Avid Artist Mix Touch-Sensitive Fader Control Surface, Educational

The Avid Artist Mix is an 8-fader control surface that offers greater speed and control than a mouse when mixing audio in any EUCON-enabled audio or video application. Get fast access to a variety of software functions right from the surface to adjust audio levels, plug-in parameters, panning, automation modes and much more-with excellent visual feedback-all in a compact footprint that fits perfectly between your keyboard and screen.

Artist Mix features EUCON (Extended User Control), a high-speed open control protocol that has been adopted by many of the world's leading software developers. Pro Tools, Media Composer, Apple Logic, Apple Final Cut Pro, Steinberg Cubase and many other applications support EUCON, giving you highly responsive control over almost all software functions. You gain high-resolution, high-speed control over almost all software functions and a tightly connected "software as hardware" experience.

Take control with EUCON
With Artist Mix, you gain deep, integrated control over your favorite EUCON-enabled creative applications, such as Pro Tools, Media Composer, Logic, Nuendo, Cubase, Maestro and more. EUCON carries high-resolution control information for faders, knobs, displays and more between Artist Control and whatever application is in focus on your computer. This enables you to quickly switch between multiple applications-and even workstations-at the touch of a button, with all controls and displays automatically matching the selected application.

Mix with precision
Get accurate and smooth mixing control through four high-quality, motorized, touch-sensitive, 100 mm long throw faders. Easily select tracks for editing just by touching the corresponding fader.

Adjust parameters with a twist
Control everything from panning and gain to plug-in parameters, EQ settings and more using the eight touch-sensitive rotary encoders, with instant positional feedback displayed on the high-resolution OLED displays.

View feedback in high resolution
Easily view track names/numbers, detailed metering data (from mono to 5.1 surround), parameter names/values, current automation mode and more through eight 128 x 64-pixel OLED displays. Get instant feedback about the item you're modifying the moment you move the corresponding rotary encoder.

Customize your control surface
Because Artist Series controllers are modular, you can combine them in a variety of configurations to suit your workflow. Customize your Artist Series system with up to one Artist Control, four Artist Mixes, one Artist Transport and one Artist Color for total flexibility-up to 36 faders total. Simply clip the units together to form a seamless surface-or use them separately-as each has its own Ethernet connection.
