The software can be used to route any input to any output, providing powerful and flexible mixing possibilities. On-board DSP powers the v.5 MIO Console that can function as a mixer, router and control application. Wordclock in/out and dual FireWire connectors, along with 24-bit, 96kHz converters on all channels, make this the perfect tool for digital recording. The first 4 microphone/line inputs are on XLR connectors, but all 8 inputs can provide +48V phantom power for condenser microphone use. The unit is equipped with 8 microphone/balanced analog inputs, 2 channels of digital I/O (AES/EBU and S/PDIF), 8 channels of ADAT optical I/O and 8 balanced analog outputs. Housed in a single space rack-mount chassis, the unit provides 18 inputs and 20 outputs of simultaneous I/O, while having the ability to be powered entirely from the FireWire bus of a laptop computer or from an appropriate DC power source.

Since you can access these commands without having the master section, it is possible to configure a control surface by just using fader packs, which can provide a cost savings and a density improvement for certain applications.The Mobile I/O 2882 from Metric Halo is a portable, high quality FireWire based, multi-format audio converter and interface. This allows you access these functions from the keyboard of your computer, or, even better through a mappable HID like the ShuttleXpress or ShuttlePro. With MIO Console, we have made these control surface commands available as mappable key-commands as well as control surface commands. With the Mackie Hardware, only the MCU master section provides surface navigation buttons for nudging and banking as well as input, pan and send selection, so with most control surface implementations you need at least one master section to be able to access these features. If you do not wish to use your EuCon control surface with MIO Console, uncheck this box and MIO Console will disconnect from EuCon services. If you have a EuCon control surface, you must check this box in order to use it with MIO Console.

This does not apply to EuCon Control surfaces as EuCon manages application switching. Uncheck this if you will use the same control surface units in another host program too. Use Control Surface while in background - When checked, MIO Console will continue to use the Mackie Control Protocol Control Surface units, even if it is not the active application on your computer.MIO Console will place this fader pack to the left of Fader Pack 2 in terms of fader layout Fader Pack 3 - Select the MIDI ports for the Mackie Control Protocol first fader pack used in the system.MIO Console will place this fader pack to the left of Fader Pack 1 in terms of fader layout Fader Pack 2 - Select the MIDI ports for the Mackie Control Protocol first fader pack used in the system.MIO Console will place this fader pack to the left of the Primary Controller in terms of fader layout Fader Pack 1 - Select the MIDI ports for the Mackie Control Protocol first fader pack used in the system.MIO Console will treat this as the right-most controller in terms of fader layout Primary Controller - Select the MIDI ports for the primary (generally the master section) Mackie Control Protocol control surface unit.Use the controller popups to select the MIDI I/O for your control surface. Enable Control Surface Support - When checked, MIO Console will listen to Mackie Control protocol messages on the specified MIDI Ports.The relevant preferences for Control Surface support are:
