26.7.2 MIDI Page 
The MIDI page has settings for MIDI remote control via CC commands or Mackie Control proto-
col. 
MIDI Remote Control 
¾  MIDI In. Input where TotalMix receives 
MIDI Remote data. 
¾  MIDI Out. Output where TotalMix 
sends MIDI Remote data. 
¾  Disable MIDI in background. 
Deactivates MIDI Remote Control as 
soon as another application is in the 
focus, or when TotalMix has been 
minimized. 
Mackie Control Options 
¾  Enable Protocol Support. When 
disabled TM FX will only react on the 
Control Change commands of chapter 
28.5. 
¾  Map Stereo to 2 Mono Channels. 
One fader controls one (mono) 
channel. Should be disabled when 
stereo channels are used. 
¾  Submix Selection in Input/Playback 
Row. Enables a selection of the 
submix when in first row, without 
having to change to the third row first. 
However, when using both mono and 
stereo channels first and third row 
usually do not match anymore, so the selection often becomes unclear this way. 
¾  Enable full LCD support. Activates full Mackie Control LCD support with eight channel 
names and eight volume/pan values. 
¾  Send User defined Names. Channel names defined by the user will be sent to the remote 
device via MIDI and – if supported – shown in its display. 
¾  Send Level Messages. Activates the transmission of the level meter data. Peak Hold acti-
vates the peak hold function as set up for the TotalMix level meters in the preferences. 
Note
: When MIDI Out is set to NONE then TotalMix FX can still be controlled by Mackie Control 
MIDI commands, but the 8-channel block is not marked as remote target.
