In addition to the above controls, the Bitstream 3X emulates the different SYSEXs received and transmitted
by the Mackie/Logic Control to perform connection with the Host computer.
From the firmware version 1.6 and higher, the Mackie control communication is done on MIDI Out 1 and
USB Out 1, while all other controls of the Bitstream 3X are generating standard Ccs on MIDI Out 2 and USB
Out 2.

To Enter into the Mackie control emulation operating mode, simply press the Bitstream 3X “mode” button
until the LCD displays “Mackie Control”.
To Enter into the Logic control emulation operating mode, simply press the Bitstream 3X “mode” button until
