Noisy and a jumpy compared to higher-end controllers. Manufacturer support wasn't great but Thomann as usual were outstanding and I got a new one within a week or two of my return.
The initial product I received was faulty and returned.
I bought this a while back for mixing at home as I didn't want to move smaller sessions into the studio. I have adapted so quickly to using the device for mix navigation that I will certainly buy the D2 display panel, and will seriously consider expanding this device to have more physical faders. And, in Logic I have swapped the 'mixer' and 'write' buttons as I didn't want to lose 'latch' (which is what the 'mixer' button actually defaults to. Two small things: the lights under the buttons are very bright. Having all the mute/solo/record buttons right there is great. The built quality is great, and mine has no wobble. The jog wheel is, again, more useful that I would even have believed. Having the transport controls right there is great. Having the pan pots right there is great, and their 'return to 0 centre' feature when pressed is more useful that I could have imagined. Being able to easily adjust multiple track levels with just my fingertips is fantastic. It is excellent.īeing able to mix tracks and jump back and forth along the row of tracks while having the faders follow and match the DAW faders is so awesome! Them being touch sensitive is a major part of that. Never having used motorised faders before, but realising I wanted them (based on using a Korg nanControl - which is an excellent piece of kit) I bought this. This device does what I wanted and has a lot of extra features I did not expect. occasional fader chattering noise when idle. + Easy setup with DAW and easy fader calibration process I tried to make sure the device was level, but the noise persisted on and off. This was on tracks that sis not have automation, so there really was no reason for this to happen!Īlso, sometimes when the faders were turned all the way down, there would be some fader chattering going on. I really liked the unit, the rubber feel of the buttons and the fader action was ok, but not as good as the Presonous Faderport in my view.Īlso, despite calibrating the fader speed and sensitivity I still had to fight with the fader sometimes when adjusting levels. I did not want to control plugin or EQs with this soI did not test how that works with the knobs. The setup with either program was simple and worked nicely.
I bought this for using with Cubase and Logic ProX as a volume controller for balancing tracks and writing some automation.
