 Mackie Control

 

Fader Bank Zone

This Mackie Control zone contains two sets of left and right buttons—for switching 
between individual or grouped channels—as well as the FLIP and GLOBAL VIEW 
buttons.

The Mackie Control provides 8 sets of channel strip controls—allowing you to edit 
eight corresponding channels. The Bank Left and Right buttons enable you to move/
switch between “banks” of eight channel strips. As an example, if you are editing 
channel strips 1–8, pressing the Bank Right button moves to channel strips 9–16. 
Pressing Bank Right again moves to channel strips 17–24. Pressing Bank Left returns to 
channel strips 9-16, then 1–8 with a further button press.

If you are using a control surface group, the Bank Left and Right buttons shift the active 
channel strips by the total number of channels in the control surface group. As an 
example; if you have a Mackie Control and two Mackie Control XT units, the view shifts 
by 24 channels—the total number of channels in the control surface group.

Use of the Bank buttons always changes channel strips in groups of eight, unless the 
last-most channel strips do not make a complete group of eight. To provide an 
example; if a project has 19 channel strips, and the Mackie Control is controlling 
channel strips 1 to 8:

 Pressing the Bank Right button shifts to channel strips 9 to 16.
 Pressing the Bank Right button again shifts to channel strips 12 to 19
 Pressing the Bank Left button shifts back to channel strips 9 to 16, not 4 to 11.

This way, you always revert to the channel strips you expect to find, and are 
comfortable with.

Using the Channel Left and Right buttons, you can move up or down by a single 
channel strip. Pressing the Channel Right button shifts (the active channel strips) up by 
a single channel strip, while pressing Channel Left shifts down by a single channel strip. 
As an example:  if viewing channel strips 1 to 8, pressing Channel Right will display 
channel strips 2 to 9.

When holding down the OPTION button, pressing the BANK or CHANNEL Left button 
jumps to the first set of channel strips in the project. Pressing the BANK or CHANNEL 
Right button jumps to the last set of channel strips in the project. To provide you with 
an example; if your project has 64 channel strips, pressing BANK or CHANNEL left 
jumps to channel strips 1 through 8, and pressing BANK or CHANNEL Right jumps to 
channel strips 57 through 64.
