Native menu bar control for MOTU AVB mixers
M828 Mac Menubar
Quick MOTU mixer control without opening the web UI.
A native macOS menu bar controller for MOTU 828ES and other AVB mixers with HTTP-accessible control endpoints.
Why it exists
Small mixer changes should stay one click away.
Opening a full web UI is too much friction for small audio-mixer changes. This app puts selected MOTU mixer controls into the macOS menu bar so common changes are reachable immediately.
The menu is built from a configurable layout. It can scan mixer inputs, outputs and control sources, then expose selected faders, trims, mutes, monitor levels and related controls.
