-<p>
- This will walk you through the process of configuring and using
- a MIDI control surface with Ardour that uses the <dfn>Mackie Control
- protocol</dfn> (MCP) or <dfn>Logic Control protocol</dfn>. Devices that
- have been tested and are known to work include the SSL Nucleus, Mackie
- Control Pro (plus extenders), Behringer devices in Mackie/Logic mode,
- and Steinberg CMC devices.

-<h2>Enabling Mackie Control in Ardour</h2>
-
-<p>
- Navigate to <kbd class="menu">Edit > Preferences > Control Surfaces</kbd>.
- Double-click on <kbd class="menu">Mackie Control</kbd> to see the setup dialog:
-</p>
-
-<img src="/images/missing.png" alt="Mackie Control Setup Dialog" />
-
-<p>
- From the selector at the top, choose the type of device you are using.
- (<a
- href="/using-control-surfaces/devices-using-mackielogic-control-protocol/devices-not-listed/">
- What to do if your device is not listed</a>).
-</p>
-
-<p>
- Once your setup is complete, click "OK" to close the dialog. Now click
- on the enable checkbox for "Mackie Control".
-</p>
-
-<h2>Connecting control surface and Ardour MIDI ports</h2>
-
-<p>
- If you are using a device that uses ipMIDI, such as the SSL Nucleus, no
- MIDI port connections are required—Ardour and your control
- surface will be able to talk to each other automatically.
-</p>
-
-<p>
- If you are using a device that uses normal MIDI (via a standard MIDI or
- USB cable), you need to connect Ardour's Mackie Control in and out ports
- to the MIDI ports leading to and coming from the control surface.
-</p>
-
-<p>
- When you have made these connections once, Ardour will recreate them
- for you in the future, as long as you leave Mackie Control enabled.
-</p>
-
-<h2>Customizing your control surface</h2>
-
-<p>
- Every possible Mackie Control button can be bound to any action present
- in Ardour's GUI. Please check your control surface page for suggestions.
-</p>
-
-<h2>Preparing your device for use with Ardour</h2>
-
-<p>
- Most interfaces will require some configuration to send and respond to
- MCP.
-</p>
-
-<p class="note">
- When setting up the control surface, do <em>not</em> use "Pro Tools"
- mode. Pro Tools is the only DAW that still requires HUI. The rest of
- world uses Mackie Control Protocol. Ardour does not support HUI.
