Tim, can you describe the work-around in brief? I don’t need details or 
hand-holding, but not sure what tweak is needed.

I’ve given up on Mackie Control compatible gear like the ProjectMix and 
BCF2000, and now have a real Mackie Control Universal Pro. Also dumping my 
BCR2000 for a Mackie C4. Of the other low-cost surfaces, only the ProjectMix, 
and perhaps the FW1884, are close to the MCU’s construction quality. Of course, 
the ProjectMix and FW1884 are old products with horrible Mac support now, so 
not good options, anyway.

For others on the list that might be curious about the differences, the MCU has 
more dedicated buttons for functions than any of the other units that I listed. 
The MCU Pro is also significantly more compact than they are. Finally, the jog 
wheel on the MCU Pro is beefier, has a bit of weighted inertia to it, and has 
an all-around better feel to it than the ones that I’ve used on the ProjectMix 
and FW1884. The other Mackie Control compatible units always seem to cut some 
corner or another, even if a small one, and it is nice to finally have the real 
deal.

Bryan
