Mackie and Emagic to Combine Control Surface Technologies
July 30, 2003
Mackie Designs and Emagic Software and Hardware GmbH announced an agreement to merge their audio control surface technologies. Under the terms of this agreement, future Mackie engineered control surfaces will include the combined functionality of both Logic Control and Mackie Control as well as Mackie's HUI protocol.
Beginning in August, Mackie and Emagic will also release an upgrade that will allow both Mackie Control and Logic Control owners to take full advantage of the combined functionality.
"The Mackie Control/Logic Control platform has become one of the most widely used dedicated control surface platforms to date; with nearly 8,000 combined users worldwide," commented Jamie Engen, President and CEO at Mackie Designs Inc. "This sharing of technology means that users on both sides will benefit from a truly universal platform that supports all major DAWs. They will dive deeper into their favorite software platforms while moving seamlessly across multiple platforms as needed."
