Euphonix's MC Intelligent Application Controller

Post, Nov, 2004

PALO ALTO, CA -- Euphonix (www.euphonix.com) was at AES with its MC Intelligent Application Controller, a workstation control surface featuring a full-sized keyboard with dual trackballs, 56 LCD SmartSwitches, four faders, nine rotary controls and a monitoring section. It will be available in March 2005.

The MC connects to a host workstation computer, running an MC driver, via Ethernet. The workstation essentially sees the MC as a normal keyboard and trackball. The unit's LCD display SmartSwitches can be programmed to send complex macros and simple keystroke commands.

Euphonix's EuCon protocol has been adapted to allow the MC and the company's System 5 console range to have high-speed network access to any function in a EuCon software application.

The MC includes Euphonix's Studio Monitor Pro, which provides professional surround sound monitoring control for the MC's surface.
