By configuring ACT to respond to the controller data your MCU is sending out. Or using P5's midi learn function. Or even better - a combination of the two. A template is someone else taking the time to do this.

what do u mean create your own? I know in sonar I have edited some of the MCU settings like the Dyn, and EQ buttons.

I wouldn't say they half-assed the control surface features, but they sure did half-ass the control surface presets. You just have to take the time to create your own. I don't have a Mackie MCU, but there is a growing list of popular gear that lack available presets. Maybe Cakewalk's not the only one to blame. M-Audio's website has templates for software I'd never want to use. Manufacturers share some of the blame.

Yeah but its not as expandable as bomes midi translator. They really half assed the control surface features on Project5. Like another thing I dont like is sometimes I dont need all the outs to appear on my Mackie MCu, its confusing and its clutter up my channels.

Loop on/off is in ACT. You could just map a button to it that way

okay I found out a way to map keystrokes to your midi surface controller. I was watching youtube and a guy suggested getting Bomes midi translator where they are infinite possibilities to mapping keystrokes. SO far, I mapped the loop on/off keystroke in Project5 to my loop on/off button on my mackie MCU and it works perfect. I will be doing lots more...hehehehhe. the demos good I will buy this joint manana!!

Okay I have a complaint about P5 with mackie MCU and C4. how come you cannot set the loop buttons to a midi function. Also, howcome you cannot have more than one template, I think this is stupid when I know you can do this with ableton live. So, I have one ? to ask will they be upgrading their midi features anytime soon?
