Control Surfaces

Logic Pro user? Nektar's new single-fader control surface will come pre-configured for all of its built-in plug-ins. 

Icon have revealed three new controllers that share many of the features introduced in their new V1 units but with a more compact footprint that will fit comfortably into smaller studio setups.

Icon's latest control surfaces offer simultaneous control of up to three DAWs and boast completely customisable layouts and plug-in control thanks to the company’s iMAP software.

The upcoming Console 1 Channel Mk III is a new and updated version of Softube's popular hardware control surface and software package.

Asparion's upcoming modular control surface range will allow users to build a system with up to 64 motorised faders. 

SSL's new single-fader controller can be used on its own, or paired with the UC1 and up to four UF8s to form a larger control surface.

THD-Labs are expanding their Tangerine Automation Interface range, with systems planned for SSL's 9000 J and K series and a new motorised fader pack in development. 

Antelope Audio launch the MRC, a multi-channel remote controller that serves as a controller for their surround sound and immersive audio monitoring system.

SSL's latest consoles aim to bridge the gap between control surfaces and large-format consoles for those mixing music in immersive formats. 

Electronic musician Bjørn Felle has released ODIN, an app that works as a fully customisable touch-screen control surface for Android devices.

The latest version of V-Control Pro enables Digidesign and Avid D-Command control surfaces to be used with Pro Tools Studio, Logic Pro, Cubase, Nuendo, Studio One, LUNA, and more.

THD Labs talk us through their automation systems, which equip older consoles with modern automation capabilities.  

The new desktop controller is specifically designed for SSL's Channel Strip and Bus Compressor plug-ins, and sports a real moving-coil gain-reduction meter.

The UF8 features eight motorised faders, touch-sensitive fader caps and hi-res screens, and provides hands-on control over a wide range of DAWs.
