What is a
A Lexan overlay is a thin sheet of polycarbonate that has DAW-specific nomenclature on the front side and an adhesive on the back. It is designed to be placed over the master section of the Mackie Control and associate the buttons and controls with specific software commands. Because the Mackie Control is supported by a number of different DAW applications, each DAW manufacturer has been given the opportunity to design and implement their own overlay. Using the overlay that corresponds with your DAW software will give you a personalized, mission-specific controller with all the commands for your particular platform at your fingertips. You can call Mackie Customer Service at +1 425-487-4333 or toll free 1-800-258-6883 (in the US and Canada) and request the lexan overlay specific to your preferred DAW, and Mackie will gladly ship it directly to you – free of charge.
