USA - Mackie Designs Inc and Emagic Software and Hardware GmbH have announced an agreement to merge their audio control surface technologies. Under the terms of the agreement, future Mackie engineered control surfaces will include both Logic Control and Mackie Control, as well as Mackie's HUI protocol.

"Logic users represent one of the largest, most affluent creative communities in audio recording," commented Chris Adam, managing director of Emagic GmbH. "By merging the Mackie and Emagic control surface technologies, we will be providing current and future Emagic customers with one of the most versatile and powerful control surface platforms in the world."

Beginning next month, Mackie and Emagic will also release an upgrade that will allow both Mackie Control and Logic Control owners to take full advantage of the combined functionality. "The Mackie Control/Logic Control platform has become one of the most widely used dedicated control surface platforms to date, with nearly 8,000 combined users worldwide," commented Jamie Engen, president and CEO at Mackie Designs Inc. "This sharing of technology means that users on both sides will benefit from a universal platform which supports all major DAWs."
