Blackwire Designs has delivered its Yamaha MTX Universal Driver with mixer interface for Control4 systems, a driver that not only controls an MTX processor, but also serves as the only solution to include a customisable mixer that enables end users to control the level and mix of each input across multiple zone outputs.

“From retail stores, restaurants, bars and banquet rooms to schools, conference rooms and houses of worship, the MTX series covers a wide variety of applications thanks to its flexible processing functions,” Blackwire Designs owner Kevin Luther says.

“Installers can easily and quickly create a fully custom mixing interface that is specifically tailored to the client’s needs. In turn, any user of the system can easily mix the audio, trigger custom programming and adjust the zone and group levels without leaving the native Control4 interface.

“This driver takes the complexity out of large installations and focuses on the experience and ease of operation for the end user. As one of the only value-added distributors that designs drivers for control systems, Blackwire is eager to provide this unique solution to our many customers on a much larger scale.”

The MTX driver also includes customisable UI buttons and support for both stereo and mono inputs and zones. In Control4 Composer, system designers can customize buttons with colours and graphics for easy identification, with custom sliders to quickly set input levels and mute statuses.

The driver works with current Control4 OS versions 3.1.3 and up as well as Control4 T4 touch screens, iPad and Android interfaces.
