Control Surface with 100mm Motorized Faders
The Mackie Control Universal Pro's 100mm touch-sensitive Alps 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 accurate 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 genuine time.

DAW- and MIDI-friendly
An built-in USB MIDI interface is included for direct connection to Mac or PC, plus up to 3 more 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.
