Logitech's MX Creative console now supports even more essential editing apps

Image: Logitech Logitech has announced new plugins for its MX Creative Console accessory, which acts as a control panel for various photo and video editing apps. It now supports Adobe Lightroom, Affinity Photo, Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve, as well as Figma, letting you trigger actions with its multi-function button and control edits using its dial and scroll wheel. While you could use the console with these apps before, it was in a more limited fashion: you'd have to map keyboard shortcuts to the buttons rather than using pre-made actions that communicate directly with the app. And while a plugin for Lightroom Classic has been available since the Creative Console's launch, this is the first time an official one has been available for the newer version of the app. Image: Logitech The built-in actions let you do a variety of things based on which app you're working in. For example, when working in Lightroom, you can use the console to rate photos, filter photos by star rating or flags, open the color mixer and more. You can use the dial to change a variety of parameters and to crop and rotate your image. Meanwhile, in Final Cut Pro, you can use the console to trim your clips, zoom in and out on your timeline and access color correction tools. You can configure the wheel to scrub through your timeline by a single frame at a time or by several frames at once. You can set up several pages of actions and scroll through them; the screens under the buttons will update depending on which page you're on and which app you're using. You currently can't create folders of actions, but the company says it's working on that ability and to expect support for more applications in the coming months. The update that supports the new plugins and the plugins themselves are free if you already own an MX Creative Console. The accessory itself is $199 and comes in white or black.
