Apogee Electronics’ APOGEE CONTROL Overview There is no doubting the overwhelming strength of digital software control. But let’s be honest, sometimes a mouse and keyboard aren’t enough. For those looking for a stronger, tangible link to their production workflow, the Apogee Control is a simple desktop device that allows remote control of any parameter inside Apogee’s Control 2 program. This device has eight assignable buttons and a large control knob that gives a satisfying tactile sensation while modifying your audio interface’s parameters. If eight buttons aren’t enough for your workflow, customers report being able to store many configurations as presets—you can even integrate up to four Control devices at the same time, each with its own separate preset settings. What functions can the control handle? The Control allows for mouse-free modification of several parameters, including studio monitor selection, analog input/output adjustments, and talkback on compatible Apogee interfaces. Furthermore, the Control connects to your Mac via a single USB cable and works with a broad range of contemporary and older Apogee interfaces. Compatible with the talkback features of Control 2 software. Apogee’s Control 2 software has extensive talkback features, allowing you to provide advice and comments to your performers in the studio without leaving your control station. Add Apogee’s Control hardware to the mix for even more convenience: talkback can be activated with the push of a button, eliminating the need to switch between Control 2 software and your DAW. This function works with a range of Apogee’s current and older interfaces, automatically using your computer’s built-in mic or USB mic to preserve mic inputs on your interface. Apogee Control Features: The hardware remote controller is compatible with both contemporary and legacy USB and Thunderbolt Apogee interfaces. Experience the ease and confidence of hardware control. The Apogee Control 2 software allows for parameter control via 8 buttons and 1 big knob. Save button configurations as presets for rapid switching between different setups.
