what audio control sufaces work within fcp for Audio
Hi
I’ve ordered a Mackie MCU desk but there is none available till march so I’m told.
I need something quite urgently.
Is there any desks that can work within FCP and controlling audio?
Does the Digidesign command 8 work? Know its a long shot!
Thanks
Paul

None have been certified, however this one: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=288325&is=REG&addedTroughType=categoryNavigation is the one I keep hearing about working OK…

I have a Tascam FW-1082 and am quite happy with it as a control surface for both FCP5 and Soundtrck Pro.

I have a Berhringer BCF2000. It is works well with FCP and is cheap ($200) but very annoying in that every time you get to a track with no audio the faders slam against the bottom of their track.

No, the Command 8 control surface will not work with FCP directly. It’s needs to see Pro Tools hardware.
The M-Audio/Digidesign ProjectMix I/O recognizes the Mackie Protocol, so does work with FCP 5. The ProjectMix I/O also runs with Pro Tools M-Powered (sold separately), so if needed, you can work with either.
