Mackie MixerConnect for iPhone

Product snapshot

MixerConnect is a free iOS app from Loud Technologies Inc. that gives wireless Bluetooth control of Mackie ProDX4 and ProDX8 digital mixers. It lets performers and engineers make real-time mix changes from a mic stand, podium, or pocket — adjusting levels, EQ, effects and more without being tethered to the console.

Key capabilities

• Intuitive multi-touch fader and control gestures for fast, precise adjustments.
• Visual feedback (Grow & Glow-style indicators) that highlights the control being changed.
• Mixer-level operations such as channel level, mute toggles, and full input/output metering.
• Per-channel settings including a 3-band EQ, low-cut filter, compression, and FX send level.
• System-wide controls, for example three memory recall slots and headphone/phones level.
• Graphic EQ management for both main and auxiliary mixes.

Interface breakdown

• Graphic EQ controls for main and aux mixes.
• System settings like memory recalls and phones volume.
• Channel panel for EQ bands, low-cut, compression and sends.
• Mixer overview with level and mute controls plus metering.
• Visual cues that show which control is being edited.
• Multi-touch operation for pinch, slide and tap adjustments.

Compatibility and requirements

• Requires a Mackie ProDX Series mixer (ProDX4 or ProDX8) to access all features.
• Compatible with iPhone devices running iOS 8.0 or later.
• Uses Bluetooth for the wireless connection between the app and the mixer.

Alternate app suggestion

If you’re looking for a simple music player instead of a remote mixer controller, try eSound — MP3 Music Player (Free). It’s a commonly recommended option for playback and library management on iOS devices.

Who benefits most

• Live performers who need quick, onstage control of their monitor or front-of-house mix.
• Small venues and houses of worship using ProDX mixers that want remote access to mix changes.
• Engineers who want to make tweaks from different listening positions without running cables.

Summary

MixerConnect offers a portable, feature-rich way to manage Mackie ProDX mixers via Bluetooth. With layered controls for mixer, channel, and system functions plus clear visual feedback and multi-touch operation, it’s a handy utility for musicians and audio pros who need flexibility and convenience when refining a mix.
