Thank you for choosing Mackie for your Digital
Audio Workstation (DAW) control solution. Mackie
Control Universal Pro (MCU Pro) and Mackie Control Extender Pro (MCE Pro) provide the familiar
feel of analog-style mixing to your DAW environment. But they also deliver the most complete
feature set and software compatibility of any control
surface available today, including USB connectivity.
The labels for the buttons and controls are specific to Apple Logic Pro. Custom lexan overlays are
available for other supported DAWs. Some of these
are included with your MCU Pro and others you
can order from our website (see the list below for
supported DAWs and overlays as of this printing).
These overlays fit over the right-hand side of
the control surface and correctly label the buttons
for the functionality supported by the DAW you are
using. Visit our website (www.mackie.com) to see a
list of all the currently supported DAWs, and to order an overlay for your particular DAW application.
Your Mackie Control Universal Pro includes a
DVD-ROM that contains Tracktion, our easy-touse Music Production Software for PC or Mac, the
perfect companion software for your new Mackie
Control Universal Pro. Check our website (www.
mackie.com) periodically for Tracktion updates as
they become available.

Changing Modes
Mackie Control Universal Pro has three different modes of operation:
1. Mackie Control (use with Mackie Tracktion,
Ableton Live, Cakewalk SONAR, Magix Samplitude and Sequoia, MOTU Digital Performer,
Propellerhead Reason, RML Labs Saw Studio,
Steinberg Nuendo and Cubase SX, and Adobe
Audition [previously Syntrillium Cool Edit Pro]).
2. Logic Control (use with Apple Logic [previously Emagic Logic]).
3. HUI (use with Digidesign Pro Tools, including
TDM, LE, and M Powered versions).
When you first turn on Mackie Control Universal Pro, the display prompts you to select a mode
of operation:
• Press Ch. 1 V-Pot to select Mackie Control.
• Press Ch. 4 V-Pot to select HUI.
• Press Ch. 8 V-Pot to select Logic Control.
Once you’ve made your selection, Mackie Control Universal Pro will automatically boot into your
selected mode each time you turn it on.
To change the mode of operation:
1. Turn off the Mackie Control.
Quick-Start Guide
Introduction
2. Hold down both the Ch. 1 and Ch. 2 SELECT
buttons while turning on the Mackie Control.
3. The display once again prompts you to select a
mode of operation.
Installation
There are two methods for connecting your
Mackie Control Universal Pro (MCU Pro) to your
computer: USB and MIDI.
Note: The USB method is the preferred method
because you have all the MIDI ports on the MCU
Pro available. If you use MIDI cables to connect the
MCU Pro to your computer (or to an external MIDI
interface), the other two MIDI ports (3 and 4) on
the MCU Pro are inactive.
Connecting with USB
• Connect the Mackie Control Universal Pro to
your computer with a USB cable (see “Hookup 1: USB” on page 4). The USB connection
works with both Macintosh and PC platforms
and is “plug and play” (no driver installation
required!).
Connecting with MIDI
• Connect the Mackie Control Universal Pro to
your USB MIDI interface via two MIDI cables
(IN and OUT). Use the MIDI 2 (MAIN) MIDI
connections on the MCU Pro.
• Connect your MIDI interface to your computer
with a USB cable (see “Hookup 2: MIDI” on
page 4).
For both methods:
• Connect one end of the external power supply
to the MCU Pro, and the other end to an AC
power source between 90 VAC and 264 VAC
(50–60 Hz).
• Turn on the MCU Pro POWER switch.
• Launch your software program of choice.
• Select your software’s console or surface manager set up window.
Quick-Start Guide
Mackie Control Universal Pro
• Select the Mackie Control in the MIDI device
setup section of your DAW application.
• Once the Mackie Control is selected within
your software’s setup preferences, the unit(s)
will be recognized automatically.
• Mackie Control Universal Pro/Mackie Control
Extender Pro units can function as a single
large console — a “Control Surface Group.”
• Go to the MCU Support section on our website
(www.mackie.com/products/mcu/mcu_support)
for details on using the MCU Pro with your
particular application.
To connect one or more Mackie Control Extender Pros:
1. If you are using the USB method to connect the
MCU Pro to your computer, then the MCU Pro
has three sets of MIDI IN/OUT connectors for
connecting additional MCE Pro units. Always
connect MIDI OUT from one unit to MIDI IN
on the next unit (and MIDI IN to MIDI OUT).
2. If you are using the MIDI method to connect
the MCU Pro to your computer, then you need
to connect the MCE Pro to the external USB
MIDI interface (the MIDI 3 and MIDI 4 con-
nectors on the MCU Pro are not functional
using this method). Connect the MIDI OUT
from the MCE Pro to the MIDI IN on the MIDI
interface (and MIDI IN to MIDI OUT).
VESA/Omnimount Mounting
The Mackie Control Universal Pro and Mackie
Control Extender Pro have holes in the bottom
panel for mounting to a standard VESA wall
mount or floating arm mount, using 75 mm or 100
mm mounting patterns. These holes accept M4
(4 mm) screws. The length of the screw will vary
depending on the thickness of the mounting plate.
The screw length is calculated by determining
the thickness of the mounting plate and adding
0.25 inches to that for the threads to engage the
pemnut in the bottom of the MCU Pro (see figure
below).
The MCU Pro weighs 11.8 pounds (5.4 kg) and
the MCE Pro weighs 6.9 pounds (3.1 kg), so be
sure to select a mounting arm or plate that can
support the weight of the unit.
Many VESA mounts are designed
for video monitors, and the
mounting plate is perpindicular
to your desktop surface. Since
you most likely do not want the
MCU Pro to be mounted perpindicular to your desktop, make sure your VESA
mount is flexible enough so if it can be properly
adjusted for your working space.

17. USB Port
This is the USB connection between the MCU Pro
and the host computer. Use the USB cable provided
to connect this port to a USB port on your computer.
Note: When the MCU Pro is connected to your computer with
the USB connection, it appears
as a 4x4 MIDI device to your
computer and your DAW application. The MCU Pro control
surface appears as Port 1 in the DAW application. Ports 2-4 correspond to the MIDI Port 2-4
connections on the MCU Pro.
These are standard 5-pin MIDI input and output connectors. Connect this to the MIDI IN/OUT
ports on your MIDI-equipped device (MIDI IN to
MIDI OUT and vice-versa). This appears as MIDI
Port 2 in your DAW application.
19. PORT 3
These are standard 5-pin MIDI input and output connectors. Connect this to the MIDI IN/OUT
ports on your MIDI-equipped device (MIDI IN to
MIDI OUT and vice-versa). This appears as MIDI
Port 3 in your DAW application.
20. PORT 4
These are standard 5-pin MIDI input and output connectors. Connect this to the MIDI IN/OUT
ports on your MIDI-equipped device (MIDI IN to

PORT 3
OUT
IN
This is where you connect the supplied external
AC power supply to provide power to the MCU Pro.
The AC power supply provided with your MCU
Pro is a universal power supply, so it can be connected to an AC power source between 90 VAC and
264 VAC (50–60 Hz).
24. Power Switch
This turns the power to the MCU Pro on and off.
25. Kensington Lock
To help prevent theft, the MCU Pro and MCE

Mackie Control Universal Pro
Service
If you think your Mackie Control Universal Pro
or Mackie Control Extender Pro has a problem,
please do everything you can to confirm it before
calling for service. Visit the Support section of our
website (www.mackie.com/support) where you
will find lots of useful information such as FAQs,
documentation, and user forums. You may find the
answer to the problem without having to send your
Mackie Control away.
If the problem is related to setting up and using
Mackie Control with your DAW software, contact
your software manufacturer’s technical support.
If you are absolutely, positively sure it is a hardware related problem, then go to the repair section
next for further instructions.
Repair
Service for Mackie products purchased in the
USA is available at a factory-authorized service
center. Service for Mackie products living outside
the United States can be obtained through local
dealers or distributors.
If your Mackie Control Universal Pro or Mackie
Control Extender Pro needs service, and it lives in
the United States, follow these instructions:
1. Call Tech Support at 1-800-898-3211, 7 am to
5 pm PST, to explain the problem and obtain
a Service Request Number. Have your Mackie
Control Universal Pro or Mackie Control Extender Pro serial number ready. You must have
a Service Request Number before you can obtain
service at the factory.
2. Keep this quick-start guide. We don’t need it
to repair the controller.
3. Pack the controller in its original package,
including endcaps and box. This is very important. When you call for the Service Request
Number, please let Tech Support know if you
need new packaging. Mackie is not responsible
for any damage that occurs due to non-factory
packaging.
4. Include a legible note stating your name, shipping address (no P.O. boxes), daytime phone
number, Service Request Number, and a detailed description of the problem, including
how we can duplicate it.
5. Write the Service Request Number in BIG
PRINT on top of the box. Units sent without
the Service Request Number will be refused.
6. Tech Support will tell you where to ship the
controller for repair. We suggest insurance for
all forms of cartage.
7. You will need to contact the authorized service
center for their latest turn-around times when
you call for your Service Request Number. The
controller must be packaged in its original
packing box, and must have the Service Request Number on the box. Once it’s repaired,
the authorized service center will ship it back
prepaid (if it was a warranty repair).
Note: Under the terms of the warranty, you must
ship or drop-off the unit to an authorized service
center. The return ground shipment is covered for
those units deemed by us to be under warranty.
Note: You must have a sales receipt from an Authorized Mackie Dealer to qualify for a warranty repair.
Please read the warranty information on page 11,
then either register online at www.mackie.com or
complete and return the Product Registration card
included with your Mackie Control Universal Pro
or Mackie Control Extender Pro.
