4. MIDI CONTROL CENTER
4.1. The Basics
Arturia's MIDI Control Center (MCC) is a powerful application that lets you dive into your
Arturia hardware and configure the various controls (keys, pads, knobs, buttons, sliders,
etc.) so that they best serve your musical needs.
Note that this chapter only covers the MCC features that pertain to MicroLab. As a result,
much of MCC will
not be described in this guide. This is because MicroLab is an ultra-
portable product with a minimalist feature set that does not use many of MCC's powerful
features (like preset management capabilities, for example). If you would like to see detailed
explanations of
all MCC features, please refer to the MCC User Manual (see the Where to
find the manual section later in this chapter).
!: MCC works with most of Arturia’s devices, so if you already have an earlier version of it installed
on your computer, be sure to download the latest version to ensure it includes support for MicroLab.
