Controller Options for MuséikUpdated 2 hours ago

If you are running Muséik on a laptop you have several options for how to control the software.

 

IMPORTANT: A USB mouse plugged into your computer is the recommended controller. Always have a USB mouse available, even if you plan to control the software wirelessly with an iPad. 

1. The laptop trackpadpad is functional as a controller, but not recommended. It is simply too clumsy to be precise and requires two hands at all times. Avoid the trackpadpad whenever possible.

2. A USB mouse plugged into your computer is a very suitable way to control the software. It is also the most stable and dependable option. Beware of wireless mice; battery failure during your show is completely preventable by using a mouse that is powered directly from your computer through a wire. 

3. Muséik Remote 2.0 is available as a free download. It allows you to control the software using an iPad or other device. On the Ion Concert Media website go to ICM Technologies, then to the TOOLS page to download the program. See articles in this Help Center for information on how to set up an iPad controller.

4. Muséik 3.2 is fully MIDI compatible. You can easily set up any MIDI device to operate the program. See articles in this Help Center for information on how to set up MIDI connections.

 

NOTE: The wireless connection between the computer and tablet is stable and reliable much of the time, but like any wireless connection it can go down. We recommend having a USB mouse plugged in to the computer at all times to act as a back-up control system in case the connection between your computer and wireless device fails.
