Product Description
Experience a new level of control with Artist Transport, a compact media controller that enables you to quickly navigate and edit projects with just one hand. Get the features and tactile feel of a high-end console transport section in a more affordable, portable solution that's ideal for laptop use and the perfect add-on to Artist Mix and Artist Color.From the weighted data wheel and spring-loaded shuttle ring to the ergonomic transport controls and numeric keypad, Artist Transport puts ultra-precise control right at your fingertips. You can even use the Soft Keys to reassign data wheel functions on the fly, making it easy to switch from navigation and editing to writing automation or tweaking plug-ins.
Artist Transport features EUCON (Extended User Control), a high-speed open control protocol that has been adopted by many of the world's leading software developers. Pro Tools, Media Composer, Apple Logic, Apple Final Cut Pro, Autodesk Smoke for Mac, Steinberg Cubase, and many other applications support EUCON, giving you highly responsive control over almost all software functions. You gain a tightly connected experience in which the control surface acts and feels like a physical extension of your software.
The Artist Control, Artist Mix, and Artist Transport comprise the Artist Series family of media controllers. They use a 100 Mbs Ethernet EUCON™ connection to control audio and video applications running on a work
station computer. EUCON is a high-speed communication protocol and enables control of virtually every application feature.
Each Artist Series media controller can run as a standalone device. Up to four Artist Mixes can be used with an optional Artist Control and/or Artist Transport to create a larger control surface. Artist Series media controllers borrow many features from the MC Pro and System 5-MC.
The Artist Transport supports two types of applications: • EUCON-aware applications (such as Pro Tools™ 9 and higher, Media Composer™, Cubase, Nuendo, and Final Cut Pro) are written to directly support the EUCON protocol. They provide the highest level of integration, high-resolution controls, and high-speed connectivity.
• Non-EUCON-aware applications that support Mackie Control or HUI (such as Live, Reason, and Pro Tools
8.x and lower) can control many functions but are less integrated than EUCON-aware applications.
The Artist Transport can provide some functionality over non-EUCON-aware applications that do not support HUI or Mackie Control by sending out keystroke commands over EUCON.
EuControl Software
The EuControl software application is responsible for finding, linking, and communicating with all Artist Series media controllers on the network. EuControl must be installed on the computer that runs the applications you want to control before using Artist Series controllers.
