The EuCon protocol
EuCon is a high-speed control protocol developed by Euphonix that enables simultaneous control of multiple applications over an Ethernet cable at 250 times the speed and eight times the resolution of MIDI. EuCon automatically detects whatever application is in the foreground and instantly sets all controller displays, motorized faders and arsenal of controls to match.This means you can switch instantly between multiple supported Mac media applications. For example, you can switch from DP6 to Final Cut Pro and then back to DP6, and your Artist Series controllers will switch on the fly with you.
