The V1-M is a powerful DAW controller that gives you tactile control of your Digital Audio Workstation helping you streamline your workflow and get your projects done faster.
Hands On Control: The V1-M has 8 channels of motorised faders, which can be expanded up to 64 channels (depending on your DAW) with the addition of optional V1-X DAW Control Expanders. This gives you plenty of control over your mix, even if you’re working on a complex project. Customizable Touchscreen: The V1-M has a large customizable touchscreen display with 5 colour coded layers of commands that can be used to control your DAW and match your specific workflow. This makes it easy to quickly access the controls you need, without having to take your eyes off the mix. TFT Display and Meter Bridge: The large TFT display and meter bridge show the current levels, pan positions, and other information. This makes it easy to see what’s going on with your mix, even if you’re not looking at the computer monitor. Integration with popular DAWs: The V1-M is compatible with a wide range of popular DAWs, including Bitwig, Cubase/Nuendo, Logic Pro X, Ableton Live, and Pro Tools. Additionally, you can run up to 3 DAWs at one time with no interruption to your workflow.
The V1-M’s motorised faders and touchscreen display make it easy to navigate through large sessions. You can quickly zoom in and out of the session, and you can easily see the levels and pan positions of your tracks with the large TFT screen and meter bridge. This allows you to use your ears for recording and mixing, not your mouse. You can use the faders, knobs, buttons and touchscreen to adjust the levels, pan positions, and other parameters of your tracks. Customizable control means you can put your most used commands right where you want them helping you create engaging content quickly and efficiently.
The V1-M can help you to stay creative. The touchscreen display and motorised faders give you a tactile experience that can help you to feel more connected to your music. The V1-M’s customizable controls also allow you to set up your controller the way that works best for you. The V1-M is expandable and flexible. Depending on your DAW, you can add up to 64 channels to your setup. This can be especially helpful when you’re working on a complex project with a lot of dialogue tracks or foley sounds, or if you’re designing lush soundscapes or creating new worlds.
Expand your V1-M to 16, 32, or even 64 channels depending on your DAW with the V1-X DAW Control Expander. Each V1-X houses eight touch-sensitive motorised channel faders with 12-bit resolution, eight dual function encoder knobs, mute, solo, select and record buttons, plus an TFT display showing channel names and different control parameters for each channel. It also includes LED level meter bridge in a robust metal casing and a second LCD display. Expandability is totally dependent on your Digital Audio Workstation. Please consult your DAW's manual to determine how many extenders your DAW allows.
