Euphonix Media Application Controller Operation Manual

Configuration

2.3.1

Windows

Installing MC Client is discussed in the Installation Guides. Once installed in Win-

dows, MC Client does not need further configuration for applications. It automatically

detects if an application is EuCon-aware and enables EuCon communication. If not, it

enables the MC's keyboard, trackball, and Soft Keys to control your application as if the

MC were a peripheral directly plugged into your workstation. Since MC Client runs at

the operating system level, it can control all non-EuCon-aware applications just as your

regular keyboard/mouse combo can (with the useful addition of Soft Key macros).

OSX

Since HUI and Mackie Control Universal use MIDI to communicate, they require allo-

cation of MIDI ports by OSX. The OSX EuCon software creates a virtual MIDI driver

with 32 ports, but actual communication with the MC occurs via the faster and more

reliable Ethernet network. HUI and Mackie Control use four MIDI ports per applica-

tion. Ports are allocated in the Euphonix Preferences Pane (Apple Menu->System

Preferences/EuPrefsPane). Figure 2-2 shows a possible application.
