Expand Your MCU Pro with More Faders

The Mackie XT Pro is a control surface extender that expands your Mackie MCU Pro unit with the addition of eight motorized, touch-sensitive Alps faders, plus V-Pot rotary encoders and push-buttons on every channel strip. The Mackie XT Pro module attaches seamlessly to the MCU Pro unit, integrating with all the main control surface's functions and commands without the need for any external hardware. You can expand your MCU Pro's ability to control your DAW even further with the addition of the Mackie XT Pro.

Mackie XT Pro Control Surface Extension Module at a Glance:
  • Smooth fader control
  • Multi-function knobs and buttons on each channel strip
  • Seamless integration with MCU Pro

Smooth fader control
The Mackie XT Pro features the same 100mm touch-sensitive Alps motorized faders as the MCU Pro control surface. These smooth faders give you the tactile, responsive feel of an analog console while accurately commanding your state-of-the-art DAW software.

Multi-function rotary encoders and buttons
Each of the Mackie XT Pro's eight channels features a multi-function V-Pot for fast and accurate control of panning, effects levels, and more. Also included on each channel strip are mute, solo, pan, send level, and record arm functions, as well as a full meter display.

Seamless integration with the MCU Pro
The Mackie XT Pro is literally the "right hand man" of the Mackie Control Universal Pro control surface. Once connected, it's seamlessly integrated into the system, so all parameters, automation, and other control commands are communicated in concert with the rest of the system - no external hardware required!

Mackie XT Pro Features:
  • Eight-Fader Control Surface Extension for MCU Pro
  • Proprietary Mackie communication protocol for seamless software integration by DAW makers
  • 100mm touch-sensitive optical Alps motorized faders
  • Multi-function V-Pots for fast control of panning, effects levels and more
  • Channel mute, solo, pan, send level and record arm functions
  • Full meter display with track names and parameters
Mackie XT Pro - Customize your MCU Pro to meet your needs!

Rated 4.5/5

Great product but...

I have two XT’s along with the MCUPro. They do everything I need them to, but both of the displays on the XT’s failed after 10 months. They were replaced under warranty after waiting 6 weeks for Mackie to replenish their supply. Now I notice that the display on the MCU is fading. This display issue will not prevent me from buying a third XT. I like them that much.
Rated 4.5/5

Why did I wait?

I had the MCU Pro for 2 years before I decided to add the Extender Pro. I never should have waited. It's great being able to see 16 tracks at once without having to 'layer" up or down. Makes mixing so much faster. As always great service with shipping from Sweetwater.
The only reason I give this 4 1/2 stars is that is does not come with the needed midi cables to hook it up to the MCU. Yes you must order those separately.

Got the Extender Pro so that i could have 16 channels. Worked great from day one. Using with Logic Studio.

Expect to replace displays

I have 3 XT's and an MCU Pro. 3 of the displays have failed within a year. One of which has just had a warrantee replacement fail after 8 months (this will be number 2). It gets expensive, and replacement parts are always out of stock. Had I known then what I know now...
Rated 1/5

I loved them until....

Replacing motorized faders is not uncommon. I have an MCU and 3 XTs and just found out they are basically trash since you can not long buy P&G faders. Mackie's suggestion? Buy them again. NO THANK YOU.
