ONE Control vs Logic Remote
One of the questions we get most often is: Why do I need ONE Control if I can get Logic Remote (for free)?
Logic Remote is a great product, but it’s focused on semi-professional use. The wonderful playing controls (such as strings, drums, etc.) make it the perfect tool for composing and sketching ideas.
Used as a DAW Controller, ONE Control is a faithful replica of the Mackie Control consoles. The Mackie Control protocol offers pro features, partially available or not available at all in Logic Remote, such as:
Advanced management of markers
Complete management of groups
Advanced automation management
Similar, if not identical, transport capabilities to those offered by audio consoles
All functions are presented in one screen
For those who have used these hardware units in the past, you’ll feel right at home. The layout, as far as possible, is faithfully respected, as are the commands themselves.
For those new to Mackie Control, ONE Control provides contextual help for the main functions. For a complete description of the features, see the Apple Logic Pro Control Surfaces guide in the Mackie Control chapter.
