TranzPort and Mackie’s Tracktion

Users of Mackie’s Tracktion 2 software recently got a special treat in the latest 2.1 update. Mackie has chosen TranzPort, the world’s first wireless DAW controller, to be the first non-Mackie designed control surface to be compatible with Tracktion 2.1. TranzPort opens up a new level of creativity by allowing you to focus on your music and not how you are going to press the Record button in the next room.

“Native Mode” support of TranzPort is a breeze to set up in Tracktion 2.1. Simply enable the TranzPort for MIDI Input and Output on the MIDI tab of the Tracktion Settings panel. Next, select the Control Surfaces tab and highlight “Frontier Design Group TranzPort” At the bottom of the page set the Input and Output device to itself. That’s it, you are ready to go. The TranzPort’s LCD display should reflect the currently selected track and other project information.

Tracktion 2.1 and TranzPort (PDF) contains detailed instructions for configuring the TranzPort for use with Tracktion 2.1. Information on how to use some of TranzPorts’ less-obvious features and a reference chart listing the default controls for Tracktion 2.1 are found in this useful document as well.

Tracktion Layout (PDF) is a single page picture of the TranzPort with overlaid text summarizing the Tracktion 2.1 feature set. It may be helpful to print this file and have it handy as a quick reference guide.

The TranzPort User’s Guide (PDF) has full details on installing TranzPort on your PC.
