FaderPort 8 USB 8-Channel Mix Production DAW Controller

The FaderPort 8 brings eight touch-sensitive, motorized 100mm faders and 57 buttons covering 78 functions to a compact chassis that fits on any desk, giving you tactile control over a mix without giving up desk space. Eight high-definition scribble strips provide visual feedback for every channel, and the surface follows your mouse selection automatically, so switching between tracks stays fast whether a hand is on a fader or a trackpad. The Session Navigator groups eight mission-critical functions, from arming all tracks to clearing solos and mutes to viewing only the buses and VCAs needed, behind large illuminated buttons that are easy to find without looking down. Four programmable user buttons let you assign your own most-used functions on top of the defaults. Automation controls for touch, latch, trim, write, and read live directly on the surface, and channel controls cover level, pan, solo, mute, and record arm. Like its larger sibling, the FaderPort 8 supports Mackie Control and HUI protocols for near-universal DAW compatibility with no drivers required, while native Studio One integration (Studio One Artist included) unlocks the fastest possible workflow for anyone mixing in that environment.
