Mackie has announced that Mackie Control Universal Extender support has now been made available in the newly released version 2.2 of both Cubase SX/SL and Nuendo.

“Steinberg users will now be able to add more faders to their existing Mackie Control Universal setups, which gives them the ability to build a large-scale console interface to control the same great workstation they already know and love,” commented Dan Moore, Product Manager for the Mackie Control Universal. “Adding Extenders to the Mackie Control Universal provides and even greater level of immediate accessibility to parameters previously available only by using the “Bank” and “Channel” buttons with a single controller.”

The Mackie Control Universal is a nine-fader master control surface with nine touch-sensitive Penny and Giles motorized faders and extensive software integration for a growing family of DAWs that includes Emagic Logic Audio, Digidesign Pro Tools, Steinberg Nuendo and CubaseSX/SL, MOTU Digital Performer, RML Labs SAW Studio, Adobe Audition, and many others. The Mackie Control Universal Extender is a channel extension for Mackie Control Universal that offers all the channel strip features of the Mackie Control Universal – only without the master section.
