Avid S1 EUCON Desktop Control Surface

Avid S1 EUCON Desktop Control Surface Overview With the Avid S1, you can improve your workflow by combining the better speed, visual feedback, and software integration of Avid’s high-end consoles in a compact control surface that is both feature-rich and cost-effective. Avid put sophisticated features from their remarkable full-sized consoles into S1, such as responsive, motorized, touch-sensitive faders, touch-sensitive knobs, and keys that interface with the touchscreen. S1 provides deep hands-on control over your favorite audio and video software, and when combined with the free Pro Tools | Control app for iPad, it enables streamlined, ergonomic, and intuitive touchscreen workflows, as well as S6-type metering and processing views, allowing you to navigate large sessions and achieve better-sounding mixes quickly. Whether you work in music, film, or audio post-production, the tiny, adaptable Avid S1 allows you to make the most of Pro Tools. Accelerate your music, film, or audio post-production operations with this next-generation Avid controller. Working only with a mouse and keyboard might be inconvenient for artists, producers, and engineers. Avid’s S1 provides the hands-on immediacy, speed, precision, and software integration you require to transform your creative ideas into high-quality completed products swiftly. S1 is especially beneficial to deadline-driven audio post houses, as several projects are frequently shuttled through different mix rooms. S1 delivers the hands-on audio recording, editing, and surround mixing efficiency of bigger consoles in a much smaller footprint, making it simple – and cost-effective — to equip any room in your facility. For film professionals, S1 not only makes it easier to tackle large projects, but it also helps you to execute sound editing and mixing jobs faster and more precisely than with a mouse and keyboard alone. Pro Tools control with high resolution and tight software integration. S1 is driven by EuCon, a high-speed control protocol created by Avid that allows for deep hardware/software integration and simultaneous full-touch control of numerous Avid and third-party software functions over Ethernet at 250 times the speed and eight times the precision of MIDI. EuCon intelligently identifies the application in the foreground and adjusts the high-resolution touchscreen and displays, motorized faders, and armory of controls accordingly. EuCon provides access to over a thousand Pro Tools functions, which are constantly expanding as fresh features are released. EuCon even allows you to switch between several apps and workstations with the touch of a button, providing a very smooth editing and mixing experience. High-resolution OLED panels and the free Pro Tools | Control app Many of us here use the Avid S1 control surface and like the high-resolution OLED displays. However, for even more straightforward operation, S1 interacts with the free Pro Tools | Control iPad app, which provides rapid visual feedback to improve your productivity. From track names, parameter values, and automation data to S6-style monitoring, metering, and channel processing displays, S1 provides the entire hands-on experience and immediacy of working on a large-format console in a versatile, small, and cost-effective control panel. Its dedicated monitoring view allows you to easily assign and control talkback, listenback, speaker sources, and levels directly from the surface, accelerating your recording and mixing operations. S1 even makes it simple to change your Avid controller as your requirements evolve.
