LC Xmu emulates one or more Logic Controls (LC) or Mackie Controls (MC) in software, so you can use generic MIDI controllers to control and automate many Mac OS X Audio/MIDI host applications that support the Logic/Mackie Control protocol.
Some of key features:
* Use almost any generic MIDI controller
Almost any hardware MIDI controller sending appropriate CC or note Events may be mapped to the emulated LC/MC’s faders, v-pots and buttons. Up to four hardware controllers may be merged into each emulated LC/MC, to provide sufficient emulated LC/MC faders/buttons.
* Sophisticated onscreen display
LC Xmu provides onscreen emulation of the LC/MC LCD screen, Assign display, channel button LEDs and the most relevant function button LED indicators for each host.
* Soft takeover prevents value jumps
Soft takeover for absolute hardware knobs and faders prevents sudden jumps in controlled parameter values when switching between different parameter sets, switching between different host applications, or un-bypassing LC Xmu. The control in the host application will not move until the hardware control passes through the same value.
* Emulate multiple LC/MC’s
Multiple LC Xmu instances may be run simultaneously within a single application, to emulate multiple LC/MC’s — each emulated LC/MC has its own LC Xmu display, and may be switched among multiple host applications, or all emulated LC/MC’s may address the same host (depending on the host implementation).
You may dedicate one or more controllers to each emulated LC/MC, split a controller between multiple emulated LC/MC’s, use multiple LC/MC’s with single or multiple host applications, or any combination — the possibilities are endless.
