Configuring the Control Room Option for the Euphonix MC Control

By Mike Grimmett on Feb 12, 2010 in Post Production, Tutorials

I ran into a neat little problem with my workflow. For months I have been mindlessly controlling the volume of my monitors via the mixer. Knowing the Euphonix MC Control is capable of controlling system levels I decided to dive in and make it work. Took some trial and error to get the voodoo but it’s working and working GREAT. I will post a video of this tutorial in the next day or two when things calm down.

  1. Launch Studio Monitor Express (SME)
  2. Config > Set SME to use your audio device (in this case the Presonus FireStudio)
  3. Patch > Set speaker outs to match the outs your device sends to your monitors
  4. Sources > Create sources that correspond to what you need to listen to (in this case Logic Pro)
  5. Main > Select which sources are available for each output
  6. While SME is still open, open up the EuControl Settings > Assign and make sure the “Lock Control Room” option is checked
  7. Launch Logic and set SME as the audio driver

BAM!!!! DONE!!! Any questions hit me up.
