Description
The FaderPort features a 100mm motorised touch cursor for real-time writing and automation and 24 buttons covering 40 different functions, all in a compact chassis that fits easily on any desk. Quickly zoom in on audio files to edit them. Control track levels at the touch of a finger. With FaderPort, you’ll enjoy the fastest, most efficient workflow you’ve ever experienced.
One-button access to key functions.
FaderPort’s single session browser provides easy access to eight critical functions for maximum flexibility. Use the large encoder knob and accompanying buttons to edit and mix more efficiently and quickly. Scroll your timeline, using the encoder, or work bar by bar with the arrow buttons; zoom in and out on the timeline with the encoder and make your tracks bigger or smaller with the arrow buttons; navigate and drop markers; and maintain constant control over your main level. Once you start using the session browser, you’ll wonder how you ever got mixed up without it.
Universal compatibility and tight integration with Studio One.
FaderPort’s streamlined workflow and support for Mackie Control and HUI protocols make controlling Logic Pro X, Cubase, Ableton Live, Pro Tools and much more quick and easy. No driver installation is required; simply plug the control surface into a USB port and take control of your mix. But the FaderPort is simply magical when used with PreSonus Studio One. (Studio One Artist is included.) You’ll be amazed at how much faster you can work.
