Mackie Control C4 Note

The Mackie Control C4 provides easy editing of
DSP and virtual instrument plug-in parameters. Its
fl exibility allows you to make simple or complex
edits across multiple parameters quickly and pre-
cisely.
It can be used as a standalone controller, or in
conjunction with Mackie Control Universal, Logic
Control, or Extenders for complete analog-style
control over instruments and plug-ins.
The Mackie Control C4 is automatically detected
and set up by Logic Pro 7, simply by connecting
the unit and launching the application. To confi gure
it for optimum performance with Logic Pro 7, we
recommend you make the following simple modifi ca-
tions to the default software settings.
Installation

interface via two MIDI cables (IN and OUT).
• Connect one end of the external power supply to
the Mackie Control C4, and the other end to an
AC power source between 90 V and 264 V AC
