Support for Mackie Control C4 Coming to SONAR 4
October 28, 2004
Cakewalk today announces that its SONAR 4 Producer Edition and Studio Edition will support the new Mackie Control C4
plug-in and instrument controller. The Mackie Control C4 which is
designed for the needs of today's workstation-based musicians and
producers, provides four banks of eight V-Pots each, and four full-size
displays that provide instant access to as many as 32 software
parameters.
The Mackie Control C4 eliminates the need to constantly "bank switch" a
standard control surface display in order to access parameter-rich
software modules such as soft synths. It features multiple displays and
corresponding knobs for simultaneous access of up to 32 parameters of a
given software module. Function buttons beneath the displays and knobs
allow users to select the arrangement of those parameters and how they
show up on screen. The Mackie Control C4 also acts as a "quick fix" tool
for fader and pan settings across 32 channels, and can be used
independently or in concert with Mackie Control Universal.
Availability
Cakewalk plans to have the Mackie Control C4 plug-in module available on
the Cakewalk and Mackie web sites for download within 90 days.
Registered SONAR 4.0 owners will be able to download it off the web site
at no charge. For more information, visit their web site at www.cakewalk.com. |
