+  All Mackie Control devices are based on the original Logic Control and the
+  documentation in the user manual that came with it. The Mackie Control and
+  the Mackie Control Pro and so on, all use this same protocol. Any units
+  from other manufactures will also use the same encoding as best the
+  hardware will allow. If the unit in use has more than one Mackie Control
+  option, it is best to choose Logic Control or LC. Any Templates for the
+  buttons should be chosen the same way as the Function key Editor uses these
+  button names. The "Mackie Control" option should be considered default and
+  should be tried with any unlisted device before attemping to create a
+  custom definition file.

+  Extenders will require a custom file as there are no combinations listed
+  at this time. The best way is to start with the mc.device file and copy it
+  to a new name such as xt+mc.device and then edit that file. It is best to
+  name the file with the order the devices are expected to be used in as
+  the position of the master device is specified in this file.
+</p>
+<p>
+  The two lines of interest are:
+<p>
+<pre>
+ &gt;Extenders value="0"/&gt;
+ &gt;MasterPosition value="0"/&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>
+  Add these two lines if they are not present. The <code>Extenders</code>
+  value is the number of extenders used and should not include the master in
+  that number. That is, it should be the total number of units minus 1. The
+  <code>MasterPosition</code> value is the position from left to right where
+  the master unit (with the master fader) is, starting at 0. So if there are
+  three surfaces, <code>MasterPosition</code> with value 0 would be master
+  on the left, <code>MasterPosition</code> with value 1 would be master in
+  the middle and <code>MasterPosition</code> with value 2 would be master on
+  the right.
+</p>
+<p>
+  If the <code>MasterPosition</code> value does not properly match the
+  physcal position and MIDI port, the master fader and global controls will
+  not work. The master unit will act like an extender.
