Basic Operation

You can use CTRL49 in your setup in a few different ways, described here. We also recommend downloading the full User Guide to learn more and get the most use out of your CTRL49. Visit m-audio.com and find the webpage for CTRL49 to download the User Guide.

Setup Scenarios

With VIP in Your DAW

The included VIP software lets you get the most control and function out of your CTRL49. VIP is essentially a host for your plugins, a hub where you can create, edit, and manage your patches (presets) for your various plugins. When VIP is used as a plugin, as in this scenario, all audio from VIP will be sent into your DAW on its track. You can switch between CTRL49's Control Mode to control VIP or MIDI Mode to control your DAW. You can also use CTRL49's faders, fader buttons, and transport control buttons to control your DAW using Mackie Control®/HUI® (see the Modes section for more information).

Tip: You can use Control Edit Mode to assign some knobs to MIDI CC messages instead of VST parameters. This lets you control your plugin and your DAW while in Control Mode. See Modes > Control Edit Mode for more information.

Tip: As with other plugins, you can use multiple instances of VIP in your DAW, each on its own track.

With VIP in Standalone Mode (Without a DAW)

You can use VIP in Standalone Mode without a DAW. This works the same way as when used as a plugin (described above) except the audio is routed to your computer's sound card instead of to your DAW. You can use CTRL49's Control Mode to control VIP (see the Modes section for more information).

With Your DAW Only

You can use CTRL49 as a standard USB MIDI controller for your music creation software. We've created presets for several popular DAWs so you can use CTRL49 with your projects in the most logical and intuitive way possible. You can use CTRL49's MIDI Mode and the Mackie Control®/HUI® faders, fader buttons, and transport controls to control your DAW (see the Modes section for more information).

Tip: To set up Mackie Control®/HUI® communication with your DAW, first make sure CTRL49 MIDI Port 4 (Mackie/HUI) is enabled in your DAW's Preferences, Options, or Device Setup menu. Then, use MIDI Edit Mode to set the faders and fader buttons to a preset that corresponds to your DAW. You can also set the transport control buttons to match the message format that the Faders are currently set to (Mackie Control® or HUI®) in Global Mode (see the Modes section for more information).
