Touch-sensitive rotary encoders offer direct control over everything from panning and gain to editing your most powerful plug-ins and EQ. These knobs can also be pressed to select/deselect and navigate through parameters. High-quality ALPS 100mm long throw faders offer accurate and smooth mixing; touching a fader will automatically select the corresponding track.

Controls the included Studio Monitor Express software to provide professional monitoring (from stereo up to 5.1 surround) as well as complete talkback controls via any CoreAudio compliant interface.
