The HUI MIDI mapping protocol is a proprietary communications protocol for interfacing between a hardware audio control surface and digital audio workstation (DAW) software. It was first created by Mackie and Digidesign in 1997.
Functionality
HUI protocol allows a digital audio workstation (DAW) and a connected hardware control surface to exchange MIDI signals that synchronize the states of their sliders, buttons, wheels, and displays. The user can write console automation which can then be seen in the DAW.[1]
History
The HUI protocol was created jointly by Mackie and Digidesign in 1997 for Mackie's Human User Interface (HUI), the first hardware control surface for Digidesign’s Pro Tools. It is now implemented by hardware controllers from manufacturers such as Solid State Logic, Yamaha, TASCAM, and Novation. By the time Mackie introduced the Baby HUI in August 2002, the protocol was also supported by DAWs including MOTU Digital Performer and Steinberg Nuendo, making them cross-compatible with HUI-compatible hardware controllers.[2]
Mackie Control Universal (MCU)
In 2003, the Mackie Control Universal (MCU) protocol was introduced, combining together functionality from Mackie Control, Logic Control and HUI into a single protocol.[3]
