Graphite MF8 · USB Control Surface
Preset 1 • Remote Control
The first preset of the Graphite MF8 can be used as a control surface for most audio software
titles without having to assign each parameter. Presets 2-4 can be customized to tailor the
controller to your work environment.
The first preset utilizes the Mackie Control protocol to communicate to the software by
synchronizing the Graphite MF8 controls with the controls in the software. Within the audio
software preferences, Mackie Control should be selected in the Control Surface settings. For
some software titles, the MIDI control input will need to be set to SAMSON Graphite MF8
(Controller).
